What Parents Need to Know
About Flight of the Conchords
Parents need to know that this musical comedy about a faux folk duo is pretty mild for HBO. The language is uncensored, but it's nowhere near the levels of shows like Deadwood and Six Feet Under. And while some scenes show social drinking and touch on drug use, and storylines typically revolve around dating attempts (most of which fail), there's probably nothing here that mature teens haven't seen or heard before. Song lyrics occasionally insult women, but they're more intended to poke fun at traditional pop music than to reveal any inherent misogyny.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the series' take on pop and folk music. Which aspects of each genre are being made fun of? What makes them good targets for comedy? Do the guys on the show remind you of any real bands? How does the fact that the stars are from New Zealand affect the show's humor? Do you think it would be as funny if it were about Americans?

Maybe
Okay. I'm just going to start off by saying...this is the best show on television. The funniest thing I've ever seen. But it might not be appropriate. Everything is a moderate offense, except for maybe language. Words like S**t, D**k, and A*s are used in moderation, with even an occasional F-Bomb. Since Flight of the Conchords is on HBO, there are no bleeps, so you hear the words. The swearing, although offensive, is used in moderation. The two main characters never use swear words, instead they use substitutes. For example, Bret says "Flip" when he's mad, a song starts off with Jemaine saying "I'm the motherflippin'...", and one song is called "Mother Uckers" with the repeated lyrics "Too many mother uckers ucking with my shi".

I laughed until I cried
Flight of the Conchords was humor beyond humor. Bret and Jemaine's individual personalities ricochet beautifully off each other, making it a hilarious television program. While it may not be appropriate for kids my age, (eh, my parents let it slide,) I think that if you watch it with your preteen and explain the subtle humor, it might even turn into a family comedy! I think this is a must-see for anyone over 13.
