Description:
Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie â" a.k.a. Flight of the Conchords â" may be âNew Zealandâs 4th Most Popular Folk Parody Duo,â but in the USA, finding someone who knows their act is about as easy as finding a kiwi nest in Central Park. To rectify this oversight, Jemaine and Bret have moved to New Yorkâs East Village to conquer America, one fan (literally) at a time.
Amazon.com:
Unlike most HBO series, Flight of the Conchords does not want to set the world on fire. It is droll and deadpan to beat the band. If you like Tenacious D, They Might Be Giants, Jonathan Richman, Leningrad Cowboys Go America, and silly Pythonian wordplay, then its off-center charms will definitely strike a resonant chord. The Conchords are comprised of funky, funny folk duo Bret McKenzie and mutton-chopped Jemaine Clement, transplanted New Zealanders trying to make it in New York. Brett, their incompetent manager, Murray (Rhys Darby) notes, has "the right attitude," while Jemaine has "what I like to call, 'the wrong attitude.'" (Murray, who works out of the New Zealand consulate, makes the clueless agent in Extras look like Ari Gold.) Stardom eludes the band. They have one fan, Mel (Kristin Schaal), whose seething husband chaperones her while she stalks them (by season's end, even she will desert them). Financially strapped, they live in squalor and are forced to film a music video with a cell-phone camera. The dense Jemaine is a damper on Brett's love life (he derisively calls Coco, Brett's new girlfriend, "Yoko"). But from their mundane lives springs their inspired music, and it is during each episode's musical numbers that Conchords really takes flight. Sample lyrics: "You're so beautiful / You could be a hostess in the '60s"; and "I'm not crying / It's just been raining / On my face." Another mad highlight is "Bowie to Bowie" in the episode in which Brett is visited by visions of Bowie in his various career incarnations (portrayed by a dead-on Clement). But the dialogue, too, sings with an inspired, surreal lunacy. One exchange between Brett and Murray degenerates into a chicken-egg discussion over a job vs. a gig. HBO has renewed Flight of the Conchords for a second season. Bravo! As a greeting-card executive (The Daily Show's John Hodgman), who wants to license one of their tracks, tells the duo, "I believe in potential. I can see it in you guys." --Donald Liebenson

- So good!... on so many levels :)This show is the kind of show that you'll know whether or not you like after the first episode. It will either instantly resonate with you and your sense of humor... or you may not get it. It has a quirky (dorky) sense of humor and hilarious music video-like segments inserted into the episodes. It's perfect for us folks that grew up in the 80s, or folks that just love music in general. It's almost like "Seinfeld meets Weird Al". The cool thing about their music is that the songs aren't parodies ... Read More

- Flight of the Kings!These guys are just classic funny. Subtle, but funny.
Great session 1, I really hope they make a second session.
No bonus stuff on the DVD which was kind of disappointing.

- FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS RULES!!!I admit it, I have fallen under the spell of Flight of the Conchords. Their brand of humor, self deprecating and rediculous lifts my spirits. In these crazy days a little silliness goes a LOOOOONG way with me. I love these guys so much that I bought this dvd for my sister for her birthday and she said she laughed her a@@ off. These New Zealand guys rock the party.

- SweetI've watched most episodes at least 3 times, and they aren't getting old. Although it's nothing like The Office, I've noticed that the people who liked that show have liked this one as well. Stella, and Freaks and Geeks as well.
