Editorial Reviews

Join a live, sold-out concert as Bob performs his famous side-splitting "one-man telephone comedy classics", such as: The nervous driving instructor; The school for rude bus drivers; King Kong and the new security guard and many more. This is the real Bob Newhart at his funniest!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bob Is The Best!, July 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Bob Newhart - Button Down Concert - Off the Record [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you like Bob, you owe it to yourself to get this tape. His only taped concert performance(in Pasadena around 1995) we see Bob do his famous one man routines including a few phone calls. You get The School For Bus Drivers, The Driving Instructor, King Kong In New York, Abe Lincoln Vs. Madison Ave, The USS Codfish, Abner Double Day tries To Sell Baseball, The Retirement Party, The Introduction of Tobacco and The NEw Ariline. It's great to see bob outside of character, a real treat!

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money- buy the CD's, April 6, 2008

This review is from: Bob Newhart - Button Down Concert - Off the Record [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This DVD is a hodgepodge of several routines Newhart did back in the early part of his career, and most are abridged to allow him to get them all into the program.

The "Button down mind" CD's have the whole things. Buy them- much better.
