If your life has been so joyless that the name Monty Python means nothing to you, than please step away from the ledge and come inside. This compilation of greatest hits from the comedy group's BBC series (e.g. the dead parrot, the world-famous Lumberjack Song, the killer joke, the Hungarian-English phrasebook (and its great beginning "In 1971 the British Empire lay in ruins") is silly, irreverent, gut-busting fun.
