Is this the best 'new' comedy on the box or what? Kinda like The Mighty Boosh crossed with Peep Show..... kind of....

I saw it on a flight a while ago and thought it was one of the most original things I'd seen in a while.

Only seen one episode, the one where one goes on a date and the other tags along.

Very funny.

I'd go with the peep show analogy but not the other one. Can't stand the Mighty Boosh.

Yeah, I stumbled across it, when it was 1st shown.
Spent the next 2 months convincing a colleague to watch it, but he missed every week.

Now, with it being re-run, he still missed the first 2, but he has finally seen one, is completly hooked realising it is the funniest prog on TV.

Sheer and utter genius. Bought the CD album and the BBC radio series on the back of it. So many great songs.

FotC is quality. I'm afraid you have to accept it is quite a lot like the Mighty Boosh, slightly psychadelic, plenty of music and silly in points.

Rhys Darby = Murray, band manager and funniest character in the Conchords.

He's their Bob Fossil...

Albie the racist Dragon. Hilarious

I'm having trouble remembering that one, please explain further.

It's the one where the stall holder refuses to sell fruit to Bret & Jermaine as he thinks they come from Australia (whereas they're actually Kiwi's).

I love Flight of the Conchords.

It's a really warm and lovable comedy show. Not always laugh out loud funny, but definitely solid and enjoyable.

When they drop into Rhymenocerous vs Hiphopapotamus is a masterstroke moment, and the bit about sneakers and sweatshops in Think About It is proper genius.

Roll on series 2
