Flight Of The Conchords May Not Return

TV Series - Wednesday November 4, 2009



Jemaine warns there may not be a third season of Flight of the Conchords



Source: THR.com



Jemaine Clement has warned that comedy genius Flight of the Conchords may not return for a third season due to the unmanageable work load the show entails.

The cult hit starring the two New Zealanders Jemaine and co-creator Bret McKenzie living in NYC and trying to make it big with their "folk band", gained over 3 million viewers during its second season on HBO and was nominated for an Emmy this year, not to mention a Grammy win for lyrical amazingness The Distant Future.

Jemaine, who was nominated for the Best Comedy Actor Emmy, is currently in Jared Hess's Gentlemen Broncos has dubbed the potential curtain call "bittersweet" as the show is "so hard" to produce.

The end of the Conchords would be the sad departure of a true original bash at offbeat comedy - but then again, they would be ending on a high (as with all the best TV comedies) and will leave us begging for one-off Christmas specials.
