Would you say this guy is funnier than the Flight of the Conchords?

Hey Teddy,

Flight of the Conchords is funnier, but it is a different kind of humour. In any case both are great!

Yeah mate.

He's a classic. I tell you what - I'll check out your guy if you check out Carl.

@ Teddy P

I think the Conchords have it, because many Americans "get it". I don't as many people will understand Billy T as he is a classic Kiwi comedian.

Here's a great Conchords Video - Very clever wordplay from the boys! Love the "my lyrics are bottomless...... (insert long silence here)

  Does it involve sheep?
  
  If it does, then the kiwis would definitely not think it was funny.
  
  Do not come between a kiwi and his sheep; and this could lead to so many other lines but I will leave it .
  
  Thanks

  This is the best skit that billy t ever did. Short and simple. I can still remember being a little boy and laughing my ass off when I saw this skit for the first time.

The Kiwis do have a certain dead pan charm that is fun to watch

Wicked! There will never be another Billy T James and it's great how funny his material still is to many of us. Right now we could do with a few more laughs.

Thanks for bringing back the memories. I love Billy T but have to admit to being a big Mike King fan:

Not for those who dislike bad language.
