The foundation of my sense of humor, thus probably the important piece of culture in my entire upbringing.

My second favorite skit show, there are definitely skits that don't work but they had the balls to try them, because no one had before.

Sometimes, when the right group of people get together they do something that has never been done before and will never be done after. Monty Python is such a show.

One of my favourite, pointless, irreverent, absurd and generally educational shows. I now know how to identify a larch tree from quite a far way away while not being seen.

More miss than hit but the ones that work are spectacular. There are some compilations of best skits - probably funnier to watch it that way.

Lots of hit and miss for me but I guess I'm lacking a lot of reference from that time period and some are very English. But some of those sketches are legendary.

The influence of Monty Python on comedy is indisputable. Their surreal, absurd brand of humour is not only peerless but also deeply satirical, intrinsically unconventional, wholly and multiply subversive. Several of the sketches found herein are, simply put, strokes of genius, written and performed to excellence by the independent, self-contained sextet. However, it is rather hard to overlook the amounts of filler material included in most of the episodes and even more so in the final season.

Watched two episodes, didn't get a single laugh from me. The movies are much funnier.

If you watch a best of compilation, there is a lot of great material. But a typical episode has at least as many misses as hits.

Honestly, I only remember the good bits but there was a lot of weak stuff too,

I take every irrelevant moment for the joy when this group strikes gold.

Irreverent, silly, surreal British comedy sketch show. One of my all time favourites. Nothing quite like it.

No. 1: The larch

Classic.

What I call "pure absurd comedy".

At it's best it's amazing, over all though it's OK.

It's genius. Much less hit-and-miss than many make out. It's nearly all hit.

ok, this is the first TV series I've ranked so far where I'm like, "how tf do I rate this?" Important and pretty awesome, but also somewhat hit-or-miss, tbh; the lows are stupid but the highs are super good, obvs. I'm a Graham Chapman guy, btw.

Caused me more abs pain than any Weider's Six training. Job interview skit in S01E05 is probably the funniest thing I've ever seen.
