The Monty Python gang was simply brilliant. Sadly, those days have passed and the experience will never be the same. British humor is some of the absolute best.
Except many of their skits are happening in real life! Granny gangs are just around the block....
@Vic Kanid I agree. In fact, last week, when I bought a Norwegian blue, I got him home and realized he was dead and nailed to his perch.
@@bradleymorehouse7462 Ha, ha. True story. Back in the 80’s, I was working on Oahu and went to the local Walgreens for lunch (yes, it had a lunch counter then!). I asked the clerk about the selections. “Well,” she said, “ this one has salad, a banana and Spam. While this selection has edamame, Spam and cold noodles.” You can imagine what I started humming under my breath….🤣🤣
How enriched our lives were during those times...
I loved them all, but Palin was my fav...
Monty Python they’re like the Beatles, there can’t be a best sketch, they’re all so amazingly brilliantly funny
Truer words have been spoken but yours are as true
@@kevanbrown7620 fascinating. I always say; I don’t believe in random and there’s no such thing as coincidence.
Speaking of the Beatles, George Harrison was good friends with Eric Idle, and funded Life of Brian when it was turned down.
i guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a way to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my password. I love any tips you can offer me.
@Brody Max Instablaster ;)
"And for something completely different : thee LARCH."
And now...
Number one...
Thuhhh Larch....
etc.
Fred
The Larch is just brilliant
Cheese Shop omitted the funniest part: PALIN: You didn't ask me about Limburger! CLEESE: Do you have Limburger? PALIN: No.
The B-52s mention Limburger in their popular song "Dance This Mess Around".
Moreover, some say that when John Cleese was just six years old, he was mistaken for a certain John CHEESE and it haunted him for the rest of his life.
@@ObviousSchism The latter isn't true, but what is true is that his family's name actually used to be Cheese. His father used Cleese as a pseudonym to avoid embarrassment when he enlisted in the Army during WWI, and ended up legally changing his name to Cleese by deed poll after the war
@@rhonafenwick5643 OMG I totally made up that story! I had no idea it was really his name lol
"Confuse a Cat" always gets me.
Brilliant sketch!!
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition to be an honorable mention!!!
Nobody expects the Spa-oh bugger.
Should be number 2.
Guess who
Yes
CONFESS,CONFESS!!!
Oh wow, I've seen all of these. Also, the blancmange aliens turning people into scotsmen was one of my favorites.
"What about a pointed stick"
-Eric idle
SHADDUP!
I didn't expect the spanish inquisition to only be an honorable mention
+btamamura watchmojos Weapon is suprise and damaging our wishes, their Two weapons are surprise, damaging our wishes and Having Many subs , their three weapons Are surprise, damaging our wishes , Having Many subs and coming from the USA, their Four weapons... Ah f*** oft! XD
If its any consolation they did get #1 on WatchMojo's Monty Python Characters.
+btamamura I was just about to say that
Certainly more deserving of being in Top 10 than Fresh Fruit Self-Defense -- Fence?
They come from Canada. Not the U.S.
I don't agree with the list.....i would like an argument please.
+Dingo D. Manhunter Yes, you do!
+matgylper No, he doesn't!
Das TIER Yes, i do.
+Dingo D. Manhunter I can speak for all of us and no he doesn't.
Oh, i've had enough of this!
I notice the "How Not To Be Seen" skit is not seen on this list. That must mean it has learned the importance of not being seen!
I thought that was from “something completely different”, not flying circus. Or is it the same thing?
That one and The Battle of Pearl Harbor definitely deserved to be in the top 10.
THAT’S WHAT I SAID!!!! It should be number one!!
Yesssss!
Rest in Eternal Peace, Terry Jones, AKA Nigel "the Incubator" Jones.
Arthur "Two Sheds" Jackson
Face it Brian's mother is stiff, kick the bucket and is pushing up the daisies.
Inspector Harry "Snapper" Organs
@@garyfrazier5414 there has to be room for A Sniveling Little Rat-Faced Git, and his wife, Dreary Fat Old Boring Git, in my opinion. They were some gnarly guests at that cocktail party in Dulwich.
@@jacek-jan "this bird wouldn't voom if you put four million volts through it!
I remember repeating "my hovercraft is full of eels" over and over to myself when I'd be dead bored in English classes. They're so funny to this day, it's unbelievable!
The Larch.
The Larch
The.... Larch
Bottom
and we go now to number one, The Larch
the Larch
First skit I ever seen of MPFC. I was just staring at the TV like "Wtf was that?"
The larch
How did Eric's travel agency rant not make the list? Verbally one of the best four minutes in MP's career.
What a silly bunt.
