Flight of the Conchords: "New Zealand's fourth most popular digi-folk parodists"

Didn't see a page for this new HBO show, I just watched it online and I expected it to be ok, but it was really hilarious..


A bit of info--

About the Show (hbo)-

Flight of the Conchords follows the trials and tribulations of a two man, digi-folk band from New Zealand as they try to make a name for themselves in their adopted home of New York City. The band is made up of Bret McKenzie on guitar and vocals, and Jemaine Clement on guitar and vocals.

Bret and Jemaine have moved to New York in the hope of forging a successful music career. So far they've managed to find a manager (whose "other" job is at the New Zealand Consulate), one fan (a married obsessive) and one friend (who owns the local pawn shop) -- but not much else.

Official HBO site- HBO: Flight of the Conchords
Episode 1 online- HBO: Flight of the Conchords - Video

If you haven't seen it yet I highly suggest it


One of my favorite lines in a song-

"'Cause you're so beautiful
Like a tree
or a high class prostitute
You're so beautiful
You could be a part-time model
But you'd probably still have to keep your normal job..."

Why aren't there more fans on FF for this?

I was interested in it but didn't fall in love until I saw the first two episodes on youtube.It is too funny.

I then proceeded to go download all FoTC stuff.Their HBO special was hilarious and their songs are just so good.

On the special,before the song "Think About It",they do a kind of 3 min chat thing about issues and Bret's imaginary children and I it!

Love this show. I've only seen "Mugging" but it was so damn hilarious.

I just saw an ep the other night and was really surprised. It's a great show and I'll definitely tune in regularly.

I loved this show, I really didn't like the episode but last few have been hilarious especially the mugging one. I just wished they used Mel, their only fan more.

The "Bowie" episode was hilarious...as was this week's episode "Drive By" --- with the guys learning how to flip the bird. And Jemaine always adding the wings.

A few screencaps from "Bowie"



"It's not Jermaine, It's 1972 David Bowie from the Ziggy Stardust tour."



"Am I freaking you out Bret? Is this a freaky dream?"



"Watch out for the table Bretttt!"



And loved Bret's eyepatch

Agreed! This is one of our new favorite shows. I love the 'band meetings' with the role call I loved the eye patch episode too, Bret lost his depth perception.

Just wanted to stop by and show some love for this show, cuz I do love it. I think it's pure comedy, and I made my mom watch it with me once and now she loves it also.
