    This us one of the funniest shows ever!!!! It's a must see!!! U won't regret it. U prolly will pee yer pants laughing so hard!! I highly suggest watching the whole series. U will get addicted just like I did!!!! 😜 it's not for everyone some people might love it, while some other people might find it offensive, or ridiculous!! Depending on yer own preference. I'll be sad when they stop making the show. If they haven't already!!! Lol I don't even know if they still do film this show. That was soooooo 9 years ago. It's already 2015!!! But I'm sure people will watch the show years from now even. I hope u really do laugh till u get the hiccups.. guaranteed

    When I was trying to pinpoint what separates E & D from routine, run of the mill comedy, I always came back to two things; the characters and the music. The use of certain tracks over sequences that are often slow motion seems so perfect that it can create any tone the director wishes, whilst still keeping a underlying feeling of comedy. The non-diegetic sound comes to the forefront of your attention, creating so much more meaning than images simply could (although E & B would probably still be funny if watched on mute).It could be argued that the tracks are selected with an self-knowing nod, and some possibly are selected to be slightly ironic. However, it is the sense of honesty and at times empathy that allow them to fit in perfectly with the images seen on screen.It is easy to concentrate on the quotable one liners and well developed characters when discussing why Eastbound & Down is funny. I would argue however that the way music is used is as important as the previously mentioned criteria.

    this show is the Shiite. i know most females will hate this show, but that is the reason why most males will love it. and if your female partner is stopping you from watching it then--you should re-evaluate the power centricity of your male aura.Kenny is the ultimate male ego, and in showing his powers, he also shows its weaknesses.this show is beyond funny and crass.usually to get this kind of funny, you have to go to Britain, but this time the u.s. has the edge and also the greater gonads.from what I've read, will Farrell produces the show, and I'm glad he was able to produce something i liked beyond his s.n.l. crappola.evidently this is the second series and I'm so glad it goes on.keep it up. maybe we can change the specious pattern that is the norm of American comedy.

    I don't know how I will feel about this show a year from now, but after having watched all six episodes several times over, I consider it to be one of my favorite series of all time. This was just exactly my sense of humor. In the vein of Bad Santa and its anti-hero Willie, Kenny Powers is an uncompromising mess of a character that seems to say and do the most amusing thing possible in every situation. Not since Owen Wilson broke out with "Bottle Rocket" has there been a performer who can make me laugh by doing so little--it's more about his delivery than the actual material. I am deliberately not discussing any details of the show in case someone wants to discover it for themselves, but if you enjoy either of the two movies I mentioned, or other profanity-laced HBO offerings, such as Entourage (with the equally foul-mouthed Ari Gold), then try some. I think it's worth noting that both Kenny Powers and Ari Gold are both the most quotable TV characters of the decade, and certainly my two favorites.
