About this show

If you like your comedy on the crazy side, sit back and suspend your disbelief, as vain jazzman Howard Moon and 1960s throwback Vince Noir take your mind on a journey through time and space. In this bizarre and hilarious comedy adventure, our two heroes travel from the Zooniverse to the Arctic Tundra, get kidnapped by the mythical Yeti, battle the merman of the Black Lake, and unite to defeat a band of copycats - the wholly unoriginal Flighty Zeus! With reality-stretching plots, musical interludes and animated sequences, The Mighty Boosh takes the British tradition of surreal comic shenanigans to an entirely new level.

Seasons 2 and 3 are far more accessible, but season 1 still has some gems and really starts to warm up toward the end

Don't let this hilarious British comedy fly under your radar. With gender bending, quirk and a dash of Tim Burton it is simply unique. Should appeal to fans of music and Noel Fielding.
