Flight Of The Chonchords

BarryCreed

I assume all you folk based in Aus/NZ have religiously watched this!! Got me a copy of it recently, and have got half way through the series. It's one of the funniest shows around, for me, anyways....

Use it as a conversation starter if you happen to be talking to a nice Kiwi bloke/woman...;)

I have one of the albums and honestly I didn't laugh once.

Haven't seen the show though.

Watched the whole series on the plane on the way over and thought they were pretty good, doubt listening to the music on it's own is really worth it though as it seems like it pretty situation dependant on what's going on in that episode.

Is there only the one series of it?

BarryCreed

No, the songs on their own aren't as funny, as the lyrics relate to what's going on in the episode. I still think the songs are funny on their own, but funnier within an episode. C'mon Xavi, you mean you don't think the song in French isn't funny or the motha ucka song, or the "business time" or even "leggy blonde"...

Xavi6

Nope didn't 'get' the album at all.

BarryCreed

maybe it's a show people either like or not, maybe there's no in between...?

anyways..

*shakes fist* steeeeve.

A friend of ours (a kiwi) told me to watch this before i left for NZ. I cried laughing it was so good. The first episode I thought was weird but then i got really in to it. The album is only good if you've seen the shows really.

kittex

Yup, funny show but album is just kind of pointless without watching the shows.

I was told about this, but have never got to see an episode.

are they still showing it on any of the channels? I dont have Foxtel so we're talking 7, 9, 10, or SBS!

BarryCreed

plenty of stuff on youtube, but i think its better to watch it as a full episode..

One Cold Hand

Meh, never found this funny. I don't think I've watched a full episode, but I certainly watched about three quarters of one and don't remember laughing once.

Tar.Aldarion

Haven't seen their series, their stand up is hilarious. Great songs.

It used to be on Sunday nights on ABC I think. But it's finished now. You can get the DVD in Borders for about $30. I love this show, think it's hilarious. I'd recommend checking out the you-tube clips first though, if you like them then it's well worth investing in the DVD.

Sorry, I can't find the page now that I look for it again, it was probably bull anyway to honest. I did read that they've finished filming the eight and final season of scrubs though so a guest appearance is unlikely unless they bring scrubs back with a different cast (because the original cast have mostly decided to leave after the eighth season). I found that at this link BUT! I have to warn you that the page contains season 8 spoilers.
