Most of what I seem them doing is acting like faggots with each other.

I don't find them funny. Absurdist humor has a limit before its just lazy.

You probably don't understand how anticomedy works newsummers.
>>69663752
I do, I just don't think they're funny. They're schtick is too repetitive regardless of the sketch. It's stale once you've seen an episode or two.
I love how there's always that one faggot who goes "If you don't like it then you just don't get it."

No, they're just shit at anticomedy too.

>>69663863
I respect them more than most comedians in that they stick to what their "message" and don't stray into current events in any way. I get what I expect with them. It's just nice to see something mocking all TV and movies equally.
>>69663861
Kaufman kept it straight laced to the point where it kept the illusion going. Him reading to his audience is still one of the funniest things a comedian has done to me, just because how he never breaks form.
Tim and Eric don't commit enough to make it work. The ideas are too absurd, yet the delivery and the actual jokes are too dull. It's attempting the same joke in multiple sketches with no alteration, and it's dull.

at the London premiere/Q&A of this they turned the entire crowd against a fan that asked a question and he got so buttblasted he almost took a swing at them.
>>69664123
You really can't answer this question for yourself? Okay, I'll bite. Back then it was fresh. Now this style has been run into the ground to the point where it's stale. Still, this isn't the "ha ha" kind of humor to begin with. The live audience is there to laugh, so that's what they did. The audience does sound rather vapid, laughing like people kneel or stand in church, almost zombie-like, but I can appreciate the material as viable performance art.
I think they're brilliant but their work is a clear example of an acquired taste.
Some people can roll with the madness and others are turned off by the manic nature of things. Understandable really and I don't begrudge anyone that hates it because in many ways its very abrasive.

Please post something funny Eric Andre has done. Everything I see by him is just some "DUDE I AM A DISGUSTING HUMAN BEING LMAO". I would love to be proved wrong.
I think Tim & Eric are quite hilarious
My grandparents, however, do not agree.

10/10 THE NEXT COUGH MAN MAY BE RIGHT HERE BROWSING WITH US
The disappointing thing about TAEBDM was that it wasn't based on the Adult Swim show that most of their fans are familiar with. I kind of hate Tim and Eric, but really enjoyed Awesome Show for some reason.
The movie had NONE of the material from the show. It was barely even like it, which was a shame. The only thing I really remember from the film was Dobis PR which was pretty funny. Other than that, severely forgettable. However, I'll probably be saying "SPAGHETT!," "For your Health" and "Salame" for years to come.
They will never top tom goes to the mayor tbqh
>>69669794
it was fun in it's own way, it still had their signature brand of humor imo
Tim and Eric humor pretty much sums up everything I hate about the generations that came after mine.
Except celery man. Which was hilarious and I'm willing to bet those idiots had nothing to do with it aside from have it on their show.
>>69663470
Here we go, another T&E/Eric Andre type hate thread. You don't get the humor or just don't like it. Congratulations, you've formed your own opinion. They are popular because they're great at what they do. Their show is an excellent parody of public access television. Look at all the big name comedians and actors they have on the show. Dr. Steve Brule, for fucks sake. If professional comedians think it's funny, then it's probably funny. I didn't like them at first, but they're great of you give them a chance. Take note of all the little details in each episode. Posters in the background, the makeup, the dedication to whatever character they are playing; they put in the work and it shows. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's not good.
>>69671042
Damn. Just found this on Google.
https://m.reddit.com/r/TimAndEric/comments/2c45ww/the_inspiration_for_celery_man_i_had_no_idea/
I just made a post defending them, but it seems like a lot of their sketches aren't really original ideas. Shit.
>>69663470
When a comedian isn't funny and knows they aren't funny, they try to hide behind a veil of irony -- "It's SUPPOSED to be bad / stupid / awkward! That's the joke!"

Tim Heidecker is literally the greatest comedian the human race has ever produced. You are a pleb if you don't like tim and eric--sorry! them's the facts.

