While this show carries the Tim & Eric torch of whacky, surrealist humour in 'late night broadcasting' format, it differs greatly from the rest of their work, and holds the position for the scariest thing they've ever made. Tim and Eric create a tedious form of awful quality like no one else, and their shows make me laugh like no one else's. One thing is for sure about both, on first glimpse it looks like it was thrown together sloppily in minutes, but there is actually comedic reasoning and timing for every joke, every bad edit and every cut in and cut out. I cant judge which I like more, because for me I consider this just an extension on the Awesome Show. Where do they get these people!? Adding structure to comedy like Tim and Eric's seems like an oxymoron, but it works, maybe not for everyone, but for me.
Whether its Doug Prispreed's confusing sport reports, Terry Bruge Hiplo's offpaced movie reviews or Carol Krabit's useless predictions, I'm dying from laughter every time. The new characters more than hold a candle to the old, and are probably some of my favorite parts of every episode. If I didn't know about it, I could easily see it playing on a local channel. Just as in Awesome Show, the comedic timing and editing is spot on, and this time it even further parodies every local access show ever made perfectly. Every guest he has he mispronounces their names, he's always cut off mid-sentence and he has some severe family problems, but miraculously these jokes make me crack up each and every time. Steve Brule was never one of my favorite characters from Awesome Show, I preferred the the oddballs like Richard Dunn, David Liebe Hart and James Quall, but this show managed to round him out more and give him more quirks and nuances that are infinitely hysterical. Whether or not this is better or worse is up to opinion, but one thing is for sure, it's completely hilarious. Whereas with Check it Out, we have a "normal" set up and flow to each episode. Beyond a few repeat characters and skits, the episodes didn't link at all and neither did the individual parts of each episode.
With Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job!, Tim and Eric created an environment where they could do literally anything and it didn't matter.
