Aahh fiddlesticks! I thought this was about your favorite python. Would have voted for this one, if we were talking serpents :  Green tree python. I voted for the orangutan that is John Cleese. Long limbs and general nonsense fits me like a tandem bike with training wheels.

| Mr. Cleese followed very closely by Mr. Chapman. |

Michael Palin or Terry Gilliam, can't decide which. Having said that, Cleese's manic turn in the Architect sketch is the Python routine that makes me laugh the most. ------------- "And now...on the drums...Mick Underwooooooooood!!!" "He's up the pub" |

the world becomes less funny each time a Python dies, that is a natural law, a law of physics, it is noticed just by the loss of Graham.. just waight fore they all is dead,, then then sky turns dark and acid will fall from the sky

Very tough poll. If we're talking purely about what they did with Python, probably Cleese (though they were all brilliant writers and performers in their own way). If we're talking about their work as a whole, Gilliam and Palin have been pretty consistently marvellous post-Python, whereas Idle, Cleese and Jones have been a little less consistent. Bugger it, I'll vote for Chapman. After all, things would have gotten completely out of hand if Chapman's Colonel hadn't been on hand to stop things getting "too silly". |

Close call for sure, but I'll vote for Cleese.
But, as others have said, they all are pretty great. ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |
