Summary: The best comedy show ever made!
Review: This 2-disc DVD contains some of the best moments in Monty Python (Spam, How Not To Be Seen, Atilla the Hun Show, Hungarian Phrase Book) as well as some that are lesser known (Communist Quiz, Poofy Judges, Crackprot Religions, The Idiot). The menus are very clever. They are a little tough to navigate through, but it's a change from other DVD menus. The extras are enormous! You get Lumberjack Kareoke, BBC sketches, quizes with video rewards, two Hollywood Bowl sketches, image gallery and tons more. However the only part that seems to suffer on this disc is the picture quality. There are tons of noticable fragements and rainbows. The VHS tapes might be a smarter buy in terms of quality, but for everlastingness (is that even a word?) choose the DVDs. So grab this DVD and order in some Egg and Spam, Egg Bacon and Spam, Egg Bacon Sausage and Spam, Spam Eggs Spam Spam and Spam, Spam Spam Spam Spam Spam Spam Spam Spam Baked Beans Spam Spam Spam and Spam.

Summary: The funniest skit I've ever seen
Review: This DVD contains quintessential Monty Python skits, with spam all over the place. But, this review focuses on one skit on this DVD, which is the skit that made me laugh more than anything else I've ever seen.


The Hungarian phrasebook is skit is basic on a simple premise: Hungarian immigrants to England need English translations of basic phrases needed in everyday life. But, sinister forces are afoot, and a not-so-innocent phrasebook is published. The skit shows the devastating effects of this nefarious deed, as John Cleese portrays a proper Hungarian gentleman going into a tobacconist's shop and . . . I don't what to spoil it. But, the end result had me laughing until I cried.


*da dolphin boy ponders a similar dolphin-human phrasebook, but rejects the idea as potentially fatal to human-cetacean relations*

Summary: A sometimes Funny, sometimes Annoying Collection!
Review: You can't get much better than Monty Python the kings of sketch comedy. Yes some British humor is hard to get as an American but for the most part it is histerical. This set is just as good as the others and I recomend purchasing them all. I love Monty Python so much I named all my pets Eric.
