Mr Show - Senator Tankerbell (season 1)

[birjuseht]

Ah Georgia!

[everybodywangchung]

If I had to complain about Mr. Show, it would be that Senator Tankerbell was under-utilized.

"It's like a pioneer porn shop in here!"

[DrDreamPop]

[TomKennyIsLovely]

"Precious old man."

[Kingpinz0r]

ol' limber legs went walkin' down to old millers creek and when he saw that big ol' cow he jumped back in the sink, oohhh limber legs where youuu goin tooo

i fail to see how this makes sense at all. but i fucking love ole swirdlow

[TP2010]

You're watching the What to Think Network. 

[claretohere]

It's titillatin' and confusin'!

[tdelamont]

I got a naked puppet doin' a lewd, lacivious fandango on the lap of a full-grown man...

[bluenoserr]

One of my favourite comedy sketches of all time. Great stuff!

[bluenoserr]

Oh geez this is so frickin brilliant and hilarious!

[90eaw]

"Yes swir." " Busier than a high priced whore at an e-lectronics convention."

[mseales]

"Ohwhats funding issue."

[tombot5000]

3:54 mistah libah legs aint wearin no clothes!

[pjbrubak]

Mah leh ha lelly heeeeeee!!

[graaar]

Wow, I sincerely hope you're not breeding. You realize that this is a comedy sketch from the nineties and that.... Oh nevermind. Don't strain yourself trying to read this.

[TomKennyIsLovely]

i really wasn't expecting that old man asleep at the end!

these guys are so talented :D

[nogoodbastid]

i am pretty sure tankerbell is based on former alabama senator howell heflin. he had the same southern drawl as well as the bizarre speech impediment like "feels even betto"

[graaar]

In the Mr. Show DVD comments they say he's a composite character- I've no doubt he was one of the influences :)

[nogoodbastid]

true. but the impersonation itself is straight up heflin. i imagine bob heard it during the whole anita hill situation.

[obeygnt]

Its like a pioneer porn shop in here! Shut it down!

[troyez]

I find myself to be aroused and titillated by this!

[Sviolinist]

@troyez I damn near busted a gut after I heard that aroused and titillated line.

[redmartian]

Bob and David! Awesome Show! Great job!

[BGreenspan]

wtf? bob and david are so much better than tim & eric, dont even try 2 make a comparison

[redmartian]

If Bob and David were so good, then why isn't Mr. Show still around?  Tim and Eric is the mind of the new Obama generation. Bob and David are like soooo yesterday.

[BGreenspan]

doesnt mean it's not good

i'm sure that many people agree that Arrested Development was the greatest show known to man (it was)... just because it isn't around anymore doesn''t make it "so yesterday," it has nothing to do with being so good

better example... George Carlin v. Dane Cook... Carlin being Mr. Show and Cook being Tim & Eric

[msininism]

i think redmartian was just joking

[TheMississippian]

I fail to see how George Carlin and Dane Cook would ever be in the same catagory.

[Zalman1337]

Dane Cook would have to die.

[BGreenspan]

and what does Obama have 2 do w/ it?

[BTThrash]

ahahaha, the a cappella version of Tommy.

[aaronsegura]

No! That's my limberlegs!

[ethansloan]

my grandpa used to tell me the same story about the dick in the holes.

[ortonWWEchamp]

A shocking collar? Ouch.

[ragdemus]

these guys are genius of comedy...

[kidlucius]

That baseball sketch looked DAMN GOOD.

[blookup]

Odenkirk is doing a perfect rendition of Jesse Helms. racist republican senator from the shallow minded cia corporate pool known as north carolina.

[sllldllld]

You ass hole North Carolina is split about 50-50 democrat/republican just because we had Jesse Helms the supreme dick racist does not mean that we are a shallow minded group of people. Charlotte's schools come 4th in the nation Charlotte-Mecklengburg is the largest school system in the country and besides among democrats here we call Jesse Helms the state lizard. Even before the Civil War there has been a very strong reform/liberal element. So shut the fuck up.

[Dimebag556]

shut your goddamn mouth you american pig piece of shit

[AcademyofLagado]

The Government is DEFINITELY NOT an example of the people.

So, let's not get too angry. Just don't take the so-called representation of the people so seriously.

[Trig242]

"I wish I could be everywhere where people are doing owarht!"

[lottiestar]

hahaa the old man asleep at the end!

i really wasnt expecting that

[bcbcbcbudsbudsbuds]

[PerennialLucidity]

[Stillwater100]

Gentlemen, I propose that this art funding is like a milking machine, and unless we shut it down it's gonna rip our dicks right off!!!

[slippereal]

[screwuguysgoinghome]

[Crisz138]

It's like a pioneer porn shop in here!

[tommytimp]

Old Limber Legs went walkin'...

[analogdharma]

tankerbell has the best voice ever

[thebigsloppy]

"It's like a pioneer porn shop over here!" One of the best comedies ever on television ...

[mulattoman]

nice reference to the farmhouse musical!
