Flight of the Conchords Turn to Prostitution

HBO offered up a sneak peak of the new season of Flight of the Conchords at LA's Natural History Museum on Wednesday night, and one thing's certain, the Kiwi duo of Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement won't be nose-diving into a sophomore slump.

The first episode has been available for viewing at Funnyordie.com for a few weeks now, so let's jump into the second one. After Bret bankrupts the band by buying a cup for $2.49, the guys are forced to turn to prostitution to make ends meet. This venture, as usual, is less than successful. Along the way, their manager, Murray, falls victim to a Nigerian email scam, further depleting their funds and forcing them to perform shows armed only with air guitars.

The episode contains two seriously composed but entirely ludicrous songs. The first is a Timbaland-style production about how sexy Bret and Jemaine's dangling "sugar lumps" are, and the second is a reggae riff on 'Roxanne' with reaffirming lyrics like, "You don't have to be a prostitute/You can say no to being a man ho."

Well, that's easier said than done.

Flight's second run debuts this Sunday night, January 18th, on HBO.
