The Monty Python Channel

The Funny Site of the Day -- Here at About Web Humor, also known as The Ministry of Silly Clicks, 'twas a delight to discover this open letter from the gents of Monty Python at a famous online video portal we'll not embarrass by mentioning.

For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It's time for us to take matters into our own hands.

We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell. But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we've figured a better way to get our own back: We've launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube.

No more of those crap quality videos you've been posting. We're giving you the real thing - HQ videos delivered straight from our vault.

What's more, we're taking our most viewed clips and uploading brand new HQ versions. And what's even more, we're letting you see absolutely everything for free. So there!

But we want something in return.

None of your driveling, mindless comments. Instead, we want you to click on the links, buy our movies & TV shows and soften our pain and disgust at being ripped off all these years.

Drat. There's always a catch. Of course, you could join me in my subtle, giant Trojan bunny and sneak over there for the videos and stiff the gift shoppe.

Currently, there are only two dozen or so Python videos posted from the television series and films, primarily Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the Spamalot source material. Whether those comedy clips will be rotated with others or increased in numbers remains to be seen. Whatever, my personal prediction is for something completely different.
