I am a little late on this, but I have to post it because this is GREAT news! Eastbound & Down will be back for another season!



LOS ANGELES, April 8, 2009 - HBO has renewed the comedy series EASTBOUND & DOWN for a second season, it was announced today by Michael Lombardo, president, Programming Group and West Coast Operations, HBO. Production on the new episodes will begin later this year, with debut slated for 2010.



Starring Danny McBride ("Tropic Thunder," "Pineapple Express"), EASTBOUND & DOWN tells the story of Kenny Powers, who used to be a star pitcher until his self-destructive behavior knocked him out of Major League Baseball. In the first season of the series, he returned home to North Carolina to teach Phys Ed at the middle school he once attended, and eventually scored another big-league job offer.



"EASTBOUND & DOWN's raucous comedy sparked a loyal and enthusiastic following that grew throughout the season, and we're happy to bring the show back for more innings," noted Lombardo. "It will be fun to see what happens to Kenny in season two."



I am sooo glad the greatness that is Kenny Powers isn’t over yet. There was no way they could just let season one end like that and not have a season 2.



No word on when the second season will air.
