What About Bob?

As a quintessential comedy, "What About Bob?" primarily elicits strong feelings of Humor, Joy, and Happiness from its audience. The comedic genius lies in the escalating, absurd conflict between the highly strung Dr. Leo Marvin and the persistently oblivious yet charming Bob Wiley. Viewers experience significant Surprise and Anticipation as Bob's ingenious methods of intrusion and Leo's increasingly frantic and unhinged reactions unfold. There's a palpable sense of Relief when comedic tensions are released, often through Bob's unintentional triumphs over Leo's schemes. While Leo's Anger and Anxiety are central to the plot, these emotions are largely observed by the audience for their comedic effect, contributing to an overall sense of Satisfaction as the egotistical doctor gets his comeuppance.
