This is such a beautiful show. So witty, so deep, a cascade of creative settings and dialogues. The interactions between the characters feels fresh, like something not seen before, an inside jokeof sorts. If you are lucky enough not to have seen it, enjoy! Was thinking what else to say with my remaining lines without giving any spoilers away...the mighty boosh for me is about adventure and magic, and reminds me a lot of the cartoon show adventure time. It also has glimpses of flight of the conchords. Yet ultimately, there are some scenes that just stand in a class of their own. The episodes get progressively better and they all contain an original angle.

To fully appreciate the hilarious genius of this show, one needs to be fully on-board with the weird, magical journey that it will take you on. Join Vince Noir (Fielding) and Howard Moon (Barratt) on a psychedelic trip into the world of the Mighty Boosh. Meet characters such as Naboo the shaman (Fielding), Old Gregg and Bob Fossil (Fulcher) along with many, many others. Their adventures can take the viewer to other worlds, but often remain in whatever world the story is set, never quite made clear. Wonderful comedy, beautiful cinematography and costumes. Just needs an open mind to appreciate. And I must ask : Have you ever drunk Baileys from a shoe?

Why is it that so many comedies today are funny because some other trendy media has told them it's funny? The NME (a British magazine devoted to bands like Razorlight and the Kooks and other talentless bands) always has these arseholes on it's cover, and from watching it, I can see that the trendy one was the kind of douche who sat in his university refectory playing his guitar with a bunch of other bottom-feeders sat round him, and actually longs to be a musician, but, being a studenty tosser who is devoid of talent, decided to fall back on his "kooky" sense of humour. He's funny because he's trendy, not because he's funny, like for example, Vic and Bob, who these two are clearly trying to be the "next" of, minus actual humour. The other guy, with the 'tashe, I can assume likes offbeat and left-bank humour, and could possibly have potential if he wasn't in a band-wagon comedy. Someone said that they seem to spend more time trying to look cool than be funny and that is hitting the nail square on the head. But that's what the NME is all about, as long as it fits with their image of "cool", they are funny/a good band. The jokes/songs are secondary to looking cool.

This is just one of those shows...One of those shows that makes you say 'What the hell?!' through your laughter after each joke. And, maybe even after you each character is introduced. I've only seen the second and third series, but here's some examples: First up, the main characters--Howard Moon, 'jazz maverick' and Vince Noir, 'goth fairy', live with their friend Naboo, a shaman, and Naboo's familiar Bollo, who is a gorilla for some unspecified reason. The moon is a talking ball of shaving cream with an Eastern European accent, who talks about nothing and makes weird songs and poems. The DVD cover of series 2 states 'Sit back, relax, and open your Door of Cuckundoo, cos the Boosh is loose and coming at you like a shark with knees.'See what I mean? I don't know how Julian Barrat and Noel Fielding (who play Howard and Vince) come up with this stuff, but they are truly comic geniuses. I would recommend the Boosh to anyone who likes their humour a little...different.
