The Chris Farley Show by TANNER COLBY, Tom Farley (2008, Hardcover)

Chris Farley always made me laugh and he is my daughters favorite comidian. This is a great book about the struggles he faced. His death was a great loss to so many people. The things he did in his life that noone knew about the great acts of charity and going out of his way to help people. This is a perfect book for a Chris Farley fan to learn just how great he was and how much he is missed and how he ment to people.

This was just what I was hoping it would turn out to be. As a young man growing up, I idolized Farley and his death in 1997 was tragic for me (only 11 at the time). This book is awesome because it's built on excerpts from the people who knew him best (Lorne Michaels, Chevy Chase, David Spade, his brothers Tom and Kevin) and were right there during every step of his life. It gives you powerful insight into his all aspects of his life, and really outlines his ongoing battle with substance abuse in depth. One of the best books I've read in awhile. Love you Chris! Rest In Peace buddy, you deserve that.

Bought it the first day! Love it!! Cried and Laughed. You really get an insight to how and why this happened and an understanding of what the world lost when we lost Chris. I loved Chris! A++

I decided to buy this book because Chris Farley was a big inspiration to me growing up and even in death I appreciate the man's talents even more. The book was better than I had expected. There were personal stories shared by family and friends of Chris that made you feel like you really knew the guy. It made me laugh out loud several times. I also had many times where I had to set the book down and do some self reflection. If you are a Farley fan than you wont be dissapointed.

I loved this book. Chris was a homeboy. From my town. He was several years behind me at the same school. What a great insight to Chris's life. A few weeks ago I went to Ressurrection cemetary, to visit my mon, dad and brother. I found Chris's sight in the chapel. I felt so sad, thinking how much he had to offer this world. A great book. Well written.

A good book, with an interesting style about a young man going through alot pf personal turmoil. Great quotes from friends and family, with a few excerpts showing some of the trouble of Chris's life.

After hearing a radio interview with Tom Farley I wanted to read the book. It took me over a week to read it (I'm a fast reader). It was sad, but insightful. Chris is happy & guiding up in heaven. GOD bless you Chris!!
