I like it, but I don't see it going past a season, I mean they only gave Tenacious D six episodes.

I think this show is pretty great, but will definitely be canceled with the swiftness.

bit.

well that really lets me down then

because it seems they are rehashing songs from their stand up special into their actual show.
I get it.... its nice to make a music video, but seriously the stand up was already funny.

This show is definitely pretty dope. "The Most Beautiful Girl In The Room" is the jam right now man. That's easily my favorite one that they've done so far. Does anybody know what that is a parody of?

their songs are original.. not parodies

i was late to appreciate.. but the show is excellent. the dialogue/dynamic/delivery is money all around and the songs are actually well produced.. which makes up for them not always being hilarious

hopefully season 2 gets made
