The parrot sketch and the Lumberjack sketch are well known in the UK, they are considered classic timeless pieces of comedy. I still laughed at them and I laughed at your confusion at seeing the madness of Monty Python. Keep up the great work😄😄😄

Both sketches (and Monty Python) are well known in the USA (and elsewhere).

With Monty Python you need to engage a sense of the absurd. Don't try to make sense of it.

'The Norwegian Blue' is the joke that goes under the radar. Straight from the suggestion box of Cleese's co-writer, the late Graham Chapman.

A joke from this sketch that many people seem to miss is the breed of parrot (It's actually a Blue and Yellow Macaw). On the sketch they call it a "Norwegian Blue", as if there is a parrot native to Scandinavia. 😂

You do realise you are creating a Maelstrom with that rather controversial comment...

Monty Pythons transitions from one sketch to another are often absolutely hilarious. There are comedians that have made a living on sketches that are less funny than Monty Pythons transitions between sketches.

This is a staple of end-of-year sketch shows at schools! Most Brits can recite every line off by heart, "This parrot is no more. It has ceased to be. It's expired and gone to see its maker. This is a late parrot... If you hadn't nailed it to the perch it would be pushing up the daisies. It's run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-parrot." And don't get me started on the Lumberjack Song...

never try to make sense of Monty Python. lol And this is a classic skit

Welcome to the dark side that is known as Monty python. They also did some films. The holy grail and the life of Brian are worth a watch.

Hello, I'm re watching Flying Circus for the tenth time I think and I don't know if I'm going insane or what but that "bizarreness" makes more sense with every new watch 🤔😁. Their intelligent, abstract, absurd sense of humor is as great as their acting; sometimes I get lost thinking of their perfect diction while saying very fast very intrincated sentences in a "woman's" high tone, all too difficult 😱. Always welcome a piece of british comedy, greetings from Buenos Aires 👍👋

Hahaaa 🤣 Welcome to the world of Monty Python…..if you follow the trail, it’s quite a ride 🤣🤔😵‍💫😁…almost guaranteed to make you see society and the world in a different light. Thanks for sharing 🤗

Two of the most Iconic Monty Python sketches. You need to do Bicycle Repair Man.

A classic British comedy sketch well known by lots of people over here.😆

One of the all time classics. Be warned...... if you go down the Monty Python rabbit hole we wont see again for many months. You will need painkillers for your ribs from laughing. Although a lot of Americans just cant understand English and Australian humor.

Welcome to the random irreverent world of Monty Python... I'm not sure you got the irony and pathos, especially in the lumberjack song...

You have to check their "Black Knight" sketch, it`s just a flesh wound.🤣🤣🤣

Monty python's humor is so so stupid and so so good

Monty Python was 100% pure genius.

Trying to make sense of Monty Python is like disecting a frog, nobody laughs and the frog dies!

The sketch is a superb classic, no doubt, but meanwhile ... you trying to make sense of it was a joy in itself :-)

I got a big taste of Monty Python in the 1970s when I was a teen and have loved them ever since

OH YES!!! And the Argument Clinic and Ministry of Silly Walks.

Monty Python was notorious for suddenly jumping to totally unrelated scenes.

The comedy is in the sheer ridiculousness of the situation. Old style lumberjacking, with just muscle power, would have been an exceedingly masculine occupation. Selling dead parrots is an equally ridiculous concept. Who would buy a parrot from a pet shop, without checking that it was alive first?

This was a really interesting reaction, but may I respectfully suggest that when you watch any Monty Python sketch you avoid trying to make a common sense narrative out of it as I don't believe that any common sense narrative was ever put into it. It's classic British humour of the 1960s & 70s alongside others like 'At Last, The 1948 Show'. I lived it and I loved it while my parents couldn't get it at all.

The best one of Monthy Pythons is the first one I saw in 1970: The Killing Joke.

These sketches are also common knowledge in Germany, monty python is absolute part of culture.I'll never forget the mice orgel...

Monty Python should never be analised...they were crazy hahaha

It's Monty Python!

Oh, but those parrots of the Norwegian jungles stun so very easily. Afterwards, and beyond, they tend to pine for rest, preferably on their final resting place.

this is from the film they made, and now for something completely different. they had a 4 series tv series with a lot more anarchic sketches

their argument clinic is very funny no, it isn't yes it is no, it isn't yes, it is.

