No. They would fall into my "meh, s'not bad" category if it wasn't for the past 10 years of my life filled with endless quotes out of context (although even in their original context, nyeh) by my friends.
Although I quite like their music; The Universe Song in Meaning of Life was excellent, and Bright Side of Life gave me a giggle.
And the actual Pythons are awesome, I loved John Cleese in Fable, for example, but when Jonathan Ross's character started doing the dead parrot line, A part of me went sad inside.
And I should note that for the sake of balance and fairness, I have seen Life of Brian, Meaning of Life, Holy Grail and a fair amount of Flying Circus, so I do know my source material.
TL;DR They would be middling but their fans ruined it for me.
so... 3? 4?

Stop it!
This thread is far too silly.
What we really need is more people saying why Twilight sucks and asking what you'd do with the last person you killed.
I'd marry them of course. It's the only decent military thing to do.
Now, let's have a decent thread or I'll have to call in the banhammers.
You there!
Yes, you, post a reasonable thread or I'll feed your cat to my horse.

OT: They seem funny, but I've never seen very many and never a complete movie, just seperate scenes.
I've just got to do it because no one else has.
Option 5 cannot be qualified so I will stick with option four. I cannot stand it, sorry. Someone had to answer the question in the title. Though. The answer is me.
Not flaming, don't want to be flamed. Thank you and goodnight.
Edit: someone did say it. Whoops. I will make it so they are not the only one instead then.

Brilliant and trailblazing at the time? Yes
Still funny today if you don't know/care about the history? Not particularly.
I suppose it's a little like the Beatles' albums: almost everyone who came after them has copied them, so the original no-longer seems that special to people who don't *really* know the genre/medium.

Option 3, they have some good material but the majority does nothing for me, or just does very little.
"This is an Ex-Parrot!" always makes me laugh, as does How Not to Be Seen, but I seem to be one of the few people who found the entirety of the Spanish Inquisition scene to be incredibly unfunny.

Monty Python isn't a person. It's a group of British comedians. Although that doesn't justify incessant quotes.Skullkid4187 said:
EDIT: Derp, forgot to give my opinion.
Love em' lot's, pretty much all of my school days were spent with friends who were heavily influenced by them (in a comedic way.) So my sense of humor has developed as such too. Also, very little offends me because of them either. They thought me to laugh at all the daft shit in this world opposed to ignoring it or letting it drag me down.
