10/10
and now for something completely hilarious
29 March 2011
England's most famous comedy team made its name on its eponymous TV show, spoofing anything that could get spoofed, and has maintained a cult following ever since. John Cleese, Terry Gilliam (the only American member of Monty Python), Graham Chapman, Terry Jones, Eric Idle and Michael Palin depicted every possible wacky thing during their five years on TV -- namely the dead parrot and the Ministry of Silly Walks -- and in several movies since then.

During the 2008 presidential election, there was an Internet meme saying that the wrong Palin got chosen as John McCain's running mate: it should have been Michael Palin because he's tough on terrorism ("No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!") All in all, a great show! Aside from "A Fish Called Wanda" and "Fierce Creatures", another movie featuring multiple members of the team is "Splitting Heirs".
