[Neoma]

1. All of the above?

[RevolutionaryActs]

2. LOL did you want me edit the poll?

[Neoma]

8. I just love them all

[RevolutionaryActs]

9. Oh gawd, that picture! IS TOO MUCH! LOL!!!

I love that skit.. oh who the hell am I kidding? I love all the skits! :7

[Neoma]

14. yes all the skits are brilliant

[6000eliot]

25. That is the "Upper-class Twit of the Year" sketch.

One of my favorites.

[ragin_acadian]

26. tony blair definately won upperclass twit of the year '04!

i'm going to pick the crew of the crimson permanent assurance as my favorite monty python characters. too bad they fell off the edge of the planet.

[qnr]

3. Same here n/t

[miss_kitty]

4. All of the above

[Minstrel Boy]

5. tougher than I'd thought to choose

And I was back and forth between Cleese and Palin, but went with Chapman. I think he was the heart of it. The most Pythonesque.

Ever see the BBC Channel 4 mini-series GBH? It's about 10 years old, I think. CBC ran it in Canada. Just about the best television drama I've ever seen. Palin was brilliant.

6. Voted Palin but want to plug for Gilliam, too! n/t

[tsuki]

7. Eric "but I didn't have the salmon mousse" Idle.

[48pan]

10. Cleese Was Classic

Silly Walk, Dead Parrot, Blind Pew and the best Nigel/Twit

The dead parrot routine was the single funniest thing I have ever seen on TV.

[Aristus]

11. None. They're ALL drop dead funny!

Eric Idle is the best songwriter, though.

As funny as it was, one of the most interesting things about "Flying Circus" is that it shows what a dreary place England was in the '70's. They've come a long way.

[Itchinjim]

12. Toss up between Cleese and Palin.

Individually they were brilliant; Together they were absolute genius
They worked off each other better than any others in the troupe. Terry Jones is a close second.

[RevolutionaryActs]

13. I never vote on my own polls, but I voted on this one,

because I felt bad that Terry Jones didn't have any votes! I do love him whens he's dressed up as a woman though! :P

[edzontar.]

15. Cleese rocks! n/t

[Radical Activist]

16. You just made a topic with three words used as euphemisms for

a penis. Sicko!

I picked Eric Idle.


Edited so they don't lock it so fast!

[RevolutionaryActs]

19. HA! I know, and its nowhere remotely near a sex thread.. ain't I special?!

:7

[Radical Activist]

22. Suuuuure it isn't a sex thread! Nudge nudge, wink wink

What's you favorite "member" heh? She says knowingly. Say no more!

[RevolutionaryActs]

24. I'm innocent on all charges, officer!

O8)

[Crunchy Frog]

31. The lifeboat sketch.

"Still no sign of land. How long is it?"

"That's rather a personal question!"

[Crunchy Frog]

17. I love them all

but I think I have to go with John Cleese on this one.

[Neoma]

20. Michael Palin on this one

[Crunchy Frog]

30. Love him too!

I would say that he is the best actor of the bunch. Just think of all the different characters he played in Life of Brian.



It's really hard to pick just one as your favorite, when they're really all your favorites.

[Rabrrrrrr]

18. Number 17 - the elbow

[deadparrot]

21. I love Cleese and Palin! Too hard! nt

[mac56]

23. Palin, without a doubt.

Cleese second.

Idle least favorite.

[kodi]

27. chapman, with jones a close second

loved all of them as actors, but the insanity of chapman and jones as writers carries the day.

i dont think any of the other pythons coud have played king arthur or brian ad well as chapman did.

[FredScuttle]

28. c'mon....Carol Cleveland in a landslide!

"I'm going to award the first prize this evening to the girl with the biggest tits."

[tuvor]

29. John Cleese.

I don't care how fucking runny it is.

[RevolutionaryActs]

32. Is it wrong to bump this for the day trippers?

Well... too late! :evilgrin:
