    There’s some funny stuff on the Netflix version (two episodes were made available). Truthfully, just not enough. In fact, W/Bob & David can be more tedious than inventive.

    Nothing about the targets or topics feels distinctive enough here to merit much enthusiasm. ... While there are, inevitably, some funny moments (and some really bad wigs), there’s also a sense that this was a weekend lark.

    Bob Odenkirk and David Cross’ easy chemistry is still there, but the sketches often feel in style and occasionally in substance so outdated as to be historical curiosities.

I truly hope it gets another season. It's similar to the first season of Mr. Show in that some of the jokes fall flat but there's usually one or two hilarious skits in each episode. Any fan of Mr. Show will not be disappointed by it. I think getting back into the groove will take some time and even in the original show they truly perfected their craft more each season I think this show will be the same if it gets to continue. I really hope they get to make more episodes per season in the future though.… Full Review »

    More clever than funny, w/ bob and david contains a great cast but a struggles to find some of the punchlines in its overly extended sketches.More clever than funny, w/ bob and david contains a great cast but a struggles to find some of the punchlines in its overly extended sketches.

    When watching the show it become extrememly easy to get turned off in the first few minutes, with what should have been one liners becoming entire skits, that lose there juice around half-way being told

    However if you can stick around after those first few minutes what content there is truely looks promising, delieving some effective satire comedy. Which can be seen in a skit involving the whitewashing of roots. Demonstrating how far the show can go while remaining true to the intelligent satire it intends to represent    … Full Review »
