*THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES & NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER* 'A real gem of a book for comedy fans... honest, irreverent and fascinating' Matt Lucas 'This book is a love letter to all his comedy heroes, full of warmth, heart and wit' Georgia Pritchett In this hilarious, heartfelt memoir, the star of Mr. Show and Breaking Bad spin off Better Call Saul opens up about the highs and lows of showbiz, his cult status as a comedy writer, and what it's like to reinvent himself at age fifty as an action-film ass-kicker. Featuring humorous tangents, never-before-seen photos, wild characters, and Bob's trademark unflinching drive and humour, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic showbiz tale told by a determined idiot. 'I can't think of another entertainer who has improbably morphed so many times and all through real genius and determination' Conan O'Brien In Hollywood, Bob demonstrated a bullheadedness that would shame Sisyphus himself, and when all hope was lost for the umpteenth time, the phone rang with an offer to appear on Breaking Bad-a show about how boring it is to be a high school chemistry teacher. His embrace of this strange new world of dramatic acting led him to working with Steven Spielberg, Alexander Payne, and Greta Gerwig, and then, in a twist that will confound you, he re-re-invented himself as a bona fide action star. Why? Read this and do your own psychoanalysis-it's fun! Featuring humorous tangents, never-before-seen photos, wild characters, and Bob's trademark unflinching drive and humour, Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama is a classic showbiz tale told by a determined idiot. 'I can't think of another entertainer who has improbably morphed so many times and all through real genius and determination' Conan O'Brien 'An exceptionally and uniquely talented man who has had a huge influence on comedy for over thirty years. And now he's given us his P.O.V. of that journey. This book is filled not only with lessons on "making" "it" in "showbiz" but also regular old life lessons as well (including his killer recipe for "Granny's Sunday Loaf"). It's funny, informative, and like the author himself, disarmingly honest. I look forward to meeting him one day' David Cross
