Netflix has ordered a season of With Bob and David, a new sketch comedy show by comedians Bob Odenkirk and David Cross. The title of the show is a reference to the duos’ earlier sketch series Mr. Show With Bob and David which ran on HBO from 1995 to 1998. Netflix has ordered four half-hour episodes and one hour-long making-of special of the new series.
Fans of Mr. Show may have suspected a reunion of sorts was in the works when comedian Paul F. Tompkins tweeted a photo of a group of Mr. Show writers together in December of 2014.
Eight men out… of the 1990s. Maybe something new coming from the Mr. Show gang in the new year? #MrShow pic.twitter.com/gBy8CQ49nv
