W/ Bob and David

Some smart sketches, other sketches done before but better in other places. I unfortunately did not laugh out loud once. In the making of you can see when there's pitching, there are no real hits... You might get a chuckle out of one of the many people in the room but that's about it.

Something was off with the acting and delivery. Too much time between each other's lines so that the conversations seemed overly unnatural.

I grew up loving Mr. Show and so it is with a heavy heart I write this review. Bob and David are hilarious, full stop. they understand what comedy is and how it should be written. I do not offend easily usually but I just cant stand for what is presented here. I am a Trans* woman and I in no way speak for the entire community but of the three episodes I've seen thus far two of them take unnecessary, cheap and not-funny pop shots at the trans community. There is nothing about David being a trans woman making commentary on sports at the end of an, otherwise very funny skit, that makes it anymore funny...at all! It is lazy writing and I think they will regret it in the not too distant future. I think we are very close to this kind of half understood comedy being seen exactly as the racist/homophobic comedy of decades past. I'm sorry, you can address any topic in a comical way BUT when you address it without being fluent on it, you open yourself up for (DESERVED) criticism. Comedy is supposed to challenge ideas and be inflammatory to get people to think but I would ask that people consider the people whom they are tearing into before writing their material. When comedy hurts people and makes no valid points or statements...it's just sophomoric garbage and if your laughing at it...then you are what is wrong with the world. :(

This is modeled after the 1970s comic British TV shows. And in 2019 the 1970s British TV shows still look good. This looks bad. Forced. The camera image quality has gone up, the budget has gone up, everything else is down the toilet.

A sequel / continuations of 1995's Mr. Show, w/Bob and David picks up where the sketch series left off, more sketches, but now with slightly older actors. Its only 4 episodes, and honestly doesn't bring much the original didn't. Like its okay, but only had a couple laugh out loud moments, otherwise was mostly vague commentary guised as meh comedy. There's also an hour long "behind the scenes / making of" episode which is as long as half of the series itself. If you liked the original definitely give this a watch, if you haven't seen the original, just watch that.

I understand that Better Call Saul is still airing so Bob doesn't really have time to focus on anything else, but if they do find some they should really produce more seasons of this, it's a great show!!!
