Some of the BEST TV you will EVER watch and laugh at!
So, just when Patrick was feeling depressed and useless after 9 years of The Sopranos ended recently, we saw the trailer for the new lineup of shows on HBO. It was eerie how we both were not really paying attention and then were both quiet and suddenly drawn into "The Flight of the Conchords" commercial - it didn't give much info, and it's almost indescribable - you just have to watch it. But I will tell you that it is by far one my most favorite shows of all time and one of the wittiest, unique and clever writing and song-writing you will ever see on a TV show. It's about a real-life duo from New Zealand, Bret and Jermaine, who come to NYC to try and be a success with their band, The Flight of the Conchords". It's part musical, part comedy and extremely different! Jermaine - evidently the main song-writer of the 2 - is so monotone and drab, but HILARIOUS - as P said, "The kind of cool guy that you'd like to hang around and have a drink with." Well, he said something to that extent. Bret, the skinny heartthrob is sweet, and the better singer of the two - and the way they play off each other and their chemistry is truly amazing stuff! I HIGHLY recommend it!!!!! 5 stars out of 5!!!

HIlarious lyrics! "you're so beautiful:like a tree. Or a high-class prostitute. You're so beautiful: you could be a part-time model. Although you probably have to keep your normal job.."
