flight of the conchords

Petrov has decided that paying the cable company $95/month is enough, so he therefore does not get HBO. However, a large black man in chinatown was kind enough to provide Petrov with a dvd of the pilot for Flight of the Conchords and then offered to take his picture, which petrov declined politely. Petrov was unsure of what this was meant to accomplish as petrov has not seen the show, so he wouldn't know what to say with the camera rolling.

anyway... petrov watched the pilot tonight. he was pleasantly surprised to discover that the show was actually quite funny. funny in that stupid indie/foreign way, not '40 year old virgin' way. petrov supposes the best way of describing the show is a kiwi musical version of the office. (Note: kiwi = 'new zealander'... for those not international inclined) its basically like the office, except its about this two-man band and every once in awhile the guys break out in song, while the world around them continues as if they are not singing. the best part... they aren't bad singers.

here is one of the song outbreaks....
