flight of the conchords

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

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

:(

(not that that couldn't be hot in its own way)

o that woman is disturbing

Am I the only one who thinks their manager is like a dodgy NZ version of Ricky Gervais?

nope!

their manager kind of kills me, like a cross between Ian Faith and David Brent.

murray is probably the funniest

i thought the band shell field trip sounded fun

this kind of kicks ass

yeah i watched that a while back - v funny and yaaay

murray sings on this week's episode!
and there is racism! and fruit!

novelty music scene magazine

I'm so glad the shows are on YT, I'd never have seen it otherwise. I love this show and I keep replaying the live version of "She's So Hot BOOM!" which is awesomeness.

I've had that part in whatever that one song about tape of love where Jemaine goes PEOPLE PEOPLE PAPER PAPER PAPER PAPER PEOPLE PEOPLE etc stuck in my head all day.

I only just realized halfway through ep 7 that his name is Jemaine and not actually Jermaine as all the Americans pronounce it.

teardrops turn into jellybeans

yah albi the racist dragon was great and is better upon repeat viewings. as well as the bowie ep. "jemaine, you look like an ogre that works at the library."

I liked Mel better when she was hot for both of 'em, at some point she lost interest in Jemaine entirely.

i think you're over analyzing mel a bit there.
