Yes!!!!!! Eastbound and Down is amazing, this should be great with Kenny f'ing Powers!

I'll never be able to look at Boyd Crowder the same after this:

MIGHT be NSFW...click at your own risk. (I don't think it should be...but you never know)

He'll always be Shane to me.

I don't get the appeal of Danny McBride. EB&D was horrible at best.

That. Goggins has been brilliant in everything he's been in for years He killed it as Shane, steals every scene he's in as Boyd Crowder and was freaking hilarious on Sons of Anarchy. I have high hopes for any series he's in.

EB&D was downright painful, cringe-comedy has never been my thing and McBride was so over the top in that it didn't even work as a parody. I hope that was just the series/role, but McBride always struck me as a guy that could be funny in small doses and completely insufferable the more screen time he gets.

Still, just by Goggins alone this is on my radar and the subject matter sounds like it could be a lot of fun. There's a lot of comedy to be mined in high school politics from the teachers perspective instead of the students picking on other students.

Had me at Goggins.

Lost me at McBride.

This, tbfh. I know Goggins as Boyd Crowder, and he's awesome. McBride, however, doesn't have any talent.

Shane FTW!

I love both these actors.

Kenny f'in Powers!

I enjoyed that show, but the schtick got old pretty fast. I still watched it for the occasional Will Farrel appearance and his perpetually-tortured buddy. Forget that guy's name, but he was hilarious...if not a bit too creepy at times

Walter Goggins?

 

[RossMAN]

Shane FTW, reminds me how much I miss that show.

 

[allisolm]

Walter Goggins?

Exactly. As GagHalfrunt said "Goggins has been brilliant in everything he's been in for years He killed it as Shane, steals every scene he's in as Boyd Crowder and was freaking hilarious on Sons of Anarchy. I have high hopes for any series he's in." The least we can do is get his name right.

Season one of Eastbound was pretty brilliant. It was all downhill from there.

I had to google who the hell Goggins was...he's a definite 'that guy' to me. But I agree with the sentiment that he's a pretty goddamn good actor, and he does comedy very well...despite the fact that he seems to get typecast as creepy psychopaths more often than not.
