They’re back on TV very soon too. Yes!
We’ve got a personal message to the Head of Programming at HBO, Mr Dave Random-Name*, after he decided to bring back Flight of the Conchords for a one-off TV special.
“Oh, you’re a legend Dave!”
FYI, we’ve no idea if that’s his name or not, but facts wouldn’t make this gag work so well.

Well, we’re delighted to say that Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie are back and they even performed a new track, Father and Son, on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.
Good man Murray, finally getting the lads a decent booking!
The group were promoting their upcoming HBO special Flight of the Conchords: Live at the London Apollo, which will air October 6th. The performance marked a return for the duo, whose HBO series ran for two seasons in 2008 and 2009.
As for the new track, it’s a bit warped as a “a guy and his little guy” talk about why this boy’s mother isn’t around any longer.
Spoiler alert: a guy named Trevor is partially to blame, but things just get weirder and weirder as things go on. Well, what else did you expect from the brilliant duo?
Take a look.