What about The Four Yorkshiremen? I used to love listening to that sketch, struggling 10 miles to school in bare feet, uphill both ways, through ten feet of snow.
used to get up in the morning, ten o'clock at night, eat a lump of dried poison....
Nice one and I love that too. It's not an original Monty Python thouh because it's from At Last the 1948 Show with John and Graham and not the other Monty Python.
When we got home our Dad used to stab us through t'heart wit bred knife!
Luxury! My dad....
@@Rkenton48 Half an hour before I went to bed!
anyone else remember the bicycle repairman sketch?
all in a days work for bicycle repair man!!
Bicycle Repair Man! But How!?
"Is that a church warden?"
"Is he a quantity surveyor?"
"No, he's BICYCLE REPAIR MAN!"
"See...how he uses a spanner, to tighten that nut!"
The awful muscle padding under the clothes was hilarious.
I'm not saying it's my favorite sketch, but I do wish this list contained the sketch about Johann Gambolputty-de-von-Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crass- cren-bon-fried-digger-dangle-dungle-burstein-von- knacker-thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty- spelltinkle-grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelter-wasser-kurstlich-himble- eisen-bahnwagen-guten-abend-bitte-ein-nürnburger-bratwürstel- gespurten-mitz-weimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-schönendanker- kalbsfleisch-mittleraucher-von-Hautkopft of Ulm.
good show, old boy, good show.

No, you don't.
yes, i do
This isn't an argument. it's just contradiction!
The entire Cornwall cycling tour, the cheese shop skit, the Oscar Wilde skit, the funniest joke in the world, the dead parrot sketch- comedy gold!
"The Bishop!" should have gotten a mention.
Their TV show "Blackmail" should have made the list.
What happened to "Crunch Frog"?
"Don't you even take the bones out?"
"If we took the bones out it wouldn't be crunchy!"
Must be the lark's vomit.
charlietuba The surprising spring-loaded chocolate that penetrates both cheeks
Constable Clitoris had one of those.
Oh god! I'd forgotten about that one!
I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!
No one does;)
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!!

We have two weapons fear, fear a compulsive need to continue jokes and our ability to beat a dead horse!
***** I expected them.. but i got attacked by a gang of old ladies and was too late
The "How not to be seen" sketch is definiately one of my favourites.
"We don't know which bush he's hiding behind, but we can find out ...
Ka-Boom ! ... Ka-Boom ! ... *KA-BOOOOM*
Yes, it was the middle one !"
That would be a bit much for WM.
Python haters would bring up that sketch and stare at me dumb-faced as I quoted the whole thing while trying not to fall on the floor laughing.
@@skepticalfaith5201 It taught me the importance of not being seen!
No one ever gets the reference when I tell them I'm practicing How Not To Be Seen.
My favorite was the Flying Sheep segment! I still laugh about it today and its been almost 50 years!
Ou sont le baggage!!! lol i loved it too
The Pythoners voted the Fish Slap Dance as their favorite. The Gumbies and Pirhanna Brothers should have received at least an honorable mention.
*"DINSDALE!!"*
I don’t mind the Fish slap but really it’s the most popular
Oh, my brain hurts! Psst,......bottom, tee-hee! "The ministry of silly walks"! "Not much of a cheese shop, is it"? "This parrot is deceased, it's a non-parrot"! etc. etc.!
The fish dance my absolute favorite. Laugh out loud no matter how many times I've seen it. Love everything Month Python and miss their craziness. So glad Terry Gilliam is directing. What a credit to his background.
G
Agreed, the "Fish Slap Dance" should've been in the Top 3 at a minimum.
LOL Being a Monty Python tragic I remember being a little kid begging my parents to let me stay up (this was before VCR - I am now in my late 50s). Cleese, Chapman, Gilliam, Idle, Jones and Palin were all way ahead of their time.
me too!
I discovered them after their series finished on TV. videos for me
Millertas - me too & I remember it only aired on the PBS channel & we had to wiggle the antennaes like mad, just to get it in. But all us teens loved Python! Still do.
I'm just a tick younger than you; I had heard of MP but couldn't see it as a kid. Thankfully I met my husband when I was 17, and he and his father loved British humor, so I got fully indoctrinated into MP AND "Are you Being Served?"
I only discovered it in college. Still probably haven’t seen half the episodes. My favorite one missing is the one with the pink hedgehog looking for Dinsdale.
Well, that and “How not to be seen”, but there’s no way WM would show that one.
I love the Yorkshire Man sketch. ‘If you tell kids today they won’t believe you’ 🤣🤣
Hello Tabatha, How are you doing?
