Their show meant a lot to me; it was Monty Python to American late teens/early 20s, rather than Brits. Their use of language is astounding, light years ahead of all other sketch comedy of the last 20 years (yes, Kids in the Hall), and their social commentary holds up remarkably well 10 years after it first aired.
In the words of the Coupon: The Movie testimonial...I SAW THE SHIT OUT OF IT!
tears while watching. The DVD's hold up, still funny.
In fact, I think it's the only TV series that I own on DVD.
i need to cop dvds.
I had it copied from you tube and everything!
Funny as shit, I'll do another fav.
Mr. Show was killing it!
I must admit I've only watched a few episodes of Mr. Show, but...
...really?!?!
hells yea
yeah you make a good point, Monty Python is the traditional king of seguing
but I feel Mr show takes a slighty different approach to the whole seguing concept and is generally more consistent. Mind you I haven't sat down and watched MP for quite some time. I should really get that box set.
"cause life is precious, and god, and the bible"
titled, "What does the average Soul Strutter Look like".
This was my idea of what the average "Waxidermist"
looks and acts like.
Electric tie rack my baby loves it, racking up electric ties!
Fuck! This little motherfucker's tasty!
And that's how the race was won
Oh, yeah, cause Indiana's hot all year 'round
Never trust a man what's made outta gas
If you wanted to talk about pet care, you should have called two weeks ago when our show on racism was airing
"and that's when lincoln said 'don't diss my homies'"
"First of all, Mr. Fast horse comes out of his gate real slow-like, not at all like his name"
"Bringing up the rear...Old Felcher"
Don't remember the names, the two guys who sang acapella through megaphones that had a tour where they'd invent things then sing a song about the invention...
Guessing this might be the same hamburger commercial that 'it's so good, it's fucking great!' comes from?
Yes! Monsters of Megaphone!
Yes! Globochem commercials!
"Where'd all the bags go?"
"In the Bag Hutch"
"No shit."
"Bibley! The little Bible and his undersea adventures."
In addition to the segues, all of the stuff where the audience was worked into the show or in the shots was always a cool thing for me too.
You are a tool.
