Full Product DetailsEditorial Reviews
Bob Odenkirk and David Cross started out the first episode of their HBO comedy show with the self-mocking claim that they were fulfilling America’s demand for "a sketch show hosted by two people we’ve never seen before." Indeed, they met the need for sharp satire with style, mocking every segment of society without fear of political correctness or censorship. So, if Bob and David are still two people you’ve never seen before, meet them now. In Seasons 1 and 2, the duo introduced such anarchic concepts as rap musicals without rap and Jesus’ mysterious 13th apostle. Here they prove the third time’s a charm. Nay, a scream. From the moment they open Season 3's ten episodes by claiming they’re going to try and inspire some hate mail from African Americans by singing, "You’re Welcome" (for ending slavery), anything and everyone is fair game. Christmas is ruined when Bob and Dave set Santa free from 500 years of ho-ho-ho oppression. You’ll meet separated conjoined twins Ned and Ted -- the latter of whom shocks his brother with the news that he’s getting reattached to someone he met at a company picnic’s three-legged race -- and frozen-confection entrepreneurs Howard Benjamin and Frank Gerard III, who "started our ice cream company with a simple theory: There’s money to be made in ice cream" and honor the last living Native American with their new flavor, Last Indian Doodle Snicker. This two-disc set also includes commentary on each episode by Bob, David, and many of the show’s guests; footage of the comics at the 1997 U.S. Comedy Arts Festival; and the instrumental score from their mock musical "Drugachusettes." By the time you get to these, you’ll know Bob and David, but that probably won’t stop you at times from sitting there shaking your head in disbelief, saying to yourself, "Who are these guys?"
