The music videos in particular were probably 2 of the best they’ve ever done.
Gondry directed? No wonder this was my favorite episode yet. Loved every minute of it, but particularly Jemaine’s girlfriend song. The lyrics plus visuals were just amazing.

In this past ep, the ongoing back and forth of Bret saying “She may have subtly mocked Jemaine’s accent” and Jemaine repeating “She may have mocked my accent subtly” just got me every time.

Never a truer word spoken, too.
If anything, between this and ‘The Tough Bretts’, the show has done more to educate the world that NZ is NOT a part of Australia than . . . well . . . uh . . . anything, really.
That was a pretty damned good episode too. Bret trying to be Jemaine and Jemaine trying to be Bret ("yeah sometimes I glue it on, when I’m in a hurry" was gold. These last two have been leagues better than the rest of the season.
I’m a little behind, and only watched “Unnatural Love” last night…but what a killer episode! For some reason, Murray opining the fate of Jemaine and Keitha’s children being forced to “move from city to city, searching for the perfect wave” completely slayed me.
I didn’t think this episode was great, but I liked Wiig. It just seemed that they tweaked the characters too much or something. Maybe I’ll dig more on the re-watch.
