Anyone else watching this? It stars Danny McBride, and Will Ferrel is one of the executive producers (and plays a hilarious BMW salesman). Steve Little is also brilliantly creepy. Absolutely fantastic, in my opinion. If you're a fan of the Trailer Park Boys, you'll probably dig it.

I'd post some clips, but they're certainly not TalkBass safe. Do some Youtubing if you're curious--there's plenty of clips.

Some friends from grad school were in love with this show. I've yet to see it, but I am interested.

Its on HBO, I'm not sure of the airtime because I've only seen it on DVD (the first season was only six episodes including the pilot, but its been picked up for a second season next year).

The first season DVD is about the price of a CD, though.

Very cool to hear there will be a second season! That show is laugh-out-loud funny, and McBride's girl is hawt.

I was expecting a Smokey and the Bandit reference.

It's pretty good. Some parts are meh, others are hysterical. I agree with the Trailer Park boys reference, but it doesn't come close enough for me. I am slightly biased though....

saw the first season, very funny.

seems like it is danny mcbride sort of molding will ferrel's old impression of john rocker from SNL, and making it into a full length show. good stuff, indeed.

Great tune. Movie was cool too. Sally Field not wearing a bra sure was a treat when I was 10.
