Kenny Powers and Eastbound and Down

HBO's Eastbound and Down is 4 episodes into its first season , and not one show has let me down. Danny McBride (The Foot Fist Way) plays Kenny Powers, a washed-up former pro-baseball pitcher, with an unchecked ego and an unchecked mouth.  Due to his shattering descent from athletic eminence (adeptly illustrated in a prefatory scene in the first episode, directed by David Gordon Green), Kenny is forced to return to his old hometown in North Carolina to teach P.E. and live with his brother, Dustin and his family in suburban subjugation.  Luckily, similar to former Real World cast members and Hosea from Top Chef Season 5,  Kenny is a legend in his own mind and strives to make it back to the big leagues to recapture his lost fame, success, and high school sweetheart to boot.  What makes Eastbound and Down great television is that you hate, love, are utterly disgusted, and brazenly entertained by this  juiced-up, dipshit braggadocio.  This show is just simply hilario. CHECK IT!  

Note: Only 6 eps in Season 1.
