THE LAUGH-OUT-LOUD, HONEST AND OPEN MEMOIR FROM BELOVED COMEDY WRITER TURNED ACTION STAR BOB ODENKIRK
'A real gem of a book for comedy fans . . . honest, irreverent and fascinating' - Matt Lucas
'Bob Odenkirk is not only a brilliant comedy writer and performer, he is also a comedy fan. This book is a love letter to all his comedy heroes, full of warmth, heart and wit' - Georgia Pritchett
'I loved this book. I was in a lift with Bob once, back in the 90s - little did I know how high he was going' - Harry Hill
In this hilarious, heartfelt memoir, the star of Mr. Show and Breaking Bad spin off Better Call Saul opens up about the highs and lows of showbiz, his cult status as a comedy writer, and what it's like to reinvent himself at age fifty as an action-film ass-kicker. Featuring humorous tangents, never-before-seen photos, wild characters, and Bob's trademark unflinching drive and humour, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic showbiz tale told by a determined idiot.
Customer Reviews
Great Listen, wonderful recollection of influential comedy figures
If you are a fan of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul this is obviously a book for you. However as a bonus you get a wonderful trip down memory lane with the greats of Second City, SNL, and David Cross. This is the first memoir I have listened to that discusses the double groove on Monty Python’s matching tie and handkerchief. If that means anything to you, this is also the book for you. I listened to the audiobook, and it is one of those books that benefits greatly from the author’s narration.
Avoids Saul a lot
People are not buying this to hear 85% about a comedy career. They buying it to hear about the experience of Saul, Which he doesn’t even get to until right near the end a book. A bit of a slog
