reference for non-brits:

Very Monty Pythoneske...

Oh I see, it all has to come back to Monty Python, doesn't it? Can't do nothing without sucking from the teats of the dead parrot sketch. Let me tell you, when i was a lass, we had to do comedy without Monty Pythong BOTH WAYS. And like it. If we didn't laugh we were flogged with a large salami and if we did we were flogged twice! You merkins don't know how good you've got it with your slapstick and jewish humor!

ooh, I wonder what a Monty PyThong would look like. I bet there's porn of it.

Yea, but did they hit you with a dead fish and knock you in the water?

As an hommage to the Fish Slapping Dance, yes?

actually, this

People describe The Goodies as a cross between Monty Python and The Monkees. I think that's accurate. I don't think The Monkees is as funny now, as it was when it first aired.

Did you see any Monkees when you were growin' up, Monst? I read somewhere that the Australians imported more US comedy than did Britain. They say the Aussies have experienced The Brady Bunch while the Brits have not. I'm fascinated by this cross-cultural meme-olution.

Yes, I didn't think it was funny then, either.

We didn't get the brady bunch but I think many of us are aware of what it is.

The funny thing is when I have to swing a Sledge Hammer I say EEEEEE Ecky THUMP!!!! I dont Have Any Idea Where it came from , it just seems to fit .
This Could Explain where I heard it !

I can confirm the presence of the Brady Bunch down here, but I didn't think it was taken as a comedy, more of a highly bowdlerised family soap.
Which makes the various rumours I hear about what was going on in the dressing rooms all the more amusing. I mean Greg and Carol, maybe, but Marcia and Jan?

Zippy, you crack me up.