I think I'm okay with the Parrot sketch being number one, cause in their last show, Cleese says 'HE'S DECEASED! HE'S GONE TO SEE DR CHAPMAN!'
Then they both pause and look up and give him a salute.
When was this "last show"?
@@jamespgray6928 late 2010's before Terry Jones passed away - they had Mike Myers and other celebrities taking part in it: should be on YT somewhere
I think the Hitler sketch is so very funny. It makes me laugh every time I see it. I also love the Blamnage turning Englishmen into Scotsmen. All in all the list is pretty good.
?guuugtyy
Mr. Hilter!
"blancmange" (it's French) - yes that was one of my favorites, too! The Giant Blancmange from the planet Skyron in the galaxy Andromeda.
It means to win Wimbledon!
There was also the Mr. Smoketoomuch sketch.
Fred
I appreciate how the voice-over explains each sketch because without it, I wouldn't get the the jokes. [/sarcastic comment]
Just viewing and you have nailed, annoying American voice over clearly needed to explain Britsh humour to Americans......aaaarghhhhh.
“The four Yorkshiremen” where they one-up each other to have the most deprived childhood. Classic pythonesque progressively more ridiculous. Dramatically it is beautifully put together. Hilarious. Effective punchline (which pythons could only achieve inconsistently). So, Guv, that’s myyyy vote.
Love it too but it's not a Monty Python original though.
@@thejericarturesshow8723 yep. not from the TV show. Was their live performance on tour.
@@Rkenton48 @Rkenton48 it's from The 1948 show actually, featuring Graham and John. The other two aren't Monty Python.
One of my favourites that wasn't mentioned: "Italian class" (or whatever it might be called), pretty early in first season. Where Italians attend a class to learn to speak Italian, taught by a an Englishman who only speaks a little Italian with heavy (and hilarious) British accent.
Gold moment 1: Two Italians start to argue, and the teacher has to ask another student what they are saying. It's something like "Napoli is better than Milan", and the teacher's response: "They shouldn't be saying that, we haven't learned comparatives yet!". :-)
Gold moment 2: A guy in the back dressed as a stereotypical German gets up and asks something in German. "What? Oh, Helmut, you'll want the German class next door!"
Brilliant.
If I'm not mistaken, the German was Graham Chapman, and he asks "Bitte, was is das Wort" .... and he gets out saying "Ah ! Das Deutscheklassezimmer! AH"
@@floatingsara Yes, and he asks the word for "Mittelschmerz". And that word appears again some episodes later. It makes me laugh because it is such a specific word...
Thank the universe for Monty Python, without them we would never have understood true comedy.
What about the forgotten composer "Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- crasscrenbon- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- ticolensic- grander- knotty- spelltinkle- grandlich- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nürnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shönedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm" sketch??
Jere616 Arthur Two sheds Jackson
It was too long to include, I suspect.
"Dinsdale? Dinsdale!"
No sorry. Not silly enough.
church police 😂
Always great to have a narrated explanation of humor. This blows a rather huge one.
There is no such thing as having one Monty Python favourite...... they are all favourites.
"Well it's certainly uncontaminated by cheese!"
All of these sketches are in my top list, though the Bruce sketch should've been at least an honorable mention.
face it, the top ten moments, this is an impossible task...how can anyone reduce Python to a top 10! its all comic genius, from the opening comment 'Its!' to the closing score! even the animation was ground breaking! visual and literary genius, all of it...the like never to be seen again! these were the original alternative comedians..thank you monty python...you made the cold war years a little less chilly!
I loved the sketch where John Cleese is using a Hungarian-to-English dictionary at the tobbaconist shop. Priceless!

This video represents my youth. Once I became aware of them, I spent the entire week looking forward to the Monty Python's Flying Circus episodes that were broadcast on PBS at the time. I can't remember who it was that turned me on to them, but I am willing to bet it was my older cousins. They were always one step ahead of me vis-à-vis pop culture. I was listening to Motown R&B until they told me about this new thing called Rock & Roll. That was in the late 1960s, of course. But it is the introduction to my psyche of Monty Python in the early 70s that really shaped my future sense of humor.
Thankyou for sharing this humour. Its good to revisit these oldies & goldies.
Hello Sarah, How are you doing?
Bah. We don't need canned commentary on Monty Python. Just shut up and play the clips.
Yes! Get on with it!
Stop that! It's very silly indeed1
Hear hear. Was very jarring watching the hilarious clips and having some American almost screaming AND THEN THEY DID A FUNNY THING in typical, over the top American style. Also hearing Monty Python pronounced the American way was weird. MONTY PIE-THAHN 🤔 Weird. And she adds comments for the sake of talking which ad nothing to the narrative. Just talking for the sake of talking.
