Eastbound & Down

Just for kicks I started rewatching this series. Literally forgot how hilarious Danny McBride is. His delivery of lines is so on point - comic genius. The whole cast rocks.

Eastbound & Down is easily one of the most underrated comedies of all-time! It follows an ex baseball player named Kenny Powers (Danny McBride) who is a substance abuser and self destructive a-hole. He's now a physical education teacher in his hometown of North Carolina and gets another chance a the big leagues. He has to go to Mexico where he gets his major league abilities back. He comes back a changed man, or not. Danny McBride doesn't get enough credit for how funny he is. He's one of the funniest comedians working today. The executive producers in this are Will Ferrell and Adam McKay so if you like that kind of comedy then give this a try because you'll love it.

Excellent new show . Great acting by McBride. Great job for Will Ferrel.. And I am not even a big Will Ferrel fan. He certainly shines as the architect of this series. This is a fun show and obviously based loosely on fallen Atlanta Braves pitcher John Rocker. A has been , egotistical, arrogant ,horny, foul mouthed clod winds up as a P.E. teacher in a middle school while still yearning the spotlight. Living with his straight laced older brothers family with 3 children. There are so many comedic situations that can arise from this situation. It is just unbelievable how HBO turns in so many top notch, entertaining projects. This show is well acted by all . Watch this and you shall be impressed.

Eastbound & Down is absolutely hilarious! It's one of the funnier shows you'll ever see and will literally make you laugh out loud. Danny McBride is so underrated as a comedian and he is perfect in this!

This show is above and beyond what it deserves to be. What ought to be a dumb fun Danny McBride, Will Ferrell produced sports comedy vehicle is in fact a work of television genius.

I am in love with this show.

Every slow motion musical moment, every scene filled with such beautiful comedy and affecting drama. It is cast impeccably, each scene judged to perfection, and the score drifts you along, deep under it's trance. Each episode continues on from the last as if it were a 3 hour movie, and this, I feel, is how it is best viewed. I can not rate it highly enough. I only wish I could live forever, perhaps rather sadly in the warm glow of this series. It is an instant favourite.

If you want your life to be better, watch this show. I only hope there are people out there who can enjoy it on the level that I did.

Just glorious.
