| Despite living as Big Apple bohemians for over a year, Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie ("New Zealand's 4th Most Popular Folk Parody Duo") remain as hopelessly out of place in Manhattan as a kiwi in a pigeon nest. Will Season 2 bring them excitement, romance, and the elusive music gig? This two disc collection includes all 10 episodes from The Complete Second Season of Flight of the Conchords! |

Editor's Note
Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, better known as FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS, have moved from New Zealand to New York City in an attempt to make it big in the United States. Unfortunately, their mix of "digi-bongo-rap-comedy-folk" doesn't sit well with an American audience, and their hilariously incompetent band manager, Murray (Rhys Darby), is not helping the situation. This collection presents the irreverent show's complete second season.
