The State vs. Mr. Show
I'm a huge Mr. Show fan and I've heard a lot about The State and how funny it was. So here's a question to those of you who have seen both: how do the two compare? I can't imagine any sketch show even approaching the brilliance of Mr. Show but I'm willing to give The State a shot since I've never seen it, although I did see half of a Thanksgiving Dinner sketch where the guy is asking for gravy and no one is passing it to him so he takes his sister hostage with a fork (not funny). But back to the question: how are the two shows alike, different, etc? I've run out of steam at this point, but if anyone would answer this for me, it'd be appreciated.
