Monty Python's Flying Circus, Disc 3 DVD

Descripción del producto MONTY PYTHON'S FLYING CIRCUS SET.2-VOL.3 Tienda The first season of Monty Python's Flying Circus was a time of experimentation: how to transition from one skit to another, how to weave a gag through a show, and most importantly how to sustain the comic momentum of a sketch. In Episode 7, "You're No Fun Anymore," this last problem was solved by creating their longest sustained sketch to date. The seemingly modest Science Fiction sketch (as it's introduced by a smarmy Michael Palin in a tacky sport jacket) chronicles the dastardly plot of a race of sport-loving Blancmanges from the Andromeda Galaxy to turn all Brits into kilt-wearing, bagpipe-blowing Scotsmen! Also featured in the program are the Camel Spotting sketch, The Audit sketch, and lots of characters uttering the now-familiar line "You're no fun anymore." In what can only be a blatant but desperate ratings gambit, the Pythons named episode 8 "Full Frontal Nudity." OK, there isn't much nudity, but there is the classic Dead Parrot sketch ("Nah, it's only sleeping"), a marauding pack of vicious, motorcycle-riding Hell's Grannies, a society of gossipy hermits, and an extortionist offering protection to the British Army ("You wouldn't want any of those tanks to get broken, now, would you?"). Episode 9, "The Ant: An Introduction," features what may be the single most famous skit in Python's short but eventful history. Nervous barber Michael Palin dreams of a life among the tall pines of British Columbia and warbles, "I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK" with a chorus of Mounties, who become rather puzzled by the sudden turn in the lyrics ("I put on women's clothing and hang around in bars!"). This classic episode also features a man with a tape recorder up his nose, a mountaineer with double vision mounting an expedition up both peaks of Kilimanjaro, and a brief but memorable appearance of a full-fledged Gumby, who sings while banging himself on the head with bricks. The Monty Python troupe really hit their stride in these episodes, which feature some of their most inspired, hilarious, and just plain weird moments. --Sean Axmaker
