After throwing pitches in the major leagues, baseball star Kenny Powers (Danny McBride, PINEAPPLE EXPRESS) takes the ultimate demotion: teaching physical education at his former middle school. Nevertheless, Powers's truculent personality is still intact as he clutches to the vestiges of his fading celebrity--and schemes about returning to the stadium lights. This hilarious series from HBO was executive produced by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay.

Eastbound & Down is myopic, but in typical HBO fashion, we get a very clear image from the high-definition source.
... a cable series created with the same collaborative spirit and improvisational approach of Will Ferrell's movies, and it's funnier and sharper than Ferrell's last couple of pictures
Only six episodes? We need more. A lot more. This is classic stuff, Danny McBride, Will Ferrell & Co. are amazing. Well written, funny as hell, just watch it.
