Two musicians with acoustic guitars attends a weekly open mic night. Doesn't sound like much, but it really is. The comedy is truly funny (especially the parodic stand-up bits), but the highlight of the show, and it is a bright highlight indeed, is the musical numbers. The song writing is without a doubt exceptional. "...having sex with me and KG, now were talking double team..." All songs are delivered with incredible feel and musical prowess, especially "Sex Supreme", "Explosivo" and "The Greatest Song in the World". The episodes should really come out on DVD, even if there only is about 60 minutes of material. For now, you could buy their CD. It features all their best songs from this show, except "Cosmic Shame", which i really enjoyed.Get your hands on this show, especially if you have a keen interest in alternative music.

Tenacious D is the most amazing show I have ever seen in my life. It mixes comedy and music together so well. The open mic performances are creative and written well. Kyle Gass is a classically trained musician and Jack Black can throw down some insane lyrics. Folk-Metal is what I would classify the music as. Songs like "Jesus Ranch" and "Kyle Took a Bullet for Me" are two examples of their talent as both musicians and comedians. Too bad HBO canceled the series. If you havent, go buy the CD.

Absolutely wonderful. The comedy is hilarious, the jokes are sharp-witted, the lyrics are genius, the music is magical. These two guys work together so well an they're jokes are the kinds you would share among close friends making you feel like part of the band. It's a spoof on life that gave us a great band. It's definetly worth checking out, but don't bother with the official website, it's seriously lacking. An album is coming out in September of 2001 and keep your eyes open for rare late-night showings of the show ("Tenacious D" or "Tenacious D: The Greatest Band in the World")

"Tenacious D" is a magnificent creation starring two of my favorite people of all time. As a huge fan of the actual band, I loved their show and was very upset that it was taken off of the air. However, all that that means is that the duo is able to record under a major record label and kick some serious ass, rock and roll style! Despite my love for this show, one can only really appreciate the D when they have seen them live, in concert. I speak from experience, they rocked the house on Philly at the TLA in front of a packed crowd, of which I was a part of. If you have ever heard them play songs like Rocketsauce, or The Greatest Song in the World, you would be as enthused as I am. Jack Black and Kyle Gass are on the verge of greatness today, and without their stint on HBO, this greatness may have been delayed three, or maybe four days. For these reasons, I suggest you write HBO and show your hatred to the big-wigs who took "Tenacious D" off the air!
