We’re giving away, in conjunction with A&E Home Video, one (1) copy of THE COMPLETE MONTY PYTHON’S FLYING CIRCUS: COLLECTOR’S EDITION on DVD.

Contest ends at 11:59pm EST on Thursday, December 11th.

For Pythonophiles who can already recite the “Spanish Inquisition” backwards comes THE COMPLETE MONTY PYTHON’S FLYING CIRCUS COLLECTOR’S EDITION. Inside this decorative carton (LOOK! up top, you silly git) lurk four seasons of Monty Python’s Flying Circus, two compelling documentaries, two Monty Python LIVE performances, and six “Personal Best” compilations. The whole great mess — Spam tins, parrot carcasses, blancmanges, and all — has been safely digitized, compressed into microscopic “funny bits,” pressed onto 21 shiny discs, and sealed within this whimsy-proof receptacle.

SO DON’T OPEN IT! All right, if you must. But beware: there’s new material you can’t repeat verbatim (yet). “Before the Flying Circus” employs rare vintage footage to explore the influences that ! shaped six young lunatics into the world’s most innovative comedy troupe, while “Monty Python Conquers America” documents their tremendous, yet astonishingly unlikely, American success. The six “Personal Best” collections present the best sketches and songs, as selected, arranged, and hosted by the individual Pythons themselves. And, of course, “Monty Python Live” shows what happens when absurd TV sketches are inflicted on live audiences. Now stop reading and put a disc in your DVD machine. This bloody box of buffoonery can’t watch itself.
