David Cross Goes All LRH for MTVu

Here’s a little bit of awesome.  David Cross is one of my favorite funny men.  Mr. Show on HBO was a work of genius — so far above any other recent sketch comedy show.   In this clip from an MTV awards show that gets pumped into college campuses across the country, he turns the introduction of the next band into a deadpan pitch to come to FLAG and soar up the Bridge.

MTV Shows

And here’s a little taste of Mr. Show.

    Heh heh, those kids in the audience have NO idea what he’s talking about.

    Any chance the clip can be pulled and re posted to youtube as only people within USA (North America) can view it.

    Thanks

    Oh man. Watch the people’s heads in the audience. After a while, they start turning away as he goes on and on. They are probably wishing he’d shut up and bring out the band.

    Is he serious?

    Read that interview:

    Question: “It’s just utter made up nonsense, gobbledygook, garbage.”
    DC: “It’s just utter made up nonsense, gobbledygook, garbage.”

    Now he appears on scientology’s course completion list among other celebs…

    Ooops, the question was “How do you feel about Scientology?”

    I mis-pasted. ^^

    Every time I see David Cross I love him just that much more. He is the best funniest motherfucker in America bar non. And too bad if his stuff is so good it soars over the dumb MTV audiences head – he is awesomeness personified.

    I would actually be curious if that’s a verbatim transcript of a DM speech – I bet its damn close either way.

    Haha.. thats funny. Mr Show was created by Bob Odenkirk who also produces Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!…. Anyway, Tim and Eric created this fake religious site… hmmm I wonder who they are lampooning? Its called Tarvusism….

    Cross’ introduction to the Mr. Show book is also a parody of Scientology.

    Anon2142344 – If you google David Cross scientology, on the first page is a result that’s for a David Cross who is a scientologist. If you read the page, it’s pretty clear that this particular David Cross is an engineer, and not a comedian.
