how about david cross focuses on better things, like getting another album out sometime in the next twenty years.
Mr Show rules! by skimn	Sep 12th, 2007 05:59:00 PM
It'll get Odenkirk away from the crappy movies he's been making.

Stoked for new Bob & Davidness.
Odenkirk's movies have been bombing hard. by El Scorcho	Sep 12th, 2007 06:39:17 PM
He should flee back to television with his tail between his legs. It will make better use of the little talent that he has.
Odenkirk + Cross = Legendary Comedy by tenaciousdrocks	Sep 12th, 2007 06:47:24 PM
el scorcho, have you not seen Mr.Show? granted, his movies have tanked but does that mean they were bad because they didn't make as much money as garbage like Transformers or another stupid comic book movie? his comedy requires a brain and that is something that most of America lacks. just because Middle America can't understand irony or satire doesnt mean its not funny. Odenkirk has more talent in his left gonad than you will ever dream of having. Maybe this could be packaged along with Flight Of The Conchords next season. maybe they can even get Troy Miller to work with them again. Mr Show: The Next Generation.

awesome by El Rilo	Sep 12th, 2007 07:16:36 PM
best news ive heard in a while...i can only dream of david cross's character landing somewhere between ronnie dobbs and tobias funke
They both hate Troy Miller by INWOsuxRED	Sep 12th, 2007 07:16:40 PM
so I doubt they will work with him again. Bob had a few show ideas that were good way back when. David is good in just about anything. Bob's was great on Mr. Show, he was good as Manson on the Ben Stiller show, and he wrote "Bad Idea Jeans" for SNL, which was funny at the time.
I also liked the two episodes of "NEXT" by INWOsuxRED	Sep 12th, 2007 07:19:28 PM
that FOX never aired.
Tim and Eric are way better than Mr. Show by DrunkenIraHayes	Sep 12th, 2007 07:47:24 PM
Mr. Show is far from being the best thing Odenkirk has ever worked on. He currently is exec. producer and occasional guest star on the funniest show on televison - Tim and Eric's Awsome Show Great Job! Why there is not a talkback about this proves that AICN is not so cool (or hip) when it comes to comedy.
Great news!! by Tal111	Sep 12th, 2007 07:51:47 PM
Let's all go beat up a hippy to celebrate!!

i watch the mr. show dvd's repeatedly...i look forward to another collaboration.
re:Odenkirk's movies have been bombing hard by damagedinc	Sep 12th, 2007 08:56:33 PM
maybe it's because "Let's Go To Prison" sucked. That was one of the most painfully awkward movies I've watched this side of "Vulgar". Points off.
and i say the above... by damagedinc	Sep 12th, 2007 08:57:21 PM
noting how totally awesome Will Arnett is. Totally not his fault.

lets go to prison had its moments unless you're some kind of homophobe.
let's go to prison... by damagedinc	Sep 12th, 2007 09:15:02 PM
saying that any movie "had its moments" is a kinder way of saying that it pretty much sucked.

COUPON: THE MOVIE... by TerraRyzing	Sep 12th, 2007 10:44:01 PM
You know you want them to make it...I loved Mr. Show. Kinda excited they're working together again, just curious if they're developing something together for other people or if it will be them in the show. Much prefer to see 'em on screen together again. Damn...Oohhh Girl...ooo woo woo woo girl...Damn...genius stuff.
They're making a little difference by Banky the Hack	Sep 12th, 2007 11:05:43 PM
A little fucking difference.

I actually liked most of Let's go to Prison by s0nicdeathmonkey	Sep 13th, 2007 01:24:48 AM
just the whole gay angle seemed forced. the stuff with the neo-nazi's and the battle between the cellmates was damn good!
I hope the new movie they mentioned has ... by ye olde shiza	Sep 13th, 2007 02:16:05 AM
A guest appearance from Mr. Belushi as a truck-stop whore, the Mulattorus, and Sen. Tankerbell. Can I get an amen?

Mr. Show: My favorite television program of alltime by Darth_Gonz	Sep 13th, 2007 04:23:43 AM
Obviously, something new in the works for HBO by Bob & David makes my pants tight, but in a strictly hetero way. Hopefully it includes Choo-Choo, the Kurkey Jerkey Dancer in some fashion, or perhaps Champion, the drinker.
Bob Odenkirk is NOTHING without David Cross by PervOmatic	Sep 13th, 2007 06:42:09 PM
Proof: http://tinyurl.com/2slpuk Everything he has done since that show has sucked hard. Most especially the Tim & Eric garbage. Notice how quickly both of those shows were shit-canned? He isn't funny. He doesn't know funny. He can't even buy funny.

It's the return of Fartin' Rudy in "Second Wind"... by BurnHollywood	Sep 13th, 2007 11:56:05 PM
...And co-written with David Milch, featuring most of the casts of "Deadwood" and "The Sopranos", killing time until their next potboiler. Sure it's a one-joke show, but when the hell has that ever held a sitcom back?
Still waiting for David Cross to be funny . . . by gruntybear	Sep 14th, 2007 09:58:20 AM
'Cuz "Arrested Development" was all kinds of ass. It's sad when one's career highpoint was a series of guest spots on "Just Shoot Me."
haha by INWOsuxRED	Sep 14th, 2007 10:17:00 AM
you watched "Just Shoot Me"
gruntybear by PVIII	Sep 14th, 2007 04:10:38 PM
still waiting for you to not to be fucking retarded. Arrested Development is clearly the best sitcom of the last 10 years.
pervomatic by olson71	Sep 14th, 2007 06:24:54 PM
Would you say he can't give funny, can't even buy funny, and just doesn't get funny?
Bullshit, gruntybear by azmodien	Sep 14th, 2007 10:08:30 PM
Cross is one of the top 3 stand up comedians working right now, maybe THE best. Time for another album.
David Cross by birdybirdmanreturns	Sep 16th, 2007 04:23:34 AM
IN MY OPINION:The first time I ever saw a David Cross standup special was around the age of 13. His riffs in pre-9/11 late Clinton-era politics such as assisted suicide, organ donations and marijuana were very funny. This was back when he and Bob were firmly behind the reigns of Mr. Show, driving it on an uneven path into the Comedy hall of fame. This was good stuff. Unfortunately after the slight resurgence of conservatism in post 9/11 America, Cross became extremely cynical. His string of creative production credits expanded and revealed occasional nuggets of genius, as well as an increasingly apparent over-reliance on the lazier side of stoner -humor placing him down among the B-ranks with the likes of David Arquette and Sarah Silverman rather than propelling him to the ranks of those keeping the genre piping hot on Adult Swim (or a good episode of South Park). One of Cross's most appealing attributes back in the late 90s was the fact that he was still on the slightly vocal side of laid-back. Over the year this attribute seems to have reversed itself, with relaxed nature eroding down to next to nothing with Cross's humor becoming jaded and wholeheartedly petty when it comes to getting behind actual "causes" (A rambling open-letter to Larry 'The Cable Guy' written by Cross contains little humor and many accusations). Of course Larry is a hack, but attempting to mobilize against him, taking an ideological stance against him, seems like holding onto unnecessary stress for everyone. Can you really get that angry about the socioeconomic motivations behind Delta Force? That it will sell well in middle America and Wal-Mart? These didn't used to strike me as things that a comedian like Cross would spend time worrying about, now I can see him losing sleep over it. Yes, Toby Keith is a deushbag, but it's still lazier to make fun of him than to come up with stuff as good as he did back when I was 13.
his fued with Belushi is funny by INWOsuxRED	Sep 16th, 2007 11:14:31 AM
ever seen the video where he gets up on stage with him? Good stuff.
