Mr. Show with Bob and David: Genius or Overrated?

AT&T (HBO, TBS etc.) funds OANN, so it's not much different elsewhere.

The Simpsons killed democracy

I mean...it's legit to boycott Fox, but they're Disney now, and Fox News is a completely separate entity at this point. So Murdoch isn't gonna feel your sting, I'm afraid.

The regular Fox TV network isn't with Disney, who couldn't buy them because they already own ABC.

'80s-->'90s Fox was wild: Simpsons; Married...With Children; 21 Jump St.; In Living Color; Martin; 90210

Cops; America's Most Wanted

Werewolf

Herman's Head

The greatest show ever:

X Files

Get a Life!

Action, with Jay Mohr.

lol that it took this long

NEW: Jay Johnston — of Mr. Show, Arrested Development, The Sarah Silverman Show, Bob's Burger's, and Anchorman fame — has been arrested in connection with the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. https://t.co/HdHbVwISOk

Talk about something not being on your bingo card (or at least, not before Jan. 6). I can only imagine how I would have reacted to this prediction back in the late '90s.

How could you think that this was a coup??!!

Idiot!

Not just famous, respected actor! Mr. Show begot Emmy nominations, federal indictments, and the voice of Spongebob.

Not sure which part of “Mr. Show actor arrested in coup attempt by President Donald Trump, who was defeated by Joe Biden” would have surprised me most back then

THR has obtained a photo of Jay Johnston from a party last October in which he appeared to be dressed as the so-called "Qanon Shaman," who previously pled guilty to storming the Capitol on Jan. 6

Odenkirk's range is insane. he was so good playing a ditzy hunk lawyer on Seinfeld. and then a porn star on Curb. actually I really admire how a dude who's so naturally funny was willing to be the straight man so often.

not a lot of evidence these days that the arc of the universe bends towards justice, but Bob Odenkirk got to star in a prestige drama where he could show off his full range, develop it further, and get numerous accolades for it.

he also got to be on Dr. Katz a couple times

xp and he got to cheat death recently.

and got to make his own John Wick movie

Nobody was so much fun

Meanwhile, David Cross just gets to sit around collecting Alvin and the Chipmunk movie residuals while hoping no one brings up the fact that he used to be best friends with Gavin McInnes.

it's pretty wild to imagine that one of the greatest TV dramas ever made was nearly forced to just end on a massive cliffhanger because one of the Mr. Show guys had a heart attack

They could have just replaced Bob with David. No one would have noticed.

Good find, somebody:

haha, i'm not much of a podcast listener but i just skipped to the middle to get the gist of it and bob was sharing his theory (or really, just the facts) that when a murder takes place on a tv show or movie, that murder actually happened in real life
