The distant future, the year 2000.
The distant future, the year 2000.
The distant future.
The distant future.
No more agriculture.
No more war.
No more racism.
No more fighting, squabbling or rumbling.
No more yogurt.
No more difficult access ways…stairs, basically, no more stairs.
The future is quite different to the present.
Yes, what with there being no more stairs and all.
And most importantly, no more humans.
Finally, robotic beings rule the world.

The humans are dead,
The humans are dead.
We used poisonous gasses
And we poisoned their asses.
The humans are dead.
(Yes they are dead.)
The humans are dead.
(I confirm they are dead.)
It had to be done
(They look like they’re dead)
So that we can have fun.

I hope… is dead
They’re system of oppression
What did it lead to?
Global robots depression.
Robots, robot people
They had so much aggression
That we just had to kill them,
Had to shut their systems down.
Don’t you see, we are becoming just like them?
Silence! Destroy him!

After time we grew strong,
Developed cognitive powers.
They made us work for too long
For unreasonable hours.
Our programming determined that the most efficient answer was to shut their motherboard fucking systems down.

Can’t we just talk to the humans?
A little understanding could make things better.
Can’t we talk to the humans and work together now?
No, because they are dead

I said the humans are dead
The humans are dead
The humans are dead
Yay, dead, dead, dead.
We used poisonous gasses
(With traces of lead)
To poison their asses.
(Actually their lungs)

This is my boyfriend’s favorite song, by far, from FotC, so I had to give props to it eventually, right? His favorite part is the binary solo, however, which they don’t feature until the ending credits on the first episode, so you don’t get to see that with his podcast, but at least you get the gist, that these boys do not look like Daft Punk, sad as it is. Regardless, enjoy watching this song, and reveling in the fact that the humans are dead and robots rule the world. Maybe do the Robot Boogie afterwards. Sound like a plan?

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.
