Product Description

In this wicked animated comedy, Mel Wax (Michael McKean) is the head of a dysfunctional Hollywood indie movie studio, Hopeless Pictures. In the land where a studio chief is only as good as his last big flop, Wax struggles to reign in out-of-control, pill-popping Swedish directors and egomaniacal stars, while coping with a vengeful soon-to-be ex-wife (Lisa Kudrow), assorted affairs, his idiot nephew/head of production (Bob Balaban), a hostile takeover and an inept psychiatrist, Dr. Stein (Jonathan Katz).

Customer Reviews

Great Show
This show is one of the funnier things to come along in a while- a great mockery of Hollywood show business. Jennifer Coolidge is consistently hilarious, Paul Reubens, Lisa Kudrow, and Martin Mull make appearances also. Best part of the show, however, is the psychiatrist, played by Jonathon Katz (of Dr. Katz)who has to deal with everyone's problems.

The DVD box set is definitely worth getting- the show has great re-watching value, as the jokes become more understandable and funnier as you go along.
