Guest guest Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 (And now for something completely different...) I just finished a week of taping Monty Python episodes, Monty Python live at the Hollywood Bowl, Life of Brian, Holy Grail, and interviews with the surviving cast members. I think it is the 40th year of Python, so Terry Jones' kid and another young director did a retrospective. (Now I remember what it was like when I was YOUNG.) I had forgotten what fun I had watching the show, which oddly enough was always on the somewhat snooty Public Broadcasting System TV channel in the States. I had also forgotten how much I missed the show. It was nice getting a re-glimpse of my younger days. Cyn Sent via BlackBerry by AT & T Quote

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 That sounds fun. I reckon Life of Brian is one of the funniest films ever made - and probably the most quoted.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 i would have to say Holy Grail is more quoted on this side of the pond, and also played on TV more... heartwerk Oct 29, 2009 3:41 AM Re: PYTHONATHON!

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009  Is it! I've only seen Holy Grail once, and although it was good, much preferred the Life of Brian.
