Eastbound & Down: The Complete First Season
In this hilarious new HBO comedy series, Kenny Powers, a washed-up former Major League Baseball star, is forced to return to his hometown to teach P.E. at his old middle school. While preparing for his triumphant return to the big leagues, Kenny moves in with his brothers family and proves adept at burning every bridge he crosses.Stepping up to the plate in this six-episode HBO series, comedy’s newest It Boy, Danny McBride (The Foot Fist Way, Pineapple Express, Tropic Thunder), hits it out of the park as Kenny Powers, a former baseball phenom, who, after spending his millions and burning all bridges, returns to his high school to teach physical education. The delusional Powers (he still wears a mullet!) insists that he will return to the majors. Until then, he makes a play for his former high school flame (Katy Mixon), now an art teacher who is engaged to the boring, by-the-book principal (Andrew Daly). He runs roughshod over his brother and his disapproving wife (John Hawkes and Jenn

One of the funniest TV shows ever. It’s a literal cornucopia of comedy quotes you’ll be repeating over and over to fellow fans of the show. Danny McBride is at his best as Kenny Powers. Classic stuff. I am definitely going to be buying the DVDs when they come out so I can watch the shows all over again. I really hope HBO does another season of this one. It’s the best thing they done since The Sopranos. Highly recommended.

One of the funniest shows with one of the funniest actors I’ve seen in a long, long time. He made Pineapple Express. He made Tropic Thunder. Killed it in The Heartbreak Kid and absolutely owns it on this show. Nothing is held back, the season hasn’t even completely aired yet and I already want the DVD. Do yourself a favor and watch this show, you’ll thank me later.

This is the funniest series I’ve seen in along time. With only 6 episodes in season 1 you’ll be left wanting more. Sarcastic, fun loving assh*le genius Danny McBride with guest appearance Will Ferrell, tie this show into a comedy that leaves you covering your face in embarrassment, wondering how they got the balls create such a gem.
Do yourself a favor and pick this one up. Underrated as hell, spread the word. Kudos, Danny McBride.
Also see the “Foot Fist Way” if you like this DVD.
