  1. The level of cleverness of Flight of the Conchords is off the charts.

    The duo's knack for a peculiarly modest zaniness is shared with the brilliant supporting cast.
  3. That the two men are in their 30s makes their perseverance more poignant--to somewhat overstate the case--and that they have no money places them in a long and honorable line of comedians who cannot put two cents together to buy a glass of seltzer.

    They've taken what they had in season one and built on it. The songs are just as funny, but the episodes surrounding them have gotten better. Episode 5, "Unnatural Love" is one of the funniest half-hours of television I've seen. Expand

    Terrible compared to the first season. The songs are awkward, the plots weak and it just doesn't feel as natural as the first season. I don't understand how it got this bad so quickly, surely the writers for the first season didn't all quit at once. Season 2 is often when shows hit their stride, and with this being the final season, it's a shame that it had to go downhill so quickly and is likely to end on a low note. Thankfully season 1 can be watched over and over again on DVD. Though it is only episode 6 at the time I wrote this, it is unlikely they will recover and end well. Episodes 1 and 2 were quite good, a lot like Season 1. After that it is just sad. Expand

    Wow, i really can't understand how people who liked the first series can enjoy the second. I was and still a huge fan of the first, but the second...what can i say, it is so dissapointing. Flat scenarios, mediocre songs, and the only things that 0bret and jemain seem to do is to look stupid and mostly silent...shame. Expand
