Discuss the great-ness that is Monty Python!
Go go go!
It's hard to discuss :p What can you say? Monty Python is one of the greatest comedic acts in history, and has basically influenced directly or indirectly everything done since in the entire realm of comedy.
YouTube - Fish License <- Love this sketch. "And the late, great Marcel Proust... 'AD AN 'ADDOCK!"
Funny, I was just watching a bunch of Python sketches. :greenie:
Yep, classic stuff. Obviously the films get a lot of praise, and Holy Grail is one of the funniest things I've ever seen, but the TV show has a lot of great sketches that are sometimes forgotten. The Communist Quiz, Upper Class Twit of the Year, Self Defence Against Fruit...I don't think any other sketch comedy has come close since.
SPAMMITY SPAM WONDERFUL SPAM!
The show is good but sometimes a bit indulgent. The best stuff on it is gold though. I preferred the films which were all very funny, though Holy Grail could have done with a proper ending XD - but Life of Brian is one of the best comedies ever, it's pitched perfectly and and is more relevant today than ever.
the best.
no new comedy shows come close.
the cheese shop sketch is a wonder, and the fish slapping dance :D
I was in the room while my brother was watching the Holy Grail movie. I've never really watched it.
I did find the part where the French didn't know French humorous, as well as when they were reading the rules for counting to three. :bounce:
Love the movies. Never seen much of Flying Circus.
Oh wow, I haven't seen Monty Python in years.
Here are some of the ones that I remembered I liked, though.
Dirty Hungarian Phrasebook
I never really got into Flying Circus. I liked the Holy Grail a lot more.
She's a witch!~
And the Lord did grin...
Oh oh, now we see the violence inherent in the system!
"Number two: The larch."
Yeah, Monty Python rules. The Ministry of Silly Walks, the Tobacconist (Hungarian Phrasebook), and the Dirty Fork are some of my favorites.
The only thing I can think of that comes close to Python is The Two Ronnies.Quote:
