Am I the only one not very impressed by Vice Principals?

It just seems like Kenny Powers with even less of a reason to think so highly of himself.

I thought the pilot was pretty good but ep 2 was awful.

I enjoyed ep 2 simply because it turned a lot darker than I thought it was going

It's ok. I would much rather be watching The Brink after Ballers though. Thanks, HBO.

I only watched the first and it seemed a little rediculous for me, but I laughed. If the second episode is worse I don't know if I will stick with it.

E2 is a marked improvement over E1.

It's not as funny as Eastbound and Down but it's watchable.

Walton Goggins is carrying the show.

No.

I hope it gets funnier. I am not enjoying Kenny Powers nearly as much in this setting.

Every character McBride plays is virtually identical: loud, obnoxious, over-confident, and thoughtlessly oblivious to reality. Even when he played himself in This Is the End.

One of my best friends works for Danny McBride and Jody Hill on everything they do as a "writers assistant". I talked to him yesterday about the show, and he said it gets darker and funnier each episode, especially Walton Goggans character. If you liked the second episode it's only going to get better. They have already filmed both seasons and they're only doing two

I thought episode 1 was pretty boring. The part about affirmative action was funny, but otherwise I thought it was bland.

I'm about halfway done with the first episode. Probably going to pass. I get the concept, the leads are doing a good job acting, but I don't connect with anything in it.

Danny McBride


Dude should get more work. I tried EB&D, but the character only works in small doses - he definitely owned it. He was fantastic in Tropic Thunder.

Someone should make a movie where McBride and John C. Reilly are brothers.
