Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie (aka "The Flight Of The Conchords") have announced the end of their popular HBO musical sitcom:
"... we've noticed the less we say about the future of the show, the more people want to talk about it, so in an effort to reverse this trend we are today announcing that we won’t be returning for a 3rd season. We're very proud of the two seasons we made and we like the way the show ended. We'd like to thank everyone who helped make the show and also everyone who watched it. While the characters Bret and Jemaine will no longer be around, the real Bret and Jemaine will continue to exist." SourceIn many ways it's a shame. I was critical of season 1 because of its repetitive plotting (buoyed by some good songs), but season 2 was much funnier (if musically inferior). I'd still rate it as one of the best comedies coming out of the US these days, though. But the show did end on a definitive note, and I doubt the quality would have remained as strong as it did for another year.
