The greatest show in the history of television. hide show
Never before has a show been this fun, exciting and original. In a time where television is at an all-time low, with shows like "How I Met Your Mother" and "Sex and the City" gaining popularity and raping people's minds with their inane stupidity, it is amazing that there are still shows of this calibre being produced. Noel and Julian have so much raw comedic talent that they can really do anything they like with the show and it will still always be the same, brilliant Boosh. If you ever feel down over the tripe they air in America, let The Mighty Boosh restore your faith in television and remind you that the britons do it so much better.
If only shallow futuristic prostitutes, beady-eyed jazz loving men, and a giant gorilla could be found in the same show... hide show
The very moment this show appears on the screen it's pure amazing. You have two gorgeous British guys who are complete opposites. I've not seen every episode but I can comment on a few specifics.
Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt... sexual tension to say the least. I mean, I can't be the only one who hyperventilated and screamed when Vince and Howard kissed in the bouncy episode. Vince Noir, played by Fielding, is a shallow trend and music obsessed man with only one brain cell. He hates jazz but puts up with it for the sake of his buddy Howard. Howard Moon, played by Barratt, is an understated kind of funny and ends nearly every sentence in 'sir.' He wears ridiculous outfits, but not like flashy skanky Vince outfits. Mainly polyester meets tropical meets thrift store gone wrong. He's got beady little eyes and squints, kind of like he's boring into you sole. eels...
Anyway, the point is, this show is funny, the men are gorgeous, and the random interruptions from the moon make it thoroughly pleasant.
Don't see why I need a summary, but, whatever. Cute guys to drool over, crackfic for plot, what's not to like? hide show
So, I saw their bit on The Secret Policeman's Ball earlier this week and loved them. Subsequently looked them up online and watched through all three seasons in two days. They're just absolutely the most amazing thing I've seen on television.
Cute guys, huge amounts of homoerotic subtext. . .and maintext, come to think of it. Crackfic in terms of plot. I've got to love a show where if I quoted a fanfic to someone, they wouldn't know whether it was fic or canon. I can't even come up with words to describe how awesome this is.
It's been a very long time since I've actually seen comedy that made me lawl instead of just snicker or smirk. And this had me in stitches every couple of minutes.
And did I mention the cute boys?
"So cutting edge it goes out of date every three hours." - Vince Noir hide show
The Mighty Boosh is insane. Noel Fielding (Howard Moon) and Julian Barratt (Vince Noir) are two extroadinarily talented individuals, in fast paced script writing, lyric construction, and music composing (of every genre). The Mighty Boosh follows the day to day adventures of Vince Noir and Howard Moon, two over-the-top characters with opposing personalities. Each season has been set in a different location (season one in Bob Fossil's delapidated 'zooniverse'; season two sharing a flat in Dalston with Naboo and Bollo; and season three in Nabootique) and leads to ridiculous storylines and characters.
The Mighty Boosh is so over the top, so extremely hilarious, that is one of the freshest and most interesting television shows. If you posses a sense of humour, and you are not easily freaked out, the you will thoroughly enjoy the Mighty Boosh.
My first experience with the Mighty Boosh was their stage show after season 2, which was, in itself, brilliant. The boys of Boosh are hilarious, and they give a new meaning to english comedy. Coming from NZ, I am very proud of the Flight of the Conchords, but quite honestly, The Boosh does one better. Well thought of story lines which I like to call "reliable".
My only critique of Boosh is the character "Old Greg". He really annoyed me. The "Mangina" bit was not in the least bit funny. But overall the Boosh does kick ass! I love it, and can't wait for more!
