I've spent so much time arguing with people on the fact that Life of Brian is so much better than Holy Grail that I forgot how brilliant the sketches from Monty Python's Flying Circus were. Here's a few of the best
dead parrot
this if I'm not mistaken was voted as the best british sketch ever or something like that
ministry of silly walks
buying a bed
this is another favourite that never gets the credits it deserves.
the society for putting things on top of other things
this ends up being too silly even for Python's standards!!
so -- anyone who appreciates their stuff on here?

Love the Pythons. I'm going to see Michael Palin at the Edinburgh Book Festival on Monday. Should be decent.

I prefer Holy Grail but those sketches are all amazing.

it's the stuff i grew up with, had such a great influence on what i found funny. a few years ago me and a mate went to see a showing of the life of brian at the electric cinema in birmingham - as a movie i watched loads and loved as a kid i was kind of expecting it to be funny but a little dated. what surprised me was how fresh and downright hilarious it still was. and how fucking brilliant michael palin was, well beyond the nicest guy of all time persona we kind of tar him with nowadays.

I just don't get what it is people see in Monty Python, i like 'Life Of Brian' but the sketches provided in the first post just aren't funny in the slightest.
Give me the Two Ronnies any day.

Talking of the Two Ronnies, is that Arkwright's shop in the 'Ministry Of Funny Walks' sketch?
