Continuing our epic survey of Mr. Show with Bob and David, the most important television program of all time, we watch the final two episodes of Mr. Show\u2019s second season: \u201cOperation Hell on Earth\u201d and \u201cThe Velveteen Touch of a Dandy Fop.\u201d As David, Peter, and Geoff discuss here, the show feels like it takes a thematic/aesthetic turn in these particular sketches, with hints of where we\u2019re headed in Season 3. There\u2019s weird arty stuff here (the entire \u201cRecruiters\u201d sketch, a parody of the basketball documentary Hoop Dreams, \xa0is uncanny), plus some all-time favorite characters (Fartin\u2019 Gary, Droopy), and more than a few surprising takes on 90s culture and politics.
