atommanhattan Do you like watching two retards act like four year olds on LSD? Then this is the show for you. If you like your comedy clever and witty, or dumb and yet well-crafted, then avoid this show at all costs. Quite possibly one of the finest examples of low-brow, dual-digit IQ pandering garbage on TV these days, there's a very good reason so many people hate this show, and why their films as well, are ripped by everyone with a relatively intelligent sense of humor- it's trash, and nothing about it is funny. One fan used the word 'sophisitcaed' to describe the type of comedy presented in T&EASGJ!, and I'm not entirely sure that person understands what the words means. If there is one thing this show is NOT- is sophisticated, unless sophisticated has suddenly become synonymous with the lowest form of toilet humor.

Stoh80 Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! lies at the extreme end of the comedy spectrum spectrum. Never before I have I seen a show that maxes out on outrageousness, goofiness, and non-jokes as this one does. A surrealistic, satirical campy sketch show hosted by comedians Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim, this show cannot get any more ridiculous, and that is why I love it.Tim and Eric is a parody show, but what does it parody? The simple answer is everything. From faux-commercials, to news programs, to random musical numbers, the viewer soon finds that Tim and Eric does not spare anyone. Many reoccurring actors and guest stars make sure that each episode, and more importantly each sketch segment, is radically different from the last. Even mid-segment the mood can drastically change, going say from a campy mattress commercial to a demonically dark dream sequence. With outrageous, completely unbelievable characters and plenty of just as ridiculous costumes and makeup, the visuals alone are enough to have me cracking up. Though there is hardly a coherent plot, each episode does an overall theme that more or less connects the individual sketches to one another.I fully understand that Tim and Eric is not for everyone. Most will probably find it way too over the top, but it is exactly because of that I find it original and enjoyable. Though their show is very chaotic, after watching a few episodes one will see that Tim and Eric have created their own extravagant world, complete with overlapping and reoccurring characters and stories. Cinco, Channel 5 News, and Spagett are just a few of things that the viewer will find in Tim and Eric. This is definitely a show that I had to give a few episodes, but after I gave it a chance I can see why it has a cult following. I now eagerly await Tim and Eric's Billion Dollar Movie, which I hope will be every bit as outrageous and surreal as their show.

lil_mantooth Its the best show on TV for me. But again like everyone is saying its not for everyone on purpose. They keep getting funnier season by season, and season one is hilarious.and for the naysayers saying don't watch it it isn't funny..... Why do Ben stiller, will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, john c Reilly, Michael cera, Ted danson, David cross, will forte, john mayor, Elisha Cuthbert, Rainn Wilson, The lonely island, Bill Hader, and Zach Galifianakis get on the show? Because people with a great sense of humor love the show. If you haven't't seen it watch it and enjoy the ride!!! And if you don't like it....then good more show for me.

sheepherder1234-1 Randomness can be funny when done correctly, however just being random doesn't automatically mean that something is funny. I watched numerous episodes on many different occasions to try to give this show a fair chance and to see what all of the fuss was about. What a waste of time. This show seems to be compiled of sketches where the writers feel that if they put down the first thing that pops into their head then it will automatically be funny.I've heard people describe this show as being "genius" or "ground breaking" and telling people that if they dislike it they just don't "get it" and must be into lame, predictable comedy. Hardly. This show is typically liked by hipsters who fancy themselves to be on the cutting edge of comedy and think that the more absurd or nonsensical something is, the more intelligent and genius it is. Kind of like people who go to modern art shows and rave about what a genius someone was for putting a snow shovel out on display as a work of art.The series is filled with just a bunch of random things happening that are supposed to be funny just because they're random. Here's an example: Two men are sitting in a restaurant having an orange juice drinking contest. One man, a plumber, drinks so much orange juice that he turns into a giant chicken. The other man, dressed as a graduate, drinks so much orange juice that he begins vomiting uncontrollably. Then the plumber-turned-chicken runs across the room and dives headfirst into a stack of yellow rubber duckies. The end. That was something I wrote off of the top of my head that is in a similar vein to the skits shown on this horrible series. Hardly genius, just completely stupid.As I stated earlier, randomness can be funny when it's done correctly (examples are Stella, Aqua Teen, and of course Monty Python, etc). Simply throwing a bunch of random things out there and calling it a comedy sketch is anything but funny or genius.
