I just ordered it on Amazon for $45.

I’m a big fan of David Cross, so I figured I would grab Mr. Show to compliment Arrested Development.

Mr Show is like Saturday Night Live, except funny. And unedited, as it originally aired on HBO.

I just noticed the boxed set of the entire three series run is now available on Amazon.

I’m not a big TV guy at all, but this entire series is brilliant. Every character is interesting, every story line is entertaining while being somewhat realistic.

It’s a David Cross project, who also did Mr Show, a sketch comedy show on HBO. He plays an out of work psychiatrist, and likely closeted homosexual.

The show chronicles a wealthy family that loses most of their wealth when the head of the family is arrested for a laundry list of white collar crimes.

I’ve watched this series all the way through at least 4 or 5 times, it has an amazing rewatch factor. The writing is great, and the actors do an amazing job of character development. Aside from David Cross, it features Michael Cera of Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist, and Portia De Rossi, Ellen’s wife.

It’s a relatively quick watch, at only three seasons. I highly suggest you check it out. It’s honestly one of the best sitcoms I’ve ever seen.
