@tredlow i do live in that world, 90% of actual people i see look like mr. show characters. mr. show has ruined my outlook on life in the most wonderful way!
@CircleBastiat Haha, you're completely write about women being unfunny, but I do admit that she's good in this scene, but I would rather hear more from David. But yeah, in almost all cases, women suck at comedy, amongst many other things.
I am a huge fan of Mr. Show, and I'm also a former TV News reporter. I can attest that this parody is right on the money. Most news programs keep the same anchors for YEARS because demographics show that ratings are high when people are familiar with the anchors. Mr. Show is so genius. This sketch so like "60 Minutes." Andy Rooney, Mike Wallace, and Don Hewitt are all like 86. WTF?!
@deathtoviacom I hardly watch any television these days , and this is one of the reasons why , as much as there are some news anchors here at home that I liked , most of these people have been anchoring the local news for about 20 years , leaving no room for any newcomers or veteran reporters to replace them . There has been exceptions , but mainly in the national news front .
Hilarious.

@CircleBastiat Horse shit, Jill's awesome in every sketch she's in. Not every woman on Mr. Show is funny, but Jill's great.

I found it odd that one of the, if not the worst sketch on Mr. Show followed this. This, Harrison versus Greeley and Titannica are my personal faves.

I want to kidnap David Cross when he gets older and force him to adopted me as his grandson. He's so freaking adorable in his senility.

Totally.
I'm waiting for Mike Wallace to one day say, "No more news!"
theblingmeister78 3 years ago 18
Oh, but Mike Wallace is such an awesomely cussed so-and-so, he'll never go out like that. He's nowhere near senile.
Andy Rooney, OTOH...
