I didn't want to start a new topic, so I thought I'd reply here.

I think it's great stuff. It's not ground-breaking, maybe, but I think it's hilarious. This last week's show was priceless.

Start at 1:58 and watch until 4:31. If you're not laughing by the end, don't bother watching.

I too like the rap song the best probably.

"Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis?
Did Steve tell you that, perchance?
Steve."

"Other rappers dis me
Say my rhymes are sissy.
Why? Why? Why?
What?
Why exactly?
What? Why?
Be more constructive with your feedback, please. Why?
Why?"

Some of their live stuff you can watch on YouTube is also funny b/c there is audience interaction and laughter.

LOL!
"How could that be gay if I put a wig on you and pretend you're a woman?"

Great show!

I also like "Part time model" from the first show..

I like this show a lot. The songs are clever and I also enjoy the dry deadpan of the rest of the show. It might not be big, but it definitely has all the makings of a cult hit.

It's a fake reality show with songs, like Tenacious D's and Chris Isaak's old shows.

The D was better though of course :)

I'm almost positive they have a new record out.

The show is funny overall. It's hit or miss sometimes, but it's good for the most part.

The David Bowie episode was hee-larious.

As someone said, the dry deadpan is key to most of it. I like the tourism posters in Murray's office with captions like: New Zealand ... Why not?

Frodo, don't wear the ring

Yo Frodo, what you doin? wearing the ring?
All powerful jewelry, is that your new thing?
I know it?s hard when you?re little more than 3 foot 4
Your little ass so close to the floor.
Trying to lead the fellows to the gates of Mordor
The Fellowship!
(Yea the fellowship)
I don?t rap about bitches and hos,
I rap about witches and trolls,
just passing on the words of the Elven king,
Wisdom to all
Frodo! Don?t wear the ring!


Frodo don?t wear the ring,
The magical bling bling,
You?ll never be the Lord of the Rings
