MR. SHOW WITH BOB AND DAVID: HEAVEN'S CHIMNEY {THIRD SEASON PREMIERE} (TV)
Summary
One in this series of sketch comedy programs starring Bob Odenkirk and David Cross. In this episode, David worships "The Bob," a video-image cult leader who urges his followers to visit Heaven's chimney. A former Mr. Show cast member who is now a minister explains to David, in cartoon-form, what it's like in heaven. On the "Crazy Religious Beliefs" program, Manny and Clark wonder why Jews keep Kosher and Islamic women wear so much clothing. A dinner between friends turns into a sharing of sexual proclivities. Residents of a small town fear the Devastator, a roller coaster that keeps killing people, and Livingston Brewster sings his hit song based on the Devastator tragedies, "Thank You for the Ride." A car ride between two friends, one of whom has just revealed he has cancer, turns into a lesson in car safety. The Educational Film Festival presents "The Limits of Science," the oldest educational film in the world. Finally, satanic husband-and-wife televangelists try to help a wheelchair-bound boy with a sing-along.
