That link doesnt work.
What does it say? They are extending its run, even though its one of the lower rated series shows on cable tv?

I'll let you work out your own tech support problems and read the gory details.
But essentially - Will Ferrell and Adam McKay were executive producers of the six-episode run. Ratings grew as the series went on, finishing with 950,000 viewers tuning in for the season finale.

That many people probably tuned in cause they figured it would be the SERIES finale and wanted to say goodbye.
Im not impressed with that number anyhow. As to that link, it does not even work on my Blackberry, so I think you fudged it somehow.
LOL - you are acting like a "6 episode run" was as monumental as the miniseries ROOTS.

You said it wouldn't last....it lasted.

Of course it was renewed. You already knew that when you read it in the perfectly funtional, up-and-running link that I posted.

Well, in theory I was spot on. The show was a ratings dud, and from all accounts its a miracle it was renewed, with its paltry audience. In fact, most stories I have seen are stunned it was, going just by viewership.
Here's the going take out there.
I thought we'd seen the last of Kenny Powers after episode six. Eastbound & Down wasn't exactly a ratings success. The series started the season with only 671,000 viewers and never even reached a million. So revel in your small victory that the show is back (and not until 2010 to boot) - I will revel in my larger one that the show failed to get an audience, just as I said it would.

I dont understand why Tom is so bent on the failure of some random ass show he doesn't even like or watch. What difference does it make?
The show is awesome and I'm glad it's back.

Fuck Yeah Bitches! Kenny fuckin' Powers will not fucking die! Suck on that one Tom, you don't know dickey doo about what the people want. And it has been confirmed beyond a shadow of a doubt, the people want Kenny fuckin' Powers. Ah ha, Tom was wrong, the rest of us were right, how sweet it is. I'm def getting the Kenny Powers shirt now, I need it for the second season, and to piss people off as much as my Denis Leary shirt that looks like the Obama Hope pic, except it say's NOPE! That gets me a lot of heat, but the Kenny Powers shirt would trump that.
What great fucking news to wake up to.....fuck yeah, Kenny's coming back mother fuckers.
