  • Michael & Michael Have Issues: season 1, episode 7

    "Frogbox"

    August 26, 2009 - 10:08p.m.

    We're seven episodes in and I'm surprised the season's already over; it feels like it just started.

    Tonight's season finale guest stars Jon Benjamin and Rob Huebel, actors Jeff and Larry on a competing, higher budget ...

    "Shit Bag House"

    August 19, 2009 - 10:08p.m.

    While not as finely tuned as "College", "Shit Bag House" is another solid outing for Michael & Michael, one that makes liberal use of the show's supporting players. Showalter is having difficulty with his lease, so he's homeless for ...

    "Biederman's Birthday"

    July 22, 2009 - 10:07p.m.
