This show is good

I wasn't wild about the first episode, but I'm now a fan of HBO's eccentric but understated Flight of the Conchords. Tony Award winner Sutton Foster (The Drowsy Chaperone) will return in a recurring role as Bret's crush, as shown here....

I'll check it out, it looked like a watered down version of Extras, which I was so/so on. I loved Patrick Stewarts film idea though...

I'm with you. The first episode was kind of hit and miss, but with each following episode, I seem to like it more. It takes a while to get into the tone of the show.

I think this last one about the muggers was the best.

I didn't see that much of Extras, but this seems quite different to me...in everything Ricky Gervais has done post-Office he just seems to be vamping in my opinion. FOTC is much weirder.

"Getting into the tone" is a good way to put it. After 3 episodes I'm convinced Jemaine is acting, just underplaying everything so much we can't tell....
