[quote]Monty Python (sometimes known as The Pythons)[2][3] were a British comedy group that created the influential Monty Python's Flying Circus, a British television comedy sketch show that first aired on the BBC on 5 October 1969. Forty-five episodes were made over four series. The Python phenomenon developed from the television series into something larger in scope and impact, spawning touring stage shows, films, numerous albums, several books and a stage musical as well as launching the members to individual stardom. The group's influence on comedy has been compared to The Beatles' influence on music.[4][5][/quote]
[quote]The television series, broadcast by the BBC from 1969 to 1974, was conceived, written and performed by Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin. Loosely structured as a sketch show but with an innovative stream-of-consciousness approach (aided by Gilliam's animation), it pushed the boundaries of what was acceptable in style and content. A self-contained comedy team responsible for both writing and performing their work, they changed the way performers entertained audiences. The Pythons' creative control allowed them to experiment with form and content, discarding rules of television comedy. Their influence on British comedy has been apparent for years, while in North America it has coloured the work of cult performers from the early editions of Saturday Night Live through to more recent absurdist trends in television comedy. "Pythonesque" has entered the English lexicon as a result.[/quote]

There's a higher quality version just a few videos above when you search for this one, but that one doesn't allow embedding.

No, it isn't
Also, you know what really trips my cynicism switch? People adding 'V1' to their threads. Newsflash, this isn't Fast Threads, and it was a horrible trend when it started there, too. Stop it.

I'm pretty sure I didn't edit that. I can tell because I am in ownership of my computer, and I don't have an edit bar. And I remember writing it.
It's funny because you're either covering for the fact you didn't read it, or you misread it. It's like saying your brother wrote that stupid wall of text describing how 9001 is epic lulz.
See, this is what it looks like when I edit my post.
And by the way, it's never too late to make a monty python thread. That shit was always funny.

No, there is a little button next to your posts that says "Edit" so you can edit your posts whenever you want to without anyone noticing easily. It only displays an edited icon in your post if it merges two of your posts.
