This is the Monty Python thread for NationStates! Talk about anything to with the Pythons, or you can talk about solo works by Pythons, such as:

Fawlty Towers
Around The World In 80 Days
The Rutles
What Is To Be Done?
The 110th American Congress
The President's Bed-In

Nudge Nudge! Know what I mean?

All the Michael Palin travel things are pretty damned awesome.

Although the stuff done by each of them separately is good and all, I still feel the best was with the group. The Holy Grail and Life of Brian are masterpieces.

I wasn't a big fan of Holy Grail, but I adore Life of Brian.

Monty Python is the king of all comedy. Simple as. No Arguments. Anyone who argues is to be rounded up and shot* (Joke)


*After several attempts and eventually realizing we were looking down the wrong part.

About the poll: I'm not attending any school, and there's no one to talk to at my work (I work from my own home), so it would be pretty silly to utter any Monty Python line at all, now wouldn't it? :D

Fair enough, do you have any comics on those that laugh and repeat quotes from Fawlty Towers?

If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me? I am no longer infected.

Drop your panties, Sir William; I cannot wait 'til lunchtime.

My nipples explode with delight.


Should I be ashamed or proud to announce that I went to the very last night of the London production of Spamalot?

Monty Python certainly invented classic material, though it is absurdly over-quoted by those who enjoy it.

I think it works really well as a satire and I find Holy Grail a bit too random.

But then I find myself indifferent to the few bits of the Flying Circus that I have watched.

Life of Brian's funny, but Holy Grail's a lolfest.

I picked the first one, but really, I often used the line "Your Mother was a Hampster! and your Father smelled of Elderberry!"

Or me and one of my friends would do the Swallow bit, lol...

She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brother-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passion", "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink"...
