''Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!'' (2007-2010) was a 15-minute long AdultSwim original centered around comedians and video artists [[TimAndEric Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim]], the creators of the absurdist cartoon ''WesternAnimation/TomGoesToTheMayor''. Known for often skirting the border between comedy and [[RefugeInAudacity gratuitous absurdity]] ([[RefugeInVulgarity or worse]]), and also for recruiting extremely obscure, untalented, and non-telegenic performers as recurring cast members, such as James Quall, David Liebe Hart, and the late Richard Dunn, and sticking them alongside frequent [[TheCameo cameos]] from well-known comedy actors. All of this comes together as what low-budget local public-access television from TheEighties and [[TheNineties Nineties]] would look like [[ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs if it was made by stoners]].

** Steve himself is an extremely awkward manchild.
** Casey is obviously a parody of severely mentally challenged kids who have amazing talents.
** Tim and Eric themselves. Tim is starved for attention and even his own parents favor Eric over him, and Tim pushes Eric down the stairs in the 50 anniversary reunion episode. By the Chrimbus Special, it's apparent that Tim's hate for his partner and self-esteem issues are festering and festering hard.
