Not exactly new, but seems to have quite a cult following around Europe. The Mighty Boosh is a UK comedy show, which is as weird as it is funny. Anyone with 20 minutes to spare could be amused by these clips ... The Legend of Old Gregg ...
The Crack Fox ...
 GENIUS !!!

I don't know if it's his accent, or disjointed choice of subject matter, but I can't listen to him without a big, stupid grin on my face .
"The Crack Fox" is just as funny though.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Houston, TX | | | Yeah because (dangit i forgot his name... the short brown haired one.) Loves his jazz funk fusion. With multiple slap bass references and references to mark king. Great show... too bad its hard to watch on t.v. here in america and i don't think they have any DVD's out... anyone know in UK if the fourth season is finished (they skipped the 3rd season because they want l8er generation to go on a search for the "lost season".)

I love the song right at the end after they've defeated beatmax when in search of the 'new sound'. |

The Nightmare of Milky Joe, now that is a good episode.
Also if you haven't already you should check out Garth Merenghi's Dark Place.
