Monty Python's Flying Circus
Monty Python's Flying Circus is just a British comedy series broadcast by the BBC from 1969 to 1974 and generated by the comedy group Monty Python. The shows were written of humor, sight gags and observational sketches. It also featured animations by Terry Gilliam, mixed with live activity or often sequenced. The first episode was listed on 7 September and broadcast around 5 October 1969 on BBC One, together with 4 5 episodes airing over four series from 1969 to 1974, and two episodes for German TV.
The series is, and concentrates on the idiosyncrasies of life, especially that of professionals occasionally politically charged. The members of Monty Python were educated. Terry Jones and Michael Palin have been Oxford University graduates. John Cleese, eric Idle, and Graham Chapman attended Cambridge University. And manhood. Their comedy is pointedly intellectual to literary figures and philosophers. The series followed and elaborated up on the style utilized by Spike Milligan in his cutting edge series Q5, rather than the conventional series format. The team intended their humor to be impossible to categorise, and succeeded so completely the"Pythonesque" was invented to define it and, later, identical material.
