But the best material is positively surreal, such as a Jerry Springer-like talk show taking place on a life raft, and a variation on The Paper Chase in which a curmudgeonly law professor (Michael McKean), suddenly called away from class after a ritual assault on his students' intelligence, is replaced by a less-articulate tyrant (Odenkirk). Also superb is a politically incorrect piece about two guys vying for a blind woman's affection via competing (and increasingly bizarre) descriptions of a sunset, and the "501st Olympics," pitting the Dalai Lama and his monks against fat kids from a summer camp. Special features include Bob and Dave's not-to-be-missed appearance at a Comic Relief cable special, in which a gullible Odenkirk bares all for the sake of his craft. --Tom Keogh

Customer Reviews of Mr. Show - The Complete Fourth Season
Professor Homicide! The Mr. Show did something others seldom do, they got out leaving us wanting more! This is the season to beat, with Sweetie Pie Jenkins, Wykyd [sic] Sceptre, warring summer camps and best of all a "mouth full of sores!' The song we can't stop singing. This is the chance to complete a collection of absolutley beautiful american sketch comedy, and that don't happen often!
Four Words...
...The Story of Everest. That episode alone is worth the price of the DVD. The rest is just icing on the cake-- sweet, hilarious icing.
Best of Mr. Show
I've probably watched every episode of Mr. Show at least 5 times, and I gotta say, Season 4 was by far the best. The sketches got more outlandish and funnier as the seasons went on, and some of the stuff in the fourth season had shocked me as much as it made me laugh. I also think the transitions between scenes got much more clever and crisper as the seasons progressed, and by season 4 they were incredible. The episode with the "Description of the lion's roar" is particularly great. I've been itching for this to come out since I first heard about Mr. Show being released on DVD.
Clearly explaining why this season was funnier than the rest is about as difficult as describing the comedy of Mr. Show to the uninitiated, so I'm going to resist trying. I'll post a more detailed review once it's out, but I'm gonna be eagerly awaiting my copy.
A note of caution, though: the humor in this season is decidedly darker than in seasons 1 through 3, and certain sketches may be a little disturbing to some viewers.
