Hollywood Said No!: Orphaned Film Scripts, Bastard Scenes, and Abandoned Darlings from the Creators of Mr. Show

Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, creators of HBO's sketch comedy show Mr. Show, present a collection of scripts and ideas that were not greenlit by Hollywood. Since Mr. Show ended, Odenkirk and Cross have worked on various acting, directing, and other projects. Hollywood Said No! includes full-length, never-before-seen scripts for Bob and David Make a Movie (with new storyboards by artist Mike Mitchell) and Hooray For America!, described as a satirical critique. The book also features a bonus section of orphaned sketch ideas from Mr. Show and beyond, including material suitable for performance by church groups. The collection contains comic material and commentary. Readers can examine scripts that did not receive approval and consider what might have been.
