Season 1 episodes (4)

1 The Cry of a Hungry Baby
11/3/95
Sketches: A jerk bets a group that if he eats glass, they'll become his slaves; a customer attempts to get change for a dollar at a store, resulting in an absurd chain-of-command conference call; and a close-up look at inveterate crook 'Ronnie Dobbs.'
2 What to Think
11/10/95
Despite being forced to wear a shock collar, David participates in sketches including: 'Ole Swerdlow, Folk Puppeteer,' a naked-puppet routine that never gets off the ground; and 'Golden Books for Seniors,' the perfect way to read the elderly to sleep.
3 We Regret to Inform You
11/17/95
Sketches: a high-seas gay porn film that gets re-re-edited; 'Screwballs,' a TV dating show in which the audience chooses sex partners, who are then judged bedside; 'Teen Show' ('for teens, featuring teens, and written by 40-year-old white men'); more.
4 Who Let You In?
11/24/95
Bob and David are distracted by a TV-news report that the Pope is a murder suspect and is fleeing in the Popemobile. Sketches: 'Larry,' 'Van Hammersly,' and 'Spank,' whose vocation--defecating on things--is threatened by constipation.

About this show

Prepare for comedy that is fast, funny and completely out of control! Bob Odenkirk and David Cross lead an ensemble cast in a montage of fabulously offbeat, out-of-kilter sketches in this riotous HBO comedy series.

This is one of those ingenious shows of which there are very few (IMO). Monty Python and Saturday Night Live and Mr. Show are kind of the trinity of sketch comedy on tv. If you like Python and SNL, and you've never seen Mr. Show with Bob and David, watch just one episode (pick any one), and you'll wonder why you hadn't heard about it years ago. Bonus: stellar performances from Jack Black, Sarah Silverman before they became well known.
