Monty Python: Where Are They Now? kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWG1oWt5l7-Morc

[@badfairy9554]

You forgot Siding Doors.

[@RespectTheLogos3]

There’s a Monty Python reference in the video game Worms. The Holy Hand Grenade

[@gonoroad2160]

Theres also a game thats full of references and based its art style on it, called rock of ages

[@Jasuuvius]

Also in Fallout New Vegas if you have the Wild Wasteland trait

[@SolCresta3405]

Mondor from Revolution X saying “I’ve had worse” and “It’s only a flesh wound” when you blow his limbs off.

[@Eddiedahomeless]

The classic quick tribute in The Young Ones when Alexi Sayle does a silly walk into a shop and asks Rick Mayall “Is this a cheese shop?” “No it isn’t” “Well that’s this sketch knackered!”

[@lintonkenneally7954]

I once sang Bright Side of Life for a school concert

[@sarahkinsey5434]

I had it stuck in my head for the whole ACT test

[@victorhernandez8723]

Games of Thrones is the last thing I would expect to have any Monty Python references.

[@gingaddict]

yeah, what the hell???

[@jenfarmer2063]

What about all the references in HORRIBLE HISTORIES! The show is basically a massive Python tribute 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@alyrx6270]

exactly!!!

[@keatonburton5636]

There's another one from Game of Thrones that you missed: when Daenerys introduces herself to another Khal in Season 6, he and one of his warriors list off the good things in life. Also, in one of the OVAs for the anime Girls und Panzer, the freshman Rabbit Team makes a direct reference to the Spam sketch, with the team captain Azusa Sawa standing in for the waittress yelling, "Shut up!" at the Vikings in the diner.

[@ladycplum]

I remember my brothers an I almost offing ourselves laughing at the Fish Guy in that Family Guy episode.

[@TheAidenator2001]

Family guy is an ageless cheese!

[@naoisehopkins_02]

Only during its first 7 seasons

[@fishrgirl5980]

I agree, I look forward to 1am. one of the best cartoons that I try to never miss.

[@DynamixWarePro]

While not a TV or movie reference, there is the game, "The Adventures of Ninja Nanny & Sherrloch Sheltie: No. 11 Downing Street" which came out in 1993. It is Monty Python-ish in its strange style and artwork.

[@Fools_Requiem]

An anime called Girls Und Panzer has a scene that references the SPAM skit. Because copyright rules are weird in Japan, they censor the first letter of SPAM every time it's said, so it sounds like "[BLEEP]PAM [BLEEP]PAM [BLEEP]PAM [BLEEP]PAM" They even cut away to the girls wearing the Viking outfits while they sat at a similarly designed set as used in the skit and included the random exterior shot of the viking ship rowing on rough seas. Oishi [BLEEP]PAM!

[@CaptainCretaceous91]

7:14 is my first and still my favorite Monty Python reference

[@just_kos99]

On "House, MD", House and Wilson are talking and Wilson says how he didn't come there for an argument, and House says, That's room 12A.

[@Firepuma27]

The famous giant foot was referenced in the Arthur episode Francine goes to war as she's flipping through channels

[@michaelwalton7776]

No Lumberjack song?😳

[@cillian2971]

What about that Christmas episode of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, It showed Mandy getting crushed by the Monty Python foot.

[@maglekaer1]

Even "Cow & Chicken" has done it and probably others of Cartoon Network's classic shows

[@filmgeek520]

Very niche but VeggieTales basically built its brand of humour on Monty Python XD

[@victorhernandez8723]

“Josh and the Big Wall” is a prime example.

[@omegajrz1269]

Shrek 3 has a Monty Python reference. And Eric Idle, who is the voice of Merlin, realized this and almost left the premiere angry

[@tomfriel2728]

Bro Town did a good tribute

[@mjkhan9664]

One reference i remember was from the american cartoon Jimmy Neutron where there was a cave seen with a seemingly cute animal, but wasnt

[@williampulfer-melville8536]

1 Monty Python reference was actually in the British Canadian animated series Blazing Dragons which was pretty much a parody of Monty Python's the Holy Grail as the show was created by Monty Python's Terry Jones

[@victorhernandez8723]

I’ve been watching some episodes of that cartoon and I like it. Thanks for bringing it up. I would never have known that a cartoon show co-created by the late Terry Jones existed.

[@williampulfer-melville8536]

Another Monty Python reference was actually the title of a episode of the British children's series Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids the episode Monty's Python

[@mikitz]

The entire Fallout series is rife with Python references. Hope the TV series will nod to them as well, with a similar frequency.

[@Pikashockdragon]

So no Monty Python References in Video Games? Edit: If I knew they sprinkled in Monty Python Easter Eggs in GoT I would've got into it. :P

[@Petskiiii]

NI!

[@just_kos99]

Waitaminnit, girls aren't supposed to like MPFC? Yeah, we're not supposed to like the Three Stooges, either. They're all awesome.

[@Matt78778]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@gamleskalle1]

BURMA!

[@enyaskoromnova5487]

Meanless with his words perhaps only needs peers to back him up he or she up

[@rindou97]

No Girls und Panzer SPAM reference. Bad top.
