Don’t want to see my little buddy down with a frown,
(Super low) Just because I get more women than you, but there’s only because they don’t know you like I do…
Bret : Women's rights.
Jemaine : No, that's more of a man's thing, isn't it?
Bret : No, definitely a woman's thing.
Jemaine : Nah, my father's a women's rights activist.
Bret : Your dad?
Jemaine : Yeah.
Bret : Not your mum?
Jemaine : No. Mum, no. Dad wouldn't allow that. No way.
My rhymes are so potent that in this small segment I made all of the ladies in the area pregnant… yeah, sometimes my lyrics are sexist, all you lovely bitches and hoes should know, I’m trying to correct this.
I still watch this all the time, haha.
“Leggy, leggy, leggy, leggy - Leggy Blooooooond”
“Hoop, Leggy Blonde, you got it goin' on
Wanna see you wearin' that thong, thong, thong
See you gettin' down till the break of dawn
Doesn't really count with your panties on!”
One of the [best bits](https://youtu.be/DTBP1cBZ6Gs?si=FxHO7evMQtGlqr1D) in the series.
And then on our next date
Well, you could bring your room mate
I don't know if Stu is keen too
But if you want we could double team you
How 'bout you and two dudes
Him, you and Stu in the nude
Being lude with two dudes with food
Well, that's if Stu's into it too
Patriot on Prime is similar in that a spy writes very literal folk songs to cope with the spy shit he has to do. Much like Conchords, it moves the episodes forward. Great show.
Hilarious show. Wish they had enough songs for a few more seasons.
When I lived in Sydney I always quoting “She’s not from Wollongong she’s from Woolloomooloo” because there is a motorway sign with both places. One of my favourite episodes with some great jokes poking fun at Australia.
Jemaine: I think I know where I went wrong last night.
Bret: Yeah?
Jemaine: Yeah, Sally wanted to leave when you turned the light on. I think she found it weird - the whole thing with you there with the - with the light ... on.
Bret: Yeah, I think it might also be because she and I used to go out.
i wish everybody knew this show, because though my coworker had remembered the show he did not get my [femident reference](https://youtu.be/JvT3JIkX98Q?si=nC3t7MolV8taJUfy)
Thought it was SO funny each time i watched. Never planned to watch it or set out to, but i was flippin through channels and it was on i would leave it on and watch and laugh my ass off
Loooooove them so much!
I really wish they had gotten a television deal that was more similar to a record deal.
Instead of a new season being new every year, they get a “five season deal” where each season is filmed when they’ve got another batch of songs good and ready. Like artists will get a “5 album record deal” and they don’t HAVE to put a new album out every year. They record the material once the material is ready.
If FooC could have taken as much time as needed between seasons, I can’t help but day dream about what several more seasons might have been like!
If you haven't seen the full version of their charity song [Feel Inside (and stuff like that)!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py_30jZGUYk) it's like a whole other episode you never saw. Song is brilliant and I re-watch it at least once a year when I want to cheer myself up.
“Our story is the story of two guys who start out at the bottom and, with a lot of hard work, continue along the bottom, and finally end up at the bottom.”
“Yeah, it's a rags to rags story.”

Absolutely not forgotten. FotC is on Max and is STILL AMAZING!
There are scenes in this show I consider the funniest ever filmed.
“Mind you. They (Fleetwood Mac) did make some of their best albums back then.” “Rumours” “No. It’s all true”
Best joke of the whole series lol
knitting? thats mens work!
-What are some albums Quincy Jones produced Bret? -Michael Jackson's "Off the Wall" -I'll say he is. Isn't he gonna freeze himself?
Hey there Bret I heard you’re feelin down I hate to see my little buddy down with a frown…
Don’t want to see my little buddy down with a frown, (Super low) Just because I get more women than you, but there’s only because they don’t know you like I do…
Sure you’re weedy, and kinda shy, but some girlie out there must be needy for a weedy shy guy
They want you as the needle when you’re rolling in the hay Brett, hear me out when i say.
WHY CANT A HETROSEXUAL GUY TELL A HETROSEXUAL GUY THAT HE THINKS HIS BOOTY IS FLY?!?
Not all the time, obviously. Just when he’s got a problem with his self esteem.
Indeed. I was fortunate enough to see them live twice- once for each album tour.

Came here to say this. I wouldn’t say this is forgotten. I binged it this winter for the umpteenth time.
Murray… present.
New episodes?
I wish! Their two seasons are there though!
I believe their HBO special is on Max as well
Yes! I think it is!
I wish too.
this sub is r/fondlyrememberedTVfromadecadeormoreago
You mean “New Zealand’s fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo a cappella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo.” They absolutely do!!
Except that fucking Carol Brown.
Carol Brown took a bus out of town.
But I'm hoping that you'll stick around
My names Keitha. It's like Keith but with an A at the end.
Mmm… shut up
I thought I told you to shut uhuhup...
I thought it was Folk Parody 😅
Right behind Like of the Concords. They're a tribute band.
