flight of the conchords

[Marc with a c]

new hbo show looks pretty funny. i watched most of the first episode yesterday and i likes.

watch the first episode here http://www.hbo.com/conchords/

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Ill give it a chance, looks like it could be good

:king:

[drusilla]

i really like them, i got tickets to go see them next month at the gramercy theater. haven't got the chance to check out the show yet, still didn't watch the lost finale!

[prothunderball]

I Watched the first half, I really couldn't get into it. Maybe I was just to distraught about the the buddays to laugh.

[drusilla]

had a lot of fun at the show the other night. can't wait for the series to start. i'll check it out on demand after i finish life on mars.

[underdog]

Anyone watch the show tonight? Very funny. It seemed to have very similar humor to Extras. I'm glad HBO is keeping great programming going.

[Landblast]

just saw it, hilarious, love that quiet, dead-pan humor, got the DVR set to record all shows.

[Badinia]

It's very funny. Of course, I bought in when Arj Barker and Eugene Mirman were in the first scene. Pushed in all my chips.

They're like an insecure Tenacious D.

[deepinthewoods]

Funniest Kiwis this side of Split Enz. Robots (along with ninjas and unicorns) have become so common in alt comedy as to be virtually hack material (har). But these lovely lads made robots funny again. Robot God Defend Robot New Zealand (via Robot NYC)!

[Landblast]

Eagle Vs Shark (http://www.apple.com/trailers/miramax/eaglevsshark/trailer/)

[marky2bucks]

Still on the fence about it. It's part "It's always Sunny in Philadelphia" and part Tenacious D. I got to admit, I fast forwarded the first song. With the kiwi accent it's hard to hear all the lyrics.

Anyone notice the New Zealand posters...

"New Zealand - Just Like Lord of the Rings! "

[FUNKMAN]

"flight of the conchords"

i'm more interested in the "plight of the conchman"

http://sidewalkmystic.com/images/conch-traffic.jpg


actually it looks pretty good, just don't have HBO...

[TooLowBrow]

what is it about?

[ChimneyFish]

Haven't checked it out yet.
Will watch all the episodes that are On Demand this weekend.

[drusilla]

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.



they incorporate their songs into the scenes

[nate1000]

I'm all in, too. Could be the funniest thing that I've seen on TV in years. F'ing hilarious

[JustJon]

I've watched the first two. Very dry, but very entertaining.

[SinA]

This show rocks. I'm afraid it won't get any big buzz and will get canned like Lucky Louis (this is WAY better, as much as I like Jimmy and Louis C.K.).

I've already started recording all the songs to put on my ipod.

[KnoxHarrington]

Watched my first episode tonight (well, I'm watching it now.)

Damn, if this show were only as funny as it seems to think it is.

[LiddyRules]

It's a tolerable show but Tenacious D was so much better.

[ChimneyFish]

The whole bit/song about their "rap names" was pretty funny.(and somewhat good)
Best episode so far.

[TheGameHHH]

i think it's got it's moments but im not really crazy about the show on the whole.

[kdubya]

i like the show, it reminds me a little of Tenacious D, a very dry Tenacious D.

Best line so far is when they are talking to their friend Dave and he calls the British, they correct him and he says "You know I really don't give a shit". Hillarious.

[Think]

The comedy is funny. The songs aren't.

[fezshog]

love this show, the rhymenosorous is dope
you could be a part time model? hilarious

i hope this show stays

[JackStraw]

I peed my pants... "you could be an air hostess in the 60's" best pickup line ever! This is one of the funniest shows on TV right now.

[Crispy123]

John from Cincinatti was my front runner for Sunday night HBO but Im digging this show now.
Murray is a riot. Im thinking New Zealanders are much funnier than Australians. Apparently they were on BBC (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/comedy/conchords.shtml) radio before coming to HBO.

[Badinia]

It's a chicken-egg situation.

Things that are great about Flight of the Conchords:

1. Superfan Mel
2. "He sounds kind of like a robot."-"That's the New Zealand accent."
3. Arj Barker
4. Amazing parody videos

I am really looking forward to an upcoming episode with their song, Bowie, which is not just about David Bowie, but is about David Bowie from 1967-1969.

[JackStraw]

Everyone in the world should be watching this show.

been meaning to check it out

when is it on ???

[oh_kee_pa]

sunday nights - 1030

thats why they call them business socks
you can't tame the J-Dog

[JackStraw]

Sundays at 10:30. Do it!

[Crispy123]

Does anyone else watch this show??? It is fucking hilarious. If HBO dumped J from C for this, they made a wise choice. Here is the song from the last episode.

[Ay Kay Forty2]

HBO renewed FotC for a second season. It's Business Time!!!

[LiddyRules]

I think it was the Bowie episode that turned me from "I like this show" to "I can't wait for this show." But I'm still bitter over JFC.

[Yosammity]

Love the show!

Can't wait for tonight's episode!

[LiddyRules]

Is that Will "Funniest Guy on SNL in Ages" Forte in next week episode? If so, sweet!!!

[underdog]

This week's episode focused around Murray, which made it my favorite episode so far.

