MR. SHOW WITH BOB AND DAVID: EAT ROTTEN FRUIT FROM A SHITTY TREE (TV)
Summary
One in this series of sketch comedy programs starring Bob Odenkirk and David Cross. In this episode, Bob and David host "The Mr. Show Water Cooler," a political debate program featuring "absolutely no experts" like hunky skydiver Keith Minders and dim-witted porn star Xona Chiffon, who "brands" both of her delighted hosts with red lipstick kisses as Keith is submerged in a vat of vanilla custard as punishment for being "a smarty pants"; Arianna Poujapour of the INR News Channel anchors a story about U.S. President Truman Theodore "Two T" Fruitty's digestive problems at a party hosted by Martif Pharti; the Queen of England stages an elaborate escape from her palace while sparring with her guests and a flustered footman; two macho Canadians bump into each other in a bar and dare each other to back down; God records his autobiography as an audio book, looking and acting like producer Robert Evans in his trademark business suit, turtleneck, scarf, sunglasses, white socks, and black penny loafers; and an investigative tabloid show, "Probings," looks into the truth behind novelty songs about monster parties.
