Maximum Bob Audience Reviews

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
InspireGato Film Perfection
SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
afison I saw this show on its only run on English TV a year before i moved to the swampy part of the USA and loved it. It was reminiscent of Twin Peaks in its quirkiness. Mr Bridges was excellent in the role of the southern judge and the portrayal of the "bubbas" was spot on, and yes those people do exist down here.Its been 8 years since i saw this show and still i am looking for a DVD of the season or anything about it. I swear I thought i was the only one who liked or even saw this show. I often cite this as one of the high points in American broadcasting, but i am just met with blank stares and bemusement. I guess it was on against some other mega show when it was on ABC(?, but who knows they might show it again when they cancel a show mid-season and need six weeks of programming.i was glad to find other bob heads out here who still remember this show and mourn its passing.all in all one of the best shows i have ever seen despite being made by one of the major networks
bob-mason1 This series captures the quirky logical jumpcuts and surprises Elmore Leonard readers have loved for years. Too bad it wasn't picked up as a continuing series, but if it had some of Leonard might have been diluted as happens in so many long running shows.
Gerbil-8 This show was great, it was beautifully witty and it had a lot of heart. It's a comedy that treads the edge of convention. Each character had an individual and unique impact on the individual stories as well as on each other's way of seeing and doing things. There was a common progression of character development from episode to episode and I was looking forward to seeing how each character would change and adapt, which is why I was so very sad when it was canceled. It didn't run long enough to make it to syndication but hopefully ABC will run the episodes again one summer or something. It was truly an excellent show and one that's worth seeing if you ever get the chance.
La This show is everything you feared was true about Florida. After having lived there I'd say the writers hit the nail on the head. I laughed loud and often. This was only the pilot but I hope to see more.
