EAST BOUND AND DOWN. THE KENNY POWERS STORY
« Thread Started on Mar 23, 2009, 12:51pm »
Thought I would let you all know about the new tv show out in the usa called "East Bound and Down".

Its about a washed up baseball player and is made by Will Farrell from old school, anchor man and all those movies.

Very funny show.

I doubt it will come out in Australia and although downloading shows are frowned upon by as all there is some places where one if they were so inclined could download the show from.

Agreed. Show is brilliant.

Fave quote:

"I'm gonna go and swim some laps and run a few miles after work. You'd know what that's like Kenny?"

"No I wouldn't. I play sports. I'm not trying to be the best at exercising"

The man is a dead-set genius.

I saw the first episode last night. It was vulgar, but it was good!

Yeah its never going to win any prizes for political correctness, but it is funny. I think it would appeal to most baseball fans.

Seeing as it is high on Johne's recommendation list it I took the liberty to check the 1st seasons episodes (6) (30mins per episode). (+18)

Yes, as stated previously, rude and crude and definitely funny. They seem to be able to get around the USA prude police as it is shown on HBO cable network.

Check it out

Thanks to the world wide web, no longer are we tied to the bland schedules that the monopoly tv providers force upon us.

PM me if you would like to get the episodes mentioned above and I will arrange.

Can't post the Videos here of course... WAY too many f bombs.

Search Youtube for "Eastbound & Down - Opening Scene" or Kenny Powers,

I managed to find a distributer from Sydney who sells the DVD online. You can pick up the first season for about 30 bucks.
