2. If you're going to eat a chocolate cock, pretend it's an ear of corn.

Funny stuff, marred by production

"Dana Gould has funny material on this DVD and he keeps the pace going. There's only one spot where I got a little squeamish.

What made this DVD hard to watch was the photography. They decided to use one harsh spotlight and little or no fill lighting, so there's this dark shadow stalking Gould on the wall immediately behind him for much of the show. I found it distracting. Perhaps this was intentional to go with Gould's reputation as an alternative comic. Too me it just seemed low budget.

Another part I didn't like was Gould's glaring into the camera. I'm not familiar with his work but I'm guessing this is a trademark move. The DVD seemed to grind to a halt, though, when Gould was stop and stare directly into the lens.

To me, this says Bob Odenkirk should stick to writing and performing and not directing.
