I'm 30, and you find it weird I'm using slang that's been popular since I was like 10 or something?

I've thought, since the day I noticed you were a mod (atleast a year), that you were the guy in your picture!?!?

Last night's episode was hilarious. Went back and watched the other episodes I missed, they're a bit more choppy, but still funny.

There is something a little hit-or-miss when they break into a song (not from a music / lyrics standpoint, more rhythm of the show kind of thing) but last night was seamless and pretty awesome.

This is the best new comedy (originality, casting, dialogue, and overall execution) I've seen in a long time. Go HBO.

Flight of the Conchords.

On HBO, 30 mins long but worth watching.

Unless a kid getting a ball thrown at him is the new Rickroll I don't think that link goes where you meant it to.

Flight Of The Conchords HBO One Night Stand

I think this is what you meant to link to. This is the show that most of the YouTube's are taken from, so if you haven't seen them then check this out because it's hilarious.

I don't know about the US but in the UK you can get their BBC radio series on iTunes which is also great, although it relies on most of the same songs as are featured in the standup and HBO series. The radio series gave me a new appreciation of the band manager, as much of the dialogue between songs is from him and is just as good as the Jemaine/Bret stuff. The Conchords have much in common with The Mighty Boosh, and I expect they will be just as popular as the Boosh when the TV series reaches our shores.

I liked tonight's episode, especially the song. The friendship with the muggers and the fan's t-shirt of Jemaine in jail were also pretty funny.

To date I would go Episode 1 >>> 3 >>>>>> 2.

Edit: I believe this is the third thread on the show, and it's title has yet to be spelled correctly.

Promotional synergy note:

Also there really is a guy who works under the name hip-hipphopotamus, he makes dope beats, you can find a couple of them on my friend's mixtape, www.can-u.net
