The first 3 series of Monty pythons flying circus are the best, IMHO. They were fresh and funny ideas. Then the 4tg series started running out of ideas and series 5, John Cleese had left, and even tho they gave it a good go, and there may be one or two good sketches ("Michael Ellis '), it just wasn't the same as the earlier ones.

When Monty Python was first aired, it was considered so risqué that it came on well after my bedtime. However, every week I would sneak out of bed and perch myself at the top of the stairs where it was just possible to see the TV through the last gap in the bannisters. Even as a wee ankle-biter I knew this was something special.

I watched those sketches, as I did many others, on a Sunday night, about 10 years old when they were first shown. My oldest brother would come home from the pub late evening, creep upstairs, wake me up as I was already in bed, piggyback me down to watch the tv with him. He would fry some 'bubble n squeak' (Sunday dinner leftovers) and we would have a late supper in stitches watching Monty Python's Flying Circus. Heaven!

One of the classic sketches in the history of British comedy. It is quoted everywhere. Putting "ex-" in front of any noun has an instantly recognisable meaning. "Bereft of life", "joined the choir invisible" etc etc need no explanation in countries with the Union Jack on their flags. The Monty Python team turned humour around and headed into territory unknown up to that time. Glad you enjoyed it.

It's an interesting and quite a rare case of the Pythons changing something they had already written and recorded (and for the better, in this case). The original recording of the song, in the Flying Circus tv-series (1969) the line is "just like my dear mama", but every subsequent version has papa instead of mama, which is definitely funnier. This clip was from the movie And Now for Something Completely Different (1972).

I have to say that the live version, at the Hollywood Bowl, was my first introduction to Monty Python at age 8. I swear I nearly bruised a rib I was laughing so hard, and so I was hooked worse than a meth addict. I have to recommend you have a listen to that, or any of the live MP you can find, as it's like a great rock group - they just take it to the next level on stage. For instance, if you thought this studio version was a bit nutty, the live version is completely insane. Thanks for at great reaction :-) Oh, and I have to add: When we come out of this pandemic and they allow live studio audiences for sitcoms, you could get work as a professional laugher. I'm not making that up, they actually employ people to sit in those audiences to get the laughter going. Don't know how much they pay, but at the very least you could get lunch money out of it haha.

Theres really nothing like Monty Python. Its complete and utter silliness that will likely leave a scar on your funny bone for life! I still cant hear people call our the name Roger in public without going into a the skit. Or every time I see a leaf fall from a tree...so many skits, cant imagine my life without them.

This is from their first movie, "And Now for Something Completely Different," which is a reworking of some of their best sketches from the first season of "Monty Python's Flying Circus." They took their best sketches and filmed only the funniest bits, cutting them short where they started to lag in the TV show. The original parrot sketch goes on for a little longer, but the rest is not quite as funny as this part. Also it doesn't lead into the Lumberjack Song. which appears in a different episode.

The cheese shop and the argument sketches are 2 of my favorites along with the dead parrot. Life of Brian is a pretty funny movie. The Meaning of Life and Jabberwocky are also good. The Holy Grail is my favorite. Used to watch there tv show back in the 70's on PBS. The entire series is out on blu ray now. I got it on dvd years ago.

I used to watch Monty Python's when I was a kid back in the early 70's. It was on BBC2, (this was in the UK) - my mother hated it but I loved it. At school me and my mates used to pretend and act out the scenes.... Especially the "Silly Walk" and "Anyone for Tennis"?..... Also the "Albatros" scenes and "Lemmings".... Look for them. Thanks for taking me back to my youth! Ciao.
