As designed and voiced by Steve Dildarian - a former ad man best known as the creator of the Budweiser lizards -- the HBO animated comedy series The Life and Times of Tim became an enormous cult hit. Utilizing a deliberately rough, flat style that recalls Beavis and Butthead, it follows the misadventures of Tim (Dildarian), a twenty something urbanite living in New York with his girlfriend Amy (Mary Jane Otto). Well-meaning but hapless, he consistently manages to end up in awkward, sometimes humiliating circumstances. Season Three was the program's last prior to a cancellation by HBO, and contained 10 episodes - all of which appear, in full, in this box set. They originally aired between December 16, 2011 and February 17, 2012. Installments include: Percey Davis Boulevard/Cool Uncle Stu Balls, Super Gay Eduardo/The Pros and Cons of Killing Tim, The Model from Newark/Tim's Hair Looks Amazing, and seven more.
What can be said about Tim and his life and times. It's hilarious and doesn't take itself to seriously. Though some of the jokes you can see coming a mile away, and the running jokes will leave you confused if you haven't seen the first two seasons.
