=== {{smallcaps| ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]:}}'' ===
* And now for something completely different.
* He's not pining, he's passed on! [[Hurricane of Euphemisms|This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! He's expired and gone to meet his maker! This is a late parrot! He's a stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed him to the perch he'd be pushing up the daisies! His metabolic processes are now history! He's off the twig! He's kicked the bucket, he's shuffled off his mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!]]
** The most prominent meme to emerge from the Parrot Sketch seems to be "pining for the fjords" which sets up the above [[Hurricane of Euphemisms]].
* NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!
** Due to the fact that all [[Tabletop RPG]] sessions must, by law, contain a Python reference, whenever there's something called an Inquisition (or even similar to the Inquisition), nobody expects them.
** [[Cool and Unusual Punishment|Fetch...]] [[Poke the Poodle|the comfy chair!]]
Line 20 ⟶ 19:
* [[My Hovercraft Is Full of Eels]].
* Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
** Yes, but that's not just saying 'no, it isn't'!
*** Yes, it is!
**** [[Hypocritical Humor|No, it isn't!]]
* No poin-ted stick?
** SHUT UP.
* "Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, LOVELY SPAM!! WONDERFUL SPAM!! LOVELY SPAM!! WONDERFUL SPAM!!" Yes, Monty Python [[Grokking the HorrorshowNeologism|unwittingly inspired]] the current usage of the word spam (As in spam e-mail: something irrelevant, repeated ad nauseum, not the meat product whose name they used)
* Marching up and down the square... alone.
* It's not particularly silly, is it? I mean, the right leg isn't silly at all and the left leg merely does a forward aerial half turn every alternate step.
Line 32 ⟶ 31:
* The Colonel would appear in the middle of a sketch, declare it to be silly, and tell everyone to leave.
* [[Gratuitous German|Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer? Ja! ... Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput!]]
* [[All Just a Dream|So it was all a dream.]]
** [[Subverted Trope|No, this is the dream, you are back in the cell.]]
* [[Disorganized Outline Speech|Our two weapons are fear and surprise and a ruthless efficiency...]]
Line 40 ⟶ 39:
* I want to apologize, humbly, deeply, and sincerely about the fork.
** Oh please, it's only a tiny bit... I couldn't see it.
*** Ah, you're good kind fine people, for saying that, but I can see it...[[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|to me it's like a mountain, a vast bowl of pus!]]

* She turned me into a newt!
** A newt?

** Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
