I am kinda struggling on what to write about this one. I really liked the story... but the production left a bit to be desired. This film could have used a bigger budget... some of the special effects just could have been better. But over all I enjoyed the film... it is definitely worth the time to watch it.

Plot:
The Los Angeles Times called it "Rip Roaring Hilarious." Entertainment WeeklyThe Ben Stiller Show as well as an originally unaired thirteenth episode AND nearly an hour of unaired sketches, outtakes and rare, behind-the-scenes footage with commentaries by the entire cast and writing staff.

So sit back and watch as Ben Stiller, Janeane Garofalo, Andy Dick and Bob Odenkirk lead an inspired array of sketches and deft parodies with guest stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Dennis Miller, Flea, Garry Shandling, Susan Anton, and many, many more.

I didn't find this last episode all that funny. Maybe at the time it was something refreshing, but the jokes that work have been seen many times since (or maybe even had been already at the time). Which is sad because this series had a great cast. Best one probably is Bob Odenkirk, who later did Mr. Show.
I don't really remember any of the other episodes, except that I also didn't really enjoy the first episode when I watched it in my pilot marathon.
