Flight of the Conchords
HBO is streaming the entire first episode of their upcoming show, Flight of Conchords, online. The show "follows the trials and tribulations of a two-man, New Zealand digi-folk band as they make their way in New York City." In other words, another inside baseball story of the type becoming so common these days; sometimes it seems like we no longer tell stories straight up, we tell stories about the making of those stories. A predictable consequence, perhaps, of YouTube's unprecedented access to the storytelling process. The creation myth metastasized.
