Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!
« on: 21 Dec 2007, 12:57 »

 Seriously, I wasn't fond of it at first, but since the episode "Cats", this has become my current favorite television show (that is, the only television show I really care about seeing right now). Not only because it is insanely surreal and hilarious, but because Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim know exactly how to boter the hell of their viewers with the imagery of their show.

 Also, John C. Reilly is on it often.

This is my favorite sketch.

It's the bee's knees. Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job is the best show, and the fact that it is so polarizing just makes me all the more fanatical. I understand why so many people hate it, though. From many, many perspectives, it can only be construed as a holocaust on everything that is good. Not my perspective though. From my perspective, it is the fucking BOMB-DIGGITY.

I feel as if (so far) the second season is not quite living up to the standard set by the first, but it's had its moments (namely the Snuggler).


And yeah Bob Odenkirk has fallen pretty far, but I feel as if T+EASGJ is redeeming him.

If by "redeeming" you mean "furthering his decline" then yes, I agree with you. I'd say Tim and Eric is like Mr. Show removed of all intelligence and style, but that would be an insult to Mr. Show.

Redeeming was meant by redeeming. If we can't agree that Tim and Eric is at the very least better than Let's Go to Prison... then... I don't know, I suppose we both feel how we already established we feel?

I love this show with a passion. I try to explain to my boss on a regular basis how awesome this show actually is.


I had a chance to meet Tim and Eric, and because I felt like way too much of a fangirl, and a loser, and because all of my friends hate this show with a passion and I didn't want to go alone, I didn't go.

I fucking love this show but I haven't seen any of the second season because it's on at a shitty time.

However, I own the Tom Goes To The Mayor DVD set and I think they're fucking geniuses.

Truly, an amazingly polarizing show. I, too, send clips of this show to my friends and co-workers who think it's complete dogshit.

I don't really watch TV very much, actually. Mostly because it's filled with shit.

Like this. Only the other shit is just bland, whereas this show is so bad it is like it is actually crapping in my eyes when I watch it, even for mere seconds.

 Well if you don't really have any other television shows that you think are better can you really call this shit?

 Wait, of course you can. Your opinion is still shit though.

Well, if we restrict it to Adult Swim, Metalocalypse, the Boondocks, Venture Brothers, Futurama, Frisky Dingo, Home Movies, Harvey Birdman, and Moral Orel are all better. If you're talking strictly about original Adult Swim shows, then strike off Futurama and Home Movies from that list.

Either way, the show is terrible.

 Metalocalypse is all kinds of great. The Boondocks sucks pretty horrendously recently, though I used to like it. I didn't know the Venture Brothers still came on, since it has been more than a year since there has been a new episode. Frisky Dingo is complete shit, Home Movies has ended, Harvey Birdman is over (I think?) and Moral Orel is great. I think the point is how can you not like Tim And Eric?

 Naw, I guess I'm just bein' mean because Metalocalypse and Tim and Eric are the only shows I ever watch.

He "mentored" Tim and Eric. Now he's "mentoring" another, slightly less dumb pair of dudes on Superdeluxe. Simon and... something.

True story: I really had to take a shit the night this episode came on, but since the show is only like 11 minutes long, I figured I would just hold it. When this sketch came on, I literally almost shit myself laughing.

I'm going to sit here in stunned silence for a moment. It's one thing to like a show such as Tim & Eric, it's quite another to put it above something as titanically awesome as Mr. Show. Compare this and this.

See, I think it's just the opposite. Season 1 and 2 were uneven, whereas Season 3 and 4 were unmatched. I also don't think the lows were anywhere near that frequent.

Tim and Eric isn't THAT bad, but every single other show I've ever seen ever in the history of everything is far far better.

I wouldn't even pretend to like this show to avoid an argument.  I watched the first five seconds of that first posted clip and new it was worse than Tom goes to the Mayor.

Why anyone above the age of mentally retarded seven would enjoy this show is why I hate American white people so much.
