Flight of the Conchords

For my fellow HBO-ers out there, I have a recommendation to make, especially if you find yourself watching Entourage Sunday nights (which I don't). There is a(n) hilarious new series out titled Flight of the Conchords, which is based on the documentary of the same name by "New Zealand's [self-proclaimed] fourth most popular folk-parody duo," Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement.

The show is a strange mix of witty Kiwi deadpan dialogue and offbeat songs that declare,

"And when you're on the street,
depending on the street,
I'll be you are definitely in the top three/
good-looking girls on the street,
(depending on the street)."

The song continues,

"You're so beautiful, you could probably be a part-time model/
(but you'll probably have to keep your other job)."

The show is full of witty banter and crazy non-sequiturs, which won't put mainstream viewers off the way the strange song showcases might. But these might just be the funniest parts. This show is definitely worth your time, if you've got it.


Screw you, spell check: that's how you spell sequiturs!
