Eastbound and Down. (HBO Canada)

[Barnes]

Is anyone watching this show? It stars Danny McBride (Tropic Thunder, Pineapple Express, Hot Rod, Superbad, Heartbreak Kid, Fanboys) and is produced by Adam McKay and Will Ferrell. It's about a John Rocker type ###### bag pitcher who falls on hard times. If you like Apatow style humour then this show is for you.

The first three episodes are available on Shaw on Demand for free and episode 5 airs tonight on HBO Canada.

This is a user comment describing the show from IMDB that sums up the show perfectly.

Eastbound and Down is a super funk mega tragedy of spectacualrity designed by the Satan of American awesomeness, Kenny Powers lookalike, Danny McBride. Profanity drips out of every one of his pasty pores. He is proud, stupid, and ready to annihilate everything. This show breathes fire into the lunges of a choking victim while simultaneously speaking inappropriately to your children. Eastbound and Down is a poop sprinkler of inexcusable and undeniable creativity, spraying in stuttered time across the aluminum paneling on your rented house. This show is funny, brilliant, and it better be making its way into your long-term memory soon!

Show is funny because of Danny McBride. He is hilarious in everything he does.

Didn't take long for them to get back in the swing of things. Sunday's episode was hilarious

I love this show

His pep talk to the team was hilarious "there is no I in team but there is a U in c... so dont be a c..."

Going out onto the field to Hulk Hogan's old theme song was gold


I mentioned this show in the season premiere thread and nobody responded

I really liked the first season. Thought the season 2 premiere was horrible. Haven't had a chance to watch episode 2 yet.

Canada sucks for HBO. Season 2 has already started. A co-worker told me about this last week, it's on my watch list now.

So HBO has apparently picked up Season 3..anyone know when its supposed to start?

I saw this..

December 2010 Update: Before the finale of Boardwalk Empire last night, HBO did a small spot for all of their upcoming 2011 programming. We know Eastbound & Down Season 3 was picked up, but it did not appear in this segment. So it looks like we will be waiting until 2012 to see anything new out of Kenny Powers?

I finished watching the second season yesterday, hopefully the third season starts soon.

I saw S1, and have to say I really liked it until the final epsiode, which gave me 0 laughs. I didn't know S2 started already until now.

For those who have not seen it yet.

According to wikipedia it's going to start in January.
