It is very reminiscent of my name is earl, considering the narration and subject matter. (Not necessarily a bad thing). But, Billy ray Cyrus is charming and the supporting cast is way above average.

This show is hilarious! I especially like the ode to Randy Travis when he crashes his car butt naked at the church and Randy is the cop who found him. Can't wait for the next episode!
