Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim expand on the live-action material featured in their previous show Tom Goes to the Mayor in Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!. It features several characters and segments seen in Tom Goes to the Mayor, such as Gibbons, the "Channel 5 Married News Team", and the Cinco Corporation with its variety of useless products. New recurring characters and sketches include "Uncle Muscles Hour," a cable access variety program hosted by a gravelly-voiced "Weird Al" Yankovic and Channel 5 News Correspondent Dr. Steve Brule, played by John C. Reilly. Each episode is weird, absurd and totally hilarious. The DVD has all 10 episodes of Season One and special features including deleted scenes and promos. There are a ton of excellent guest stars including Michael Cera, David Cross, Zach Galifianakis, Patton Oswalt, Rainn Wilson and more. Each episode clocks in at a scant 11 minutes, making Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! an ideal short term but hysterical late-night viewing choice for fans of Wonder Showzen and Mr. Show with Bob and David.---Kira Canny

5.0 out of 5 stars Drink up July 14, 2008

By A. Redmon

Format:DVD

The scene cues and we are introduced into the blank stare of an awkward and uncomfortable looking doctor. His ill prepared segment on fruit cannot start because, as the doctor tries to subtly inform his colleagues, he does not 'have the fruit'. After several clumsy attempts by the camera operator to break the awkwardness of the situation, we catch the backside of a quickly moving production assistant dropping a bag of freshly purchased supermarket fruit in front of Mr. Brule. It works.

Almost if by force of habit we expect a punch line at this point. It doesn't come. Our minds reel as the plot is pulled from beneath our taught fingers. No climax, no story development, no comfort lead in music. Shortly thereafter you realize you are only invited to participate in the haphazard denouement of this story - you are riding the thing down into the glorious and hilarious catastrophe that it was meant to be.

As we let the show aspirate, we can detect notes of dark comedy and satire on commonplace social norms. The sketches are often full bodied and rely on tongue-in-cheek jabs at poorly executed social posturing (Strategies in Leadership, Carol and her Boss) or the miserable failings of those with little savvy (Casey and his Brother, Shopping Indoors). This show is a big cab with strong hints of spite. Good to enjoy now or a few years down the road. Although much like a good bottle of Monty Python, Tim and Eric will only get better with age. If neither suit your taste, I'm sure a bottle of Who's the Boss Zinfandel would suffice.

There's more than meets the eye with this show, if you know where to look. Chances are, if you don't, Tim and Eric are probably making fun of you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deprogramming for the TV generation November 23, 2008

By Duncan C. White

Format:DVD

Many people dont like large chunks of their lives being ripped from them and exposed as being horrendously stupid. Most of us spend a lot of our lives watching television, its almost completely unredeemably artificial and crappy. This show pokes fun at it all. They manage to do it in an entertaining and humorous way not in a preachy or nasty way. Many people are unsettled by the material because its uncomformist and intentionally off key, I personally enjoy the change.
The DVD doesnt get old the work is dense in a good way and new things appear in it on every rewatching. When I am watching some completely retarded infomercial or tv show on the tube. I sometimes just start laughing as I realize how absurd the whole thing is as something from Tim and Eric pops into my head.
Some bits dont work 100% but I give them 5*'s anyway for putting it all out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply amazing April 9, 2008

By J. Nichols

Format:DVD

There is no show today better than this. Think of pee-wee's playhouse meets robot chicken. It is amazing. Tim and Eric awesome show, great job! has all the awesome and funny things you'd expect from tim and eric. Awkward pauses, weird facial expressions, funny dances, weird situations, etc. I love all kinds of shows like Mr.Show, Human Giant, Robot Chicken, Invader Zim, but out of every show ever made this one is my favorite. I don't know what it is about these two guys, but they are the funniest two people to ever live. If you thought their other show Tom Goes To The Mayor was good then you NEED to see this, its even better.
