Flight of the Conchords :: Business Time...

Last week, I watched the first five minutes of the new HBO series Flight of the Conchords starring the New Zealand duo Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie. Five minutes in and I was wondering why in the hell HBO would greenlight a series starring these two guys. But then Jemaine inexplicably breaks into song at a party, and I was immediately hooked. It's rare that a show makes me laugh-out-loud anymore; I guess MMB is getting bitter in his old(er) age. But the show is pure joy to watch because Jemaine and Bret let you in on the jokes. Flight of the Conchords proves just how fun being lame can be.

If you like these clips, check out Flight of the Conchords on HBO. New episodes air Sundaya at 10:30.
