I like circuses and I like flying. If only we could combine the two.

Holy shit look at this damn thing
Look at it!
"WARNING: TOXIC JOCULARITY ENCLOSED. Inside this decorative carton lurk four seasons of Monty Python's Flying Circus, two NEW-to-DVD documentaries, two Monty Python LIVE performances, and six "Personal Best" compilations. The whole great mess - Spam tins, parrot carcasses, blancmanges, and all - has been safely digitized, compressed into microscopic "funny bits," pressed onto 21 shiny discs, and sealed within this whimsy-proof receptacle.
SO DON'T OPEN IT! All right, if you must. But beware: there's new material you can't repeat verbatim (yet). "Before the Flying Circus" employs rare vintage footage to explore the influences that shaped six young lunatics into the world's most innovative comedy troupe, while "Monty Python Conquers America" documents their tremendous, yet astonishingly unlikely, American success. The six "Personal Best" collections present the best sketches and songs, as selected, arranged, and hosted by the individual Pythons themselves. And, of course, "Monty Python Live" shows what happens when absurd TV sketches are inflicted on live audiences. Now stop reading and put a disc in your DVD machine. This bloody box of buffoonery can't watch itself.
BEFORE THE FLYING CIRCUS presents an inside look at how Monty Python was born and features interviews with the Pythons, rare personal photos, home movies, University era cast recordings and much more.
MONTY PYTHON CONQUERS AMERICA chronicles the Troup's meteoric rise from its humble U.S. beginnings to changing the face of comedy as the Yanks knew it! Hank Azaria, Judd Apatow, Jimmy Fallon, Carl Reiner, David Hyde Pierce, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, and many others iscuss how Monty Python changed their lives.
DVD Features Include:
That's like 5 dollars a disk

Whats it like not having a soul?

haha i kept yours until my phone deleted it because it was forever ago
i didnt drunk dial you recently?
surprised
Pretty ironic that this comic is not funny at all
eh eh
nudge nudge
probably because they lived through it and it's like 'i dream of jeannie' reruns in the US
because of the type of people who praise its genius and quote it incessantly
Care to expand on that? I'm not too sure what you mean.
lame, outdated, old, etc.
Secret Satan
wink wink
say no more say no more
know what i mean
Of course you can't watch it 100 times
But 4-5 times is just right
The first time I ever saw anything Monty Python was at a friend's birthday party (his parents were from England) and we watched Hollywood Bowl. It was amazingly funny, I will be buying this.
*Edit I was expecting a FAMILY circus thread, this is much better.
too much monty python analysis going on
it just isn't very good
covering-my-ass-edit: i appreciate that it's very important, groundbreaking and trendsetting. except when the trend that came before you (peter cook and dudley moore) is considerably funnier than the one you're setting, that doesn't count for much.
zweiten edit: this, you see, has me in tears.
