Matthew, did you like Dumb And Dumber(1994)? I thought Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, in this movie, elevated stupidity to an art form. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ky3FOn-CveI

I know my Mom used to be crazy for, Everybody Loves Raymond and while I was never a huge fan, I can take the series in small doses. Now, I sometimes channel surf and come across it and linger a bit.... ;) |

Hmmm, comedy... Well, I don't usually watch much comedy since I'm usually dissappointed, BUT there are some very good comedy films, my favourites are probably: 1) Monty Python's: The Quest For The Holy Grail 2) Ghostbusters. |

Blackadder is, according to me, the funniest comedy series in history. As for movies, I choose the Quest for the Holy Grail by Monty Python. Had me laughing the entire ride. |

This is a great scene from Monty Python And The Holy Grail(1975): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrzMhU_4m-g "She turned me into a newt!" The "killer bunny" scene was funny also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcxKIJTb3Hg Kex, have you seen Life Of Brian(1979)?

Another good scene is one that film features the brave knight Sir Robin, he's accompanied by his favourite minstrels that sing this song throughout most of the scene: "Bravely bold Sir Robin rode forth from Camelot. He was not afraid to die, O brave Sir Robin. He was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways, Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin! He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp, Or to have his eyes gouged out and his elbows broken, To have his kneecaps split and his body burned away And his limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Sir Robin! His head smashed in and his heart cut out And his liver removed and his bowels unplugged And his nostrils raped and his bottom burned off And his penis..." Then Sir Robin interrupts them. The Life Of Brian is good too. Mr Green |

I liked it but it seemed kind of weird to me at times. I need to watch it again.

Rather than delete this post, as I have a couple of others you've made that were unintelligible, I'm going to make a request here: would the next person posting in this topic translate to me what the quote in this post means. Thank you in advance. |

South park is a brilliant comedy series, got loads of DVDs. There are many classic British comedy series and films; anything from Monty Python is instantly a true classic. The blackadder series are all absolutely fantastic, too!
Only fools and horses is a long running British sit-com about two brothers from London who are always out looking for easy money. Nearly every episode ends with them getting scammed :lol: |

The recent passing of comedian Dick Martin got me thinking about another TV series I relished watching as a teenager, with my father: the Dean Martin "Roasts". Various guests were parodied by Dean Martin and a bevy of other comics and entertainers. Some clips from that show- Ruth Buzzi during the roast of singer/actor Frank Sinatra: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xj-cfXahoLU Rich Little during the roast of Frank Sinatra: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUQqFKrK2Fc&feature=related Foster Brooks during the roast of Jackie Gleason: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beo0wC9Uirk&feature=related
