When I first started to really watch Monty Python in high school, it wasn't as if the iconic British comedy group was new to me. Like many Americans, my local PBS station ran episodes of Monty Python's Flying Circus in the 70s and 80s, but dry British wit peppered with the occasional flight of utter absurdity only confused my brain, so but a small hazy recollection remained until years later. Well, now American youngsters can become confused all over again, because PBS is making all forty-five episodes available to its stations starting next year. Also on tap for next year is a series of specials each focusing on one of the troupe members titled Monty Python's Personal Best.

BBC America plays them also and I swear there are parts i have never seen before. And that is prolly true as the brit shows are longer then they are here, and usually have to be edited down, and most likely the weirder and more saucy things got snipped. If you want to see the REAL eps, pull up BBCA.
