is a TV show that also does live stage shows. I saw their second one last night and it was awesome.
I'm prepared to accept that I'm probably the only person in the group who likes the Boosh, (it seems to be the case most of the time) so I won't bother going over some of the more hilarious jokes in the show.
However, you may be aware of the Boosh and their crimps AND that the Honey Monster stole the concept for an advert last year. Seeing them tear that hairy yellow bastard apart was one of the highlights of my evening.

The Mighty Boosh is ridiculously amazing!
"Future Sailors!" Man, I love the episode with that.

My own affection for it has been sidelined for my brother. Who loves it and for whom I have brought every series over the years, and he's going to see the show tonight, courtesy of moi. I wanna watch it though. Since even though I bought him all the series, he won't let me watch them.

I'm going to be a ridiculous indie-snob and say I liked them before they became famous. But this is simply because they don't have that much material rather than gawd how dare people like my stuff. Their live shows are rehashes of old jokes and the same every time, improv is actually scripted and their last season was lacking. I'm saying this as someone who has seen every episode and their live show.
Now as far as tv comedies with silly songs go I have to say I prefer Flight of the Conchords. Especially after I watched one of their live gigs. Same songs as the series but they threw in new jokes. And they're cuter.

"I'm Old Gregg! I got a mangina!"
Loved Mighty Boosh, although it took me a couple of episodes to get into. Before that I was just like "...okaaaaaaaaay, back away slowly..."
Ain't seen the most recent series though.

Everyone I meet nowadays seems to be obsessed with Flight of the Conchords.

I still ain't seen Flight of the Conchords, although I've also heard about it from quite a few folk.
And hile, Gunslinger! Ale would be greatly appreciated, and shall be repaid by the next round, for my travels have left me with a truly terrible thirst! Innkeep, a round for the house, for I would share this camaraderie with all!
...except the guy in the corner with the weird eyes. He worries me.

If I fail my exams because that tune is stuck in my head, I'm blaming you!

Vinny takes no blame for inflicting virally catching tunes upon you. Mwahahaha!
