The Argument Clinic.

 

[Japanrocks12]

well, my favorite Monty Python things aren't from the Flying Circus, therefore I vote the last option

Australian society

I know I know, there are only twenty-five poll slots. I wanted to put the Philosopher's Football Match on there, too.

I liked the four Yorkshiremen a lot,

I would have to re-watch the entire series to form an informed opinion.. but...

I'll always remember this one, for some reason:

Climbing the North Face of the Uxbridge Road

 

[Mr. Dictator]

dennis moore. easily.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

I forgot the World Championships of Hide and Seek!

 

[EconomistBR]

The best one is the Bloody Peasant from the Holy Grail movie. IMO it's brilliant, a lesson on democracy.

Bloody Peasant

"Listen, stange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government"

"You can't expect to yield supreme executive power, just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!"

I FORGOT THE GREATEST SKETCH OF ALL:

FRENCH SHEEP LECTURE.

I am forever shamed...

 

[LightFang]

On a related note, what's that scene with the economist? I'm pretty sure it was from Monty Python. Something about making fun of rational self-interest.

 

[warpus]

Hey, I forgot about Arthur Two Sheds Jackson

 

[EconomistBR]

Skit from the movie
Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

This is a thread for only scenes from the show. The movies are a whole different ballpark, and they can't really compete with eachother.

Well, you said Monty Phyton....so I am linking to Monty Phyton.
You shouldn't be complaining because I am enriching the thread and I am not spamming.

I said "Monty Python's Flying Circus" in the OP.

I never said the movies were bad, I said I didn't want to compare the two here, because everyone 1) everyone is going to pick the movies and 2) because I can't name every scene from every Monty Python movie in the poll.

Simply, if you want to discuss the movies, open another thread. This one is for the BBC show.

Fine...I don't why you have to be so hard line about it, so I'll get out.
