This review is from: It's Garry Shandling's Show: The Complete First Season (DVD)
Garry Shandling gets started here in situation comedy, but he turns the genre upside down in a way that help establish (in 1986) a place for comedians such as Jerry Seinfeld to become legitimate television sit-com personalities. The writing of this show rivals that of Seinfeld, but what has always made this thing click for me is the direct contact with the audience, both in the studio and through the TV screen. His idea of admitting he's doing a television show before a live audience -- showing the audience and even, in one episode, appearing to invite them onto the set of his home while his is on another set. It's pure craziness from the start. Even the theme song is classic. This is a four-disc set that includes some commentary and a few outtakes, as well as an interview with Shandling, post-Larry Sanders. Most definitely worth the price, although I would suggest buying the set containing the entire series.

This review is from: It's Garry Shandling's Show: Season One (Amazon Instant Video)
It's The Garry Shandling Show was the golden age of Shandling's career & Season 1 was the best. Sweet, funny innocence with only slightly naughty jokes from time to time. I'm only sorry the later seasons aren't available for download but the first was the best anyway.
