JOSHUAJENKINSis unremarkable

I can't justify subscribing to HBO or staying up to date with pop-culture. The first doesn't agree with my wallet, the second would devastate the street-cred I've been building for years. That's why I haven't seen Flight of the Conchords (the show) until recently.

Over the past few days I've been wading my way through the first season. I'm very bummed that only twelve twenty-six minute episodes exist, but it's better to have loved and lost or, something, I don't think this reference is going to pan out.

So the show; it's hilarious. Comedy gold boiled down and laced with crack. Essentially it's two guys from New Zealand that are in a band, have anywhere from zero to three fans and occasionally pursue women. Oh, and they break into song when necessary. That's it. There's a little plot thrown in there but it's really just a hilarious visual television-show version of their comedy act.

That's all you need to know.
