Watch Andy Barker, P.I. tonight!

I have always liked Andy Richter, but not the shows he's been in. They have never quite been the right vehicle for his humor. But they finally got it right with Andy Barker, P.I.

Richter plays a sad sack accountant who opens his first solo office in a strip mall, then gets mistaken for the private investigator who was in the space before him. The timing is spot-on, the writing crackles, the story is hilarious and the supporting cast is fantastic. Some of the actors include Clea Lewis(the goofy Audrey from the Ellen Degeneres sitcom), Tony Hale (Buster from Arrested Development) and Harve Presnell (Wade Gustafson from Fargo).

If you miss it -- or just can't wait for tonight -- you can download the pilot episode free from iTunes. NBC is also streaming several episodes on their site already, including one online exclusive.
