I'm not sure if I have my favourite part yet, but I love the slash thing and how they stage whisper and from that moment I was just :#heart#: :#ded#: :#heart#: .

Yes! It's like one of the reviewers said It's the last FOTC episode we'll never get. I imagine this story was before they met Murray, like prequel. :#lol#:
The Simpsons creators must love the guys as much as we all do if they pretty much made entire episode revolving around them! I find it hilarious that they advertised the whole Glee appearance and they were only involved briefly.
How very Conchord! :#lol#:
Im wondering if the guys wrote their music themselves or if the creators had certain lyrics they wanted incorporated or something. It was very 'Conchordish' so Im assuming they wrote the music. :#excited2#:

when they said they wouldn'

t drop any more sandwiches, and when Kurt cried in the song.

I gave GIF making a try a few hours ago...Antonia and Elizabeth taught me how to make and resize a GIF
This one's from the flight scene before the credits
I know it lacks some layers but I had a rough time screencapping in sync with the movements

I was kind of thinking that the Glee people were going to take up most of the episode, but clearly I had nothing to worry about. :#lol#:mssaram wrote:I find it hilarious that they advertised the whole Glee appearance and they were only involved briefly.

Yay, thanks so much! :#thumbsup#:
Gosh, I absolutely loved how the episode packed full of FOTC references! :#love3#: :#love3#: :#love3#: Bret and Jemaine truly did an excellent job. :#cheer#: Loved the songs and dialogue! Too many brilliant moments to mention!
Pure perfection. :#cloud9#:

Thanks felty :#iheartu#:
I can't stop hitting repeat. Classic FOTC
I was trying to figure out if there was any hidden meaning of the address of Kurt and Ethan in Sprooklyn/Brooklyn 652 8th Avenue from the pic Sylwia posted
all I could find on Google maps was that its part of Saint Saviours High School, I wonder if that location was used somewhere during HBO's filming of the show? I guess I'm reading too much into it ....however, nearby at 611 8th avenue it's Park Explorers Summer Day Camp maybe one of the Simpson writer's old haunts

Thanks, guys! :#hug#:
I gotta admit, screencapping every movement on GIMP's really tough I've been looking for a Video to GIF software to make the GIF more movable from getting the complete layers. So far, I found a 30-day trial of Photoshop CS5 Extended but I don't know if it could run smoothly on Vista Home Basic

Finally a review with proper proportions :#lol#:
[url=source][/url][size=150:3m6zvbsk]Flight of the Conchords meet 'The Simpsons'
Obsessive fans of Flight of the Conchords — are there any other kind? — have had to settle for repeats of the musical folk duo's HBO show, since singers-songwriters-actors Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement pulled the plug on series TV after two short seasons.
But the Kiwi funnymen popped up on the season premiere of "
The Simpsons"
on Sunday night doing what they do best: rapping like hyper-literate white boys and living like starving artists in a hipster Springfield borough dubbed Sprooklyn. Nerd nation rejoice!
McKenzie and Clement, with deadpan humor and acoustic guitars at the ready, played counselors as Lisa Simpson lived a summer dream of singing, dancing and acting at a theater camp with fellow geeks or, gleeks, as it were.
Several members of the Fox hit musical, "
Glee,"
also made animated guest appearances on the 22nd-season launch. Cory Monteith, Lea Michele and Amber Riley showed Lisa the ropes at a camp called Expressions by bursting into song, much like they do in their own show. (Why was Riley's cartoon avatar so thin, by the way?)
U.S.-based fans might've caught a glimpse of Grammy winners Flight of the Conchords during live performances or comedy festivals around the country over the past year or so, but their HBO series of the same name lasted just 22 episodes. The musicians announced in late '09 that they wouldn't continue for a third season of the show, which also starred Rhys Darby and Kristen Schaal, in favor of touring, Internet projects and film work.
In an episode dubbed "
Elementary School Musical,"
McKenzie and Clement advise Lisa Simpson to follow her dramatic dreams. (They even got an assist from Stephen Hawking.) She ends up following the guys back to their sad little hovel and their jobs as sandwich artists where they kind of take back everything they said before. Springfield, Bart, Homer and the rest didn't look so bad after that, but Lisa hasn't given up the sax. Check out the clip to see that the guys haven't lost their ironic touch.
-- T.L. Stanley
Just as someone [url=tweeted][/url]:
that was really more of an animated episode of flight of the choncords than a simpsons episode with bret and jemaine.
I wonder what Internet projects they are talking about here? :#idea#:
