Currently Watching: Flight Of The Conchords
If you haven't seen the show before, let me put this into context for you: in the episode I'm watching right now, the two characters just gave their rap names, "Hiphippopotamus" and "Rhymenoceros."
One thing I'm noticing is that the character Jermaine, the one with the glasses, is probably autistic. I base this on the characteristic of literal thinking that is common in autism:
Autistic people tend to take things literally. They may have trouble with metaphors, sarcasm, and figures of speech - failing to recognize the difference between a joke and something serious.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
Oh, and this too:
The show is quite possibly the funniest show I've ever seen in my life. They break into musical numbers that are hilarious and actually pretty good, typically being inspired by classic pop genre music: 80's, funk, soul, etc. In a lot of ways it reminds me of an old bandmate I used to have who would randomly start playing his guitar to whatever banal thing was happening in our lives at that moment.
Check out the show whenever you get a chance. I give it a 10 out of 2!

Thanks for reminding me of this show! I'm going to check it out soon as I can.
I recommend it! It strikes me as the kind of show that people will either really like or not get at all.
I remember seeing these small snippets earlier and loving them but as time passed I forgot about it. I'll find a way to view the series. Shame it isn't on netflix !
It's all right here in the usual place:

oh you bad dog, you!
Is that not how people in America get TV (and everything else)? - it's either http://1337x.to/ or thepiratebay.org for everything from software to movies in NZ.
America is split between those who still watch classical television, and those who just use Netflix and YouTube. Honestly, I don't think that torrenting is as popular as it used to be.
You might get TV without torrents but you are buggered if you want the latest expensive stuff!

It's actually on Netflix, but not streaming.
Might not be on the Netflix of my country but I'll check it. I hate how the content changes between countries..
An awesome show - I'm glad somebody outside of New Zealand appreciates it!
This was another very cool NZ show:

Haha, I haven't watched this show in so long!
You might recognize the voice of this singer if you have watched Rick and Morty! ;)
I haven't watched Rick and Morty. I've heard people talk about it but haven't seen anything yet.
Does this voice sound familiar?
Haha awesome! Haven't watched that!
