Anyone else watch it?
Dead-set, the funniest show on TV at the moment.
If you've got time, look-up the "Business Time" song on YouTube.

I normally watch it, if I remember its on... reminds me a lot of The Mighty Boosh, which also has 2 musician-y people doing retarded stuff and is also awesome.

The show is too slow for me and annoying but like some songs:
"Business Time" is a cracker
"Humans Are Dead" is good
"Part Time Model" not bad
"If Thats What Your Into" is hilarious, can't believe that can be shown on tv! No im not homophobic or anything lol
But they are all good pisstakes, something a bit different.

have a look on youtube for the new roger federer Nike commercial has 'Murray' in it!
There aint no party like my nanna's tea party!
Got the series and the CD :)
I'm the Hiphopopotamus and my lyrics are bottomless.....
You could be a PART TIME MODEL....but you'd probably have to keep your normal job...

Great call! :D
Funniest show going around. The lads from New Zealand are flipping hilarious. The show rocks and all the songs are not only funny, but they're great to listen to. :thumbsu:

It's a great sitcom, on Sunday nights after Dexter . . . last time this chick wanted to have a threesome with them. Great stuff.

Absolutely hilarious. "Jenny" is a great one - i have watched that youtube clip heaps of times.
"If that's what your into" is one of the funniest pieces of comedy I have ever heard. I kept laughing for an hour after seeing that the first time.
Of COURSE I'm watching, it's totally brilliant.
Murray: He may be dead....
Dave: He maybe did what?
Murray: He may be...DEAD
Dave: Are you guys ****ing with me?
Hard to go past the 'cheer up Murray' song:

PS hard to compare it to wipeout, they're totally different. I do find wipeout funny, but wish they had different hosts - their commentary and diagrams are pretty lame

Was the last episode for the season of the Conchords last night wasnt it? P's me off that I only managed to catch it twice, but can tell a good thing when I see it. Quality stuff. Cool idea to mix music in the way they do. Fully expect the Septics to ripp it off hugely.
I hear that HBO is giving them a whole lotta cash to continue doing it, so look forward to seeing this series repeated before they show the next.
Another show Ive had a cackle at is "Cavemen". Not half as cheesy as it ought to be.

They could be in trouble though, NNFAN.
I think I heard Murray say in an interview that they'd used 95% of their original stuff in the first season.
I don't think we can expect to see Season 2 till 2010.

Aye Carumba!:( I suppose I will go on living though.
Another cult show Ive given up on ever seeing broadcast again is the UKs "Stella Street". The movie was fairly lame, but the TV show ... I haven't laughed at UK comedy so much since the Anarchy of the Young Ones 20 yrs ago. Just gotta get off my ar$e and grab some off ebay I spose.
