Funny Folk: 'Conchords' Co-Creator James Bobin

James Bobin is the co-creator, producer, and director of HBO's series Flight Of The Conchords. He has been nominated for eight Emmys since 2003 for his work on Conchords and Da Ali G Show.

Flight of the Conchords stars Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie, two New Zealand comedians who formed the folk-parody band Flight of the Concords. They play two hapless musicians trying to forge a successful career in New York City. The second season of Flight of the Chonchords began Jan. 18 on HBO.
