Hells yes it is great!

I'll never get over this...

"No, I said a central park in Newark." Damn you, Murray!

Hello they are nominated for Best Comedy Series at the Emmy's. That is huge. Jermaine also got a Best Actor nod. None for Brett though . They got like 5 or 6 in totally.

I hear there isn't going to be a 3rd season. What sort of blasphemy is this?!?!

Form what I understand, it's not actually decided yet. HBO wants a third season, but the Conchords themselves aren't sure.

There was a recent quote from Bret's mom that suggested that there actually is going to be a third season but they're taking a break for a while to refuel.

Maybe with their music career skyrocketing, they are probably doing more with that. Who knows... not doing another season wouldn't be wise. Then, I couldn't watch it!

Apologies for how Bret-centric these screencaps are. He's my favorite.

Their newest album has a release date!


Quote:
I Told You I Was Freaky


There is so much that could be said regarding Flight of the Conchords. How they hail from New Zealand, the island nation with multiple postal services. Or that, after winning a Best Comedy Album Grammy for The Distant Future in 2007, they were nominated for a second Best Comedy Album Grammy in 2008, but were actually relieved not to win again—-because meaningless trophies really do seem important when you only have one, and have to fight over who gets to keep it. And that during the recently-completed second season of their popular HBO television series, fans could download new songs immediately after they debuted on-air. Or that this same popular HBO television series (conveniently also called Flight of the Conchords) was recently nominated for what-sure-seems-like-a-record-breaking 6 Emmys.

But all that is mere background, fact-based information that, while, granted, is largely true, impressive, and odd, doesn’t really allow us to serve up the steaming plate of rich, delicious and hopefully irresistibly persuasive description for which we (or our hired writers) are somewhat known in certain circles. And so: While Flight of the Conchords hammered out their reputation from behind the relative safety of acoustic guitars, blithely billed as a “folk comedy” act, nowadays their musical style runs rampant, unchecked. Judging from the range displayed here on I Told You I Was Freaky, Flight of the Conchords have yet to unearth a genre which can withstand their artistry. Unflinching in their lyrical stance, sophisticated with their arrangements, crafting melodies which always lodge firmly in the frontal lobe: Flight of the Conchords have created 13 best-selling ringtones, humbly masquerading as songs. Their rhymes are fearless, their thesauruses dog-eared. Only cool, confident specimens of manhood such as these could drop three-dollar vocabulary busters like “dungarees” and “pantaloons” while still mesmerizing the ladies with their undulating “Sugalumps.” Vivid imagery? Check: The ardent “Angels” should spur listeners to think twice the next time they consider catching a snowflake on their tongues. Better still, the amorous odyssey of the album’s zenith, “We’re Both in Love with a Sexy Lady,” unfolds before the listener’s very ears in real time; Flight of the Conchords are making history, and You! Are! There!

I Told You I Was Freaky is, among a great many other things, a genre-tripping tour de force and includes three songs from the second series of the show which are otherwise as yet unreleased (“Rambling Through the Avenues of Time,” “Too Many Dicks (On the Dance Floor)” and “You Don’t Have to Be a Prostitute”).


Released: 2009-10-20 (CD), 2009-10-20 (LP)


1. Hurt Feelings
2. Sugalumps
3. We’re Both in Love with a Sexy Lady
4. I Told You I Was Freaky
5. Demon Woman
6. Rambling Through the Avenues of Time
7. Fashion Is Danger
8. Petrov, Yelyena and Me
9. Too Many Dicks (On the Dance Floor)
10. You Don’t Have to Be a Prostitute
11. Friends
12. Carol Brown
13. Angels

FINALLY.

I remember when Wiki said the album would be out on June 2 and when June 2 rolled around, there was no news at all. (Must have been a mistake.)

MORE great news... Season 2 will be released on DVD on August 4! Good thing too because I haven't seen any episodes. Ma won't buy HBO.

WheresMyUmbrella, thanks for posting that! I Hurt Feelings and Friends. "Nobody compliments the meal." Marry me, Jemaine.
