"I'm a bulletproof tiger"

This was great, looking forward to more. I died laughing when McBride stood up in the pool, facing his brother, silent, for like ten seconds. It's one of those improv things that McBride does that I can't explain why it's funny, it just is.

The scene where he was walking down the high school hallway in slow motion with the kids cheering him on was great when it cut to reality and no one was paying attention to him. I'll give it another shot, but that's about it.

It seems like various actors and writers have been hyping Danny McBride as this great comedic genius. I really don't see it. He had a karate dojo bit on Conan a while back that got only a few confused laughs, and he was tolerable in Tropic Thunder. I didn't see Pineapple Express. I'm just expecting this guy to knock me out based on hearsay and it doesn't seem like its going to happen.

I caught up with this on 'On Demand', And it's been funny as hell so far. I admit that I like Sandler/Ferrell type humor. But getting past the John Rocker thing, we all know this guy.

My favorite line so far "...And then, you take a little time off from being unstoppable...just to...regroup...and relax..."

This show is gold. Although I think the inspiration for the show is more Rod Beck than John Rocker.

the 4th episode is the best so far:

I watched the first episode last night, hilarious!

The scene at the dinner table with his brother was priceless...

There are a bazillion hilarious moments in the first five episodes. And while some of the show is totally lame and poorly done, the funny shit is off the hook.
