Talk About a Sizable Stimulus Package

HBO’s pushing the boundaries once again with Hung, its new show starring Thomas Jane.

The dark comedy follows the hard labor of Ray Drecker, a onetime high school sports legend-turned-desperate dad, who’s forced to capitalize on his best asset (refer to the show’s name now) and become a prostitute to make ends meet.

“It’s been a rough couple years,” he says in the pilot. “Really. Rough.”

Now, don’t you go thinking you’re gonna see Ray’s moneymaker anytime soon – after all, it’s HBO, not porn.

But you’re definitely going to get your rocks off watching Ray make the trek to Hookerville under the guidance of his unlikely pimp (played by Jane Adams).

Hung premieres tonight on HBO.
