your beard is woven of heartache

In between my exciting schedule of not-studying (OMG WHY AM I NOT DONE YET, DAMN YOU U OF O), sleeping for obscene amounts of time each day, eating my weight in sandwiches (dunno, I've had a bizarre number of sandwiches these last few days) and hanging out with Lisa and Tania for the first time in eons, I have been watching Flight of the Conchords, season 2.

WHY IS THIS SHOW SO AMAZING? Every time I see an episode I think I've found a new favourite song, and then I watch the next episode and I change my mind.

But I haven't seen the last episode yet, so



I rest my case.

Also, [livejournal.com profile] wild_sibyl/[livejournal.com profile] hysteriagalore, Bret has worn velvet suits/jackets at least twice this season.

Flight of the Conchords = ♥ I love those boys - way to represent my homeland, guys :D Just when I think I can't love them enough, they win me over again and again. I recommend their 'mockumenary' that they did for NZ TV a few years ago pre-HBO series when they go to Texas to take part in a music festival: Flight of the Conchords - A Texan Odyssey. It is hilarious.

Ooo I do love me some mockumentaries, I'll have to see if I can find it online.

I uploaded it to [livejournal.com profile] conchords_hbo the other day - you have to join the community though, but definitely worth it in my opinion. I watched the first part on Youtube and was annoyed to notice that the other parts didn't exist!

OMG AWESOME I JUST DOWNLOADED AND WATCHED IT TYVM

It was pretty hilarious. I especially enjoy their reactions to creepy fans.

You're welcome! I'm all about spreading the Conchord love at the moment! Plus it is nice to see the boys act relatively like themselves :) The scary fan lady with the lips was especially hilarious. I love how Bret shamelessly just loses it and Jemaine really just doesn't know how to react. ♥

It IS nice to see them act like themselves, or close enough.

Oh man you've gotta wonder about some people. For one thing I like to imagine that if by some bizarre twist of fate I did meet any celebrity I admired, I wouldn't automatically make them think of a restraining order. And then there's the issue of "even if you carry a picture of Jemaine's lips in your purse, WHY WOULD YOU SHOW JEMAINE?"

But it was still hilarious.

Haha, for definite. More like big giant neon signs pointing and saying "LOOK AT ME AND HOW CREEPY AND STALKER-LIKE I AM". I don't thinK I could ever do that. I've met a few famous people ("met" as in "hung around stage doors, etc") but I wouldn't be showing them pictures of themselves that I carry around (not that I do) or being there like... everyday or something. WHUT.
