It is brilliant and I'm surprised (and delighted) that it's being watched by so many people. It is very clever and the humor is sly and subtle. Love the musical references. I'd have to say that the "Lord of the Rings" episode is my absolute favorite. I have the DVD of the first season and I've watched that episode about six times already. I also think the obsessed, creepy stalker character of Mel is just fantastic. I love Flight of the Conchords.

I realize that they need time to tour and write new material, but the wait is agonizing, and my frustration is compounded by the improbability that they will visit a city near my podunk town on their tour this year. Luckily, I have a cryogenic stasis preservation chamber to cram myself into. Wake me when it's January, or when there is a cure for my mental illness- whichever comes first (January).

I've seen some episodes multiple times. The BBC radio show is great as well. This show is also extremely rewatchable. I’ve seen some episodes multiple times.

The humor is so niche and the references are so subtle that I have a hard time imagining a big audience getting behind it, especially when masses of brain-dead neanderthals are glued to dreck like Two and a Half Men. But I'm definitely excited to see it do well. I’m honestly amazed that it’s being watched by so many people.

A second season should help get the word out.
