flight of the conchords

Glad I caught them in Edinburgh some years ago right before they became huge with their BBC radio thingy and various ads for mobile phones (but best skim over those). They're probably too fancypants to come back for a Melbourne Comedy Festival these days. Wah.
But good luck to them. Rather brilliant, those lads.

And hooray for HBO. That network surely is one of the wonders of the modern world.

Funny dudes.

luckily saw them play at the bar at the victoria hotel in melbourne the first (only?) time they were here for comedy fest.

ooohoohohohooh. hbo? goodness me
this is exchiting

Whole first episode of their new HBO show here.

just like it says in the first post eh?

Oh yeah. In case it wasn't clear that they're streaming the episode, rather than just 'have a show on HBO', they're STREAMING THE WHOLE FIRST EPISODE AT THAT SITE!!

i've been listening to the radio show they had on bbc, some bloody funny moments, and guest apperances from people like daniel kitson.

Arj Barker's "Dave" in the first ep.

after this series launches and stuff they're recording their next album with Sub Pop... I'm excited.

hey nony, is that radioshow available for podcast anywhere?

nope, from a couple of years ago, its available to buy from amazon uk and the like.

the very funny bowie song

I love that song! Does anyone have a link to Albie the Racist Dragon?

Found it.

major crush on these boys.

sigh. yup.

the humans are dead, complete with brilliant binary solo

''This is the song that we used to stop racism in New Zealand... 'cause remember it used to be really racist before we started singing that. It's better now.''

Seconded, Loadie.

Hiphopopotamus vs. Rhymenoceros

hbo series is going down somewhat well, though its a bit of a rehash of the radio stuff.

flight of the conchords do sxsw:

a texan odyssey part one

part two

part three

part five

i quite liked the first ep of the HBO series but i wandered off to make tea during the 2nd one and never came back

having said that i feel a bit outside the (ahem) target demographic

which is a strange feeling in itself

they're on letterman tonight.

if you're a insomniac like me. (or unemployed)

watched episode 5 in 3 parts on you tube last night...

I'm trying to like this from respected recommendations, but find it quite boring.

yeh i expected/hoped i was going to love it, but found it a bit blah

the HBO or them in general?

try the BBC radio series instead - betterer.

well, them inside their own show are kind of boring. Slight slither of charm, but it's not going to make me skip Entourage any time soon.

i like them and their standup gear. haven't heard the radio series - where can one get their hands on that, lipsy? i thought the tele show was a bit uninteresting

radio series betterer... it's available online.

oh no this show just keeps getting better. trust me. weird that it's on in the states, and not in oz.

I agree... episodes 9 and 10 are my favourite so far.

yeah. when is this gonna get played in australia? surely sbs can find a comedy deathslot for it like they did for mighty boosh or marhengi repeats

hehehe funny stuff.
Slothman i agree... when are we going to get this show???
