[Addressing the Clysdale horse representing Budweiser:]
BOB: "My opponent remains silent on this issue because HE HAS BLINDERS ON!"

This ad is one of the funniest examples of selling out that I've seen in awhile. And yes, he gets funnier the louder his voice gets.

I saw one of these ads at a bar two or three weeks ago. Me and another Mr. Show loving fan both immediately ran to each other to ask if the other had caught it. I didn't get to hear what he was saying but...fuck it, let the man get paid.

it's too bad. i haven't seen much mr. show, but i have seen some of the dvds of the (FUCKING EXECRABLE) ben stiller show, and he was always the secret weapon there.

Ben Stiller Show kicked ass

Are we going to have another Mr. Show/Ben Stiller Show war? (Because if so, the latter, easy.)

Good for him, it's criminal that David Cross gets the kind of recognition he does when his more talented partner is mostly ignored.

xpost: lunacy. well, i don't know, mr. show might very well be worse.

I've never seen Mr. Show but these commercials are dumb. I had no idea the "candidate" was actually supposed to be anything other than some lame commercial actor. I don't feel compelled to investigate further. His voice grates.

yeah, i was at this bbq place down the road "flirting" with this redhead bbq beyonce type (my own version of jessdrama, only i'm not gonna try to plant one on her cuz i try not to take my cues from corey haim in lucas), and i saw odenkirk on tv and i thought 'wait - which mr. show was this?' only it kept flipping back to the show that was actually on so i accused the girl of changing the channel only she didn't why because it was a commercial. i am going to die alone.

mr. show is obviously better than the ben stiller show, and anyways, odenkirk was born in my hometown, its not a coincidence.

best standup routine ever on comedy central: bob odenkirk doing jokes stolen from bazooka joe comics, then doing his one-man show of abraham lincoln: "what the hell have I been drinking...oh my god. it's turpentine."

Wonder if he’ll ever do standup again

― calstars, Monday, 18 June 2018 14:36 (five years ago) link

when did he last do it, December?

he's part of a live tour this summer.

two years pass...

I *just* realized he has an incredibly obscure extra part in Waiting For Guffman. Non-speaking, just a quick pan-by and he's in heavy makeup/costume.

I guess his scene ended up on the cutting room floor:

That’s not on the DVD is it? Haven’t watched it in ages.

It's not. Supposedly came from a VHS of the workprint that the uploader obtained somehow.
