Product Description

One of the true gems of 1990s animation, Comedy Central's DR. KATZ, PROFESSIONAL THERAPIST, not only trafficked in refreshingly intelligent, satiric humor, but pioneered an innovative style of animation known as Squigglevision. Voice Jonathan Katz, H. Jon Benjamin, Laura Silverman Special Features: Audio: (unspecified), English Additional Release Material: Audio Commentary, 1. Ray Romano, Star, Dave Attell, Star 2. Jonathan Katz, Star/Creator, Tom Snyder, Creator Featurette, THE BIOGRAPHY OF DR. KATZ (Original Short) Runtime: 132 minutes Year of Release: 1995.

Amazon.com

Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist: Season One includes the first six 1995 episodes from the Comedy Central animated series, which was based, the story goes, on comic actor Jonathan Katz's personal life. Playing himself (i.e., providing the voice for his cartoon self) as a divorced psychologist whose clients include a number of comedians, Katz is very funny in a non-confrontational, quietly frustrated yet loquacious way. Dr. Katz lives with his grown son (H. Jon Benjamin), an unemployed, apparently unskilled loser who hangs around Katz's office ineptly trying to pick up his dad's prickly receptionist (Laura Silverman). The latter is so surly and self-centered she tells Katz he doesn't "know what it's like" to spend a day around "crazy people" at work. (Katz, being Katz, has no comeback to that remark.) These three absurd characters (and the inspired performers behind them) would be enough to fill a show by themselves. But the biggest plus in Dr. Katz is a succession of vocal performances (which sound largely improvised) by some welcome comedians playing neurotic versions of themselves, including (and especially) Ray Romano, Wendy Liebman, Dave Attell, Laura Kightlinger, and Larry Miller, all in the first season. Each episode exudes anxiety and churns along to the sound of rambling dialogues that barely paper over repressed desire and rage. Sort of like real life, except funnier. --Tom Keogh

I’ve had volume 2 for awhile now and trying to find a reasonable price for volume 1 seemed like it would never happen. It finally did.
This is a great show and I’m glad to have the whole series now!

A classic show for sure!

Loved Doc Katz back in the day. Love it more now. Dosen't appear that most of show is on dvd....but I have the first two seasons, and looks like many shows are on youtube. The squiggly lines thing was a failed gimmick in my opinion. However, I don't even notice it anymore, And, most importantly, it does not take away from the content of the show! I love the relationship between Katz and son Ben---the original slacker millennial----it is a fun father and son relationship, and strong characters well developed as you go along, including Laura and his drinking friends at the bar. The revolving cast of comedians posing as his patients to do their routines, is hit or miss, depending on your tastes. However, overall, it is clean funny humor, back from a day when you didn't have the most vile mean spirited BS posing as "humor or satire". I have to laugh when I see the warning at beginning, "this show has mature subject matter and discretion should be used"----who knows what little kids are watching and seeing on the intermutt today? mostly worthless, except for the negative effects it is having on people.....oh well, I am an old man.... Cheers.

The Only Television Show Made In Tom Snyder's Pantry

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 23, 2006

Verified Purchase

Dave Attell called "Dr. Katz" a "comedic garbage dump of material." He's right, but only in the sense that this show dwells on the humorous and dark personality quirks of celebrities including (in the six episodes of season one) Ray Romano, Dave Attell, Dom Irrera, and Larry Miller. The psychoses of the "cast" are fleshed out in hilarious, yet dry, detail. Romano and Miller are my favorite patients from this season, but all the patients are strange, demented, and delightful. One of my favorite features of the show is the inset or flashbacks of the issue being discussed on the couch, the visual images of which are generally hilariously disturbing.

I am also fond of the fact that Katz and his son, Ben (a 23 year old slacker) have as many (if not more) issues than the patients. One of my favorite recurring plotlines is Ben's attempt to get Katz's receptionist to date him, which only works when there is great opportunity for embarrassment for her boss at an "open mic" night. (I also particularly enjoy her creative hostility when she helps Ben park and subsequently get towed from a no parking zone.)

This show (which really was made in Tom Snyder's pantry) is very dry and full of a bizarre mix of subtlety and snideness and is a true wonder of low budget animation. It not only introduced the world to the delights of Squigglevision (which propagated to the first season of "Home Movies") but made cartoons acceptable for adults again after years of focus on kids.

This is a great, funny, intelligent, and surreal animation experience and I recommend it highly.

The Doctor is in...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 9, 2017

Verified Purchase

Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist--I believe there were six seasons in total, but for whatever reasons, only the first 2 have been released in full on DVD. A pity, because this was a great, funny series produced by Comedy Central back in the 90s. I think the main hook--or at least, the biggest draw for me--was that Dr. Katz's patients were mostly stand-up comedians, and having the power of animation, added to the mostly great material when the patients would come in for their sessions.

I think the biggest laughs might come from the first episode when Dom Irrera was on the couch. Something about him talking about dressing Dr. Katz in a red gown and riding him like a bull had me dying. The interplay between Dr. Katz and Ben, and seeing how the Dr. relates with his rude secretary and his friends at the bar is also great.

Season 1 also has many appearances by Ray Romano, another funny guy. Again, hopefully one day, someone will eventually release all 6 seasons of this classic cartoon....

Fascinating fun, an original

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 30, 2013

Verified Purchase

I normally don't watch animated film much, but when I stumbled onto this tv show years ago I became immediately hooked because it is totally fascinating to watch, as this psychotherapist Dr. Katz deals with his patients, whose voices are actually those of very popular personalities of the day and who are very funny with their various true-to-life issues, and then there is his secretary who is strangely compelling as a young woman with an attitude problem, to say the least, but a really nice voice. And their is Dr. Katz's grown son who lives with him in his one-parent home and who apparently is very bright but unmotivated to find work or get out on his own. And there's more and it is all very interesting and fun. The animation style is unusual in that is is kind of sketchy and kind of vibrates and this may throw off new viewers, at first, but once you get used it, it becomes comfortable and not a distraction. Love this show, sorry it didn't go on for more than two seasons. I am so glad Amazon had it and at the right price, too.

Squigglevision finding it's vision

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 6, 2006

Verified Purchase

There are only six episodes in season one. That sounds puny,until you find out how they were made. This was no big studio effort. The comedians featured are Ray Romano, Joy Behar,

Dom Irrera, Dave Attel and Larry Miller. Some of this works

and some of it doesn't. Jonathan Katz is always funny along with

his son Ben(Jon Benjimin), and his bored secretary(Laura Silverman). Ray Romano is good. Some of the other comics are

spotty. The commentary by the creators(Tom Snyder, Katz and Benjimin)

is what makes this especially interesting(it would be a three

star without it) Filmed in squigglevision, which gives the

illusion of movement, when actually only the lips and eyes move.

They talk about how some people got ill watching squigglevision. I enjoyed

the show when it first ran, but watching no more than one or two

episodes at a time is enough. I suppose they are waiting to see the response before issuing more on DVD. I hope they do, but

more episodes on the DVD please.

LOVE THIS! I force my friends to watch...if they don't like it ...my opinion of them changes. I really enjoy that his patients are well known stand up comedians and the monotone subtle humour...not the slap stick in your face kind that insults your intelligence.
