ok that's a bit harshbut, they are not worth the excessive hype that surrounds them.
nor are flight of the conchords whilst we're on it. both are fairly amusing, but are nothing new, and are massively over-rated (almost to Gervais/Little Britain proportions, except of course that Little Britain isn't amusing in any way)
I also find it amusing that my brother's got an old flyer from his SU (about 8 years+ old) with Noel Fielding appearing as one of the comics

they are over-hypedover here and in the states anyway.
and i don't think they've ever claimed to be new or clever. read an interview with them in Q a couple of months ago and they came across really well. not total cunts
same can't be said of the boosh who are suing Quaker beacause of the way the honey monster talks in one of the ads.
there's no way they can lay claim to that, nor any reason why they'd want to

the only people who aren't over-rated are people we've never heard of.everyone else is shit and might have been better a long time ago, but then they sold out, man.
