  1. Replace 'And Now for Something Completely Different' with 'The Meanign of Life' and you have a potential case. I've not seen much Flying Circus, but the popular sketches I've seen (Dead Parrot, etc) are funny, but I have to agree. Alot of times Flying Circus goes far out and I'm not out there with them.

     

    I've never managed to watch the whole of the Meaning of Life, maybe one day, what I saw I wasn't too keen on, on from what I hear, not many people were.

     

    For those that may not know, And Now For Something Completely Different aside from being a catchphrase was the name of the Python's first movie, a collection of sketches re-filmed for distribution in America, and I prefer its versions to their BBC counterparts in most every case, Python's on film had a chance to act with confidence, and what makes the difference between good comedy and great comedy is acting. With the TV show, shot in studio, for the most part all they could do was push relentlessly through the script before they ran out of breath or the audience lost interest.

  2. Python, without a doubt.

     

    Little Britain is a pile of shit, sorry, but it is.

     

    It's nothing on the League of Gentlemen, but I'll happily defend the first series, not the greatest comedy ever made, but before they got too hung up on their own catch phrases and scatological humour, they could produce something as brilliant as this:

     

     

    Now to really make you hate me, do you really think Monty Python's Flying Circus, the sketch show is really worthy? It had its

    , lots of them, but in my mind, geniuses that they were, it was experimental comedy, and was as much hit as miss. And Now for Something Completely Different, The Life of Brian and The Holy Grail are their legacy, but with Flying Circus, they were still finding their feet.
  3. Pacifist? Fuck a what now? I guarantee if Chewie came to harm Harry's family the mother fucker would beat him down tooth and claw. Can't anyone here support Earth for a change? Our best guy against Kashyyyk's. (I just looked up his home world on wikipedia, because be damned if I'm going to let Endor claim him, I demand to see Endor's strongest man go head to head with Earth's strongest bear.)

     

    Oh and Data would strip C3P0 down to parts before he'd even realise there was a fight on.

  4. My sister used to live there and I made the mistake of sleeping over one night and some a-hole started blasting music at 2 something...we called the cops. Fucking Milton...
