Summary: Everything you wanted to know and more.
Review: Naomi Odenkirk (wife of Bob) has gone above and beyond with this all-encompassing look at one of the smartest and funniest shows ever to hit the airwaves. Not only does she offer background on David Cross and Bob Odenkirk, she gives in-depth profiles of other cast members as well as the writers. And if you've ever seen Mr. Show you know how important (and brilliant) the writing was. She even goes into detail about the scene that spawned Mr. Show, which until now has gone unreported for the most part. Lastly, the book's episode-by-episode breakdown offers recaps of all the scenes as well as notes, trivia and anecdotes from the cast and crew about each episode. Quite simply, there's absolutely nothing left out. If you like Mr. Show, you need this book.

Summary: Insider's guide to the legendary comedy series
Review: When I saw that this book was written by Bob Odenkirk's wife I thought uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Fortunately, Bob Odenkirk married somebody who's put together an entertaining and highly informative chronicle of the brilliant, daring four-year HBO series that (as it freely acknowledges) is America's answer to "Monty Python" and "SCTV." With a loyal Mr. Show cult firmly in place and the first two seasons now out on DVD, this book is very welcome to those of us who are just catching up on our Bob and David history. While not dismissing the discontents expressed by one of the other reviewers here, I think the typos and somewhat unconventional organization of the book are attributable to this being a self-published effort and thus not as slicked up (or dumbed down) as the usual product of corporate publishing. If you're into the true Mr. Show groove, this will probably make you love it more.
