Summary: Mr. Show Has A Television Show for DVD
Review: Well finally make it happen! Mr. Show becomes a DVD, to show you all of its episodes. First Season, also Second. All of great skits that one has become to love have on this DVD.

For those who have not enjoy Mr. Show, contain much jokes. It have itself some of the funnier jokes on television in many decades. Take yourself for example the poop jokes. Take it a funny time for TWO!

Some much people are to have enjoy Mr. Show. I take sometime an episode to myself for a watch episode. Makes itself one for a laugh, especially for me. That makes a good deal for price, especially with two episode.

Two season? Be forget it for a great deal of itself.

Thanks.

Summary: You Must Have This
Review: Mr. Show, along with Kids in the Hall, Python & and early Simpsons, stands as some of the funniest stuff I've ever seen on the talking picture tube. Great to have it preserved on the new shiney video records! God bless America and God bless Bob & David. These two seasons are the best (though I recommend the collections to come, as well).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bob and David were meant to roam free, HBO!!
Review: There seemed to be some vacillating on the part of HBO for a while, as they wanted this DVD release to coincide with the Run Ronnie Run film. It seems that New Line still can't make up their mind whether or not they want to release the film. I'd rather they release Ronnie on video than not at all, but with indecision lies hope perhaps? Anyway, the Mr. Show DVDs are ready to be shipped, thousands of them anxiously wait us in a mysterious warehouse somewhere. Hopefully HBO really has made up it's mind and will release these in June. Odd though, that there's no graphic of the DVD cover design yet.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a comedy classic....
Review: Mr. Show is, by far, one of the funniest sketch comedy shows EVER. It's a shame HBO held up the release of these episodes for this long. My favorite sketches include "Dualing Megaphone Singers" and "Performance Artist has trouble deficating on flag"

Truly comedic geniuses destined to become classics.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FOR THOSE WHO ARE OUTSIDE THE MAINSTREAM
Review: I REMEMBER WATCHING MR SHOW WITH BOB AND DAVID WHEN I WAS JUST 12 OR 13. I REMEMBER THINKING IT WAS THE FUNNIEST AND GREATEST SHOW EVER. THIS SHOW CAME OUT WHEN HBO TOOK GREAT RISKS IN COMEDY: THE LARRY SANDERS SHOW, DREAM ON, TRACEY ULLMAN TAKES ON. BUT THIS SHOW IS SOOOOO MUCH MORE THAN JUST COMEDY, IT'S COMEDY SOOOO ORIGINAL THAT IT MAKES YOU ALMOST ENVY IT. BUT BEWARE SITCOM WATCHERS!!! IN FACT THOSE WHO WATCH SITCOMS NEEDN'T BOTHER BECAUSE THEY REALLY DON'T DESERVE TO EVEN HEAR ITS THEME MUSIC!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally!!
Review: I have most of the episodes of Mr. Show on VHS but now, finally, I'll have a high-quality copy to keep forever.

Mr. Show was/is one of the smartest comedy shows ever written for television. HBO has even been showing reruns of it recently. BTW, Mr. Show was not cancelled by HBO- rumor has it that it was turned down by Bob and Dave because they didn't think they had the energy to do it again with the same quality of the previous years, and they wanted to move on to other things.

For those of you who don't know it, Jack Black (High Fidelity) was a frequent cast member and was eventually given his own show spawned off Mr Show (Tenacious D). Apparently, there's a movie that Bob and Dave wrote and produced, based on a character from the series, that hasn't yet seen the light of day.

This will great addition to your collection if you are a true fan of comedy...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not the best sketch show ever
Review: I like the show, but the hyperbole in the reviews is over the top. It's better than SNL, but not as good as Kids In The Hall. David Cross is great, Bob Odenkirk is mediocre. The writing is top-notch.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ne Plus Ultra of Sketch Comedy
Review: Fresh, Original, Irreverent, [Very Funny]! IMHO, it surpasses even Monty Python! Why HBO cancelled Mr. Show is impossible to understand. Given time, it's popularity would have snowballed. Can't wait for the DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it's a shame...
Review: What the heck was HBO thinking when they cancelled this show? I understand mediocrity makes money, but couldn't they bend the rules just once. I'm disheartened and disgusted, but not surprised.

This show is the funniest I've ever seen. No other show or movie compares. Esoteric humor that will make you guffaw until the majority of people in the room wryly ask you to change the channel.

If you've ever been in a Starbucks just to [use the restroom] you may enjoy this DVD set.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Monkeys have officially flown out of my nether region!!
Review: It has finally happened. The greatest sketch comedy that has ever been skribbled on a piece of paper is finally being released on dvd. IF you have a true respect for comedy (ex. the family guy, simpsons, get a life, tv funhouse), than this is a must have for your collection. If you dont need to change your pants after watching Mr Show, than you can go back to watching full house re-runs or when animals attack clowns because you dont deserve to watch it.
