murray definitely stole the show

in a bad way.

You people are crazy - that episode was far funnier than the 1st, and maybe funnier than the 2nd. Maybe not. But definitely funnier than the 1st. The friend graph, Mel's cookies, her being pissed at Bret...

2/10/2009 1:55:33 PM

Haha the dream part was pretty funny.

definitely agree

nah. it had a ton of great one-liners and several good sight gags, but the songs were weak and it dragged

2/10/2009 2:07:12 PM

i've missed out on the whole 2nd season so far

do they already have some of the episodes up on HBO OnDemand?

2/10/2009 2:08:47 PM

they have all the episodes up so far, and will keep updating as the season goes on

2/15/2009 10:29:19 PM

That was a great episode, I was consistently laughing my ass off the entire time.

One of his gfs turned out to be a man. "Fran was a man".. or something like that.
It's in the song.

HA! I love the Australian vs. New Zealand stuff. and it's hilarious that the New Zealanders can't understand the Australian accent.

Too Many Dicks on the Dancefloor - another classic song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5aY0CAtvsk
some outstanding lyrics

Quote :

"[Jemaine] Going to the party, sippin' on barcady. Wanna meet a hottie, but there's Adam, Steve and Marty. There's Billy, Todd and Tommy; there only from the army. The only boobs I see tonight will be made of oragami. [Bret] Tell the players, make it understood, it ain't no good if there's too much wood. Maker sure you know before you go, the dance floor bro : hoe ratio. 5 to 1 is a brodeo, tested them like its time to go. Wait out side all night from 9 to 5, tryin the dudes in a congo line. ... [Dave] Too many dudes With too many dicks To close to my shit To hard to meet chicks I need a better house More braods, less rhymes I came to do battle [s*] with the counterparts. [Jemaine] Too many men Too many boys Too many misters Not enough sisters Too much time on, too many hands Not enough ladies, too many manz"

Great episode.

It's like an evil version of our accent, hah

2/16/2009 1:17:15 PM

hold on, I've gotta go murder a brown snake

2/16/2009 3:20:29 PM

ha, just watched it a 2nd time, with my wife this time.
even better the 2nd time around. Apparently I missed a lot of the 2nd song (the ex-girlfriends) the first time. That one was magnificently designed and produced.

2/16/2009 5:38:11 PM

Don't know if anyone noticed but Michel Gondry directed this past episode. That second video definitely looked like he had his touch.

2/17/2009 2:32:44 AM

ha, check it out -

I thought something was "off" with the bouncer outside the club (he didn't really strike me as bouncer material) then he stood out in the Too Many Dicks song. I was thinking, for a song complaining about too many dicks, he was kind of.... gay

turns out there's good reason for that.

Quote :

"Randy Jones — best known as Cowboy from the Village People — has a new hangout that’s far less flashy than the YMCA. Jones will appear as a nasty bouncer named Bruno on HBO’s hit hipster series “Flight of the Conchords.”"

Those lyrics are wrong in some spots...gotta watch it w/ closed captioning, then you can keep up w/ what they are singing

2/18/2009 12:42:45 PM

yeah, i copied them from the youtube description. I already corrected on error, changing "rodeo" to "brodeo", but didn't catch any other errors on my quick read-through

2/18/2009 1:07:10 PM

Closed captioning is not accurate

ha, yeah, that was great. Good songs, and Kristin Wig fit in good.

2/25/2009 12:23:02 PM

i didn't realize the I'm In Love With A Sexy Girl song was a parody of R Kelly and Usher "Same Girl"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HN1SVSH40b4

that one had some awesome lyrics too
"[both] How'd you meet your lady?
[Bret] I was goin' for a jog and she lost her dog
[J] I was runnin' in the area and she lost her terrier"

[B] Are you thinkin' what I'm thinkin'
[J] No, I'm thinkin' what I'm thinkin'
[B] So you're not thinkin' what I'm thinkin'
[J] No cause you're thinkin' I'm thinkin' what you're thinkin'

[J] Bret, she was looking at me
[B] No, she was looking at me
[J] Bret, she was looking at me. She had her eye on my knees
[B] Dog, I'm sorry, she had her eye on my guns
[J] Oh, you're loco, she was checkin' out my buns

Prime Minister of New Zealand was great. They should have him back sometime, if they can work it into the storyline

3/2/2009 11:29:18 AM

Its a glitch in the Matrix! lol

3/2/2009 1:52:21 PM

^^^ that song is genious, i'm so glad someone ahs made fun of rkelly's dumb shit (besides chapelle)

3/2/2009 3:36:34 PM

best episode this season.

[Edited on March 3, 2009 at 3:30 PM. Reason : in a good way.]

3/3/2009 3:30:28 PM

i think it was the 3rd strongest episode of the season

behind the australian episode at #1 and the friends episode at #2

specifically i'd like to know what happens between the main car and the girl car.

...

good, it was touch and go there for awhile.

3/8/2009 4:35:02 AM

It's hilarious that the PM of New Zealand is just hanging out with Murray and the band.


..... only one song though. that was weird.

3/9/2009 10:19:09 AM

In S1, were a lot of the songs parodies of real songs? I didn't notice any in season 1.

but in S2, at least half of the songs are recognizable as parodies, including Piano Man last night.

3/16/2009 10:52:18 AM

i don't think i appreciated "I Told you I was Freaky" enough the first time I saw it

3/20/2009 12:14:37 PM

ah balls - i just noticed that last week was listed as the season finale!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Flight_of_the_Conchords_episodes

i guess that's why they ended it with going back to New Zealand.....

I hope they get a 3rd season. After a slow start, Season 2 got all the way back to the S1 quality.
of course, judging by this thread, it looks like i'm the only one that watched it to the end....

3/26/2009 11:33:23 PM

I watched it to the end. I doubt there is gonna be a third season though. They never even planned on a second season, the only reason they made one was because their fans really wanted one. They didn't really even want to do a second season.

3/26/2009 11:49:09 PM

i'm pretty sure they are on record saying that there will be no season 3

[Edited on March 26, 2009 at 11:52 PM. Reason : will]

3/26/2009 11:51:35 PM

3/27/2009 12:12:37 AM

Sounds like I'm alone on this one, but I thought S2 was way <<<<<<<< S1. Really felt like they were stretching at times. Don't get me wrong, there were some funny moments... but not very many classic songs, where S1 was chock full of 'em.

3/27/2009 10:46:36 AM

Mel was sitting 15ft away from me during dinner tonight she was with her bf who is a writer from the daily show

6/15/2009 8:54:29 PM

is she as funny looking IRL as she is on TV?
or does she accentuate her quirks for tv?

6/15/2009 8:56:22 PM

she looked 100% the exact same - but didn't talk all crazy like

6/15/2009 9:02:24 PM

i have a crush on her and i have no idea why

it boggles my mind

"Emmy-nominated "Flight of the Conchords" will also likely return, with executives making a third season sound very probable.
