did anyone watch this? i thought it was hilarious.

I just watched it and thought it was ok. I really only laughed out loud when he was dancing in the hallway, and the end when he was riding around in circles splashing water at the lady on the jetski. I don't know how I feel about it, its good enough to watch it next week but I don't know if I'm gonna stick with it.

Johnny Manf · **Posted:** February, 24, 2009 - 8:29am

it seriously is. i watched parts of the pilot again and i think it might be the funniest first episode of a show i've ever seen. i love when he's sitting in his truck just listening to his tapes motivating himself. hahahaha

i havent had a chance to watch this past sundays yet.

I finally watched the first two episodes of the show. It's a weird program. I can't say it's my favorite HBO comedy, but I got some laughs out of it, especially the second episode.

But it's odd. I don't know, the character is just so pathetic it's a little sad. I'd be tempted to call this a comedy-drama almost...not quite a straight comedy like Curb or Conchords. Still, I'll be watching the rest of the season probably.

Chapter 6
The first season ends with Kenny bidding his hometown another farewell after fielding an offer for a big-league job in Florida.

Johnny Manf · **Posted:** March, 23, 2009 - 9:49am

of course things dont work out for Kenny. the show hasnt been picked up for season 2 yet so that might have been the end. the stevie character really grew on me. at first i couldnt stand how he talked and now i just think its funny. he cracks me up because he just curses in front of the kids and does whatever kenny says. he's awesome.

i hope the show comes back for another season but danny mcbride is getting a lot of movies roles so who knows. if steve carell can still do the office then danny mcbride can make a couple more seasons of this show.

Bowie · **Posted:** March, 23, 2009 - 2:35pm

I'm about to watch the Season Finale... I don't really know what I think about this show. its definitely not the funniest thing I've seen, but over the past few episodes they've got me wanting to know whats gonna happen with Kenny.

I laugh at his assistant too, he's such a pussy its hard not to laugh.

Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is I'm not. I honestly just feel that America's the best country and all the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism.

He looks like a big bag full of mashed up assholes!

I've been blessed with many things in this life...An arm like a damn rocket, a cocck like a burmese python and a mind like a fuckin scientist.

You and me are the only cool people here. Everyone else is just a bunch of posers, hoes and shitheads.

What are you doing in my bedroom Kenny?
You mean besides creeping around in here like some kind of rapist?

This bar smells like an old lady farted piss.

I'm the guy who can throw the ball FASTER THAN FUCK and that is why I am the greatest person in the world. Kiss my ass and suck my dick...EVERYONE.

Look here you beautiful bitch, I'm about to fuck you up with some truth.

Bowie · **Posted:** March, 23, 2009 - 9:19pm

I liked the finale more then any other episode. I really don't care for his girlfriend, she's a pretty unlikeable character. I was surprised she showed the boobs.

The big son reminds me of Thurman Murman haha

Johnny Manf · **Posted:** March, 23, 2009 - 10:03pm

they were stunt boobs. sneaky camera cuts. haha
they had a long discussion about those boobs on ron & fez on XM today. it was pretty funny. i liked how that was the opening. she flashed the goods and the title screen popped up. haha

Johnny Manf · **Posted:** March, 25, 2009 - 8:25am
