Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy (UK)
File Under: How did something this bizarre ever get made?
After an amazingly successful 10-year run as half of The Mighty Boosh, Noel Fielding's next project was Luxury Comedy, a showcase for his surreal, experimental brand of humor. This comedy takes many risks, and it certainly isn't afraid to fail. But when it works, it's mind-blowing.
My strong recommendation is to start with Series One, Episode Two: The Jelly Fox. Series one of Luxury Comedy is a psychedelic sketch show, while series two more of a surreal sitcom. When Luxury Comedy works, it blends the Noel's childlike surrealism, the amazing music of Kasabian's Sergio Pizzorno, and Noel's amazing art. All three hit their heights in this episode. The Jelly Fox skit, itself, is a wonderful peek at what goes on inside the the brain of Noel Fielding.
