We missed this news when it was announced a while back. The complete run of Get a Life, Chris Elliott’s cult comedy series, is finally coming to DVD from Shout! Factory. This show, in which Chris Elliott is an overgrown paperboy who still lives with his parents, had a writing staff that included Charlie Kaufman and Bob Odenkirk.

And it’s freakin’ weird — just watch the clip above, where Elliott meets Spewey the Alien, whose only method of communication consists of throwing up and throwing punches. And then he introduces Spewey to his cousin, the Pope. Whuh?

Elliott told The AV Club that the complete Get a Life would be out on DVD this fall, with tons of extras. And the AV Club linked to the above fantastic clip, as well as this sequence, where Elliott travels through time:
