[CinemaBrony 1,276]

I'd love to know if there anypony else here who's a huge fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus, and what out favorite Python sketches are.

 

Here's my personal top ten favorite sketches from the show:

 

01. Travel Agent

 

02. Flying Lesson

 

03. Argument Clinic (I've actually performed this one with a friend at a Coffee House show in high school)

04. Homicidal Barber / Lumberjack Song

05. Sam Peckinpah's Salad Days

06. Dirty Hungarian Phrasebook

07. The Killer Cars

08. Self Defense Against Fresh Fruit

09. Nudge Nudge

10. Undertaker's Sketch

Yes more Monty Python fans!

 

It's so hard to choose from such a great selection of sketches, I have Flying Circus on VHS and I'll still break out the player just to watch it.

 

I'd probably go for the Parrot sketch, Nobody Expects the Spanish Inquisition, Ministry of Silly Walks and How not to be Seen.

The Lumberjack will always hold a special place in my comedy parts, as it was the first Python sketch I ever saw.  That and the Spam sketch.

Although, now that I look over your list, I think the Argument sketch might be one of my favorites.  It's just so perfect.

I have to go with a complete classic. The Dead Parrot sketch always makes me laugh. There's also the "Crunchy Frog" candy sketch too.

It seems like everybody is supposed to love Monty Python...but most of the sketches I've seen don't click with me. Some of them, especially the longer ones, just seem to drift without a real ending or a point. But I like some parts of the Holy Grail and, most of all, this version of Wink Wink Nudge Nudge. It was hilarious and ended before the subject got old.

Wow. Just wow. Monty Python? This forum rocks.

 

If I had to pick my favorite, it would probably be "The Dead Parrot Sketch", I can quote that one word for word. XD 

The "Ministry of Silly Walks" comes a close second to that one.

My favorites are how not to hide, and the scene from Life of Brian where he is trying to tell the people to leave him alone.

 

Brian: Just go away and leave me alone!!

 

Follower: How do you want us to go a way?

 

Brian: I don't care, Buck off!

 

Follower: (Pause) How do you want us to buck off?
