The show is based around the real life band The Flight of the Conchords, but is a satirized version of their real lives. Since the show is about a band, every episode has at least one of the band's songs. The show stars the real-life members of the band, Bret McKenzie and Jermaine Clement, who play comedic versions of themselves on the show. The band, along with their band manager Murray, is from New Zealand, so there is an added bonus of hearing fun accents while you're watching.
This show is absolutely hilarious and showcases very dry, subtle humor, which I think is the best kind. Bret constantly quits the band and wears funny crew neck sweatshirts with animals on them, while Jermaine interacts awkwardly with most people he meets and wears collared shirts and blazers, reminiscent of a disco man.
Literally everything about this show is perfect. It is really quirky and weird, and the songs the guys sing are absolutely hilarious and tie into whatever is happening in their lives. Unfortunately, the show only lasted for two seasons. If you like humor similar to that in Napoleon Dynamite (my favorite movie,) you will love Flight of the Conchords as much as I do.
Have a great week and thanks for reading :)
