Dr Katz, was that show great or what

yeah i got that same vibe, esp from the katz/ben dynamic & katzs kinda pathetic romantic efforts; i think comedies that can really pull off that kind of thing deserve a lot more respect than they get (sez biggest seinfeld fan ever)

best guest - dom irrera

doctor? i bought you a figurine.

Why wasn't this in the sitcom tourney?

best guest - dom irrera
otm so reliable. andy kindler had a dud appearance or two that threw off his average

Re: comparisons to Family Guy:

the voice of Ben on Dr. Katz = the voice of Carl on Family Guy (the Mini-Mart gas station attendant)

http://familyguy.wikia.com/wiki/H._Jon_Benjamin

and Laura = Laura Silverman, Sarah's older sister! WTF!

ugh. do not compare to family guy plz

I know! They did! (points at earlier posts)

So I long held it at an article of faith that Dr Katz was better than Home Movies, but over the past couple years I have faced the truth: in a lot of ways, Home Movies is better. It's still not Dr Katz, though.

Two episodes I need to dig out of the DVD set: the one where Ben's mother visits for Thanksgiving, and the one where Ben thinks Dr Katz is an alcoholic.

i just watched that one. its hilarious.

Science Court, in its initial incarnation, was the best of the bunch.

New show from Loren Bouchard. "Bob's Burgers"

Has H. Jon Benjamin, Kristen Schaal, Eugene Mirman, a shitload more alt/UCB-type comics.

I liked it, but found the 2nd ep much better than the first.

Anyone get this? Very folks ever seemed to see it in the UK but the whole thing was on Paramount Comedy back in the late 90s. I HAVE to get this.

Very *few* i should say.

This is one of the best shows ever

i adore this show and jonathan katz.

he has a new (or new to me) podcast called "hey, we're back" that i'm going to check out over the weekend. also going to see if i can track down the dr. katz podcast -- looks like it might be in youtube (which is where you can also find almost all of the original TV show episodes)

nice to see nabisco being otm by repping for home movies upthread, i adore it too
