It’s actually indicative of the modern Demonrat party.

I still have a t-shirt that was custom made back in the 80’s.

It simply says, “What’s all this, then?”

Anything with the twits. And what, no Lumberjack Song or Funniest Joke In The World?

I’ll never forget his performance in “The Man from La Mancha.”

Jeepers: Possibly a NSFW to the Galaxy Song link, depending on how you feel about a Tron version of the Miracle of Birth...

It always astounded me how much they referenced WWII and Germany 30 years after the war. A lot of the folks watching that lived through the terror bombing of London or heard from veterans who were fighting Germany and lost loved ones. John Cleese in Faulty Towers goose stepping around the room with his hand mimicking a mustache was hilarious.

Thought “Ministry of Silly Walks” was very good, based on difficulty and as an example of the Brits' love of “silly” comedy... But my favorite is Blackadder for its ingenious and ruthless comedic sarcasm...

“The Germans” episode is still to me the single greatest comedy episode of all-time.

“A lot of people ask us why we don’t use fly spray?”

“Well where’s the sport in that?”

Too many good sketches for me to pick just one. However, the little ditties between sketches are what stick in my head: ie

It's 7PM and time for the penguin on your tele to explode

And now for something completely different, a man with three buttocks

"How do you feel about sex on the tele?" " I don't like it. I keep falling off."

.....and so on.
