Subj : Re: Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations To : All From : cruciverbalist Date : Wed Aug 18 2010 09:37 am From: cruciverbalist On Tue, 17 Aug 2010 12:38:43 -0700 (PDT), BB wrote: >And Hill was! And I agree. I always thought Hill was funnier and more clever than MP. I know that's blasphemous to say in a MP newsgroup. Now don't get me wrong. I love MP. I laugh my ass off when I watch them. And sketches like the dead parrot, the cheese shop, the argument clinic and Wuthering Heights in semaphore are pure brilliance. But *on the whole* I always found Hill to be more *consistently* clever. And, of course, MP never had anything like Hill's Angels! :-) Needless to say, YMMV.
