Perhaps one of the most underrated shows from 2007, and definitely on my top 10 list from last year, Flight of the Conchords is a must-see for comedy fans out there.
Flight of the Conchords is a musical comedy folk duo from New Zealand made up of Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie. They just released a new album last week that is getting rave reviews.
The duo made a comedy series last year that aired on HBO and it was fantastic. It’s definitely a unique style, with musical numbers mixed in with the normal flow of the show. But the two guys are just hilarious and Jemaine is my favorite.
Anyways, the 12-episode first season is getting an encore run on HBO starting on May 9th, so if you want to give it a shot, or rewatch them, add HBO to your cable/satellite provider next week.
There is also a ton of great stuff out there for the show, and I think that this shirt will be a member of my closet in the near future.
“bret, you’ve got it going on.”
i love them!

Murray: Well, how many were there?
Bret: There was two of them.
Murray: Two? That’s not a gang.
Bret: It was a two-man gang.
Murray: Two-man gang. Can you have that, David?
Dave: Well, that’s a pretty small gang. I mean, technically, the smallest gang possible.
haha!
Bret: Murray, I was wondering if you could call me by my rapping name?
Murray: Your rapping name?
Bret:Rhymenoceros.
Murray: Rhinoceros?
Bret: The Rhymenoceros.
Murray: Nah, well, that’s not gonna fit in here.

i seriously love all their songs. but i can’t keep a straight face during “think about it” or “bret, you’ve got it going on.” oh, add “ladies of the world” to that too. man, i can’t pick just one!

My favorite parts of the show are the band meetings.
“Okay, band meeting…role call. Bret?”
“Here”
“Jemaine?”
“I’m here Murray”
“Okay…and Murray, here.”
“Murray, any gigs?”
I just rented the first disc of season I and loved it. I thought it was brilliant when Jermain was David Bowie, and I love the Davie Bowie song…. Reminds me of Pigs In Space from the Muppet Show at times. Fantastic!
