Klein: The HBO Specials
Possibly the most respected comic in the business, it becomes starkly apparent when you start watching these early HBO specials just how many comics have ripped Robert Klein off over the decades - either stylistically or outright. For better or for worse, he inspired comics like Jerry Seinfeld, Ray Romano and hundreds before them. These specials are a testament to Klein's originality - and his staying power. The blazingly funny monologues and hilarious commercial parodies - it all adds up to magnificent, timeless observational humor. It's the first time on DVD for all of these specials, and the first time on home video for the earlier and later shows. The early specials are especially funny and insightful but Klein never loses his sarcastic bite. In 2005 he was named one of Time's 100 people who shaped our lives, one of the first - and only - counter culture comics to achieve mainstream success. That was due to the universality of his routines, the intelligence behind the jokes. You get 8 specials on 4 discs along with a new, bonus interview with Klein. Without a doubt, Robert Klein is one of a kind and this collection will make a fine addition to your DVD library, just as funny 30 years from now as it is today.

Carol Burnett Show on DVD
FEATURES YOU MIGHT ENJOY: Plot Synopsis:
An, offshoot of The Daily Show, The Colbert Report (the Ts in Colbert
and in Report are silent) is a parody of shows like "The O'Reilly
Factor." Colbert begins the show with teasers about the show's
content and then the credits go by, with a giant eagle and the stars
and stripes featured predominantly. Colbert will pepper commentaries
with phrases like, "Look, I don't have time to read books,"
or, "President Bush isn't a head thinker, he's a gut thinker."
Aspects of talking head programs are exaggerated and Colbert presents
a host overwhelmed by his own importance. Guests do not walk on-stage but are seated at a small
table to the side. Colbert runs over to them, encouraging the audience
to applaud and high five him as he passes. He is then likely to begin
an interview by asking a guest something like, "Explain evolution
in 20 seconds," or "Isn't everyone who disagrees with the
president guilty of treason?" Colbert is also very clear about
our number one threat, "Bears." His distrust of bears is
a continuing theme. Studio: Paramount Home Video TV
