    The jokes take of on all sorts of unexpected trajectories--foul balls that score. [12 Mar 2012, p.45]

    McBride celebrates the Southern-fried dirtball culture of flyover America like some "Red State Diaries"; it's a veritable HBO "Hee-Haw."

    Eastbound & Down holds together so well that it's worth looking past the ugly for the solid performances and the charcoal-black humor beneath, particularly in the final episodes, which delve into Powers's family history.

    If last season was The Empire Strikes Back, though, season three is slightly more Revenge of the Sith than Return of the Jedi.

    Best comedy show out there right now besides South Park. Kenny Powers is the greatest prick of all time and talks like a lot of blue collar Dads out there. Perfect mix of sports and comedy, it your sensitive or uptight than this show isnt for you. Heck even if you are this will show you to loosen up alittle and make fun of things more. Now with Jason Sedakis as Kenny's right hand man, it took this show to another level along with bringing back season 1 love interest, April. Kenny is back and better than ever just wish it was an hour long show not half.… Expand

    This was easily the best season of Eastbound and Down. Kenny's view on life is hilarious and there is never a dull moment. His interaction with his teammates is priceless.… Expand
