no, sorry, that's not what happened deric

x-post - omg!!

Also, I still don't see what was so confusing about my post. :-( oh well.

And I agree, I think Danny would be 100% on board with posting here and that it would be 100% awesome if he did. Let's make this happen.

i just watched season one via netflix. didn't know anything about the show, and had the same reaction as many here. was kind of unsure 'til i think episode 3, then fell in love with it during episode five. will probably buy the dvd, even though it's only six eps. seems to have great replay value. i must now see everything else McBride is in. didn't like him much in Tropic Thunder, but enjoyed him greatly in Pineapple. foot fist way is on netflix queue now.

He's v funny in hot rod

just watched season one episodes 1-3 on The Netflix. oh man so choice. this is my current favorite show ever!

Wow, Katy really does have that southern babydoll voice.

man this is great.

i know this is ridiculous but i kept thinking that this is a classic post-cold-war tv show. the superpower is suddenly just a normal country in a multipolar world, with even pipsqueaks like afghanistan posing a challenge. and the only way to keep going is by pumping yourself up with a bunch of feel-good bullshit.

i've never seen tropic thunder or pineapple express so danny mcbride is a whole new thing for me. wow. his steez is so real. i know several guys like that, or who wish they were like that. will ferrell came off like a goddamn amateur in the scene they had together.

i've only seen the first two episodes so far but does the love interest ALWAYS look like she's just been cold-cocked by a 31-inch hillerich and bradsby white ash?

he doesn't have much to do in 'tropic thunder' but he's etienne geoffroy st. hilaire in 'pineapple'.

<3 <3 <3 DM

pineapple express would have been a failure without his presence

Just bought some other movie he was in recently that may or may not be about karate but haven't watched it yet.

i just realized that when tombot gets older he's going to look exactly like this guy:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0370035/

OK I can totally see that but I think it's also a little harsh on Tombot. That dude is sorta busted looking fraternal twin.

Yeah, that is way harsh Tai.

really? i think John Hawkes is pretty handsome! maybe his nose is a little mashed.

i would so hate this show if it starred will ferrell. i don't know what danny mcbride brings to it. could it be.. acting?

Wait - is that the guy that plays K Powers brother? He's better looking in general than a lot of the pics on IMDB but I still think he's a way hagard version of Tombot.

he was also great in deadwood

x-post "harggard" obv. too early.

omg I give up

LOL

who else is psyched for the hagar HBO show

He is a motherfucker with some dark secrets, it will be fantastic.

wonder if broomhilda will show her tits

actually danny mcbride as hagar and john hawkes as his twerpy sidekick could work

deadwood guy is writing it

we should do a thread on what comic strips should become HBO shows... i'm voting ADAM

dagwood is kinda mad men-esque

haha

dag men

i watched a couple more of these and my opinion has soured. it's really just incredibly thinly written. if there's a plot point or a character is struggling with something, well, you can bet the writers are going to hammer-drill it into your brain about 5000 times in time-honored apatow/snl fashion. at first i was like "wow gina gershon, awesome!" and then what happens with her? nothing. and kenny's "fuck buddy" - the writers don't allow her any reality, they just rub her nose in how awful she's supposed to be. it's like some kind of iron man competition to see who's capable of rising above the shitty material to actually seem real.

pineapple express would have been a failure without his presence

but whatever, danny mcbride is awesome and hallelujah for this showcase for him.

xpost heh yep

also hallelejuah for a show with at least a couple of real southern accents.

that does not include farrell's. jesus christ, he veers between black southhern preacher, white alabama and some other shit.

i don't know how fair it is to expect a show to get into really deep character development in six half-hour episodes and still have like jokes and a plot as well

tracer wants more development of herpes girl!

honestly, if you read through the thread, i was ambivalent about this show around episode 3, but a true believer by the end of episode 6.

when's the next series start?

dude the entire show is hopelessly about 'character development'.

not than an accent has anything to do with that. I just wanted to bash ferrell, really.

yeah what cutty said. if u read the thread most people went from slightly ehhh to fully omg with this.

ferrell is weirdly off in his first appearance tho, yup.

Tracer Hand otm about everything

"you look like a retarded michael myers"

hay tracer hav u seen ep 5 - cause if not WATCH IT and report back

^^^^^ yes.

... dr cock'n'balls.
