ShaniFaye · 09-21-2005, 07:42 AM

who watched!!

I did and I have to say I thought it was pretty funny if you get past the Me, Myself and Irene beginnin and the fact that I cant watch that girl who plays his ex wife without hearing her in Joe Dirt "Im you're sister, Im you're sister"

I think my favorite line in the show this week was from the daytime hooker "I even pulled out my good boob!!"

I will definately watch again next week.

Bacchanal · 09-21-2005, 08:57 AM

I've been meaning to watch this show, but I can't seem to find out when it's on. I thought it was Thursday night...?

I need to pay more attention during commercials I guess.

ShaniFaye · 09-21-2005, 09:13 AM

The first show came on last nite at 9pm EST

Bacchanal · 09-21-2005, 09:18 AM

Shit! On NBC, right? Like I said, if I'd paid attention to the commercials during The Biggest Loser (I swear I was playing my PSP, and not actually watching the show), I probably would have seen/heard them say something about it coming on next.

I hope they re-show it soon, and now that I know when it's regularly on I can actually watch the rest of the season.

LOTS of repeats over the next week, on various channels, both on regular channels and on Bravo. Looks like they are anticipating word-of-mouth, and want to help people catch up. I'll have to be one of them; I saw the 2 minute preview on TiVo, and it looked exactly like Raising Arizona - and that's a good thing.

Jim Kata · 09-21-2005, 10:27 AM

Great show! I'm glad people liked it. The "It takes two" scene both times was fabulous. I already think that Randy will be my favorite character.

"Dibs"

pixelbend · 09-21-2005, 10:29 AM

Just watched it (bittorrent, baby!) It was great.

The "good-boob" line floored me.

thatoneguy · 09-21-2005, 10:36 AM

Dang, I missed it! Looks like I might have to try and find it online like pixelbend

spongy · 09-21-2005, 06:22 PM

Finally, Jason Lee has a showcase for his talent. It kinda reminded me of Scrubs, in that it was well written, funny, and poignant at the same time.

Wow, Ethan Suplee has ;ost a lot of wait since I last saw him.

Fremen · 09-21-2005, 09:23 PM

My favorite parts were Spoiler: what Earl ended up buying first with his new money (car alarm w/remote-control, for his raggedy-ass El Camino), and when Randy Spoiler: gets clocked with the phone by Earl's ex.

Oh yes, Randy's beer limit is 4 beers!

guthmund · 09-22-2005, 07:18 AM

The show was excellent.

Earl in a trailer, robbing people, two kids; neither his, a cheating wife...

I laughed for 10 minutes straight. I imagine it's because I know people like that and...well, I'm kind of a dick.

[karma]...straight from Carson Daly's mouth to my morphine laced ears.

dirtyrascal7 · 09-22-2005, 07:25 PM

I'm scared to keep watching this show. The first episode was great and set things up so perfectly, I now have high expectations that I'm afraid won't be fulfilled. I think the concept is great and the characters fit so well with it... if they were anything other than complete hicks, this show would be completely lame.

Can't wait for next Tuesday!

Mojo_PeiPei · 09-22-2005, 09:30 PM

I loved it, thought it was all around hilarious. Hopefully I can remember it's spot, it's refreshing to watch something non-reality.

Also anybody notice how much weight Randy had lost? Come along way since his enforcer role on boy meets world, or more importantly since his role on American History X.

Exactly, except he's lost a lot more weight than wait when I last saw him :P

I was really impressed, and will be checking out the next few episodes to see how it goes.

Beer Can Tag is a great game.

BurntToast · 09-23-2005, 02:18 PM

I had first heard about this show from an 76 year old guy that I work with and then forgot about it. Then reading this thread I decided to get the show and watch it. I have to say I was really impressed. I just hope, since they set the bar so high with the first show, that they can keep up the same quality level.

radioguy · 09-24-2005, 03:49 AM

i watched it and enjoyed the hell out of it! i now have 2 shows that i will have to schedule my life around.

***i'm not as pathetic as i sound

Sorry for being slow, but whats the other show ya like so?

Xazy · 09-25-2005, 02:01 PM

Not bad, considering there are few new good sitcoms. Going to watch the next few, and see then if it will become a show I will have to watch.

JustJess · 09-26-2005, 07:05 AM

I was so relieved when I watched this... because it was damned funny. I was worried that they put Jason Lee into a shitcan, but this was lots of fun, and I actually giggled out loud.

quadro2000 · 09-26-2005, 07:09 AM

This show was so much better than it had any right to be. I really figured it wouldn't live up to the hype, but I was wrong. I laughed out loud quite a few times. (I'm SO happy there's no laugh track.) Jason Lee is a fantastic actor. Hopefully the rest of the season will be just as good. I think they can get a lot of mileage out of the show's premise.

J-DaWg · 09-26-2005, 07:25 AM

a very promising show. Very few shows can actually make my laugh like that. Fantastic! Beer-can tag is sooooo good!

pixelbend · 09-28-2005, 04:53 AM

Last night's show was great. I loved the large print bible!

ShaniFaye · 09-28-2005, 04:57 AM

I didnt get to watch it!! but we taped it so I will get to see it today

was it as good as the first one?

I loved it when she smacked him across the head with it...THREE TIMES!!

This show has a lot of potential. I've always thought Jason Lee was funny anways.

pixelbend · 09-28-2005, 05:12 AM

I just finished our MythTV box at home so I had it paused until we finished dinner so we could see it.

I thought it was as good as the first one. "How poisoned?" ha ha!

Fremen · 09-28-2005, 08:26 AM

Funniest part to me was when they were trying to smoke the carrots.

dirtyrascal7 · 09-28-2005, 03:23 PM

I have to admit that after watching last night's episode, I'm kinda disappointed.

It was funny and all, but it's only a half-hour long... each episode should be a FULL hour.

Latch · 10-05-2005, 02:49 AM

I was really surprised by the third episode. The second one wasn't as good as the first, so I thought the show would keep going downhill, but I was wrong about that.

Having Joy (his ex-wife) get hit by the dark side of Karma for what she did was a great idea, I hope they can keep that type of stuff up throughout the series.

You have great taste in TV if those are your Musties .

The wife and I watch waaaaaaaay more than that regularly, and hafta try to catch up this week. Here it is Sunday night and we haven't watched Lost yet this week. Of course the new job she got and second car we got are partly the reason.
