Sometimes I'll eat a lot of Shawarma, it creates a sewage smell that keeps Wayne away from my spaghetti house.

Are there any other uses for pennis besides pee or sperms? How do you know if a lady WANTS a pennis in her vagina? Chairman Capone posted:Sometimes I'll eat a lot of Shawarma, it creates a sewage smell that keeps Wayne away from my spaghetti house. SPAGHETTI HOUSE

the video hiccups were completely awesome this episode. you couldn't teach anyone how to do them, you just need to have a long history of dealing with local access and videotape editing to get a feel for it i think. glad to see the tri-county area's only

Well that T&E opening was the funniest bit theyve done since Prices.

Sex is no laughing matter unless you get a case of the chuckles! Also, the bed scene was hilariously awkward.

Ehhh, I think they got the show's rhythm perfected in this episode, but the jokes in the first episode were much funnier.

that bed scene was retarded. I love Tim & Eric, but I was hoping Check It Out! would be more about bad VHS cuts and ridiculous interviews, not about repetitive absurdity.

One of the weirdest bits of the episode was the part at the very beginning where they mention a county-wide complete evacuation.

Although i think the show uses too many camera cuts to accurately pass for a low-budget public access show.

I hope next week we get another wouldn't that be cool segment, one of the jump cuts this week had it, but it must have gotten lost in the editing process. who cares

I wish there were more opportunities to use "schwarma gas" and "spaghetti house" in the day to day conversations.

The episode was funny, but yeah, I think Jan and Wayne made it way too Tim-and-Eric-y, for lack of a better word. The first episode was way more subtle and believable than Awesome Show, and the absurd appearance (and sound effects) of the Skylars kind of destroyed that atmosphere. I totally dug the bed scene though.

Man, no complaints about this episode from me. I watched it 3 times and it only got funnier. Jan and Wayne's appearance was amazing, and we finally see some action from those 2 star crossed lovers! What a plot development! My god... Steve saying roast beef referring to Jan's tits was the best, cos to me it seemed like it made Wayne think he was talking about her vergana. Well like, the bit where Steve says, "Right on her roast beef!" and it cuts to Wayne fuming, made it seem that way hah It's eerie how much Tim can look like a middle aged lady with a man's haircut. Also I finally got seasons 1, 2 and 3 on DVD and they're wonderful. But I'm a bit disappointed there's only commentary tracks on season 1, but that's okay, better than nothing at all! Have some screencaps! For your health.

Yeah definitely, this was billed as a dude who snuck in late at night and made his own show, but it was way too much Awesome Show. It's mainly in the sound effects, Awesome Show always has obviously added on sound effects like slurping and poo poo, any time the Skylars were onscreen it had obviously dubbed slaps and etc, took me out of it. I laughed my rear end off at most of it though, overall I thought it was funnier than the first one.

All restaurants are crappy all you can eat buffets or stark Chili's/Red Lobster/Olive Garden family restaurant chains.

The world of Awesome Show!/Check It Out!/Tom goes to the Mayor is a cultural and human landfill.

As much as I like that concept, wouldn't they all be speaking German? I mean, we only got a couple of German references, like Zwei Dunkel Jungen... seems a bit unfatherland of Tim and Eric. Maybe the show's so underground, even Hitler's son couldn't stop them. (I just wanted an excuse to post caps of Dunngeon.)

I was rewatching the first season today and I think one of my all-time favorite Brule bits is "I'm Dr. Steve Brule your greengrocer!" Just something about the way he rapid-fire spits that out (followed by the mealy apple, it's a terrible season for apples).
