It's bittersweet. The show gets a second season, but most of the awesome supporting cast probably won't be coming back.

A man can get used to Andy Daly on his TV every week.

Where did you hear that about the cast?

I just assumed it. I don't think they could have Kenny Powers sticking around his hometown teaching gym for another season without there being at least some dropoff in quality. They did it in the first season, they nailed it, now they need a change of scenery.

Still, no matter what they do, I trust in McBride and Co. to make it entertaining and hilarious. The first season was pretty much flawless.

Could happen the same way that Alan Partridge flipped from the first to second season. You missed the hell out of Susan and Sophie, but you get the insanity of Sonja in return. Andy Daly's character probably SHOULD BE out, but when you consider who might actually be on board for a second season, it's pretty impressive. I know I would absolutely LOVE seeing Kenny Powers living in Tampa with an absolutely insane woman whom he loves dearly. And I'd love to see someone like Kevin Dorff hop on board in some form as some Floridian overtanned wannabe entrepreneur if he'd be up for it.

I'm going to take a guess and say you missed either part or all of the last episode.

Assuming you mean the last episode of EB&D, I suppose I figured he went to Tampa anyway. I saw him as the type of guy that would show up just on the hope that they would realize they made a mistake and put him on the team.

Besides, having been to Tampa, he'd fit right in. There's this rare blend of really big South Georgia style rednecks and annoying/arrogant NY transplants that is just perfectly unbearable.

We have no idea what kind of crazy shit Kenny Powers is going to get himself into. Or what kind of psychotic break Andy's may have. We'll just have to wait and see and channel our faith into the glory that is Kenny "you're fucking out" Powers.

(But I know it'll be great. I'm JUST SO DAMN HAPPY.)