>>69672641
Go to bed, Tim.
Why are their interviews better than their show?
>>69663470
They are funny. As usual, /tv/ has to be contrarian to the point that something is the best thing ever, and then at a later date complete and utter dogshit with no room in between.
>>69664273
>their work is a clear example of an acquired taste
agreed. i refused to watch them for years because i hated their faces so, so much. now i love them
>>69663861
They're the final evolution of anticomedy, comedy so advanced it's not funny at all, but people still watch it.
Like a trainwreck.
>>69672984
I wish I was tim. He's really got it made.
>>69672896
they have a few bad bits but literally everything else is 7/10 and above, most of it landing in the 9-10 zone. Sorry you can't see that! watch more of their stuff, you'll get it.
>>69672079
>>69672002
yep, this is obvious satire. If you confuse this for plagiarism you gotta be a real dumb guy.
>>69671042
my dad is sixty years old and he's a real big fan of tim and eric. it ain't an issue of age, just taste.
>>69669794
I will agree that BDM is not their best work, probably a 6/10. A few great gags but a lot of filler. Spaghett, for your health, and salame, while great are pretty entry level T+E
see >>69664273
almost everything truly great takes time to appreciate, ask any wine or music or movie afficionado. Just watch them more and you will understand why it's literally leagues above all other comedy.
I appreciate what they try to do, but the whole parody of public access shtick doesn't work for me. It misses the whole point of what makes public access and amateur work funny. It's how genuine and earnest the amateurs are that makes it good. What T&E do just feels empty in comparison.
>>69673105
>contrarian
This is the accusation that people use when they don't know why they like something, but can't tolerate dissent.

>>69663470
I hate everything about Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job.
However, I very much enjoy Check it out with Dr. Steve Brule and Bedtime Stories.
I have not seen the movie. Which is it more like? An actual narrative supporting the weird jokes, or just a stew of hit or miss like T&EASGJ?
ive plenty of sketches by them that were hilarious to me, off the top of my head the free real estate gets me giggling
but other times i dont laugh
i appreciate that there doesnt seem to be another comedy act like them, however. perhaps the idea of doing quirky weird uncomfortable shit isnt unique but their execution is unique enough for me to at least find their stuff interesting if i didnt laugh
What about alt-right Tim & Eric?
>>69675830
not really comparable at all besides being "quirky/weird" humor
i love MDE though

not anywhere near as subtle, or talented. I've seen less than 20 minutes, so if someone can point be to some good clips I'll watch. But it was literally just super try-hard tim and eric. Like they always try to shoe horn some vague message or faux-deep observation in their videos but it just comes across as teenage edginess.
With Tim and Eric is almost entirely absurdity, no faux-intellectualism.
The only kind of meaning of Tim and Eric style stuff is that everything is terrible and so the only way to continue living once you realize that is to learn to enjoy the horrible qualities of everything.
one of the all time great bits
I can't help but smile at this guy.

love T&E
On Cinema I think is Tim's best work. It's crazy how small it started and how huge and ambitious it's become. They built this huge world full of rich and interesting characters in the most unexpected way. The fact that Gregg's entire online presence and most of Tim's is kayfabe to their silly online review show is so much fun for me as a fan. Tim plays such a perfect villain. And him throwing all the abuse week in and week out at a guy that's at a guy like Gregg is perfect. It's the perfect dynamic. Their personas play off eachother beautifully.
I really love Awesome Show, Tom Goes to Mayor and so on, but On Cinema is just so much more consistent and so much more rewarding to the viewer. I think the fact that it's a web show causes a lot of people to just write it off as some unimportant side project when really I feel like it's something way more ambitious than anybody of the fans possibly could have imagined it would be.
>>69671867
The make-up work is amazing in awesome show. For instance the way they do Tim's eyebrows up for the Universe bits really complete the feel for what they are parodying. I can't explain it properly it's just that when you look at his eyebrows you know that they fit perfectly in this setting. The show is rich with subtle make-up stuff like that on its characters that just really complete the picture of what they are trying to parody. Once you first notice it, you'll always be looking for it in skits and appreciating it.
>>69672042
