Flight of the Conchords

edited November -1 in General Discussion
FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS...

in their own words used to be "New Zealand's 4th most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo". Now they are "the almost award-winning fourth-most-popular folk duo in New Zealand.".

YES!

Composed of Bret and Jemaine, two of the coolest New Zealanders ever! This show is way too awesome!

    "i poked one, it was dead"
  • I love the racism episode and the mugging episode the best.
    And Murry's my fav.
  • I don't have a favorite, but I love the Bowie episode! I was watching it and i was laughing so hard I could hardly breathe hahah

    And then I made my brother watch it, and we were both hysterical! it was amazing!!

    but then again, i love David Bowie, and Jemaine does a GREAT Bowie impression! it was sooo good!
  • BRET WAS RAPED!
  • omg, when i read that i thought you were serious! i was like omg what, when?

    but then i remembered it from the episode haha

    i love that part of the song, "Just because you’ve been exploring my mouth Doesn’t mean you get to take an expedition further south." hahaha

    I love how they are both like so innocent haha, but that girl from the episode annoyed me haha

    they're so silly.
  • yaaaa

    o sorry that you can't watch it on tv. my dad said he was going to cancel the hbo on demand thing after The Sopranos ended and i had to like beg him not to. And he didn't so now i get to watch it! you can also watch it on the hbo website as well.

    and yes, they are soo silly!
  • At V-Fest this weekend, people could txt things to a number and they would display on a scrolling marquee across the top of the main stage. I swear I saw more FoTC references go across that board - "Wear an eye patch, Bret - David Bowie, ca.1982", "Who's Da BOOM KING?", "Yes, Affirmative", "It's Business Time"; the list just goes on and on. It was so awesome that Adam and I sent the following txt about the weather: "It's so Hot. Like a Curry."
  • I think i'll have a go with the tv-links site! I'd never heard of this show until I came here so thanks for the telling me, I hope tongue.gif
  • hahahah Rachel, that is awesome! those texts are hilarious. love the David Bowie one haha

    I think they are like taking over the world, gradually hahaha

    yes, JB, watch it! it is sooo good biggrin.gif
  • I've been watching them on YouTube; I wasn't even aware they had an actual SHOW. AHHHH. This makes me so happy. I love Jemaine's voice. It's so... mmm... blink.gif
  • I don't know if this is posted somewhere else, but they're going to be on Letterman this Friday.
  • I say "yes" in a NZ accent now. To any and all qyestions, my response is "yehs."
    It's also really fun to say, "yehs actuually," the way Jemaine finally answers Bret's "was it that I abandoned you when we got mugged?" and "is it that I eat too loudly?"

    I'M SORRY I ABANDONED YOU WHEN WE GOT MUGGED smile.gif

    Thank you! I'm going to see if I can get there and wait by the side door that guests use. I have a new camera that I've been wanting to try out. BTW, I saw Johnny Depp there last year and I have to say -- boy, is he short.

    EDIT:
    Forget everything I just said. I think they usually do double shows on Thursdays and don't have live audiences on Fridays.

  • She means they tape shows for both Thursday and Friday on Thursday, so that's when you would be able to see it live.
