As previously announced in April, Tim & Eric’s Awesome Show Great Job has been renewed for *30* new episodes. The first 10 were absolutely some of the most amazingly mind-blowing, psychedelic, tripped-out, weird, absurd, and sometimes purposefully bad television episodes that I have ever watched. Think: Wonder Showzen (possibly the greatest show ever), minus puppets & children, plus public access television & creepy people. Anyway, The Onion AV club just posted an excellent interview with Tim & Eric. It answers a lot of questions people who watch the show might ask. In part of their quest for the absurd, and desire to satirize our culture, they made fake Shrek 3 promos. Of course the copylords had them removed, even though parody is fair use! You can read about the Shrek 3 promos HERE and HERE. Also: They have a live internet-only show, which can be watched (as reruns) HERE. If anyone can find these promos, or the late-nite show (as files, not links) please contact me. And now — some YouTube clips from the show. These will not last and will eventually be taken down. I suggest not watching sober. Read on for the clips…At least watch the Child Clown Outlet “commercial”:


^^ This is not what the show looks like.

 

 

 


^ “Sports” – musical for first half, then it really picks up. This made the whole room laugh non-stop and I’m still thinking about “felted holes” days later. Shows off some of their melodramatic, musical comedy.


^Tim & Eric beatbox. Shows off their psychedelic comedy.

“Casey” sings “Cops & Robbers”. Shows off their satire of public access television (which is a good portion of their comedy — making fun of the bad stuff they watched growing up).


^full-length episode “Abstinence”


^ Full-length(?) of “Dads” episode. NOTE: First 1m45s are kind of boring, and I’m not a fan of the “married news couple” sketches.

Anyway… My adjective for this show is “crack-tastic”. Watch it on Cartoon Network’s AdultSwim Sunday-night lineup (I think).
