i checked out the 30 min special on demand the other night and thought it was much better than the season premiere yesterday. the special is sort of a mix between stand up comedy and an acoustic concert (Tenacious D style). i think these guys are great musicians, and wildly hilarious. they\'re comedy hits that slanted subtle funny. i really like what i\'ve seen so far and will continue to watch.
for newbs, i recomend watching the flight of the concords special first.
I agree, the "stand-up" special is very funny, it kinda makes the actual show funnier just cause you\'re familiar with the material. I like the show, will def be watching next week.
i don\'t know if anybody\'s been watching the rest of the season at all, but it has really grown on me and i think it is the funniest original tv comedy i\'ve seen in a while. absolutely on demand this show if you haven\'t seen it yet or if you liked it but stopped watching.
Dave: What\'s a Chinese junk? Bret: It\'s a kind of ship. Dave: Oh yeah sure. Women love that kind of sensitive nautical ****. Bret: Really? Dave: Yeah. Haven\'t you ever seen Watership Down? Bret: No. Dave: Well me neither, but women love that film.
