Viva Laughlin may have given musical TV a bad name, but this transcendently silly slacker comedy more than makes up for it. Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie send up everything from David Bowie to French film to their own beloved homeland as "New Zealand's fourth most popular folk parody duo" scratch out an existence in New York and belt out instant classics about racist dragons and killer robots, plus the most killer (and only) binary solo you've ever heard.
