My favourite sketches are the vox pops with the random characters, like the city boy who thinks they should release the vultures to attack the lower classes.. I can't watch vox pops on the news without thinking of these..

OH! The "wafer thin mint" has always gotten to me, too! My husband will just say that phrase, and I think I am going to be sick. (I have pretty much gotten him out of the habit - beating with a stick works wonders)

Someone mentioned the "Lumberjack Song" on another thread "I want to be a pirate in the pirates of Penzance!" - I love that one!

My husband said his favorite is the one where the guy comes in and wants to pay for an argument, but goes into the wrong room and winds up getting abuse, contradicition, etc.

The pirate song is played down here around Gasparilla Day (where Tampa gets invaded by pirates). I had never heard that before - the first time I did, I was an instant fan...

I think just about everything they did was hilarious, but the one that leaves me gasping for air each and every time I watch it is the "How To Annoy Someone" airplane pilot sketch. Good grief... it's just TOOOOO funny!

Hands down this is the funniest thing I have ever seen!

But I could name about a dozen scenes from "The Holy Grail" that make me almost pee my pants laughing. This is the best one:

The Dead Body That Claims It Isn't: I'm not dead.
The Dead Collector: 'Ere, he says he's not dead.
Large Man with Dead Body: Yes he is.
The Dead Body That Claims It Isn't: I'm not.
The Dead Collector: He isn't.
Large Man with Dead Body: Well, he will be soon, he's very ill.
The Dead Body That Claims It Isn't: I'm getting better.
Large Man with Dead Body: No you're not, you'll be stone dead in a moment.
The Dead Collector: Well, I can't take him like that. It's against regulations.
The Dead Body That Claims It Isn't: I don't want to go on the cart.
Large Man with Dead Body: Oh, don't be such a baby.

LOL, Michelle, that is the best scene in the Holy Grail. And the whole movie is one long excellent sketch.
