Monty Python

I do. Maybe the funniest most creative troupe ever.

You didn't even mention The Meaning of Life. Their comic is pure genious. I have yet to find anything as funny as Monty Python. In fact, after watching as much Monty Python as I have, nearly all other comedians/groups are just lame in comparison - IMHO (well, except for maybe Spinal Tap, but you get my point). Thanks to my enjoyment of Monty Python, I see comedy in nearly all daily life. Unfortunately, there are very few who with which I can share the joke due to the complexities of such humor.

'Yes I have.'

Ooooh, complex.

My brain is aching from the sheer complexity of the humor.

'So in this scene, because of standard chaos v. superstring debate, we're going to find the reciprocal of such classic performances as "The Fiddler on the Roof" & c. and multiply by the coefficient. Such results being garnered, we will then proceed to Article IV.3, which deals with the aforementioned sublimation of disseminating advertising campaigns from the 1940s. Therefore, at the end, John will be doing what we call, in Newton's term, a "silly walk." Did everyone bring a calculator?'

You see, now that's what I'm all about. Sometimes I get like that at work, but I'm really serious and a lot of people try to hard to think about what I'm saying and they just don't get it. There's one in every crowd, though.

A good majority of Monty Python is brilliant, yes. I also think the Kids In The Hall are worthy of mention as far as comedy troupes go. Canadian, gay, and funny.

What about 'Bottom'?. That's also hilarious.
