Hey, time for some very old housekeeping. I've been working on Flight of the Conchords in its very brief two-season entirety for, God, probably a few years now! There are only twenty-two episodes of this show, just eleven hours - why has it taken me this long to get through it?
[Looks left, looks right, leans in real close.]
It's taken this long because the show, ah, hmm, shit. How do I say this? The show just isn't that good! I know that's not a popular opinion - hell I'm unhappy I've got that opinion - but at no point in two seasons did the show grab me and make me think, "alright, sure, let's marathon through this stuff, this is a riot!" I'm not sure why! Are the songs too weird? Does the show look too cheap? Are the jokes just not quite funny enough? It's amazing how old this already feels, just ten years later.
At any rate, that's curtains for Flight of the Conchords. Glad to be done, honestly! One more show crossed off the old backlog.
