animated series was pretty good. when are they making more?

for some reason "A Walk Down Joemery Lane" is making me laugh a lot today

Tim collaborating with Weyes Blood on his latest track!

Animated Decker pilot has been unpaywalled: https://www.adultswim.com/videos/decker/the-animated-adventures-of-jack-decker-pilot

animating Tim's mangled line readings is funny, but it could also be a good gag if they obviously edit his audio around them in any theoretical future episodes

Neil Hamburger calling in to Office Hours with COVID tips back in June.

In Tim's IG stories today someone asked about the future of OCatC and he suggested that Adult Swim was less than enthusiastic about the show... which seems crazy right?

Well AS has so much other great content rn so

Noticed that in the stories too. Made me curious as well. Decker question had the same exact answer.

I don't really find it surprising. it's a show which could only appeal to total heads. not going to win over many people flicking between channels. the youtube episodes don't even do particularly spectacular numbers. they have to fundraise to make the Oscar special every year. seems very much like a labour of love from them rather than something adult swim is keen for them to keep making

Tim always seems to have a chip on his shoulder when it comes to stuff like this so who knows. You’d think Adult Swim would let him do whatever he wants by now.

well, there's all those production expenses to keep in mind

Was gonna say, if AS decides not to proceed with On Cinema, I have a full jar of change that I'm willing to donate to a couple seasons' worth of production costs.

i can donate a used hanky to use to help clean off the lens

right now they're definitely just blowing cool air on it

last i checked, tim's production company produces quite a few shows for adult swim, so i'd imagine his low-budget passion project isn't going to get the axe any time soon

Abso lutely!

(and Netflix too)

last night's debate reminded me so much of the last few Oscar specials

needed more hobbit songs tbh

needed more carbon monoxide

Ryan Phillippe (Crash, Cruel Intentions, Gosford Park, ex-husband of Reese Witherspoon) is apparently a deep On Cinema head?

He was a guest on Tim's podcast, and I think they mentioned that he partially funded one of the Oscar specials(?)

That is amazing, I had no idea.

Wooow. My gf was watching Phillipe's hilariously uber-shitty Shooter tv series and I swear I kept thinking 'this is exactly like Decker minus the self-awareness' but maybe I had him all wrong. Might have to revisit.

I mean

The show stars Ryan Phillippe in the lead role of Bob Lee Swagger, a retired U.S. Marine Corps sniper living in seclusion who is coaxed back into action after learning of a plot to kill the President.

How could I have been so blind

Looking back, it seems like he's more in on things than it would appear:

Looks like he's dusting this character off:

you know for years I thought Tim was supposed to be Trump but now I realize he's Don Jr.

I recall an interview where the interviewer noted that Tim looked Trump-y in season 11, and Tim responded that the look was more like Eric Trump

Decker is way more Trumpular in mien than OC's Tim

God, just the relentless intro music:

The special is tremendous

I hurt my stomach laughing

lmao it's so good

i'm glad he stuck it to that opera guy

I somehow knew he was going to come back out and play it straight :(

you know how it happens when you're going through your coronas

dog named sheff

I enjoyed this but it seemed kind of an empty exercise w/o the rub of an unwitting audience...would love to see this set in some small podunk room seeded w/just enough Tim fans to prevent him from getting run off the stage.

lost my shit when he brought up mike huckabee

Neil Hamburger is so ott that it doesn't matter anymore, he's still funny, but those earliest shows were so good

really good arkansas accent impersonation too

Honestly I didn’t think the Neil Hamburger thing would work with an audience that was in on the joke but it was probably the funniest live show I ever saw

yeah he's still so good

Wish those clips of Neil Hamburger on Kimmel were still up and around. It's so great to see both the large studio audience and much of the celebrity panel in a state of befuddled disgust.

lost my shit when he brought up mike huckabee

I didn't notice Tim's fly was down until he was talking about Huckabee, which was kinda perfect

really good arkansas accent impersonation too

I mean, when you talk about how great his Jack and his Bobby impressions are, I think he really needs to start adding "Mike" to the mix.

I was just sitting on the couch, going "he nailed it," over and over.

It’s unbelievable, but you gotta hand it to him!

I mean, you could try, but i bet Tim doesn't take any hand outs! ("handouts")
