On the BBC website it says:
"The Mighty Boosh is unlike any show you are ever likely to see, and one that defies description. But here goes.
First brought to life by Julian Barratt and Noel Fielding in the upstairs room of a North London pub back in the late 1990s, Howard Moon and Vince Noir are best, if not sometimes brutally mismatched and unwilling, friends...
Comic fantasy, magical realism, surreal humour, whatever: vain jazzman Howard and '60s throwback Vince are fellow zoo-keepers who continually battled against the owner of the dilapidated Zoo-niverse, Dixon Bainbridge, and his manager Bob Fossil. If they are very lucky they are sometimes helped on their adventures by zoo kiosk worker and all-knowing enigmatic mystic, Naboo, and Bollo, the talking ape.
On their journeys they encounter a range of weird and unusual characters including the Parka people, some mod wolves, the ape of death who has a severe hair complex and a terrifying boxing kangaroo.
In series two, having broken out of the Zoo-Niverse and now living in a flat in Dalston, Howard and Vince are free to explore the globe in search of fame and fortune.
Series three finds the boys still in Dalston. But this time they're working in Naboo's second hand shop, which gives Howard the chance to try and sell his esoteric jazz records, and Vince the opportunity to try on some new wigs."
With most people, they either love it or don't get it/don't care for it. Each series is a little different, especially if you look at series 1 and then series 3. It's also a very different show from most others. In each episode there is some sort of song and maybe even a crimp or two. Here's an example of one of my favorite crimps from series 3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJf59zLzyfg). (They're talking about a bouncy castle.) Also, the two stars play most of the other (not regular) characters.
The best thing is to see it for yourself. Unfortunately, YouTube has taken down most clips/episodes of the show. But let's see what I can find...

I hope that helps, but I'm not sure that answers your question though - Feel free to ask more questions ^_^
