After two chart topping and hilarious seasons Kiwi group Flight of Conchords confirmed today they are not planning to make a third series of the programme.

A post on Flightoftheconchords.co.nz confirms that Bret McKenzie, Jermaine Clement and (co-creator) James Bobin were proud of the shows two previous series’, but that there are no plans to make a third.

The statement read : “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 third season,” the Flight Of The Conchords post says.

“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.”

“I don’t know if it’s officially dead, but I think it’d be more likely that we’d do a film or something like that,” McKenzie said.

Whilst we are saddened by this, we shall wait and see…..in the meantime relive the love with ‘Bowie’s In Space’:
