HBO has renewed hit comedy Flight of the Conchords for a second season!
Starring the New Zealand music-comedy duo of Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, and co-created by James Bobin, Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, Flight of the Conchords follows transplanted New Zealanders Jemaine and Bret, who live on New York City’s Lower East Side and split their time between seeking venues where they can perform and awkwardly courting women. Sometimes finding it easier to express themselves with music, they’re apt to break into song at a moment’s notice.
The 12-episode first season of Flight of the Conchords has sparked critical raves, with the New York Times calling the show “very funny” and “deliciously absurd.” Rolling Stone hails the series as “hilarious,” while the San Francisco Chronicle terms it “the funniest thing you’ve seen in ages,” as well as “brilliant,” and the Los Angeles Times notes that the show is “consistently funny.”
Flight of the Conchords’ EP “The Distant Future” was released by Sub Pop Records on Aug. 7. It includes “Business Time,” “If You’re Into It” and “Not Crying,” as well as live versions of “The Most Beautiful Girl in the Room” and “Robots.” A full-length Conchords album in Jan. 2008.
