My overall rating of "Flight of the Conchords"'s Season 2: 5/10
Is this episode bad because of bad songs? No, not really, they're fairly standard, and Murray's one is quite impressive vocally. Is it because of unfunny jokes? Yes. Because of illogical plotlines (Seriously, since when a rich, Western musician would have a problem fending off or settling a lawsuit from a former-Eastern-bloc act? J-Lo and Pitbull were never even bothered about stealing from Edward Maya or the original Azerbaijani author for one of their tunes. And there's no in-universe way "Crazy Dogggz" could've plagiarised the clip and the song both, as the bongo guy had the song before he met the "keytar" guy)? Yes, also. Because of a weaksauce reversion to the mean when bravely changing the status quo probably would've improved the story (by creating a "FotC"-"Crazy Dogggz" rivalry; having Murray deal with newfound appreciation and money etc)? Mainly because of that actually, yes. Yes. Right then.