Hahahahahaa.... Such a classic!! 🤣😂🤣 Thanks!!

You don't try to make sense of Monty Python... it's the entire absurdity of the comedy that makes it so funny. Many other British shows have come out since with a similar humour - but this was ground breaking as it was the first. It sort of reverberates some of the humour that could be seen in the Music Halls of the early 1900s.

They merged the parrot sketch into the lumberjack one because they did not know how to finish it.

Dick Emery-The Milkman and also The Driving Instructor are your sense of humoUr:)

Py - thon, like the snake.

Great plumage!

Another British comic you may like is Marty Feldman 😳. Better known as Eyegor, I mean Igor, Young Frankenstein 😉.

The live version from the TV series with a studio audience is actually much funnier.

I remember when I first saw the dead parrot sketch from the television 📺 show. I was a kid and I watched it with my mother. We laughed so hard! I think 🤔 the television version was better because John Cleese was more animated, especially with his thesaurus speech about the dead parrot 🐦. The audience reaction added to the humor.

My thoughts exactly.

Its called English humour, remember only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun, and of course we are all, windswept and interesting !.

Look for "funniest scenes of Monty python"...it's about 28 mins long but I promise you it will be a well spent half an hour 😂😂😂

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to check out the "Are We The Baddies?" sketch by Mitchell & Webb. Enjoy! :)

Epic monty you shocked my lovely lady ms uk

With Monty Python humour you don't ask what's that got to do with it? No one knows. It's random comedy.

THIS. IS AN EX- PARROT.

You gotta check out the Martin Luther skit. Are You Being Served was also a funny show. I haven't seen much but also The Mighty Bosh is good.

Know that when the lumberjack song was made, transsexuality had only been legal a few years. And would still be punishable in scotland for a decade. A century earlier it was a capital offense in all of the UK.

IN THE NETHERLANDS THE SIRIES WHERE ON DUTCH TV.

"Mr. Bean" by Rowan Atkinson .🤣🤣

No point in trying to make too much sense out of python. I've stood right where they filmed that. Black park, iver heath, Buckinghamshire, England. It's right next to pinewood studios where they film loads of big movies like star wars and James bond. Not far from where I used to live.

Jamie lee Curtis Kevin Kline. And 🇬🇧. Michael Palin John Cleese Cyntia Cleese 👍 if you not react on it so. Just look on it privat (: its high score english humor (: 🇬🇧🇺🇲🇸🇪

The whole point to this sketch is to use as many euphemisms for dead as possible. Don't apply logic - it's illegal to do that.

The parrot sketch can be used politically too :) kzread.info/dash/bejne/doVqtsmagK3JgpM.html&ab_channel=TellyFarnsworth These sketches are different from the TV series. The parrot sketch is longer and the lumberjack is a hairdresser if I remember correctly.

Hallo Tysheen and welcome to Monthy Python's crazy world . and the name Python pronounced with a P in the beginning so there is nothing special about the name . Greetings from Stockholm ....

Monty Python at the Hollywood bowl. Oh and it's Pythun not py thon.

Damn. This ISN'T the right version, sorry to say. This is the lousy movie version (they took the best sketches from the TV show - which was performed live in front of an audience) and put them into a movie. It's way better in the original. (The Lumberjack Song is part of an entirely different sketch) Love seeing you check out Python though! Just make sure they're the TV versions, because they were a TV show. (they did make some classic movies: Holy Grail, Life Of Brian and Meaning Of Life).

Try some more old British comedy like. Dick Emery - The Milkman.

Try the classic British comedy series "Rising Damp" it's soooooo funny. I guarantee you'll love it 😄🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

You really don't get British humour do you? PS cut out the background music.

Tysheen is taking all the obvious silly humor so seriously!!! This is meant to be zany humor and needs NO analysis at all-just laughter!! Does she try to analyze the Three Stooges or the Marx Brothers or Benny Hill the same way!!?? I love most of her reactions but she needs to let go and just laugh at the craziness. Period.

Stop looking for a story ending with a punchline! Our comedy doesn't work that way. You're being far too literal. Let go of your reason and just go with the sketches all the way without question.