Murray, the New Zealand Consulate's Deputy Cultural Attache, could be the best television character ever.

[Ay Kay Forty2]

I was so happy they did "Frodo, don't wear the ring". I've seen it on youtube. one is a shitty video that someone did with microsoft paint and the other was much better using clips from the movies. But, it was awesome to see their own version of it.

[drusilla]

i love this song

Frodo Don't Wear the Ring was a riot. My favorite was their friend dressed as Aragorn but still wearing a bandana.

The bands new cd isn't half bad, in a Tenacious D of New Zealand kind of way.

[EffMeBoobs]

I'm just getting into this show, I've seen about 3 episodes so far. I like it. Especially since Mirman was spotted in an episode I watched.

No way they are a NZ version of Ten D. Umless you mean they are innovative and funny and can play music. There is no ther comparison except both are musically gifted comic geniuses. There types of humor and music are completely different.

Oh I know they are different musically and the comedy is different, I made that comparison to say that they are a musical comedy act, not a clone of T.D.

Great start to the season - I loved Murray's song!

[tele7]

First episode of season 2 aired tonight. It's the only reason I keep HBO. Well worth it too. :clap:

[Coach_Mac]

I Tivo'd it and will watch it tomorow. I can't wait to see what the motha flippin ryhmnosorous and hiphopapotomous are up to this season.

[JustJon]

So glad this show is back. So damn good, regardless of what little Jimmy says.

[bobrobot]

Line(s) of the show,
"Murray: "I'm persona non regatta, you know what that means?"
Jermaine: "You're not at a ...yacht race."

So glad this show is back. So damn good, regardless of what little Jimmy says.

He's just jealous cuz his show failed,
he can't act,
he can't play an instrument,
& he isn't handsome...
he actually looks like a cross between a chihuahua & the Pillsbury Doughboy...

I think I need to call up and switch right now. I have Cinemax at the moment cuz they have the best movies of all the channels but now I'm into this show and I've liked the episodes I've seen of True Blood.

[Coach_Mac]

I just cancelled Showtime until Dexter starts next season and I want to cancel HBO to save some money but there are so many good shows on there. Conchords, Curb, Entourage, Big Love.

[yojimbo7248]

never mind, I just read earlier posts and about eight people have not only said this but provided the link.

i haven't had hbo since i moved in june. we're trying to save some money. i don't have any of the pay channels right now. so i missed all of true blood. i've also missed seasons 2 & 3 of dexter, but that was just because i got so busy & it just passed me by. i know all these things are going to wind up like when i watched oz 4 years after it went off the air.

I just bought my tickets for 10th row orchestra, Sugalumps! Can't wait!

[hammersavage]

I want my own Meg soooo bad. The worshiping would do wonders for my self esteem.

NICE! I'm jealous. I'm going to see if I can get some better tickets. I just needed to get some so I was guaranteed to be there. My sister is flying down to visit me to go together. She got me into them this Christmas when she got the DVD's.

[celery]

Cool, I'm going to see them in DC on 4/13. They've really blown up - I think they played 9:30 Club last time they were here.

Did anyone else think that the second rendition of "Hurt Feelings" (the one with all of the secondary characters) was a reference or homage to Magnolia.

I didn't pick that up at the time but thinking back I can see it.

My question is...is Mel on anybodys odly hot list?
http://www.22dakika.org/imaj/artieksibir/img-mel-blog-221.jpg

No? Me neither.

[hammersavage]

Mel as a character is so hot to me. I love obsession.

[Aggie]

Well, I gave up my beloved Cinemax After Dark to get HBO back. I caught up with FOTC with On Demand this weekend. So funny!!!!! Sugalumps, Murry and Mel doing songs, the cup....

But really, HBO needs to work on their After Dark programming. It sux.

[albo60s]

I called Dishnetwork, threatened to cancel because of finances & they gave me 3 free months of HBO & Showtime!

[hammersavage]

I thought last night was their best episode musically. "Too many dicks" was really good. And so was Jermaine's 2nd song about the girls he's dated.

I want Murray to be my best friend.

Last nights episode was directed by Michel Gondry which is why the videos looked so awesome. For anyone who missed:

[GreatAmericanZero]

as much attention that Jermaine and Murray get, i actually think the subtlety of Bret is the best part of the show. I can't explain it, but Bret's laid back, keep-it-cool attitude makes me laugh harder than anything else on the show

I haven't been able to get the song "Carol Brown" from last Sunday's episode out of my head.

It was a great song and the video sequence from Gondry was the best. Best music they ever had.

the show is def funny, but sometimes i think that the show is made so much funnier just from their accents.


i dunno, they just sound so funny when they talk

[MikeyTags]

Absolutely, when Murray talks in his little high pitched voice with that accent it's brilliant.

Funniest show on TV hands down.

