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

"trying" as in watching other episodes to see if i was just not into a particular one, just like you can "try" to get into an album by listening multiple times - is that so difficult to understand? I chuckled during some Zach Galifinakis-featuring sketch but the three episodes I watched were profoundly MEH.

I won't get too detailed but what was so appalling to me was their brushing off of fans who had waited many hours to see them, made handmade gifts, stayed way late etc. their attitude was very "whatever, we've got better things to do" - not busy and distracted but blase and bored, and they accepted gifts that were purposely left behind, didn't bother chatting with any of these people. at the signing acted like they'd rather be anywhere else. then did an interview with them in which they didn't play ball at all, meaning yes/no answers to questions that could have easily led to funny anecdotes/explanations. after three or four of these i was like 'okay, thanks for coming' and closed the interview after five minutes. they practically ran out the door.

yo sorry, the quotes around "trying" in my post prob made it sound more dickish than intended. for me, it's rare for comedy to be unfunny without being irritating and unpleasant. T&E especially, i think, lie on that funny/irritating binary.

otoh, there's guys like louis ck, who i found just kinda boring but not groan inducing or anything. was much more inclined to check him out again after a friend's recommendation. so yeah it goes both ways.

and then there's strangers with candy, which i actually found totally obnoxious and nauseating at first, until it grew on me and started to make me lol. so yeah it's not as simple as "lol at first sight", i guess.

i think they're artistically irrelevant after being beaten at their own game by icp

this season has moved into unwatchable and not funny

but i watched the room on april fools day and thought to myself "i want that wiener guy to be in a real movie" and then the next day i saw this!!

If things continue this way, 3 episodes from now they'll have Brad Pitt or someone on the show.

Sadly, things won't continue in *any* way - that Rudd clip is from the series finale from last Sunday. The show's done for good!* (That said, the "Father and Son" short film from HBO has me very excited at what these guys could do with something not as ridiculously paced - it's their best work, I think).

(* The Steve Brule spin-off show starts very soon, though)...

Oh really they're done for good huh? I'm OK with that, I know Tim and Eric aren't finished doing projects so I'll be looking forward to what they do next (besides the Brule show).

Tim Wareheim's little known dark side: HEALTH - We Are Water

I guess that would be Eric Wareheim's little known dark side.

lol @ hat wobble

kinda happy it's over - this season was easily the worst. no new ideas. i thought that father + son thing was pretty weak also. for me the hectic pace and psychedelic visuals are key to their style.

this is still my favorite bit from this show

I like the wrongness and secret evil of the show, but I dislike the bathroom humour.

I really like the actors other than Tim and Eric such as David Leibe Hart and friends. They are such biscuits of worth.

it's a british. i can tell from the 'humour' and 'biscuits,' and from reading posts by quite a few britishes in my day.

not England -- NEW ENGLAND

LOL @ the computer in that sketch using the Earthbound font

NUDE TAYNE

need a .gif of 1:09-1:12, hes doing the sam cassell

came here to post that. it is basically the funniest thing i have seen in a long time

"now TAYNE i can get into"

the way rudd sells it, the casual coffee-sipping / concentration, like he's a pro working on a tough but intriguing problem = pretty fantastic comedy performance

"are you sure?" "mmmmHMMM"

yeah this was epic

watched it so many times

The print out of Oyster smiling kills me

yes

"now TAYNE i can get into"

oh man

"are you sure?" "mmmmHMMM"

Sadly, things won't continue in *any* way - that Rudd clip is from the series finale from last Sunday. The show's done for good!

I was poking round on YT (its hard to find clips of their shit not on AS!) and there was a promo for some thing they did with Zack called "Just 3 boyz" and it was insanely strange - wtf is it, a new show theyre doing or some one off thing?

oops meant to italicize that first bit.

i know the last 1 aired on 'funny or die' on hbo -- yah it was v. funny & i have a low tim & eric threshold

this show is over for good? :( I find it insanely funny. this season wasnt as funny, though. I do not like the bathroom humor AT ALL. i love their regulars - james quall, richard dunn, etc. i will miss them :(

Yeah, "Just 3 Boyz" and "Father & Son" were from HBO's "Funny or Die Presents," which was made up of sketches from lots of "big name" alternative comedy scenesters. It was amazing how traditional and - for lack of a less obnoxious term - safe the other material was next to the Tim and Eric stuff.

The "Check it Out with Steve Brule" promos have been cracking me up: http://vimeo.com/user2972231/videos/sort:date
That show starts tomorrow on Adult Swim.

I agree that the gross out/bathroom side of what they do is not nearly as funny or interesting as the stuff where they obsess over the basic horrors of technology (i.e. Tayne, the Tairy Greene Machine, the Cinco Phone (which is possibly my favorite sketch from Awesome Show), etc.).

Yeah I love T&E but when the spewing and "bloody balls" and stuff comes up I have to hide my eyes. Hate spew.

But the show overall is so fucked up and crazy awesome. Hanging out for S4 coming out on DVD (I think I said that upthread somewhere)

The Cinco stuff with Jeff Goldblum was A+++.

There's another Funny Or Die sketch on its way (Morning Prayer With Skott and Behr), which has already leaked, if you know where to look (my$p133n).

I really adore this song:
