“Sketch comedians Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Brian Posehn, and a host of other people chip in to make this audio production a much richer experience than the book will ever be. Pulling together different material that Odenkirk and Cross have worked on over the years, they enact some amusing scripts and skits that fans of their HBO series, Mr. Show, will appreciate. Including other actors they’ve worked with makes the production that much more enjoyable and creative, and the use of sound effects and music enhances the experience…This is a fun listening experience for those who enjoy the ridiculous and the absurd.”

Mr. Show fans rejoice! After all these years, Bob and David are finally back together with a collection of hilarious, never-before-seen scripts, sketches, and ideas that may have just been too good for Hollywood.

Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, creators of HBO's classic sketch comedy show Mr. Show, present to you this collection of never-before-seen scripts and ideas that Hollywood couldn't find the gumption to green-light. Simply put… Hollywood Said No! Since Mr. Show closed up shop, Bob and David have kept busy with many projects—acting in fun, successful, movies and TV shows, directing things, and complaining about stuff that didn't turn out well to anyone who would listen, and even alone, in silence, inside their own heads. Hollywood Said No! reveals the full-length, never-before-seen scripts for Bob and David Make a Movie (fleshed out with brand-new storyboards by acclaimed artist Mike Mitchell) and Hooray For America!: a satirical power-house indictment of all that you hold dear. This tome also includes a bonus section of orphaned sketch ideas from the Mr. Show days and beyond, suitable for performance by church groups that aren't all koo-koo about religion. What you are looking at online, and are about to buy, is chock-full of comic twists, turns, and maybe a few hard truths. We said "maybe," but what we mean was "probably not." Now, for the first time, take a peek at the scripts that didn't get the go-ahead and ponder a world we can only dream about…and beyond!

    A must-listen for Mr. Show fans. Even if you own the book.

    Fans of Mr. Show will be in heaven. I was surprised to find out that the readings were fully dramatized by most of the original Mr. Show cast. This is a case where listening to the audiobook may actually be better than reading the book. It's a shame these scripts were never picked up and made into movies but this is the next-best thing.
