Dave Eggers interviews Chris Elliott

Get a Life was such a funny show. Chris Elliott played a grown up guy who lives with his parents and has a paper route. I remember laughing until I cried at this episode where Chris goes on a camping trip with his buddy, Larry, and his dad, inadvertently eats hallucinogenic wild berries and imagines his dad is a homocidal maniac:

I guess other folks didn't like it as much as I did because it was canceled in short order.

  1. I loved that show too! I remember the one when he was doing the shtick from "Jaws" ("Ever see a shark's eye? It's like a doll's eye...").
