MR. SHOW WITH BOB AND DAVID: THE VELVETEEN TOUCH OF A DANDY FOP (TV)
Summary
One in this series of sketch comedy programs starring Bob Odenkirk and David Cross. In this episode, a blind executive is annoyed by attempts to read to him; a "psychoactualist" stages a skit on a subway to demonstrate his theory that the mind contains four personality types that determine behavior -- "an old lady, a biker, a Japanese man, and a gay guy"; a man with a bleeding ear hassles a donut shop waitress; a documentary charts the careers of rival megaphone singers of the early recording era, who invented gadgets for their songs' subject matter; several movie executives attempt to discover the reasons why "Coupon -- The Movie" was a failure; and scenes are shown from "Coupon," the wildly over-directed saga of a suburban mother shopping for socks.
