‘Eastbound & Down’ Comes To A Beautiful F-ing End On Blu-ray With The Complete Fourth Season Arriving This May

February 13th, 2014 by Aaron Neuwirth

I have been a huge fan of HBO’s comedy series Eastbound & Down and its ridiculous, foul-mouthed anti-hero character Kenny Powers since the beginning. I know some people are not big on Danny McBride, but I find him hilarious and this show, which he is heavily involved the production of, was a perfect way to harness his comedic energy over the years. The fourth season was an unexpected one, given the finality of its third, but dammit if McBride and co-creator Jody Hill didn’t find a way to make a truly glorious final season for the series. This series was always the story of a former baseball player and all-around horrible guy coming to terms with evolving for the better as a person, but in the craziest ways possible, making it plenty entertaining. On May 13th, everyone will have the chance to see how the sage of Kenny Powers comes to a close. Read on to learn more about this upcoming release.

Over the course of four seasons, Eastbound & Down has followed the comedic antics of the clueless, washed-up baseball legend Kenny Powers (Danny McBride), who enjoyed the fame and fortune afforded by his career, even if he was his own worst enemy throughout. With executive producers including Will Ferrell, McBride and Jody Hill, the final season of the hit HBO comedy series explores what life looks like after the glory days, and whether it’s ever possible to truly give up the lifestyle of being rich and famous. When Eastbound & Down: The Complete Fourth Season comes to Blu-ray with Digital Copy, DVD and Digital Download on May 13, 2014 fans of the hit HBO series will finally be able to complete their collection – and to find out whether Kenny is ultimately capable of getting his act together.

New York, N.Y., February 13, 2014 – Life has thrown a lot of curve balls to washed-up former major-league pitching ace Kenny Powers. After a disgraceful return to his hometown, a failed attempt at coaching, a soul-searching season in Mexico, a successful return to the minor leagues and a not-so-successful attempt at single fatherhood, Kenny finally hung up his cap to become a full-time family man. But can he ever truly say goodbye to the fame and fortune afforded by his baseball career? Find out when Eastbound & Down: The Complete Fourth Season debuts on Blu-ray with Digital Copy ($39.98) and DVD ($29.98) on May 13, 2014.

The final season of the hit HBO® comedy series finds Kenny (Danny McBride) struggling with his identity after fleeing his successful comeback to the minors by faking his own death and returning home to the love of his life, April, and their son Toby. Years later, Kenny is settled quietly into family life in North Carolina, working as an assistant manager at a car rental outlet, trying to piece together a screenplay about his life story and numbing the yearning to return to the vices of his glory days with boring couples’ nights and bland dinner parties. But when a former teammate turns up with an opportunity for Kenny to get back in the game as a celebrity commentator – and to live the rich, famous lifestyle he deserves – Kenny begins to wonder whether the time is right for a comeback of a different sort.
