Really only worth it if you’re a Bob and David die-hard like I am. I think the first script, Bob and David Make a Movie, kind of loses steam after the first 15 or so pages, although I really do like their Hooray for America script.

Yeah. Just no. Tried this one thinking it would be a great lighthearted audiobook for a road trip. God was I wrong. I couldn't get past the first "script" after an hour or so of tortured listening. I beg anyone I like to run, screaming, from this thing.

Bob is so, so great. You need to experience this as an audiobook. The full cast recording is amazing.

This book is a collection of unproduced screen plays. The audio book is very neat in that Bob Odenkirk and David Cross act out the screen plays with others.

Firstly, I ordered this used from Amazon and was pleasantly surprised to see that it was one of the signed copies! Very very cool. Anyways, there’s a reason these scripts didn’t get made. They aren’t the crop’s cream, but they’re delightful and refreshing for hungry fans. Regardless of how convoluted and weird some of this stuff is, I would sell a toe to have seen Hooray for America live on stage. Even when these guys miss, it’s still a hit.

I don't know... I guess I'm glad Hollywood said, "No." It was moderately entertaining but more than that it was crass and idiotic.

A big Mr. Show fan, I overall enjoyed the book at a three-star level, but a couple of really inspired jokes and ideas elevated it .

These scripts seemed really lazy to me, and kept me wondering, "are these just that bad? Are Bob & David just such endearing performers that they would've carried these? Maybe they improvise a lot in all their sketches? Am I maybe not the Mr. show fan I thought I was?"

It was a roller coaster of existential crises, but rarely did I laugh. Maybe I'm just a shitty Hollywood type. Either way, I would've preferred an annotated version, with more thoughts and insights. But maybe that's another book entirely.

I really enjoyed the first part of the book, the script about how to get a movie made. It was laugh out loud funny with a hilarious take on a DMV style line to make a movie and all the elements that are needed. Very very funny and I want to watch this movie :)

The second part just lost me. I could not get into any of the other scripts/scenes as much as the first.

LOVED IT. Man, I miss that show. Some of the skits are really obvious why they were cut, but the two scripts are pretty good. Such a shame.
