Eastbound and Down
Eastbound and Down: Kenny Powers, a former baseball phenom, who, after spending his millions and burning all bridges, returns to his high school to teach physical education. The delusional Powers (he still wears a mullet!) insists that he will return to the majors. Until then, he makes a play for his former high school flame, now an art teacher who is engaged to the boring, by-the-book principal. He runs roughshod over his brother and his disapproving wife, who allow Powers to live with them and their children. He lures the idolizing nerdy band teacher to the dark side.
How I lost a Disc story #01192010
So my wife and I have been watching this series for several months now. We bought the entire collection on DVD last Christmas. So we get to the beginning of season 5, the final season. We watch the first episode, which ends on a pretty good cliffhanger, but exerting great discipline we decide to wait on the follow up and watch our latest Netflix movie instead. We do, and I pack up the Netflix disc and send it on back. Later, I go to put our TV show back in the DVD player and realize that the Netflix movie is still there. But didn't I send that back? Oh yeah, that was our TV show disc. Turns out that Netflix does not keep track of what disc you send back and had no way of knowing we sent in the wrong one, so they just gave us a credit for our loss. Long story shorter than it could be, we found that pesky lost disc here and are very satisfied.
