New Zealand conquered the world in cinematic terms with Peter Jackson's 'Lord of the Rings'. Then came 'Flight of the Conchords'... When I encountered 'Flight of the Conchords' in its first season, I wasn't certain quite what to make of it. What was it? It was almost musical comedy but not quite. Undoubtedly clever and hilarious, it did not fit comfortably into any 'genre'. The humour can be outrageous or it can be sly. Every type of music is explored by this talented pair and every form of humour is adopted with bold assurance. 'Flight of the Conchords' is, in fact, unique, and I became thoroughly addicted to the show. When the 2nd season was released, I could not wait to own it. One of the hallmarks of great comedy is its continuing appeal after countless viewings. 'Flight of the Conchords' is great comedy. In some cases, only the first season of a series is worth keeping but in the case of 'Flight of the Conchords', the second season was as marvelous as the first. I only hope that the return of the Conchords to New Zealand is a temporary setback and that a third season will follow... somehow! And by the way, 'Eagle vs. Shark', also starring Jemaine Clement, is worth the price of admission as well as a wonderful, off-beat comedy.Read full review
Got this for my husband as he's always making references to their songs but somehow didn't have the DVDs yet. Discs are in great condition, as are the boxes themselves. Glad to have found this deal for the complete set.

Now that I can watch FOTC whenever I want, my depression is gone, my skin cleared up, I lost 15 lbs. from laughing. Highly recommend unless you don't have a sense of humor.

I had already seen this on TV but I loved it so much I decided to buy the dvd. I love the absurdist, rather dry humor of this show. The characters are delightfully ridiculous.
