Maybe You Seen It, Maybe You Ain't

One of the funniest things on video in recent months (years?) is an internet television show by creator Bob Odenkirk  (Mr. Show).  The show is called Derek and Simon.  It's about two friends that live in Los Angeles, one is a poon hound, the other a more reserved neurotic, young Jewish guy.  Each episode varies in length from about One and 1/2 minutes to Five.  Timing aside each episode packs enough comic punch to fuck up Mike Tyson.  I feel that this is were Odenkirk really succeeds.  Bob Odenkirk can't make a feature film to save his life but these little web episodes from Superdeluxe.com will have you laughing for days.

Hey Alex thanks for putting this up. Man where do you guys find this stuff? I loved Bob when he did his one episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" playing the retired porn actor.

Cool seeing Michael Cera in something new, he is a real cool actor
