There's a nuance and depth to his acting here... that elevates things to a new plane of quality. Nov 13, 2015 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Liz Shannon Miller indieWire Top Critic W/Bob and David is similar enough in tone that fans of the original can breathe a sigh of relief, but different enough that newcomers shouldn't feel compelled to binge on the old episodes as some kind of research to enjoy the sketches on offer. Nov 13, 2015 | Full Review… Sarah Rodman Boston Globe Top Critic People found Mr. Show, and people will find With Bob and David. And people will laugh. Nov 11, 2015 | Full Review… Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Top Critic The team is as funny, outrageous, and controversial as ever. Nov 10, 2015 | Full Review… Tirdad Derakhshani Philadelphia Inquirer Top Critic The world needed this reunion, just like it needs Cross and Odenkirk and Tompkins et al. to scatter and tumble into as much pop culture as possible. Nov 16, 2015 | Full Review… David Weigel Slate Top Critic What's most endearing and reassuring, though, is that despite the 17 years that have passed since the end of Mr. Show, the format still works and the guys are still funny, despite not doing much to get with the times. Nov 13, 2015 | Full Review… Ned Ehrbar TheWrap Top Critic W/ Bob & David is terrific sketch comedy: absurd, inventive, surprising, and just damn funny. Nov 10, 2015 | Rating: A- | Full Review… Alan Sepinwall HitFix Well HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA is all I have to say about W/ Bob & David, because it's damn funny and does the Mr. Show legacy proud. Nov 13, 2015 | Full Review… Tim Surette TV.com So, praise be, With Bob & David is great. Nov 13, 2015 | Full Review… Adam Freelander Vanity Fair A lot of the comedy hinges on little quirks and whimsicalities. Some of it is a bit tedious... But the best stuff is excellent indeed, with that blend of craziness and wit that characterized Mr. Show. Nov 13, 2015 | Full Review… Ken Tucker Yahoo! TV Neither scam nor flam, W/ Bob and David proves that the Mr. Show crew has still got the goods. Nov 11, 2015 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review… Sam Woolf We Got This Covered We get to watch two friends whose professional successes pale in comparison to the joy they get from dressing up like goofballs and making live audiences laugh. Dec 3, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Simon Miraudo Junkee View All Critic Reviews (27) Audience Reviews for W/ Bob and David: Season 1 Jan 17, 2017 Ahh yes I could watch this again and again Pavel S Nov 14, 2016 Ony on epside 4 and i already gave it a 5 star. So fucking good. please let there be a sizzle 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 ect Plain C Aug 23, 2016 Bob Odenkirk and David Cross may not be quite as ruthless in how they satirize their numerous targets as they were during their previous sketch comedy show, Mr. Show, but they certainly succeed in remaining relevant, twenty years after Mr. Show began. The familiar cast is still much on point, even with some contemporary changes in style of humour, and W/ Bob & David is an excellent introduction to the lovingly destructive nature of Odenkirk and Cross. Having watched Mr. Show first, where misses were near non-existent, I was disappointed by the drop in consistency. Sometimes, the writing team goes too easy, in favour of playing for a more contemporary audience. For newcomers, that may not be noticeable. My favourite sketch is Rooms! The Musical, from its preceding sketch conception, through the sketch itself of three guys conceiving a musical about singing rooms of a house, and into the following sketch that reprises running gags of the episode. That, among the many other successful sketches of the show, are so hilariously pointed that, despite the drop in consistency, I ached for more than four episodes. Cameron H Dec 23, 2015 Great, funny show. The pre-taped video bits are better than the live studio performances (obviously), but still funny. The Salesmen bit was the best of the entire season. The 4 episodes season leaves you wanting more. The "making of" episode provides a good insight to the creative process. Eric R Nov 21, 2015 In the decade-and-a-half since the conclusion of the HBO sketch series Mr. Show, hosts Bob Odenkirk and David Cross have gone from alt-comedy heroes to rather recognizable TV stars. Still, this reunion series for them has hardly lost any of the off-kilter humor, and it's retained it's zany-yet-dark edge and almost the entire cast (guess Sarah Silverman was too famous to show up). Don't expect anything too different from the previous series (asides from the contemporary filmmaking), but name two other comedians in their 50s that are putting out material that's just as strong as their hey-day. Also, it's fairly miraculous that Bob and David were able to take enough time out of their busy schedules to give us even an abbreviated season. Peter F Nov 15, 2015 Bob Odenkirk and David Cross are always fun to see together, but I was expecting a bit more than what I got out of season 1. Lawrence W Nov 14, 2015 lots of things just fall flat or dont even get off the ground. there are a few laughs (very scattered) and sadly not carrying the length of any sketch. prob the saddest bit is there are a few that would have worked if filmed instead of performed live (cops, first part of dry cleaner, etc) Jason K See all Audience reviews News & Features 150 Erotic Movies Ranked worst to best! 2019's Most Anticipated 63 movies coming up this year 200 Essential Movies Chosen by RT staff!
