A falling out with HBO ended the series pretty quickly, but luckily, the episodes that did see the light of day got a lot of attention from fans, ranging from fans of alternative comedy to some showbiz friends - for instance, [[Music/FooFighters Dave Grohl]] wound up playing drums for them on their debut album. As well, they quickly secured spots opening for Music/{{Beck}}, Music/PearlJam, the Foo Fighters and Music/{{Tool}}. The original show, as you can imagine, has become something of a CultClassic, and perhaps even ahead of its time.

Added DiffLines:

* EurekaMoment: DoubleSubversion. "The Search For Inspirado" is centered around Jack and Kyle waiting for inspiration to strike, so they can write a new song within a week to play at the next open mic night. Something always sabotages their efforts: they come up with a cool rhythm by snapping their fingers only to lose the idea because the tape machine wasn't on, they come up with a nice vocal harmony that turns out to be the jingle from the ice cream truck, and going out of the house for once just winds up with Kyle running naked through the forest and Jack sitting in a wading pool eating ice cream. The tension catches up with them, and they have a spat and break up before the open mic night even happens. However, they reconcile, and write their new song about getting back together, which they perform at the open mic the week after.
