The founding members of one of the most groundbreaking comedy troupes and TV shows of all time are reuniting this week. And you're invited.
Monty Python's 40th anniversary reunion at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City will be broadcast at IFC.com and Pythonline.com. Both sites will host the event at 9 p.m. Eastern.
This latest reunion marks their first appearance together in public since their memorable reunion show at
the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, Colo. Watch it or you're no fun anymore.

You keep saying "this week" and then you mention that it'll happen at 9PM, but you don't tell us what day this is happening, LOL. October 15th, Thursday!
Maybe you wanted to drive traffic to the link, I dunno.

hmmm... do you have to be a member of some club to see that there is a broadcast on the 15? ifc.com had no mention of a reunion on their website, which is surprising considering all the attention it's getting elsewhere... Did I miss something in the blog post or am I reading it wrong?
