Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job - Christ Almighty this show is funny.

This is ridiculous. The boycott begins now.

I just have to content myself with the fact that these dudes aren't as precious about curating their material as I'd personally prefer or I really would have to abandon ship.

You didn't even mention Bicycle Built for Two (which I only own a copy of on the basis of an absolute fluke of having looked at the contents of a random McSweeney's).

that these dudes aren't as precious about curating their material as I'd

it’s just some nerd who’s done it, not them. once you get to the parts of the On Cinemaverse where the story goes back and forth between episodes of different series in different genres every week, you’ll see how ludicrously, magnificently precious they are

had not heard of Bicycle Built For Two, but from reviews it seems to have been written by the IRL Tim and Gregg, not the fictional characters?

some nerd

(I do assume as a college project in web design or database building or similar, given the massive attention to subsets and categories and filters, and very minor interest in story. It’s v v impressive at what it’s doing, just not at being a “timeline”! As a viewer, you’ll be far better off switching to the fan-created youtube playlist around the middle of S4)

Thank you for showing the true path. I want this to be the truly enriching experience I know it can be.

Yes, I suppose Bicycle is by the 'real' Tim and Greg, much like the heralded Yogi Bear pamphlet

hilarious that this is going on 10 seasons now and not once during the show is Tim as enthusiastic as he is in the title segments

'When you've got movies like Tom Cruise in them, you can't go wrong' gets me every single time.

Any site that doesn’t include the Tim and Gregg calls to The Best Show cannot be recognized

Okay so now I also have to get caught up on the last couple years of the Best Show, this is becoming a more herculean endeavor than I ever would've imagined.

Laws of physics demand at least one bag of popcorn but it is a sad, lonely bag with no salt no butter and many unpopped corns.

Only the episodes from 3rd February 2015, 27th June 2017, and 20th September, 2018.

Well except that (in a fashion which I imagine is familiar to you) because I have listened to 15+ years of the Best Show it would basically be a crime against nature for me to cherry pick random episodes I haven't heard when it's clearly incumbent upon me to piss away hundreds of hours atoning for my egregious lapse.

Okay so just finished the second Oscar special and I think maybe that watching Tim get increasingly drunk and belligerent over the course of two hours is maybe the thing that had been missing from my life.

the ep where Tim & Ayaka review the One Direction movie is so good even though it did make me very uncomfortable

Every Hobbit reference and every Star Trek 2/4 debate is killing me.

Holy shit, Mark Proksch is a secret MVP of this weird-ass world. I'd assumed through all of these Oscar specials (I'm now on my third) that he was just another Abso-Lutely weirdo doing very poor impersonations of W.C. Fields and Chaplin when suddenly I was all, 'heeeeeeyyyy...he's the pie-sitter from Better Call Saul!' That he's able to so seamlessly pick up such a Quall-esque mantle without arousing my suspicions is a real testament to his skill as a performer.

speaking of not arousing suspicions, here's how he came to IRL Gregg's attention:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dj9VF7LyffU

also that you didn't realise until now either means you really don't notice him, or you're not watching the Decker episodes

Mark Proksch goes quietly from strength to strength. His character is as distinct as Tim and Gregg.

Watching it all through a second time at the moment and the full charm of Joe Estevez and the way his acting of obliviousness in a b-movie way slots into this universe is rapidly becoming apparent.

Decker: Classified is what made me go 'waaaaaaitaminute...' but I had my first inkling that something was up when Tim started chucking Chinese food at him (an indignity I wouldn't expect to see visited upon, say, Doug Prishpreed).

oh my god I just saw S5E2 which is where they get the footage for Turkington's original appearance in "Decker", this is absolutely brilliant

not to mention Tim's encapsulation of the American right, "while I stand by my position as a member of the pro-life community, when push comes to shove, when you are a part of that situation, choices have to be undertaken...because there was no way...I was gonna be in that situation"

Proksch is also great in the "What We Do in the Shadows" series.

GO TO THE LIVE SHOW IF YOU CAN! seeing Turkington in this context live is incredible. it's like the role he was born to play.

also you get Joe Estevez.

Decker is now integrated into the timeline website: https://oncinematimeline.com/#season-5

(no Best Show calls or Marvel movies yet, but IRL Tim was in the studio on the Best Show last week, with James Adomian.)

"so we put a little bit of bufo alvarius venom in the mix, that helps us regulate our brain waves so they are on the same level as, like, a master meditator, like a monk who's been in a cave for 20 years"
"wow, so it's good for your body"

Okay so just finished the second Oscar special and I think maybe that watching Tim get increasingly drunk and belligerent over the course of two hours is maybe the thing that had been missing from my life.

totally, I wasn't sure if I really wanted to continue after the first 15-20 minutes but holy shit does this thing go off the rails. I think they both (briefly) break character here:

Can you just post the timestamp? Link's broken

seeing gregg as gregg tomorrow and getting the book, so stoked

I think I know the moment frogs is talking about. I believe it's in this video:

Oh god, three seconds of 'Oscar Fever' are apparently enough to get it playing on a loop in my brain, thx Tim.

50 minutes in the first special. I think the picture of Billy Crystal gets him.

We got On Cinema movie

https://variety.com/2019/film/news/on-cinema-mister-america-gregg-turkington-tim-heidecker-1203256803/

looks like a six-bagger to me

well the scale only goes up to 5 bags but i'd throw in like a little gregg turkington key chain or something

btw tim is on comedy bang bang today

obviously it's five bags of popcorn AND AN OSCAR

one of my favorite bits is when Tim gives a movie 6 bags, then Gregg argues that you can't really give something 6 bags, and they go back & forth for a bit before Tim ultimately gives the movie 3 bags

gregg talked about the film irl the other day. said he's really happy with it and it might be the best thing they've done. we shall see!

imago you got to talk to gregg out of character??

Channel 5 (Adult Swim's new 24-hour Tim and Eric (and Gregg, as an On Cinema marathon is currently airing) online channel featuring four new T&E shows plus all the classics) is go!

http://www.movingimage.us/programs/2019/10/09/detail/no-joke-absurd-comedy-as-political-reality/

the way Tim's On Cinema character keeps failing upward while insisting the world is always conspiring to take him down feels pretty spot on

yellow river boys is by far tim's best music work:

Yes!!! "Someone To Piss on Me" and "Truck Stop Piss Club" are legitimately great songs. In fact I honest to god enjoy this entire album aside from "Mr. Mudd"

on a similar note the Neil Hamburger covers album from 2019 is way way better than it has any right to be
