The thought of what Murray's face would look like if someone told him this...



It would be like "
courtyard of the king"
, only worse...

Such a classic Murray moment! His face turned so red it looked like he was going to explode.

In this ep, one of my favorite Murray moments was his reaction to Bret's favorite pastime - "
Well, we're not going to have a bath, Bret!"

His face and delivery of that line just kills me.

Although I'm a bit disappointed in Murray. I would never turn down a bath with Bret.

I really hope they were foreshadowing a scene that will appear in a future episode.

Well, he did say he'll be taking his shirt off...
The second of nip in Mel's dream ain't cuttin' it (delectable as it was).

As for Greg and his abuse from Murray;
it really goes with the Murray persona, Murray is clueless about so many things, he can't even pick the right person to be mad at. I think the Greg abuse is written in for just that irony. I wonder if there will be some kinda climax down the road between the two. It sure gives Doug some more presense, which is great. But Greg did get Murray back when he hung out w/the big bad Australians at the party.

Padump. Hard to follow that one. Though I've had plenty of similar moments. Too funny.

In this ep, doesn't Mel call Jem "
Jermaine"
? I think it's right when she rides up and gives em the cookies (I'm too lazy to leave the computer and go to the room w/the tv and ff thru my dvr right now to get the exact moment)

Did anyone mention the Tai Kwon Do (Doh? I have no idea how to spell it or if that's even what is was) studio is called "
Ameri-Kick"
haha

I'm a sucker for Tae Kwon Do jokes. For instance, in "
Napoleon Dynamite"
, at the Rex Kwon Do studio, the tenants of TKD are on the wall behind Rex, but any instance of the word "
Tae"
is replaced with "
Rex"
.

I was amused by the fact that Murray says "
do jo"
, which is Japanese, instead of "
do jang"
. It was a very Murray-like mistake.

catching up on some DVR'd episodes of flight of the conchords last night, i paused and rewound this scene more times than a skein of yarntini. turns out murray's hyper-curious friend jim is also a knitter. "
do you like blue?"
he asks the clueless bret in this scene as jemaine mopes in the background, "
he's a dick."
hey big J, at least he's a non-australian, lace-knitting dick. and, am i crazy, or is jim making bret a birch[/url:akz8o8dj]?

What's with all the Australian bashing?? It's just a show 'uckers.

ADD: I would love Jim to make me a birch, and yes i do like blue

The ending scene, a NYC skyline, is the one actually used in Friends. At least that's what my hubby thinks, he delt w/the show back in the day.

OK, I think I'm ultra super late noticing this, but I don't think anyone else has mentioned it. I was watching this ep with my besties tonight, and I noticed near the end that during one of the transitions in which they showed the Friends-style NYC skyline, they also played the little 4 note guitar-strum transition music from Friends. It's hard to explain! Does anyone know what I'm talking about? " title="" border="0"/>

At 23:40? After they say goodnight to Murray and Jim in the elevator?

At the very end, just before they role credits (too lazy to check the timing, may do that later)

Another outtake/still shot.

so i thought this would belong in this thread...


my brother went to a game at yankees stadium today, he's still there, and he just called me to tell me he met someone from flight of the conchords but couldn't remember his name. so he says the 'friends' episode and of course i immediately think of jim and he was like YEAH!! THATS IT! he is there with his son or something. he went up to him and said something about how he just saw that episode and jim was like 'yup that was me' or something and yeah. he said he's gonna try to get a pic of him, he's only sitting four rows in front of him. my bro said he was really cool.

ok thats all i got

maile! that's fricken' awesome! can't wait to see a pic!
