Love NZ folk, I am Australian - I want to move there eventually - so amazingly peaceful and lovely. Also - if you do no like FOTC, do not fucking watch it! Simple.
Its unfortunate we Americans don't know much about New Zealand but we do know that it's a lovely country. And no, we don't hate Britain or New Zealand. That's utter nonsense within the show for the sake of humor. Without Britain, there would be no America.
sorry to reply to a 5 month old comment, but yeah it probably is him...i know he directed one or two episodes and you're right it looks a lot like him, probably is him.
Haha NZ is awesome and no the Americans don't know a lot about our country I mean wth we have to study about American history in our schools! NZ made up some decent things too you know and we don't get acknowledged for it.
Yeah, it's true Americans don't know a lot about NZ.
I'm Kiwi and I met some Americans and told them that flocks of sheep roam through our cities and terrorise the inhabitants and the Govt. sponsors anti-sheep patrol groups that protect the toruists.
I hated it when my American friend used to lecture me on how to spell correctly. "It's 'spelled' not 'spelt', 'color' not 'colour' and 'center' not 'centre'." I told him that 'spelt' is acceptable but the idiot didn't believe me......oh well
lol, im scottish and im sorry but anyone who gets a new zealander and a scottish accent confused should be sent off to live around the world until they know how to recognise the basic accents of the english language :P
I as a Canadian have realized that the Kiwi-Aussie conflict (if you will) is not much different between the US-Canada conflict. I say this because both Canada and NZ deal with confusion of identity by foreigners as well as the 'animosity' between the two peoples. Furthermore, Canadians like Kiwis, reject the culture of the other (US/Aussie). US dominates sports except Hockey, Aus. dominates sports except Rugby...go All Blacks! We have our own 'culture' but many assume we're the same people!
Canada vs. US is nothing like Aus. vs. NZ. For starters, we dont actually try to make them accept our culture, we just like taking the piss out of them, and they like to do it back. I am australian and I think its great, some of the things the kiwis say about aus is hilarious. We love the kiwis, and I hope they feel the same. btw Wallabies are way better than the kiwis, check your facts bro.
Though most of us (im Canadian as well) dont even get mad, they say oh you are from USA? im like No Canada - Not a big deal to me, not sure about down there though. Canada + New Zeland = Caniwi ....its pretty much the best thing ever.
FOTC Rule!!!! I'm a Kiwi and I love our Aussie neighbors.. we have had this friendly feud for as long as I can remember.. I hope Aussies who watch this wont take too much offense.. we like to take the piss out of them and vice versa. Its all in good fun
Visiting the Philippines I met an Aussie at the beach who spoke non stop for 5-6 minutes. Couldn't understand a word except "gidday". Same with the Aussies in this clip. I can understand the NZers, however.
In Australia, they have just recently relaxed the TV Local content rules. We now get a lot more New Zealand Shows, and this by far is the BEST ever to come across to our shores. Yea they hang shit on Aussies, but on them selves as well. As Aussies and Kiwis we can take it. We have died side by sides in past wars. We are best Mates and we look after each other.
I love this show! And I love the kiwi vs aussie running joke on FOTC. I used to live in Aust. and the friendly rivalry was always a source of amusement. Thanks for compiling, I really enjoyed it. :-)
dont worry FC. you will always get morons in every sample of people. theres not much you can do. block it if you have to, so the rest of us- who do "get it", dont have to read the ramblings of the mentally challenged.
hey fuck u cunt bag asshole say dat 2 an aussielike me 2 my face u assholefuckmunch u must be a fucken leb cos u cant just say dat bout peeps dat dont do shit 2 u wat did aussies do
im not even answering him. im just making comment on the nz/aussie thing. the comment- dumb kiwi is an example of that..for those who are reading..not specifically for neo. i cant believe i had to explain this..i assumed that the conversation was with mature adults. my mistake...oh and ps, i dont view ppl's profiles...anyone can use someone else's profile to sign in. my profile isnt me.
If you watch the episode you will see that the fruit dude has kiwis mixed up with aussies. Do a search for "flight of the conchords racism" on youtube.
you are ALL missing the point completely. FoTC are on many levels of humour- subtle and deliberate. This is an example of why they are popular as its quirky, subtle and satirical. The joke isnt on NZ or Aussies- directly (it is indirectly as can be seen by the responders to this clip)- its a cross sectional view at national pride and racisn in the US primarily..in this case a US minority lashing out at an even more minor group...its not the lashing thats the funny bit...
No ----- the idea of New Zealanders or the Brits for that matter being hated in the U.S. is just nonsense and humorous (humourous). The "oppressors" ----- I'd say in truth, if you came here, people would be fascinated with your accent but might mislabel you --but with no animosity. They would probably be as familiar with your country as you would be with one of our states.
Yeah. Lol, we americans really arent rascist against british or new zealanders at all. That is why it is a joke. They wouldn't kid around about it if it was real rascism.
i love these guys wish they would come back to the UK!!!!!! i've not seen all of these episodes as they don't show them on English telly,but i will hunt them down on the net!!
