Monty Python is a comedy group that originated in Britain in the 1960s and consisted of members such as John Cleese, Michael Palin, and Graham Chapman. The group created several popular television shows, films, and stage productions that are known for their absurdist humor and satirical commentary on society. Monty Python's most famous works include the films "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and "Life of Brian," as well as the television series "Monty Python's Flying Circus." The group's humor is characterized by its use of non sequiturs, irreverent jokes, and surreal imagery. Monty Python's influence can be seen in the work of many contemporary comedians and satirists.
