First aired on FX at the end of last year Eastbound and down is another quality offering from HBO starring Danny McBride as Kenny Powers, disgraced washed up Baseball star who returns to his home town with nothing but a lime green and leopard print Jet Ski and his own motivational tapes, and becomes a PE (or Phys Ed as the Americans say)teacher at his old high school.
The show has a powerhouse central performance but also great supporting players.
It's now available on DVD and is the best piece of comedy TV in a long time.
Get it!