[GreatAmericanZero]

i was laughing so hard i was cryin' when they were doing the Dog Epilepsy benefit and in the song they go "...the REMIX!" and all the blinking lights started and you hear all the dogs yelping. That was so funny

[Arienette]

i actually think the subtlety of Bret is the best part of the show. I can't explain it, but Bret's laid back, keep-it-cool attitude makes me laugh harder than anything else on the show
i totally agree, bret makes the show. it's the little things that he does, more than what he even says. like the helmet that looks like hair... brilliant. and when he was drawing the little creases and lines on the gloves that look like hands. bret's the best. plus, not a lot of guys (read: none) could pull off those animal graphic sweatshirts.

with the exception of one or two great songs, i actually prefer the show when they're not singing.

[Badinia]

I LOVED the Gondry episode and have watched it three times.

"Did you wear protection?"

"Yes, but...only on my penis."

"My great-granddad was a renowned rapist, and my great-grandmother was a prostitute, and they met- well, I say met, but you know- he raped her."

I have also been singing "Carol Brown just took a bus out of town..."

Thats definately one of the best song/videos of the series. The last two episodes have been really on point. Although I could stand a little more Mel.

Has Dave's electronic store always had a sign on the front stating that they sold "guit-boards"? That's the first time I noticed that.

It's weird this week that everything pointed to them doing 'The Bus Driver Song' and they just never did it. The tune played over the credits, but that was it. Lucy Lawless is looking good, though.

They even had PAULA!

Teases!

I even thought, when Brian was driving the bus "Ok, here it comes."

I was glad to see the Prime Minister return, though.

I'd like to see the NZ PM meet up with the Aussie PM (Charles Widmore from Lost).

But theyre really hurting for new song ideas.
They blew their load last season... why not reach into the vault and pull out a gem like
The Bus Driver Song??

That's basically why they decided that this is the last season. I remember seeing interviews where they said it was just too hard to come up with songs for a whole season of episodes.

Jermaine: What pillow?

Brent: No, the other side.

this season really made me laugh at how awful and akward (and pretty much creepy) they are with women. just hilarious

[hammersavage]

This is Mel's best episode. She is the fucking best. Who knew Doug struggles with addiction?

[Aggie]

Went to the show on Tuesday night, it was great!!! They guys are good live and it was all songs and talking in between, they improv'd a few times and were hilarious. I went in a Bret fan and left a Jemaine fan, he won me over live. Here's the set list:

"Too Many Dicks On The Dance Floor"
“Hurt Feelings”
“Stanna” (A country song about Satan I’ve never heard)
"The Most Beautiful Girl (in the Room)"
“Carol Brown”
“Jenny”
"I Told You I Was Freaky"
"Foux du Fafa"
"Mutha'uckas"
“Business Time”
"I'm Not Crying"
“Bus Driver”
"I Love Dogs with Epilepsy"
“Think About It”
"Hiphopopotamus vs. Rhymenoceros"
"We're Both in Love with a Sexy Lady"
“Sugalumps” (acoustic)
Encore 1 – "Albi the Racist Dragon"& “Bowie”
Encore 2 – “Demon Woman”


Eugene Mirman (who plays the landlord on the show) opened for them with about a 30 minute stand up set. He was quite funny and told this story about Delta Airlines screwed him over so bad that with the claim money he got from them he had these postcards made up. He hands them out at shows for people to harass them. It gave me quite a chuckle:

Awesome!

[Aggie]

Awesome!

It was indeed.

Is it too hard to read the back of the postcard? I can try again...

It's clear enough. Did you send yours in?

I will be doing that today!

[Aggie]

Woohoo! I saw this on their Facebook page. Here's a story.

http://tvnz.co.nz/entertainment-news/flight-conchords-in-emmy-race-2850822

Flight of the Conchords is going from strength to strength in the United States.

The New Zealand comedy duo have picked up six Emmy nominations. These include best actor in a comedy for Jemaine Clement, as well as best comedy series, outstanding directing for a comedy series and outstanding writing for a comedy series.

[Badinia]

Emmy nods for the boys?

SUPER-HOT!

Hot like a Curry!

I'm sorry you missed out on their cover of Freebird, which they perform when a smart-ass requests it- Portland is more smart-assed than Dallas I guess?

I have also mailed in my Mirman card!

[realmenhatelife]

Was Jemaine really that much better than Bret?

[Aggie]

Jemaine isn't necessarily that much better, but he's the more prominent of the two.

Not quite as smart assy here, I'll remember that for whenever they roll through here next. That would have been great. I wonder if Delta even cares about the postcards anymore. Either way it's hilarious.

The flight is over...

Business time is over. Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, who starred in and co-created HBO's "Flight of the Conchords," say there won't be a third season of the show. In a statement posted on the Conchords web site Thursday, McKenzie, Clement and co-creator James Bobin say they "like the way the show ended" and are leaving it at that. They've spoken in the past about the difficulty of writing songs to fit the show's episodes -- which contributed to the 16-month gap between the first and second season on HBO.

[Ocho Cinco]

that suh-hucks, this was def one of the most creative and funny shows out there. i was hoping for at least one more season but alas i am caught up.

i hear their live shows are incredible though, hopefully they'll still tour and that nonsense. that setlist above looked awesome, too many dicks on the dancefloor is the funniest song i would love to see that live
