The Best of Mr. Show: Fantastic Newness

Used as a preview/promo for season 2. Tom plays host Carlin McCree, who hosts "Fantastic Newness". He introduces a product that can be used in the living room, kitchen, and even the bedroom. It's called Mr. Show, and we get to meet the inventors, Bob Odenkirk and David Cross. Carlin says he had no clue that they had, so they show him the "Change for A Dollar Sketch". We then meet Nancy Gumphrey, played by Jill, burning a pot of milk. They show another sketch to the pot. Then they show a sketch that shows why HBO, because they swear alot. Officer Mahoney, played by John, comes down and the boys try to show his police car a sketch to help clean it up. The audience threatens to kill Carlin if they don't get more, so Bob and David show a minute-long preview of Season 2. This doesn't satisfy the crowd, and Carlin is killed.