She couldn't even say silly walks right. minus 25 for sins.
I don't mind canned commentary -- as long as it has a nice woody sound, not tinny!
This would have been a lot better if we could just watch the sketch instead of having the narrator explain everything to us as we watch it.
I think we're on the same page. I've stopped it at 30 seconds in, after the narrator pronounces Python with on American 'on' rather than the British 'un' repeatedly. It looks like it's going to be one of those videos that's excessively voiced over to the point of inanity that distracts the viewer from the quality of the original material, and also irks the listener by presenting it in an alien (or, foreign) fashion.
Exactly. The last thing we want is some dumb yank explaining to us why this is funny,
The narration is fine, not everyone is familiar with the Pythons or the cultural context.
@@FlavioMarceloSousa35 I'm with you here. Also, her comment on the CZcams comment section was quite good.
Yes really dumb
I used to watch Python with my dad... OMG great memories!! Their humor is still as funny today as it was all those years ago!!
MONTY PYTHON WAS A TRUE CLASSIC BRITISH HUMOR!!!
What about The Four Yorkshiremen? That sketch is hilarious!
With you there!
***** You're right, of course. Still, a funny sketch.
That's originally a skit from At Last The 1948 Show, a pre-Python comedy programme, which was performed by soon to be Python members, Cleese and Chapman, along with Marty Feldman and Tim Brooke-Taylor. So technically it isn't a Python skit, although Four Yorkshiremen is most associated with the Pythons, thanks to their reenactment of it at the Hollywood Bowl :)
This is the TV show.
"My hovercraft is full of eels!"
THE KILLER JOKE. My all time favourite Monty Python sketch.
The argument clinic is simply exceptional.
Argument Clinic is my favourite sketch of their's. Simple but hilarious
No it isn't.
I'm ashamed that I almost fell for that XD
No your not
Matt Rabeuf yes he is
Spencer Mashkoori no he's not
"Hell 's Grannies" is top! :D
Oh... and the philosophical football game, too....
I can't look at a flannel shirt without thinking of the lumberjack song.
Gumpy The brain surgeon sketch. I can watch it over and over and over and it makes me laugh every time 🤣🤣🤣 But they are all great!
*He's a lumberjack and he's OK,*
*He sleeps all night and he works all day*

I am a lumber jack and I sleep at night but I never wanted to dress like my mother. She has terrible taste and we are 2 different body types. Now Marlene Dietrich? Oh, honey I am so down for that
@@kentonclarkson1449 Bravo, oh Bravo ! Well done !
(Sobbing) I thought you were so rugged.
Dear Sir
I wish to complain in the strongest possible terms about the song you have just broadcasted about the lumberjack wearing women’s clothes. Many of my best friends are lumberjacks, and only a few of them are tranvestites.
Yours faithfully, Brigadier Sir Charles Arthur Strong (Mrs.)
P.S. I have never kissed the editor of the Radio Times.
"Hello Polly.... wake up Polly"-- that whole speech is my husband's alarm in the morning. :-P
"I want to buy some Cheeeeese"....foreshadows Wallace and Gromit methinks.
They even have Wensleydale in the sketch.
RIP Terry Jones, you and the Pythons carved the way to inventive and provocative humo(u)or on both sides of the pond ;-)
P.S. I hope there is no Spam in heaven. I DON"T LIKE SPAM!
So... can we have your liver?
He's still using it!
the commentary explaining the clips is a bit unnecessary.
It's because Americans have to have things 'explained' to them.
excuse me? It's because some people didn't grow up watching the show in the 50's
+Bryian Hampton (SuperUltraTsunamii) it was from the 70s. plus it's English humour, which is quite different to American humour. very few americans"get" Monty Python, without it being explained.
The clips are self-explanatory. if you don't "get" what an upper-class twit is now, you wouldn't have got it in the 1970s either (not 50s).
+Paul Zink exactly my point!!!
These are all hilarious, but the one I almost died of laughter from is the job interview one. Where is it?
It was found to be not qualified for a WatchMojo video. You may be able to see it in some bank though.

I feel like the Agatha Christie and the Deja-vu sketches should have been in the honourable mentions! They had me laughing so much

I love that one.
Mine too, the Bicycle Repair Man
Amazing. You've managed to take out all the humor of these skits by use of commentary vs numbering and allowing them to play as is.
Its what Watchmojo does best
No, he hasn't!😉
For some reason I lost it on "Olympic Hide & Seek."
I would NEVER show MY silly walk to someone at The Ministry Of Silly Walks, come on, these people are professionals!
