So who is watching this? This show CRACKS ME UP. Though last nights episode was the weakest yet.
Some of the songs are just so freaking funny.

i love this show.
last night was weak, but i did crack up during the bedroom/scene/song when he was all "and then you'll say something sexy like, 'is that it?'"
two minutes in heaven IS better than one minute in heaven.

eagerly.
you're waiting eagerly… unless you are nervous about seeing them, then anxiously would be the correct term ;)
this is one of my biggest word choice pet peeves.

I'm a big fan. "The Mugging" is my personal fave.
Even went to see 'Eagle vs. Shark' starring Jemaine this weekend. The guy cracks me up….

I think you can watch some of the episodes at hbo.com and they are definately up on youtube if you can stand it on the small screen…at least check out a video or two…I recommend "Part Time Model" or "I'm not Cryin'".
I've actually seen all all the episodes at least two or three times.

Well, at the end of your life, youâ??re lucky if you die
sometimes I wonder why we even try;
I saw a man lying in the street half dead,
with knives and forks sticking out of his leg.
And he said, â??Ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow, can somebody get that knife and fork out of my leg please?
Can somebody please remove these cutleries from my knees?â??

You are correct. Thank you for correcting me.
Now learn capitalization and we'll call it even.

wow what a drag - think of how useful those extra stations would be, now that you're not having all those three-ways and have a lot more extra TV-watching time on your hands (among other things… :eek: )

I heard about them months ago and was fucking ecstatic when they got their TV show. I don't hae HBo but i've been downloading the episodes every week.

btw, the first full length episode is available for free on itunes. i have the biggest crush on jemaine right now. wondering how the shark movie is…it got lackluster reviews, but that's typical for something with off-beat sense of humor (which i generally enjoy).

actually, i didn't care for ND…i think i may have laughed once during the whole flick. i know i'm in the minority with that opinion.

we saw them at bonnaroo, and quite honestly, i was bored.
but they are much better on television, with a production behind them.
