Tim is the most awkward man on the planet, find out just how awkward as smash hit HBO comedy ‘The Life & Times of Tim’ arrives in the UK exclusive to Virgin 1
The series has already been running for a few weeks and there are ten 30 minute episodes from the brain of Steve Dildarian, a former host of Saturday Night Live and the man behind the Budweiser lizards, who also voices Tim himself.
Here’s more about Tim:
Tim’s an everyday, nice, working guy who can’t help but get himself into the worst situations. No matter the situation, life’s little challenges always manage to demand the most offensive solutions, which wouldn’t be such a problem if he weren’t continually caught red-handed.
Tim lives in New York with his girlfriend Amy, who just wants them to be in a normal couple like everyone else, patiently putting up with his antics for as long as it takes for him to get his life in order.
Unfortunately, this is not made any easier by the fact that Tim’s world is full of characters who seem determined to aid him in his ongoing quest for cringe-worthy, embarrassing, and downright humiliating situations. Such as Tim’s workmates Rodney and Stu. Stu lives for the simple things in life, like free food at the office and women with big boobs. He acts purely out of instinct, with no regard for the consequences of his actions. He’s actually kind of ambitious, but for all the wrong reasons. Rodney is the Boss’s loud assistant, whose primary interests are sports and porn, but not much else. And then there’s Debbie the ageing prostitute who lives next door and often stops by to chat to Tim. She adores Tim and supports his sometimes misguided decisions.
Tim somehow always gets it wrong, whether it’s inviting a hooker to meet his girlfriend’s parents to slapping his boss’s daughter’s behind at her prom.
Virgin1 are running a competition allowing users who have created their own Life & Times of Tim animation sketch to win a prize for the best entry - a 32″ Sony Bravia LCD TV.
