i'll give you a witness, but perhaps it doesn't count because i'm the one watching the marathons with you.

all i have to say is congrats to those guys. didn't seem like that long ago that we could only watch someone's shitty camera phone video of them playing at a little club. now look at 'em go.

Thanks, this was great!

Just watched the first 2 episodes last night after many folks have told me about it. When they first started singing I had that "embarrassed for someone else" feeling and also the fear my wife would walk in and question what I was watching; she likes to make fun of me. By the end of the song, I was hooked and yelling for her to come watch it. Great show!

Great show and great CD. For me it just doesn't get any better than Business Time! Now that Entourage and Flight of The Conchords is over until next season life is boring. :'(

See, I liked FOTC, but not like I like Always Sunny In Philly, Curb Your Enthusiasm, or now Eastbound&Down.

I enjoyed watching the first season, but I think I only DVR'd 1 episode from season 2 and I havent even watched it yet. I like it, but I guess its not quite must-see TV for me.

Title: Re: Flight Of The Conchords
Post by: Jbones72 on Mar 30, 2009, 01:19 AM
It's right up there with Always Sunny & Curb for me! They are similar shows in that it takes multiple viewings of each episode to really appreciate how funny they are!
Title: Re: Flight Of The Conchords
Post by: JohnQDriveway on Apr 21, 2009, 07:49 PM
I think FOTC is much funnier that Always Sunny.  I watched a few episodes of Sunny and it just seemed like the actors were trying to hard.  I know a lot of people who like the show, but I don't know...
Title: Re: Flight Of The Conchords
Post by: JohnQDriveway on Apr 21, 2009, 07:50 PM
I think "If That's What You're Into" (not sure about the title, but it was the song Brett sang to Coco at the fountain) was probably the funniest.
