Episode description

Look, everything has to begin. And everything isn't always perfect in the beginning. Look at babies. You can barely trust them to do anything right. Or Parks And Recreation. Remember Mark Brendanawicz? 

That's what the pilot episode of Why I Hate Today is like. It's like babies and pre-Lowe Parks & Rec. Hosts Tim Karan (an idiosyncratic writer) and Joe Bacharach (a tall waiter) attempt to discuss the pending apocalypse of 2012 before it's too late (one way or the other) while also establishing the basic premise of the show.

It'll get better. But as it is, it isn't all that bad. After all, the theme song is by Andy Hull of Manchester Orchestra. And that's gotta be worth a listen alone, right?
