Let There Be Flight

Stuart Bailie|21:11 UK time, Friday, 9 January 2009

I'm ever so pleased that series two of Flight Of The Conchords is imminent. In fact, you can see the first programme by following this link.

Brett and Jermaine are writing a toothpaste jingle and Greg Proops walks in out of nowhere as an industry mogul. If you're a bit obsessive about these things, then there's a DVD from Rhys Darby called Live - Imagine That, which is full of non- sequiturs, sound effects, robot skits and rip-snorting celebrations of New Zealand.

    Waiting til the weekend to watch it. Can't wait! I am very intrigued to see Murray as a success (wasn't sure if they would keep that on as a plot, I thought things would just be back to normal).



    Listening to "Cheer up Murray" in work as I type. Genius.



    That Rhys Darby DVD is on my Amazon wishlist, you can tell from Conchords he's naturally a very funny guy!

    I never really got into this show. I've seen a couple episodes, but I found in more boring than anything. It kinda reminds me of Wes Anderson's stuff - boring for the most part with a couple clever moments. But to each his own I guess. I didn't like Reservoir Dogs the first time I watched it, but I do now.
