    A pretty funny show in my books but 6 episodes in the first season? That's not worth the price tag they put on it.

    Powers, the central character in the strangely compelling new HBO series Eastbound & Down is a down-on-his-luck pitcher whose glory days in the Major League are well behind him.

    What lifts Eastbound & Down away from mere crudball humor is McBride's ongoing love affair with the lower middle class.

    If you thought "Tropic Thunder" was the funniest movie of the year and that everything Will Ferrell touches makes you laugh until you squirt Diet Pepsi out of your nose, then you will love Eastbound & Down.
