Ripping Yarns had great moments too. Rutland Weekend Televison anyone?

... and of course the superb The Rutles.

My memory may be a bit foggy on this one but I think Xena did a homage to the killer rabbit bit. I think the episode was title Hell and Sickness?

Classic stuff. The Meaning of Life wouldn't be the same film without this wonderfully insane prelude.

And lets not forget the musical Spamalot .

Long ago, I had a 486 PC, and had a PYTHONIZER on it. Among its features was a screensaver with the TV IS BAD FOR YOUR EYES clip.

For me the fish slapping skit stands out. What kind of mind could come up with something so simple and make it work?

I saw a US made Post WWII film about Berlin & spies, and there was a scene with 2 guys in traditional German / Swiss clothing and they were performing a dance in which they repeatedly slapped each other.
