Bob Odenkirk & The Birthday Boys Accept IFC's Show Offer with Unusual Conditions
Last month, IFC announced the greenlight of The Birthday Boys, a new scripted original sketch comedy to join the network's "Always on. Slightly off." line-up in the fall. Following this announcement, IFC never heard from The Birthday Boys... until now.
In the below video, The Birthday Boys' unofficial representative Bob Odenkirk (Breaking Bad, Mr. Show) accepts the greenlight of their show with very specific and unconventional conditions.
