The trials and tribulations of a two man, digi-folk band who have moved from New Zealand to New York in the hope of forging a successful music career. So far they've managed to find a manager (whose "other" job is at the New Zealand Consulate), one fan (a married obsessive) and one friend (who owns the local pawn shop) -- but not much else.

    Andy Millman gave up his day job five years ago in the hope of achieving the big time, but he’s yet to land a speaking part, let alone saunter down the red carpet to pick up an Oscar. He remains optimistic however, as rubbing shoulders with the A-list on-set only serves to reinforce his belief that the big time is just a job or two away.

    Flight of the Conchords, a light hearted shoe based around Bret and Jermaine trying to live the average life of two New Zealander musicians in New York. I really believe this show was a hidden gem and revolutionary for the time. The humour is in the perfect balance of just enough stupidity mixed with dry wit that it works incredibly well. I've found myself coming back to this show after not watching it for years and actually rediscovering them through their music (CO written alongside the show, it's actually really good go listen). Flight of the Conchords brings a low budget chic to it's look and through it's use of transitions and dirty visuals capture the grotty life that the protagonists face. If you haven't watched this show I can more than highly recommend it, I've always loved this show as well as the band so I may be biased but I can guarantee that you will not be disappointed.
