We are the mutant race!

"Goth Juice... the most powerful hairspray known to man. Made from the tears of Robert Smith."

So cats and kittens, in case you're one of those Americans who don't even give programming from other countries a chance (i.e. the legally blind, persons under age 11 and rednecks), allow me a few minutes to educate about this one gem of a show titled THE MIGHTY BOOSH.

Essentially, it covers the (mis)adventures of Howard Moon and Vince Noir, two misunderstood creative types who haven't one lick of sense between them. With friends like a pot-loving shaman (with his gorilla familiar), a magic carpet riding DJ, a pink head with tentacles that has a ridge not unlike a glans and rather disturbing man who constantly needs his fill of eels... 'hijinks ensue' is a phrase that would greatly understate every 28 minute episode.

Technically, the duo of Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding have been performing as the Boosh for over a decade now, but their award-winning show didn't premiere until '04 on BBC3. I don't know how to accurately describe this show without comparing it to other serials. Think Flight of the Conchords meets Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy meets Doctor Who meets The Venture Brothers meets No-Reaction Drama meets your last acid trip. Like that. Thanks to Adult Swim, the show finally has crossed over the pond! Sure, they're starting with Series 3 rather from the beginning, but newbies can get the jist of the characterization real quick.

Still not satisfied? Look up Mighty Boosh on you tube, ya doubting thomases!
