5 of the Funniest Mr. Show Sketches
In today's interview, Tim and Eric, creators of Adult Swim's first live-action sketch show, acknowledge that their new comic creation is inspired by the HBO comedy series Mr. Show. With a number of great sketch shows hitting the air that seem to owe something to Bob Odenkirk and David Cross's inspired weirdness (Aziz Ansari's Human Giant and Sarah Silverman's new "sitcom" both come to mind), we thought it was time to take a look back at five of our favorite Mr. Show sketches.

GloboChem
Highlight:Probably when Odenkirk tells a female GloboChem employee who objects to the swearing that he, "doesn't come down to where you work and slap the dick out of your mouth."

Life Boat
Highlight:Or maybe we're just laughing at lines like, "Before I die, I'm gonna' fuck a fish" and "Life is precious. And God. And the Bible"
Believe what you want, but it's The Pre-Taped Call-In Show, not the American Flag Sketch which I've probably linked everyone I know to at least twice by now. It helps that I know a lot of philosophy students, who are easily amused by recurrence.
ReplyMr. Show: The greatest sketch show ever
Replyi think tim and eric can go eat a dick, i also think(sadly) they would enjoy eating dick.
Replyseriously the channel is CARTOON network. stop the s**tty live action stuff(see your comments on sigmund the sea monster, in the shows created while on acid article.)
It makes no sense that you have a top Mr. Show Sketch list and you call Mary Lynn Rajskub's appearance a cameo. Watch the show more, eh?