The Man With a Tape Recorder Up His Nose.🍀
"Ti's but a fleshwound"
It's in a movie, not part of their TV Shows.
Matthew Cowell That's a strong and accurate observation, you should be proud.
Matthew Cowell
Yeah, but still damn funny;)
Matthew Cowell what does that have to do with anything?
MrGreyWolfAlpha Look at the title of the video.
Arthur 'Two Sheds' Jackson!
Love this one too.
Bit O' Trivia about the cheese shop sketch; John Cleese, who wrote the sketch with Graham Chapman, wasn't fully convinced it was any good, but when they read it for the rest of the group, Michael Palin fell out of his seat laughing. That was enough to convince Cleese to go ahead with it.
"The Dirty Vicar", "Tennis Anyone?/Salad Days/Peckinpah" & "Deja Vu" sketches all put me on the floor when I first saw them.
Spanish Inquisition should have been on the list and not just an honorable mention.
*No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!*
Apparently everyone expects the Spanish Inquisition.
“My dog has got no nose”
That shot of Hitler makes me fuckin lose it every time
"How not to be seen" is my personal favourite Python sketch. Sadly it always seems to miss out from these countdowns
The Cycling Tour was also great. Palin and Jones escaping sure death by firing squad (no, wait, bayonet squad!) at the last second and appearing somewhere in the British countryside. "What an amoizing escoipe!"
"Two people...THREE people have gone past that window!" (completely missed that, didn't you?)
philosophy football ffs...." The germans are disputing it! Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics"
aaaand Marx says it's ofside
sonofeast11
Well, it was offside!
sonofeast11 beckenbauer an odd choice in the line up
"I could be arguing in my spare time" is so... timeless haha. Love it.
The Golden Age of Ballooning, Salad Days, Cycling Tour, It's a Man's life in the British Army, Caribou nibbling at the croquet hoops.
The philosopher's football match should deserve at least an honourable mention.
For sure!
Impossible to pick just 10 out of such a bounty of awesomeness! I have to admit I was surprised that the Spanish Inquisition was only an honorable mention.
The best thing about Python back in the day wasn’t so much watching the show but talking about it at work the day after - it was so unique and ahead of it’s time
"And in the streets, vicious gangs of keep left signs..."
STOP
I would like the dead parrot sketch said at my eulogy.
When my mother died I had a very hard time explaining the concept to Sprint to cancel her account. After telling them that she had "passed on", they asked if I wouldn't rather just switch her service to her new address. By the time the call ended I had come perilously close to reciting the entire parrot sketch at them.
"Ay think 'e's just pinin' ..."
Why am i not surprised the Spanish Inquisition didn't place?
Because nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
One of best show ever . Everybody was so great in there roles.
Hello Katarina, How are you doing?
"Coal miner son" is my favorit
It's the Bishop! 😀 the boxer sketch where John Cless beats a 8year old girl 😅 The death of Mary Queen of Scots ✌
I was not expecting the first honorable mention...
Well played. :)
nobody expects the first honorable mention...
NOBODY EXPECTS THE FIRST HONORABLE MENTION!
I object to so many Watch Mojo lists, but I have to give credit when credit is due. This is a terrific list. The 127th Annual Twit of the Year skit is easily my favorite, but the other 9 are very well deserving.
The undertaker sketch.
"Not raw, COOKED!!"
😄😄😄😄
YES!!!! This was the shit that killed me, LMMFAO!!!! The ONLY time the audience actually swarmed the stage in defense of good taste.
In 1945, peace broke out.
It was the end of the joke.
how in hell did spanish inquisition not make the list but upperclasstwit did?
Because no one expects the Spanish Inquisition ;)
Paul Dickens LMAO!!!
I agree
Paul Dickens Their chief weapon is surprise..
Because UCTOTY is far funnier.
Ministry of Silly Walks is my favorite. I first saw it when I was 10 or 11 and Ilaughed so hard my side hurt. Forty years later I still feel the same. It's a sketch that's funny no matter your age.
the argument clinic gets me everytime 🤣
"How to not be seen!" should be added
I always liked this one because my real name is actually Mr. Nesbit. Lol
Are you saying that sketch could not be seen?
There MUST be Another TOP10 of Monty Python's Flying Circus moments
My favourite Monty Python sketch is, without a doubt, the dead parrot sketch. I think it's the funniest thing they ever did!
I like the Scotsman who got an order of 4 million kilts from Andromedra - and figured, on his abacus, "I'll have to make 2 goes"
The "bicycle repairman" is my favorite
Look at the way he turns that nut!
My Top 10 Monty Python Sketches:

7. Nudge, Nudge
6. Self Defense Against Fresh Fruit
