they done made it

holy freaking moley.

tim and eric get their moment in the sun with the NYT, and dave itzkoff totally sticks the landing. he totally gets what the dudes are all about, and puts it in plain english — a task i thought was impossible.

so that's good for newbies, but for superfans, here are some stunning revelations:

The Brule character has proved so popular that he is being given his own six-episode spin-off show, tentatively titled “Check It Out!,” starring Mr. Reilly and produced by Mr. Wareheim and Mr. Heidecker. “So much happens in a day of him improvising and us throwing stuff at him that you want to use it all,” Mr. Heidecker said of Mr. Reilly.

and uh:

Mr. Wareheim and Mr. Heidecker are also developing a game show for Adult Swim that would star the comedian Neil Hamburger. Mr. Wareheim described it as “a mixture of a Japanese bizarre game show and ‘The Price Is Right.’ ” And like everyone in Hollywood they would eventually like to make feature films. (“We’d like our first movie to be a pretty pure Tim and Eric vision,” Mr. Wareheim said, “before we get sucked into the Apatow system.”)

a NEIL HAMBURGER GAME SHOW??

and all of this in the same week that the house of representatives apologized for slavery. good job, america!
