Episode of the Day: Episode 1: “Sally”

Mon, 07 Jan 2008 23:01:12 +0000

I know I talked a little about Episode 1 before in the podcast post, but I didn’t put up anything like a plot synopsis, so her ya go… (To read HBO’s synopsis, click here)

So, this is obviously the pilot of Flight of the Conchords. Bret and Jemaine have just recently moved to New York, to Queens specifically, and they’re talking about girls Jemaine has dated in New Zealand. They go to a party at Dave’s, a guy who runs a pawn shop in town, and Jemaine sees a girl from across the room who he is attracted to instantly. This is when the song “The Most Beautiful Girl in the Room” plays. Jemaine invites Sally for a kebab and then over to his apartment. Hoewever, everything stops and Sally goes home after Bret turns on the light in his bedroom.

Jemain and Bret have a conversation in the morning about what made Sally leave. Jemaine thinks it was the light. Bret thinks it’s because he and Sally dated for 6 months. I wonder who was right. Anyway, there’s a montage where Jemaine takes Sally on a bunch of dates, and Bret gets mad about Jemaine wanting the apartment. Somewhere in the middle of all this the “Robots” song gets played, which is hilarity at its finest, although the duo is mad that they don’t look like Daft Punk.

Jemaine and Bret eventually go on a date together with Sally. It proves too awkward, though, and Bret leaves just before his duck comes. Jemaine and Sally are walking after dinner and Sally tells him that she doesn’t want to date anymore. Cue the song, “Not Crying,” a song describing how Jemaine is going to miss Sally and how Bret misses Jemaine. Very epic, very beautiful.

It is a great episode and a valuable lesson about dating an ex of a best friend. Usually, this is a bad practice. Thank you, FOTC, for keeping us educated.

Podcast Of The Day: FOTC Episode 1

Wed, 02 Jan 2008 20:26:46 +0000

If you haven’t done this already, this is definitely the first step you need to take if you’re going to be a reader for this FOTC blog….

Go to your iTunes fabulousness (If you don’t have iTunes, I’m afraid of you. Where have you been? Whatever, get an iTunes account)
Go either to the iTunes Store or your Podcast page, and go to the Podcast directory…or search for “Flight of the Conchords.”
Subscribe to their free podcast
Enjoy hilarity during the off-season

Okay, is everyone up to speed now? Great, then let’s begin.

My Podcast of the Day is the first episode of Flight of the Conchords. It’s the first podcast download that was available to all fans around May. I’m not sure if you can get it anymore, since I subscribed quite the while back, but if you can, check it out. You’ll get to see great songs like “I’m Not Crying,” “The Most Beautiful Girl in the Room,” and “Robots.” I’ll go more into episode detail during my episode features, and I’ll also be talking about the songs in each episode separately, but this is a good intro for the episode and for the blog, methinks. Yes, I just said “methinks.”

So, go off, find a way to see episode 1, be it podcast or otherwise, and get ready for more FOTC talks!