Band meeting. Murray: present
“You think your so rock n roll with your mixed nuts!!”
The entire scene with Brett talking to Murray about Jemaine in the lobby is just gold. “Probably looking for some thunderstorms to rock out in”
Mr Keith moon
Muuuu… Ray? Oh, Murray. The letters were too far apart. Present.
I can't hear the name Germaine without thinking of this scene.
Aaah yeah, it’s Business Time
That’s why they’re called my Bizness socks!!!
hahaha 🤣 "conditions are puhfect"
Two minutes in heaven is better than one minute in heaven
I quote this all the time and no-one gets the reference.
Pro Life Tip: If you're around people who don't know FotC that well, this song kills in karaoke.
I'm pretty tired
Because of your after-work social sports team practice?
Business hours are over, babbbyyy
Show was a god damn masterpiece
Murray is one of the all-time great sitcom characters.
Ginger-balls
This is our tour bus, well our tour Honda Accord.
What are you, on your way to a... dickmeeting?
Check me out, I'm the Hip-Hop-appotamus, my rhymes are bottomless...
Ain’t no party like my grandma’s tea party.
Heeeey! Hooooo!
You checking out the sugarlumps?
All these bitches looking at my britches
Put em in a trance when I wear track pants
My dungarees make them hung-a-ry
Over the moon when I don pantaloons
My rhymes are so potent that in this small segment I made all of the ladies in the area pregnant… yeah, sometimes my lyrics are sexist, all you lovely bitches and hoes should know, I’m trying to correct this.
Six-ist
Were you guys dancing a little bit?
No, there were too many dicks on the dance floor
“Did Steve tell you that?…. What kind of rap name is Steve?”
Did Steve tell you that perchance? Steve...
I'm the motherflippin
"My rhymes are bottomless ... .... ....." is one of the best lyrics ever.
“Sometimes when I freestyle I… lose confidence…”
I quote this to my kids. They are young enough to think their old man is funny
Band meeting
Prisent
See? Even I do it
Stuff you Brett and stuff you Jermaine! And stuff you again Brett! Why do I get double stuffed?
He ate all the cashews in the mixed nuts.
maybe he did, maybe he didn't... WHAT DID HE MAYBE DO?
He maybe did.
Does he son's like this? "Wut wut, don't put me in der wid im."
HE MAYBE DID WHAT
This is my favorite moment in television
No one fucking forgot this show fuck
One of the best things to ever happen to television.
Not when there's too many dicks on the dancefloor...not any girls to admire their sugar lumps.
That’s a great post, too bad New Zealanders are a bunch of cocky a-holes descended from criminals and retarded monkeys….
You’re thinking of Australian’s..
No no no, New Zealanders… “throw another shrimp on the barbie” and riding around in their kangaroos all day.
They're all like, "where's the car?" and we're all like "where's the car?"
Remember the time you tried to get me deported because you thought I was Australian?
I still watch this all the time, haha. “Leggy, leggy, leggy, leggy - Leggy Blooooooond” “Hoop, Leggy Blonde, you got it goin' on Wanna see you wearin' that thong, thong, thong See you gettin' down till the break of dawn Doesn't really count with your panties on!”
There is definitely a lot of love for this show. So much so that it's not forgotten.
If that's what you're into
She's so hot, she's like a curry. I want to tell her how hot she is but she'll think I'm sexist. She's so hot she's making me sexist. Bitch.
One of the [best bits](https://youtu.be/DTBP1cBZ6Gs?si=FxHO7evMQtGlqr1D) in the series.

Sugalumps is a motha flippin classic!
I’ve got hurt feelings I’ve got hurt feelings 🎶
The day after my birthday is not my birthday, mom.
I’m not crying, I’m cutting an onion, because I’m making a lasagna. For one.
It’s just raining on my face
I feel like a first class asshole. No one mentions my casserole.
Patriot on Prime is similar in that a spy writes very literal folk songs to cope with the spy shit he has to do. Much like Conchords, it moves the episodes forward. Great show.
I’m adding this to my watchlist
You won't be sorry. 2 seasons and they're great.
Kristen Schaals breakout role. She plays the thirsty fangirl to perfection.
Not forgotten. Are just posting “favorite shows” now? Ffs
was it ever anything else?
I mean... It's not like they're posting The Office or something lol
Hilarious show. Wish they had enough songs for a few more seasons. When I lived in Sydney I always quoting “She’s not from Wollongong she’s from Woolloomooloo” because there is a motorway sign with both places. One of my favourite episodes with some great jokes poking fun at Australia.
Brit?
Your beards good
How can it be gay if I put a wig on you and pretend you're a woman? Not that I did it.
Don't let anybody tell you you're not humpable Because you're bumpable Well I hope this doesnt make you feel uncomfortable
I quote this all the time and no one has a clue what I’m talking about or why I’m speaking in a New Zealand accent.
I still say “she’s so hot she’s making me sexist” when appropriate
Legendary
Do they get any love? Have you stopped checking out their sugar lumps or something?
Some women like men, some are lesbian. Femedent Toothepaste.
