Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim are an American comedy duo known for producing the sketch comedy television series Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! on the Adult Swim cable television network and their brand of surreal and oddball humor.

In 2004, Tim & Eric created the Adult Swim animated television series Tom Goes to the Mayor (shown below, left).
