- HBO Renews 'Bored to Death' And 'Eastbound & Down'

w00t! Love both shows.

 

[Subterranean]

Awesome news! More people need to see this show.

 

[CrankyJay]

It's a solid show.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Only two episodes left!

To be honest, I thought last night's was one of the weaker episodes.

Spoiler

It's good to know that George doesn't have cancer, though

Spoiler bro.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

Spoiler bro.

Quoting it doesn't help.

 

[AnkitT]

"Fuck you! I lost weight" :lol :lol

So fuckin glad that there's a new season!

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Yeah lost it at as well. Ray was fucking awesome. Damn good ep.

 

[criesofthepast]

George and the whole "pubic zone" thing was hilarious. Ray killed it again. This season has been brilliant. My favorite show on tv right now.

 

[Clydefrog]

Nurse: "Is this your son?"

George: "...Yes."

*tear*

 

[Viewt]

I think tonight's episode was my favorite of the series. It had a complete arc and it all felt really warm and poetic by the end. It also helps that the show's shot ridiculously well.

I really wish these seasons were longer.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Yeah tonight's ep was great. They made cock, tits, ass and puss so classy.

 

[Snuggles]

Great season, t'was over so fast

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

One more isnt there?

 

[RadioHeadAche]

One more isnt there?

Yes.

Also, I was not expecting that much male and female frontal nudity from this show.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Yeah i was surprised. They had shown some tit and stuff before but.......... not on that scale.

 

[criesofthepast]

Another great episode. So sad it's ending already next week.

The student Jonathon is seeing is so damn hot. I knew she looked familiar and I did some google-ing and found out she's the young secretary Leonardo Dicaprio sleeps with in Revolutionary Road. She was more plump in that movie and as I recall she shows her sweet rack in one scene. But she looks completely different on Bored to Death.

:/

 

[Incognito]

best episode of season last night. :lol ted danson, as usual, just kills.

 

[Cornballer]

Good stuff - really enjoyed the music this week along with their madcap adventure.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Nurse: "Is this your son?"

George: "...Yes."

*tear*

That was such a great scene.

The season finale's next week? For sure? Shit, I wish the season was longer.

 

[Clydefrog]

Wow, this past episode was fantastic. I think my favorite of the season.

For some reason, the way Vikram throws his newspaper in the air when they come running out of the spa got me :lol :lol

George ogling all of the ladies in the women's locker room :lol my reaction as well!

I really enjoyed this particular episode's scenery and lighting.

 

[dyls]

Both Bored to Death and Eastbound and Down took great first seasons and knocked them out of the park with the second seasons. HBO remains untouchable.

 

[criesofthepast]

That was a super great finale.

The real Jonathon Ames again making a cameo.

"I lost a lot of blood, I got 2 stitches" :lol

Good to see

Spoiler

Ray and Leah back together.

Going to miss this show.

 

[AnkitT]

Nice finale! Wonder what George will end up doing next.

 

[dyls]

Great finish to an amazing season. I wish more people watched this show. I think a lot of people were turned off by the initial awkwardness of the show in the first season. But it has gotten soooo good and funny and ridiculous.

"If he sticks a pencil up my twat and it hurts,...I'm going to regret this."

 

[Nappuccino]

The cast of this show piques my interest. Is it good enough to blind buy or is it more of a niche show?

The first season is a little hit and miss with some people, but personally, I really liked it. And the second season was far, far better. If you're intrigued by the cast, then this is definitely up your alley - everyone's used magnificently.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

What a great finale. I'm glad this got renewed, but not so glad that I don't have any Bored to Death for a while.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

God this show is incredible.

Now the wait

 

[seat]

I'm happy we get another season of Bored to Death, but is anyone else a bit surprised the show got renewed? I assumed the ratings weren't doing well enough to warrant another season. :lol

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

Ratings are overrated.

 

[Flynn]

The characters on this show are easily the most likable on TV right now. They make me happy.

 

[Danielsan]

Great finale. Absolutely love this show and I think it's a pity that so few people are watching it. I mean just look at this thread. Only 2 pages for an entire season.
So glad it's getting another season. Ted Danson is the man.

 

[criesofthepast]

I think last season Curb Your Enthusiasm was averaging about 1-1.5 million viewers an episode. That sounds pretty low for one of HBO's top comedies. Bored to Death was hovering around the 1 million mark as well.

These numbers are from the beginning of last season (S1 Bored, S7 Curb). Not sure how much has changed for Bored to Death but I can't imagine it being more than 2 million viewers per episode.

The show is really critically acclaimed. The show is probably very cheap to make too. Good on HBO for keeping it around. I find HBO is more than willing to give most shows time to grow and build an audience.

Look at Life and Times of Tim. I was shocked they renewed that for a 3rd season. I guarantee that is their lowest rated show and yet they still renewed it. That show is really funny. Wish more people would watch it.

Yea I really loved that finale. Very satisfying end for all characters.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Awesome episode.

Hope next year they'll have more episodes. I was left craving for more this year and last year.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

It's a great cast.

 

[Clydefrog]

Finally got around to watching this season's finale. So good. I absolutely love this show.

 

[Cornballer]

Good finale - they tied off most of the loose ends from this season and it was a nice finish for everyone.

 

[Cornballer]

- New trailer for S3

 

[criesofthepast]

Wow didn't know the new season was starting so soon. Doesn't seem like a year has passed since season 2 began. Time flies.

My favorite comedy on tv next to curb.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Looking forward to it.

 

[jon bones]

can't wait

 

[Clydefrog]

Excellent.

 

[params7]

I love this series. Didn't know S2 is on already.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Im ready one of HBOs best shows wish Eastbound was still after it.

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Im ready one of HBOs best shows wish Eastbound was still after it.

So totally.

 

[AwesomeSauce]

Hell yes!

I love Bored to Death and S2 was amazing.

 

[RadioHeadAche]

I had no idea there was a trailer for the new season. It's a shame it isn't starting until October. I just rewatched season two with a friend of mine recently, so I'm looking forward to this one.

 

[Clydefrog]

A bump is worth more than me.
