Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim, the Pennsylvanian duo that stars in the highly successful and infectiously bizarre “Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!” on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, bring their mostly indescribable routine on the road. In three seasons of the show, the tandem has crafted a niche out of outlandishly kitschy costumes, irrepressibly goofy satire and a blitz of short sketches with virtually no ties to logic (other than they were clearly conceived after downing five Red Bulls). To get an idea of the extent of Tim and Eric’s unadulterated randomness one has to watch the show for themselves, if just to see if they can stomach an entire episode of Jeff Goldblum starring in the Jeff GoldBlueMan group, a pseudo-infomercial for the “Innernette” (the entire Internet packed into one CD-ROM!), and John C. Reilly as “Dr. Steve Brule,” a humiliated, possibly mentality-challenged news reporter. Yes, that really is an actual episode, and no, that doesn’t include the dance party. (Andy Seifert)
