Eastbound & Down on HBO

Same. How can you not love watching that idiot jetski to his party wearing the Uncle Sam costume? Also, did anyone catch Baby Gorilla getting a hummer inside the party tent?

 

Andrea is really hot. Certainly nudity will be required of her before the season is out, yes?

 

It better be.

 

I thought this week's episode was decent. But I laughed out loud when Casper asked Stevie if he caught cancer. I don't know why, but it made me chuckle.

 

Well, thank goodness that's over.

 

Thought the finale had a few laughs. I'll miss Steve.

 

The last two episodes had some laughs, but it was still bad.

 

A couple of laugh-out-loud moments, but nothing to write home about. Not sure I liked the way the season ended with the cliche "I'm not really dead" finish. It would have been better had they just killed him off.

 

Or if they left him on the mound, he blows the save, but realizes he has a lot more with April and whatnot.

Cheesy, but better than "Dead!" ... "JK!" That just pissed me off.

 

You know that wasn't just the season, but the series finale.

 

Yeah, that's what made the "Dead!.....Just kidding" moment all the more worthless. Makes me think it won't be the series finale after all and that Kenny Powers will come back, but baseball won't be a part of the "new" show.

I don't know. I was just a little disappointed by the way it ended. I actually thought him dying would have been the perfect ending, considering his "larger than life" persona.

 

I enjoyed the finale. From Kenny storming into the classroom with "Don't panic! This isn't a school shooting!!" to Stevie explaining to Kenny how exactly he knew Maria was pregnant ("I held the stick under her p***y, Kenny!"). Also loved April's "What in the fuck!" line at the end. Shane's brother trying to imitate Kenny in the mirror was pretty good.

That said, the first season remains the highlight of that show. Last two seasons were mediocre, but that's cool. After that first season, I was in it for the duration.

April: Why did you fake your own death? Couldn't you have just pitched for Texas and had us come stay with you?
Kenny: Um....no....that wouldn't have worked at all.
