Love Python. Saw Spamalot twice.


I saw the original broadway cast in 2005 with director Mike Nichols...well, original except for Sara Ramirez. She was off that night and her replacement sang off-key, but the original guys- Tim Curry, David Hyde Pierce, Hank Azaria and Christian Borle were fantastic.

Where did you see it?


I saw it in Boston twice in 2008. Just the national touring cast. Would have loved to have seen the orginal cast.

Yes! But I liked the cartoons best! Especially the big hedgehog looking for "Dinsdale".
I like "all" the shows from the U.K. Would you happen to like Red Dwarf by any chance? I like the most recent ones the best of all.

I used to have a 2 volume set called 'Monty Python: the Words'.

Strangely enough, 'the Philosopher's song' isn't in it...:|

E...mmaual Kant was a real pi**ant and very rarely stable
Heidigger Hiedigger was a boozy beggar, could drink you under the table...;0

And Socrates himself will be particularly missed...;)

I really adore them. I got into "Monty Python's Flying Circus" when I was really little thanks to my dad. I've also seen all the films as well.

I didn't really like the last season of "Flying Circus" as much as the other three (mostly because John Cleese left and they went from doing standalone sketches to episode length stories), but the "Mr. Neutron" episode is really, really funny.

Yes, and I was one of the few people in my school who actually watched it before "Spamalot" became ragingly famous.

I'm yet another Monty Python fan. Think I might start ordering some Flying Circus DVDs. They were unavailable in the UK for a while.

I remember seeing "And Now For Something Completely Different" when I was about 7 though, and I thought it was the weirdest thing I'd ever seen. I felt so sorry for Arthur Pewtey!

Anyway, anyone seen the Oscar Wilde sketch? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UxXW6tfl2Y0 :)
