Flight of the Conchords First Episode

This is a new HBO show, and I wasn't really sure what it was about, but the commercials were funny, so I decided to check it out. As usual with HBO shows, it's awesome. I can see how some may not like it, but I think it's really funny. Here's the synopsis from HBO:

Flight of the Conchords follows the trials and tribulations of a two man, digi-folk band from New Zealand as they try to make a name for themselves in their adopted home of New York City. The band is made up of Bret McKenzie on guitar and vocals, and Jemaine Clement on guitar and vocals.
So the show is based around a music duo, and throughout the episode, they sing some of their songs. On HBO they have a forum for fans' favorite lyrics, and in that vein, my favorite lyric of this episode comes in the first song: "When you're on the street, depending on the street, I bet you're definitely in the top 3 good looking girls on the street, depending on the street."

If you have 28 minutes, I think it's really worth checking out. Go to hbo.com/conchords/ to see the whole first episode. For a preview of what it will be like, here's a clip of the song that my favorite lyric is in:
