TVNZ Sets the Record Straight?

NZ Herald's Article: Why the Conchords Really Took Flight

It sounds like TVNZ is trying to fend for itself in response to questions about why the Flight of the Conchords series never appeared on their NZ station first.

According to the article, budget constraints were the real reason why TVNZ didn't pick up the series. They make it sound like the network made an honest attempt to court Jemaine and Bret by making a 30-minute pilot. Now I'm curious to see this phantom pilot.

My two cents on the matter...

I’m glad it turned out the way it did or many of us might not even know about them. The article does raise one important fact...the show would never have been what it is now if TVNZ got ahold of it.

 

Flight of the Conchords Makes Emmys Shortlist

The Flight of the Conchords series has made the Emmys shortlist of finalists for an Emmy nomination. Mind you, they have not been nominated just yet. On the shortlist are 9 other shows vying for the Top 5 spots that will qualify them for an Emmy nomination.

Best of luck to Jemaine and Bret in obtaining such an auspicious nomination!

Happy Show Premiere Anniversary everyone! Just think...one year ago today Episode 1 of the Flight of the Conchords show aired on HBO. In celebration, I'd like to post this video a friend of mine made for Jemaine and Bret...

New Fan Art Posted

I had a few fan art submissions that were in safe keeping until I found some time to resize and post them. For a peak, check out the Fan Art page. They're awesome.

Radio NZ Interview Now Available Here

It's been brought to my attention that Jemaine's most recent Radio NZ interview gets cut off on the Radio NZ site, so I've decided to host an edited version here for your convenience:

I've Got the Post-Tour Blues

Jemaine Clement | Sasquatch Music Festival 2008

I tried my best to post an update about my Sasquatch trip in my blog last night, but as it turns out, Wordpress doesn't like when you embed files. Who knew? I had a nice slideshow that I wanted to share as part of my update too. That's another little kink I need to work out. I'm so backlogged, it's not even funny. Ah, well...

It's still an open call for tour pics if you want to share them along with your personal experience. Please drop me a line here: beautifulgirl@jemaineclementfanbase.com (I look forward to hearing your story, Genevieve *wink*). I'm suffering from major tour withdrawal and would love to hear from you.

I know I've been a bit slow in posting fan art and photo gallery images, but if you have your stories all ready for me to copy and paste, I can easily post them here without delays. You may also send along a link to your personal blog or LiveJournal site if you like -- granted, it must be related to the Conchords and/or the tour. :-)

Jemaine Clement Interview | Radio NZ | May 18th, 2008

Visit the link above and navigate down to the podcast dated May 18th. Jemaine's phone interview starts about 21 minutes into the podcast and lasts for about 10 minutes. If the link is expired, please let me know. I have the audio file and can upload it to this site if need be.

Thank you, Saffy, for sharing this with us.

New JCFB Blog Post

I've moved my Sasquatch write-up to a blog that I set up a bazillion years ago for this site. I honestly never thought to update my blog until now. I'll be posting a personal account of the festival as well as a few pictures once I get back from LA. I'm debating posting my Sasquatch videos because...well, I am singing in all of them! Gah. I never knew how obnoxious I was at concerts until I heard myself wailing away on my videos. Embarrasing.

Anyway, here's the link to my blog: JCFB Musings.

05/17/08 | Amoeba Gallery Up

Egads. This photo gallery project is taking way longer than I expected. Photoshop is not cooperating with me at all. However, I was able to wrestle with it enough to generate a photo gallery for the Amoeba instore.

Visit the Amoeba Photo Gallery Here. Have a safe and relaxing weekend everyone.

Also...

Photos are coming in by the minute and I'm still trying to get the new photo galleries set up. If you've got some photos you'd like to share, please email them to: beautifulgirl@jemaineclementfanbase. Where are my Milwaukee peeps? :-)

Thank you to everyone who has submitted photos. I'm slowly working on labeling the photos and organizing them by gig date. More to come soon.

5/08/08 | Coming Soon

I'll soon be posting photos from Jemaine's most recent tour stops to include fan photo submissions.
