HOW TERRIBLE OF YOU

brett: "i'm looking for my friend"
cop: "dark hair, glasses, talks like a robot?"
brett: "yeah that's just how new zelanders talk"

haha
(paraphrased tho sorry)

xpost sometimes i am terrible haha

ned do you like this show?

brett: "yeah that's just how new zelanders talk"

that would be correct.

ned do you like this show?

Only seen some of the clips. I agree with others that "Inner City Pressure" is the high point.

but the strength of this show is in the, uh, show
like not the clips but watching the whole thing. a bunch of smaller jokes within one big joke. that is within another, bigger joke.
i probably said that upthread though and am repeating myself.

sorry i spelled new zealand wrong twice there... um
uh

on behalf of all new zealanders: we forgive you ;)

i'll never do it again!

murray: "he may be dead"
dude with paintball gun - dave?: "he maybe did what?"
m: "he may be DEAD"
dave: "i know but what did he maybe do?"
m: "he may be DEAD"
dave: "maybe he did or maybe he didn't, what did he maybe do?"
brett: "no, he may be dead"
dave: "are you guys fucking with me?"

full eps are on y0utube btw of course
which is why that above is like a transcript and my previous entry re: new zealand accent is a fairly inaccurate paraphrasing...

also: rhymenoceros

"Inner City Pressure" is my new theme song.

You want to sit down
But you sold your chair
So you just...
You just stand there.

No one cares
No one sympathizes
You just stay home
And Play synthesizers

Also:

She's so hot she's making me sexist. Bitch.

Also: I smell a lot of Ween-level comedy begging to happen in this show, but thankfully so far it hasn't gotten that inexcusable. So far it's just a little South-Park-y. And fine and whatever and -- deep breath -- ok.

my fave verses on the what's wrong with the world R&B song are the one about Monkeys giving people diseases and the one about high sneaker prices. Those cracked me up.

this show is brilliant. me and lxy watched all three last night. Inner City Pressure was tear-inducing. the phrasing was so perfect pet shop boys. I concur with rrrobyn above that you really need to watch the whole show: the genius is in the silences and looks and awkward moments. their manager kind of kills me, like a cross between Ian Fiath and David Brent.

Jemaine is really weird looking. In a good way.

also i love the week-in-the-life format. "What, all that happened on Tuesday??"

and thankx guys for the Daft Punk reference

it's pretty good except for the songs

The manager is my favorite for laffs; I love both the main guys & they are v.v. good looking. I am surprised no Tenacious D comparisons have been made (ie on their NPR interview): HBO show about unpopular two-man band. But xxx100k better of course.

HBO's streaming the entire episode this week.

wow is this ever hit and miss. but it hits enough

TENACIOUS TWEE

3rd time's the charm!

DAVID BOWIE

TENACIOUS DUNDEE

SHOW REFERENCE

the apple toss kills me every time

i missed Coco this episode

murray will totally make me cry
he is the most sad of them all

"it's not gay if i'm pretending you're a woman"

Hahah this show is AWESOME Ive just been watching bits of it on YT. Love the Pet Shop Boys pastiche and the Bowie one thats on there as one of their standup things hahaha fantastic.

the best part is their one fan - she slays me

She's so superbly creepy!

and yet she seems so sweet too! and a psychologist! hahaha
she is comedy gold

am I wrong for thinking she's cute?

I am, aren't I. My life is one shame after another.

she is not horribly uncute, she just should've had orthodontics re: chin
but whatever, she is funny!!

Murray and Mel are what actually make this show for me.

thread needs more coco
