Anyone listened to the Boosh radio show?

Listened to it a bit after watching the first series, it's interesting to look at there original episode ideas. There are some hilarious sketches in em aswell that aren't in the tv show

Yep, it was actually my first introduction to the Boosh. Weirdly enough, I think that some parts of the first season were better as radio episodes, but you're always going to have teething problems translating between radio and film. On the other hand, the Tundra song was excellent in both versions so yay

Keep meaning to check out the radio shows, but never got the chance to hear them yet.

There's a compilation cd you can get with em on it. I put it on my old mp3 player - I don't think I've had so many weird looks on buses

oh god, I love the radio show so much! I must have listened to it a trillion times. It's pure vintage Boosh, with so many brilliant characters and sketches. It never gets old. I love Lee Mack's character Graham, he's genius.

i... wasnt hugely impressed actually. only got through two episodes cos i actually got a lift home from work (yay!), but ehh.. maybe it's just my attention problems, and the lack of screen to focus me... and the fact that one of my favourite aspects of the boosh has been the colours and artwork... but the radio series, so far, has left me quite unimpressed. i found it difficult to follow, felt more like several small, barely linked sketches, than an actual episode, and i think i only had one laugh out loud moment.

gonna give it another chance, these things usually do take time to grow on me... but i think if i'd heard this first, and then been informed that they were doing a tv show... i probably wouldnt have arsed myself to watch it.

Interesting, I found my reaction the other way round - heard the radio show, really liked it (think I got directed towards it after rediscovering the greatness that was the Reduced Shakespeare Radio Show), finally got to see some of the TV show and was really put off at first by the look of Season 1 (particularly the introduction to each episode, I get what they were trying for but I thought they were just annoying, partly because it reminded me of dreck like Kenan & Kel). Wasn't until I sat through a few eps of Season 3 on TV that I got into the TV show...

I miss the intros.

I actually found a Mighty Boosh podcast today... I haven't listened to it yet though.

Oh... and I have a recording of Bob Fossil reading Hamlet.

Actually, I meant to post about this the other day - has anyone listened to the commentary tracks on any of the DVDs? I tried a couple of them from Season 3 recently and they are entertaining but bizarre, much like the show itself. Some very naive part of me expected them to be relatively on-topic and actually discuss the episode, but they're nothing like that...
