It's funny how I can just be puttering around the house and completely random Pythonisms will come out of my mouth. So of course it's only natural to inflict them upon this place.
I can still remember all the words to "Medical Love Song". But that never impressed people quite the way I had hoped.
Yeah. Theyve provided a retort for almost every given situation. Whenever my girlfriend asks me what aftershave ive got on i say...I wear rancid polecat aftershave!
Could all those US-citizens who claim to be big fans of Python, please pronounce python the way their subject of fandom does? Few things regarding US-Python relationships are as scoulding to the ears as "Pythooohn". Give English English a try and from now on pronounce "Pythun". After that we'll address the snobish fawning over this series. Oh there is fawning!!
Like 1975-79 SNL, Flying Circus is best seen via a "greatest hits" collection, and even then, this stuff is so well known that it may fall flat for you upon seeing it. IIRC, John Cleese himself even said that there were far more misses than hits.
I love the accountant who goes to career consultants only to be told his perfect job is an accountant! As we gave 3 accountants in the family it always made me laugh.
So, the first version I knew was the TV version, and Cleese just shoves a picture of a lion in Palin's face. A few years later, when I first saw the film version, it's an actual shot of a lion coming right at the camera and it scared the utter SHIITE out of me.
