Hey! That Looks Familiar!

In regards to my earlier post about visiting filming locations, my nephew Kevin got some great pictures recently while spending a few days in NYC. Those of you who are familiar with Flight of the Conchords might recognize these locations:



You may recognize this as the "New Zealand Consulate" where Murray and the guys have their band meetings. "Present!"




This is the stoop of the Bret and Jemaine's apartment in the show. It makes me laugh because I picture Mel lurking around waiting for them to come out... The great thing about this picture is the architectural details that you never pay attention to when watching the show.



A message from Bret and Jemaine:


J: "We just want to say that Kevin did an amazing job on those photos."
B: "Sorry we missed him while he was in New York, but we don't actually live there."
J: "Yeah, that's just for the show. Someone else must live there, but we don't actually know who that is"
B: "I think they might be of asian decent because of the sign on the building"
J: "Maybe we should introduce ourselves when we begin filming season two...bring them a biscuit or something because they are the real people living in our flat."
B: "But it's not our flat, it's fake...it's for the show"
J: "Right. That might be a nice idea though. A biscuit..."

B: "Oh, and the blog looks great Carol. We should go out sometime... if that's what your into."

J: "Yeah, the blog is really great and tell Beth and Rob we said 'Hello' and thanks for spreading the word about the Conchords! ...Bret, maybe we should bring Beth and Rob some biscuits..."

I would love it if Jemaine personally brought me a biscuit or two, then it would be business time!

I was surprised that Mel was not in the photo of the front door of their apartment. As she likes to say, "That's Bullsh*t!!"

There is a good chance that whoever lives in that flat is Asian, as it is located in a very Asian (and foul-smelling) section of New York.
