Summary: NO COMPLAINTS HERE.
Review: Yes, believe everything you've read... it's all true. Mr. Show is the thinking-person's sketch comedy show. Because the humor works on so many levels, and the structure of the show is completely off-the-wall, these discs will stand up to repeated viewings for years to come (much like the Simpsons have).Now for the complaint: I was disappointed to see that you can't skip between scenes within each episode. Sometimes I just need an F.F. Woodycooks fix... RIGHT NOW! A scene selection guide (like the Monty Python DVD's) would be helpful on future sets. Notice that this is nit-picking not even worthy of a fraction of a star. I'm ashamed that I even mentioned it. Mr. Show for Homeland Security Director!!

Summary: AWESOME
Review: I almost hit the roof when i found out that this was coming out. Mr. Show is one of the best shows in the world. It is on par with shows like Upright Citizens Brigade. It is clever sketch comedy that requires a certain intellegence to laugh at. If you enjoy shows like Saturday Night Live i recommend staying away from this show. It is entirley too hard to explain but have skits like the talking junkie, a joke on mr. ed, and other things like that. The dvd is awesome and has commentary on every episode. I have waited for a dvd like this for ages. Anyone who likes intellegent sketch comedy and a lot of laughs i recommend getting this dvd. Now when are they gonna do this for Upright Citizens Brigade.

Summary: Incredible. All fans of comedy must get this.
Review: First off, its important to note that HBO didn't cancel this series, Bob and David were simply getting worn out, as producing Mr. Show and maintaining a high quality level took far too much energy and effort. They wanted to move on to other things (which they have, thankfully), and that's just the way it is. Luckily their fine work isn't just going to whither away to be forgotten thanks to this dvd set and the one to come. I really feel sorry for people who don't "get" programs like UCB, The State, Kids in the Hall, Get a Life, and Monty Python because Mr. Show is definetly going to go right over your head. For those of us who appreciate this twisted, intelligent type of humor, the collection is a gift from the gods. You can now watch 2 full seasons and share the best parts with all your friends. I get a warm feeling inside knowing I can play Fuzz: The Musical, Pit Pat, The Change for A Dollar sketch, and all the other classics over and over again at my leisure. Don't pass this great deal up, you definetly will not regret spending your hard earned cash on some pure comedy gold.

Summary: Wonderful Comedy!
Review: An irreverent sketch comedy masterpiece, the 2 guys, guests, cast members and writers perform smooth and sometimes bumpy skits that flow from one to another with complete humor and a refreshing dysfunctional, no holes barred approach. Upon first watch laughs are guaranteed! This comedy is unique as it rips apart mostly American Society in all matters and makes you say "God these guys are hilarious".

Summary: Great expectations... but kinda l[sad].
Review: I had never seen Mr. Show during its original run, ... and couldn't wait to get the DVD. Man, were we disappointed. There are glimpses of the greatness of, say, Monty Python, SCTV and Kids in the Hall, but more often than not the sketches are... kinda [sad]. And like SNL (during the "bad years") many sketches don't know when to stop and run out of steam before the creative and surreal transition to the next one. No doubt Cross and Oderkirk are talented, but--at least in the first 3 shows that we watched--you have to wade through lots of cringe-inducing mediocrity for the few genuinely out-loud laughs.

Summary: Y'all are brutalizin' yourselves..
Review: ... if you don't buy the whole set. Sketch comedy tends to age poorly, but Mr.Show hold up pretty well. This is smart, incisive comedy, full of nifty pop culture allusions. "Getting" those allusions is a fun way to boost your self-esteem. The third season is my personal favorite, but, again, you should get 'em all. Don't be cheap!

Summary: Pure Hilarity!
Review: "Mr. Show" is without a doubt the funniest sketch comedy show I have ever seen. It works so good because Bob is a complete unknown to nearly everybody, and David is that guy that some people say "hey... I think I've seen him somewhere before. Who is he?" The writing is brilliant and the acting is perfect for the show. They intentionally use poor acting in certain instances to make a funny sketch even funnier. Plus, the "low brow" or dirty jokes in the show are a riot because they touch on a lot of subjects everyone else it afraid to poke fun at. If you don't think this show is hilarious, you either have no brain at all, are offended by everything, or consider your two favorite comedians to be Robin Williams and Rosie O'Donnell.

Summary: Having this is close fun like amusement ride!
Review: In the past, I watch Mr. Show with Bob and David for late night laugh! The show is being funny with joke and joke and joke! Think of something funny - mulitplication of 1000! David is balding without the aid of wig and sometimes has a wig to cover baldness. Bob acts a police man to arrest any troublers, but with great comedy! Buy this DVD not for drama. The comedy is sole and holy with the shrine of comedy-legend Kedsie. So, buy this to watch for much laughing and smiles. I pray you much sugar taste and happy show.
