Comedy Central's short lived series That's My Bush! based on "life in the White House" is now on DVD. The show, which aired in early 2001, was a series by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators of South Park. It lasted only 8 episodes.
Ok, so this isn't exactly breaking news, I guess it was released Oct. 24, but I hadn't heard about it until yesterday.
I loved that show, I thought it was great. I was wondering if there were any fans of the show here on BWW.
It was more a parody on formulaic TV sitcoms than political satire. Though I thought both were represented well. Each episode dealt with a heavy, controversial issue, i.e. gun control, abortion, euthanasia, etc.
Matt & Trey were going to create a show about whoever won the 2000 Presidential election and were "95% sure Gore would win". So they started developing a series called Everybody Loves Al. Although I am not at all happy Bush "won", I certainly think it made for a better title!
