Monty Python’s Flying Circus is the most influential sketch comedy show ever made. Their style of humor, which was absurd and often surreal, took comedy to the next level. Even if you’re too young to remember when it first aired in 1969, chances are you’ve seen some of these classic Monty Python sketches. Their success on television was followed by absolutely hilarious films, such as Monty Python and the Holy Grail and Monty Python’s Life of Brian.
