This is one of my absolute favorite shows. I first started out liking the band and their music, having no idea that they had a show. Then, I started watching the show and ended up liking it even more than the songs. The show is very calm and slow-paced, despite being set in New York City. Bret and Jemaine (that's how their names are spelled) are two struggling (and I'm putting as much emphasis on the word) musicians trying to become famous. Throughout the two seasons, they encounter many strange people, including a Simon and Garfunkel-obsessed sex addict and even a racist fruit vendor. One of the funniest characters on this show has to be Murray Hewitt, the band's manager. Bret and Jemaine are very good musicians and their songs often coincide with the situation before they are played. A must-watch for any comedy and/or music fan. Nine out of ten.

I loved the first season of this show, but the second season has just been abysmal, and I'm hard pressed to think it's even the same SHOW! Does anybody have any idea what happened? I don't think I've ever seen a show do such a 180! Even the songs are worse, they just seem half-assed and written as filler instead of the story being written around the songs. I've noticed that Bret is also a lot more "confident" which really sucks, he was way funnier as the really shy and submissive guy in Season 1. I really hope they can turn it around for the second half of the season. (Although Murray is still hilarious as ever). Has anybody else noticed this, or am I alone and I should just put down the bong?

This is one of the best shows I've ever seen and it truly is one of the funniest. Jemaine and Bret are one of the best comedy duos since Laurel and Hardy. The humor is dry and perfect. SEASON 1: I can't compare this season to any others because it's been the only so far but it is a wonderful kick off to the series. The characters are hilarious. My favorite episodes are "Mugged," "Bowie," "The Actor," and "The Third Conchord," but they are all hilarious and you need to see the entire season.I will add a review of season two when it comes out in 2009. Until then, check out this season and be prepared to laugh your head off. I know I did.

I love them because they don't try to be something they're not.This is one of the few shows I actually enjoy watching, and one of the only shows I've actually laughed out loud to until I cried. Their timing is perfect, their songs are catchy and hilarious, and they aren't afraid to be awkward or show their true colors.Probably best watched with friends to laugh along with (the CD is also lots of fun to sing along with in the car with friends), this show is always amusing and holds the attention of even the most fickle viewers (me being one of them).An instant 'cult' phenomenon, but maybe on its way to wider audiences.
