 Mutha'ucking funny November 29, 2008
If your a fan of The Boosh, It Crowd, Spaced, Red Dwarf then you've got to buy this. One of the funniest tv progs ever made.
Its full of very funny songs (you may also want to get the cd)you'll be singing them for days after. The songs arnt as dark as the ones in The Boosh and the Characters are more the lovable loser type.
I found myself watching this over and over again (just like IT Crowd and Red Dwarf) and I still find it very funny.
If you liked this you also should check out the film Eagle Vs Shark.

I tuned in to this more by luck than judgement.... became hooked and had to buy this DVD. These guys are just so naturally funny and the song writing is just spot on, they sing the way you think..... taken over from the Mighty Boosh as my favourite alternate comedy!
Funniest thing I've seen in years! September 30, 2008
Absolutely hilarious - and like Queen Victoria, I'm not easily amused. All of the characters are likeable and off the wall. I hope they are going to make a follow-up because I would definately pre-order it.
excellent simple as that September 11, 2008

I was expecting nothing when i put this dvd in i had never even heard of them but it was genius from start to finish i loved it . I find it slightly annoying that every one keeps mentioning mighty boosh i love that show too but this is nothing like it . I hate stupid people who think that because the conchords do songs they are copying the boosh ! Jasper carrot used to do songs so maybe the boosh are copying him ! IDIOTS
Excellent, wonderfully balanced comedy August 7, 2008
Fans of the Boosh will delight at the exploits Flight of the Conchords, the self-styled 4th most famous New Zealand folk-parody duo. This is a comedy show that takes a little from many of the best comedy shows from the past decade and then mixes it all up in a relatively fresh and gloriously quirky way. The deadpan humour of the Office is highly evident as are the flights of comedic whimsy and humourous fantasy one might find in any Boosh show. The offbeat tone will appeal to anyone who loved Napoleon Dynamite and the musical numbers (some of the best musical comedy I've heard in recent years) come across as a mix between Bill Bailey and a less rude Tenacious D (in improvisational tone anyway). Bret and Jemaine play off one another superbly and are ably supported by unsung hero of the series Rhys Darby as their goateed failure of a manager Murray. Kristen Schaal as fanatic sole fan Mel and Arj Barker as the would-be-cool-Brooklyn-boy-but-still-lives-with-parents Dave also provide giggles along the way.
With fewer tendencies to go off on a random tangent than the Mighty Boosh, and the odd whiff of the Pythonesque at times, this might just be the hip new comedy series that everyone both old and young can get into.
