i think kenny will discover that he's ready to be a major league dad, possibly husband.

no way he's going to the majors and well a dude who makes a toddler toy by shoving a vibrator up the butt of a t-rex will never be a major league dad BUT he will live in denial of it all as long as he keeps the mullet and boogie board :D

Anyone seen 'Your Highness?'

it's really bad

yeah, there are about a handful of decent laughs, but you've gotta sit through a lot of crap to get to them

Not sure why the vibrator/dinosaur combo is bad parenting? it was pretty cool and probably a lot safer than some of the electrified toys I used to have.

Looking forward to tonight but sad it's all over.

uh

decent ending

favorite line was "now that you've decided to be a man, you should own a manly water recreational water vehicle"

that ending was A++++++

lol welp you cant say they didnt do it up

i legit teared up twice during this episode. such a great show.

Kenny's genuine shock when he heard he was being called up ("You gotta be shitting me") before he got back in character felt like a long-awaited payoff.

totally-- its really amazing how sincere and real McBride can play such an over the top character, such a shame he can't do it any more

gr8080 OTM

I wept during the ending of this. This season was genuinely deep and beautiful.

otm best show ever

I'll miss Kenny Fucking Powers.

I don't think anyone's mentioned Stevie's wigs!

Just watched the whole run of this show for the first time. Pretty good, but I'm not 100% sure I get it. Some of KP's speeches are funny, lots of the serious moments and stuff are genuinely touching.

But then you have Will Ferrel stepping in and just being obnoxious. I'm sorry, I just really have grown to loathe him. He's not funny, he just gets by on silly voices and calculated wackiness. He's a bullshit unfunny comedy mogul like Adam Sandler, only maybe more pretentious.

This show was fun to watch, but it felt like it really had a lot of ideas packed into a short space. The tone would be serious and genuinely affecting, meaningful montages happening, and then we'd be stuck watching Ferrel pull out some dusty sub-SNL southern redneck stereotype, requisite gross-out humor intact.

Kind of wish KP had stayed in Mexico a little longer and developed with the team down there (the coach there was my favorite character), and I kind of wish there was more reality calling him out for basically acting like a spoiled baby. But yeah I guess that's the point, he's sort of an anti-hero. A huge baby who always goes on about how big a man he is but can't handle anything. The very last episode at least redeemed the character.

I read an interview with McBride where he talked about Jody Hill and David Gordon Green having such different styles, that they would just write to fit their strengths (or something to that effect), which is there can be some tonal differences (i.e. Ferrell's rich buddies firing cannons at KP).

Also that stupid wig WF had on. It was a "Look at how wacky I am wearing this wig!" wig.

Prob hard for the writers to say no to Ferrell though, being a producer and all.

I agree that his style of comedy (over the top, overplaying) is at odds with McBride, who tended to truly inhabit the soul of KP.

...and therefore the scenes between them were always kind of awkward

i totally get why people think farrell sucked but i still thought he was hilarious, cant help it

yeah same here

Well at times it felt like the KP character could basically have been played by WF and it would be right up his alley. But far less subtlety.

HBO has picked up a 4th season.

!!!!!!!

8 episodes i think.

WHA?!

lol I thought it was over

Still reaching for the zenith. Blast off bitch.

nice that katy fucking perry is pumped about the news

I love this show so, so much, but I feel like they nailed it with the end of Season 3.

I really don't like that @kfuckingp Twitter account - I seem to remember that some fan dude started the account and quickly picked up a shitload of followers, and then he was reluctantly allowed to carry on. Whoever runs it seems to use it to either sell stuff, try to creepily get freebies, or to just generally not really get the humor that makes the show work at all. Maybe that's not the case anymore, but it's just kind of a bummer.

i recall seeing the @kfuckingp account break character around the end of S1 and mention it was a paying gig and he was looking for work now that the season was over

Might be a bad move, it was very satisfying to leave it on an almost perfect run.

Can't imagine this show failing. Even a fail would be a victory.

i finally started s3 last night and am now haunted by the line "this gorgeous sunset is rockin' my nuts off"

when does s4 start?

Stevie Little contributes mightily in this movie about dude finding himself in a coffee shop:
