Mr. Show's pre-taped call-in show is simply the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I've watched it about six times in the last 24 hours and it just seems to get funnier every time. I found it on this so-so list of 50 greatest comedy sketches ever -- an entertaining list to work your way through, but it included way too many things that weren't actually that funny and was missing some obvious choices (perhaps because they weren't on youtube). I did end up watching some more Mr. Show and David Cross stuff on youtube. Here's one sequence especially for E and anyone else with strong feelings about condiments: 1, 2, 3. And here's some random David Cross talking about heaven and breakfast.
