Well I was hoping to kick of this blog with talking about Family Guy, American dad and Desperate housewives. But again for some reason they aren’t on, what is the point in small mid season breaks. I’m really annoyed at Family Guy which had over 2 months break now has another break, oh well lets hope the episodes are worth waiting for.
Right well one good thing that came from today was Flight of the Conchords S02E06 “Same Girl” (please bare in mind I watch all episodes the day after being released in America). Yet another funny episode carrying on from the great episode last week. Really thought at the beginning of the season that it looked like FOTC has ran out of good material. You have to love the randomness of FOTC as who else could write a episode with songs containing subject matter such as epileptic dogs.
The first song was well done but felt it dragged on a bit, Also I’m sure “same girl” said her name was Barbra not Brahbrah at the start, anyway it was nice to see Kristen Wigg again after her performance in Ghost town but she did seem to be acting the same type of character, comment on this if you think I’m incorrect.
Major spoiler alert!!!!!!!
Anyway here’s my super short summary of this episode. Bret and Jemaine meet a girl name Barbra while jogging as she has lost her dog. They both immediately fall in love with her and start trying to win her over. They find out that her dog has epilepsy and set out to gain her heart (that sounds soppy) with this information in mind. So of course they write a song about it and have a fight. Bret then arranges a charity event for epileptic dogs and in turn play a retro song with flashing light which makes all the epileptic dogs have a fit. Just before this though Barbra takes a dog and claims it to be hers until the owner asks for it back. She then admits its not hers. After the charity gig had been abruptly ended Murray tells “same girl” to choose between Bret and Jemaine, she then says I thought they were a couple and as Jemaine says what gave you that impression Mel comes out with photos of Bret and Jemaine’s love child. She chooses Bret and walks off with him when it is revealed that her dog has been missing for 6 years lol.
Great episode, 3.5/5
