wilkinsonalan-19160 Maybe it was the first two episodes - but, I wasn't really hooked by them. I came back to the series - and it turned into one of the funniest series I have ever seen. There are some cameo performances by the likes of Don Johnson, Matthew MaConaughey and Sacha Baron-Cohen. It is ironic that SBC was in this series - as he appeared to do something similar with Brothers Grimsby in a British context, but fell so short, sadly, of the standards achieved in E&D.Stick with E&D - it is remarkable - crass, but laugh-out-loud funny and still manages to be endearing. Kenny Powers' utterings are so politically incorrect it is more of a lens on the kind of folk who genuinely come out with such cringe-making observations.This series deserves much wider appreciation as it is a stand-out piece of work that amazingly gets better and better./

joelleronny Just to tell my story.I am not a guy who watches much series, but after coming home from new 5 day party roll suddenly, I found myself in a position where sleeping was no option. Suddenly out of nowhere this strange series came to me in the middle of the night.Oh my god! How I can relate to this life, strangely enough! More funnier, real, and more down to the real earth you will never find! This is who we all want to be, not Justin Bieber!Be real, men!It doesn't get cooler than this!

I_Eat_Moths I believe this to be one of the funniest comedies ever to come out of America. It is written in the style of English comedies where the main character is not a nice person and compares with some of the best programs ever written in the UK like The Office or Alan Partridge.The cast is quality and although I feel season 1 is the best, it still maintains it's high levels of cringe, childishness and comic genius throughout the other seasons.Danny McBride is hilarious and he somehow makes you warm to his character even though he is one of the most selfish, self-centred and obnoxious people you are ever likely to meet.Absolute gold, can't wait for the 4th season.

Joel Mellor When I was trying to pinpoint what separates E & D from routine, run of the mill comedy, I always came back to two things; the characters and the music. The use of certain tracks over sequences that are often slow motion seems so perfect that it can create any tone the director wishes, whilst still keeping a underlying feeling of comedy. The non-diegetic sound comes to the forefront of your attention, creating so much more meaning than images simply could (although E & B would probably still be funny if watched on mute).It could be argued that the tracks are selected with an self-knowing nod, and some possibly are selected to be slightly ironic. However, it is the sense of honesty and at times empathy that allow them to fit in perfectly with the images seen on screen.It is easy to concentrate on the quotable one liners and well developed characters when discussing why Eastbound & Down is funny. I would argue however that the way music is used is as important as the previously mentioned criteria.