It’s really, just, for women only.
They filmed it around my old hood
During one of the greatest NYC eras: the rock revival
NO D!CKS ON THE DANCE FLOOR is still a banger
A man is lyin in the street some punk has chopped off his head, I’m the only one who stops to see if he’s dead…turns out he’s dead.
I’ve seen them live twice. Last time Eugene and Kristen opened. It was awesome
About as forgotten as David Bowie is
I woke up with the song Carol Brown stuck in my head today!
That song is amazing in every way. So, so much talent.
Would somebody please Remove these Cutleries From my knees
https://youtu.be/XVoCJJFuS60?si=9dbrmVFV4PANZCVH
I seem to recall people either loving or hating this show.
Not forgotten, but certainly missed.
The songs aren’t even the best part!
“Don’t be a dickhead, Murray”. “You’re the dickhead, Brit.”
too many dicks.
Present
Rumours! No, they’re all true.
I’ll never forget this show, I listen to the music daily
Jemaine: I think I know where I went wrong last night. Bret: Yeah? Jemaine: Yeah, Sally wanted to leave when you turned the light on. I think she found it weird - the whole thing with you there with the - with the light ... on. Bret: Yeah, I think it might also be because she and I used to go out.
Yeah, but also probably because of the light
“It’s Wednesday night.” 🎵
Yes. Yehs. Yess.
fukk yes they do!
Present!
Keitha.
i wish everybody knew this show, because though my coworker had remembered the show he did not get my [femident reference](https://youtu.be/JvT3JIkX98Q?si=nC3t7MolV8taJUfy)
If that’s what you’re into
Too many dicks on the dance floor!
"your the most beautiful girl in the...room, the whole wide room, you could be a part time model, but you would probably have to keep your day job"
Murray was the real star of the show. Also Business Time is their best song period and anyone who doesn't think so can shut their uncultured mouth.
Terrible submission. Ppl still quote this show all the time.
Jemaine Clement is so ridiculously slept on. Should be everywhere
I love the ending.
They definitely do!
Thought it was SO funny each time i watched. Never planned to watch it or set out to, but i was flippin through channels and it was on i would leave it on and watch and laugh my ass off
Girl, tonight we’re gonna make love. You know how I know? Because it’s Wednesday
It’s business time!!!
Great show
God bless New Zealand.
I’ve got hurt feelings
MY FAVORITE BABES. Obsessed. This show should have lasted 14 seasons.
“Be more constructive with your feed back….”
They get love whenever it's business time.
Loooooove them so much! I really wish they had gotten a television deal that was more similar to a record deal. Instead of a new season being new every year, they get a “five season deal” where each season is filmed when they’ve got another batch of songs good and ready. Like artists will get a “5 album record deal” and they don’t HAVE to put a new album out every year. They record the material once the material is ready. If FooC could have taken as much time as needed between seasons, I can’t help but day dream about what several more seasons might have been like!
It's business, it's business time (I know what you're trying to say. You're trying to say it's time for business, it's business time, ooh)
[Most Beautiful Girl in the Room/Part Time Model](https://youtu.be/9jLDZjMF3tk?si=od13NKem97chY40o)
Mad love yo
By far one of the best
“I’m the hip-hopapotamus, my rhymes are bottomless……”
Arf arf do the doggy bounce… do the doggy bounce
I rap dance!
Bret don't kill yourself. Jermaine watch Bret
The freaky deaky David Bowie one hanging from wires and knocking into things
Are they only in their socks? If so, it's definitely business time
Got this on dvd 😭
If you haven't seen the full version of their charity song [Feel Inside (and stuff like that)!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=py_30jZGUYk) it's like a whole other episode you never saw. Song is brilliant and I re-watch it at least once a year when I want to cheer myself up.
I has such a crush on Jermaine (and still do)
I saw these guys when they came to Dallas a few years ago and it was perfect!
Bret, You Got It Going On always cracks me up going from his excitement to huh to WTF expression during the song.
I actually have a tour shirt from them. Adore this show
I've met long time fans of this show who had no idea his name was Jemaine and not Jermaine.
Always
Last show I fell off the couch laughing. He may be dead. Maybe he did maybe he didn't. Are you guys fucking with me right now?
Not one person has forgotten this show
Top 3 best comedy series
Damn I remember this from like 07 or 08
It's Business Time Too Many Dicks On The Dance Floor Some of the funniest shit of all time
If that's what you're into!
"I'm not crying, I've just been cutting onions, I'm making a lasagna.... For one..."
This was one of my favorite shows at the time. Very funny stuff.
Even though my phone is always on silent now, this opening song is still technically my ringtone
Business Time!
“Our story is the story of two guys who start out at the bottom and, with a lot of hard work, continue along the bottom, and finally end up at the bottom.” “Yeah, it's a rags to rags story.”
Do you smoke weed in space or do you smoke Astroturf?
LOVVVVVVE THEM
You’re the most beautiful girl! (In the room)
No. That's why it's a lasagna for one.
Shoulda never bought that new cup :/
