Flight Of The Conchords Pokes Fun At Karaoke

Last night's Flight Of The Conchords had a cameo by Art Garfunkel, of all people, but my favorite part was this song in which the show makes fun of what is lost in translation between those who make karaoke videos and those who use them. (It's funnier than I'm making it sound!):

Love is like "The milk of a cow who has done nothing wrong." It's about time someone took down Big Karaoke. In other Conchords news, Bret and Jemaine did an interview with the New York Times Magazine this weekend.

Good episode - Bret's African-years Paul Simon at the end was a nice touch to a great episode.

Don't forget an Eastbound & Down post! Another hilarious and poignant (she's the one who bought his home-run bat off ebay! awwwww) installment gives me hope this show will stick around!

The season started off horribly but gets stronger every week. Good episode last night.

Someone really needs to tell me where i can watch this season online. People like me (i.e. poor people) don't get HBO, but we still enjoy good comedy.

It's called Google. If you use it correctly, it will be your best friend.

I think this season has/had way too much Murray in it. He's funny in small doses, but hearing his shrill voice everywhere is too much for me.

I had my RA knock on my door and ask if I was alright because I was moan-laughing so hard at this.
