Summary

Audie Award Finalist, Audio Drama, 2014

Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, creators of HBO's classic sketch comedy show Mr. Show, present to you this collection of never-before-seen scripts and ideas that Hollywood couldn't find the gumption to green-light. Simply put....

Hollywood Said No!

Since Mr. Show closed up shop, Bob and David have kept busy with many projects - acting in fun, successful, movies and TV shows, directing things, and complaining about stuff that didn't turn out well to anyone who would listen, and even alone, in silence, inside their own heads.

Hollywood Said No! reveals the full-length, never-before-seen scripts for Bob and David Make a Movie (fleshed out with brand-new storyboards by acclaimed artist Mike Mitchell) and Hooray For America!: a satirical power-house indictment of all that you hold dear.

This tome also includes a bonus section of orphaned sketch ideas from the Mr. Show days and beyond, suitable for performance by church groups that aren't all koo-koo about religion. What you are looking at online, and are about to buy, is chock-full of comic twists, turns, and maybe a few hard truths. We said "maybe," but what we mean was "probably not."

Now, for the first time, take a peek at the scripts that didn't get the go-ahead and ponder a world we can only dream about...and beyond!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

For fans of Mr Show

What did you like most about Hollywood Said No!?

That it was fully formed, it seemed effortless despite the fact the script was at the time over a decade old.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Bob, he's just the best.

Bob yelling is up there with the best catchphrases.

What about David Cross and Bob Odenkirk ’s performance did you like?

It's always great to hear from Jay Johnston

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I nearly choked a few times due to laughter.

Any additional comments?

A great ensemble cast.
