you find one funny and the other one kinda silly and not funny at all. which one do you consider humorous? there are a select few who will claim that they like both. there is a simple explanation for this. those people lie. the links are temporarily down, but studies have shown ["Studies", nokhor et. al. 1953; "Studies which have shown", rohkon and nokhor 2005.] that is humanely impossible to like both.
I have to go with monty python. It is actually funny. Benny Hill is as fun as losing your legs in a carcrash.
Python.
Benny Hill consisted of lots of bikini clad birds running around and had one joke - the one with the bloke stood in front of the toilets obscuring the "wo" on the women. BH walks into toilet and is chased out by lots of bikini clad birds. Yawn.
Neither.
Monty Python was better, but Benny Hill was still a riot. Good bawdy English comedy.
Benny Hill was silly and "stupid funny" like Steve Martin. Monty Python was pure genius. I couldn't count the number of times I almost passed out from laughing so hard that I could hardly breath or shot beverage through my nose when an ill timed drink coincided with an MP punchline.
Python, no need to think about it... Meaning of Life, Holy Grail and Life of Brian are among the best movies ever.
JAG? your english, and you dont like python? Thats odd ~:eek:
Coming soon to Broadway, "Spamalot", the musical production of the Holy Grail.
Their bit on the rampaging grandmothers with machineguns still brings tears to my eyes. The absurdity of it all. Nudge-nudge, wink-wink.

I just think it is humanly impossible to like Benny Hill if your IQ is bigger than your shoe size.
Benny Hill? See it once, seen them all. :sleep:
Monty Python has got to be the best humourous gang i've ever seen. :laugh4:
MP forever!
Python owns your pathetic souls you foolish mortals!
Monty Python is better, but Benny Hill had some good ones too.
Drunk man in bar, late at night:"My wife told me to be home after 11. I'm drinking bloody fast as I can, but it's only my 8th." ~:cheers:
Now Finnish TV humor, that's something to make you cry! It seems to consist mostly of laughing at people with funny accents, or those who are obviously mentally handicapped.
Monty Python Any day of the week, and not just because I live within half a mile of where Terry Jones was born
I'm probably in a minority but I much prefer the 'flying circus' to the films much more variety.
Actually I've never heard of Benny Hill. Who is he? And Which Film was he in?
Thanks
And now for something completely different...
Fully Monty here. Timeless classic comedy.
29 to 1 at this point--wow, I wouldn't have guessed that.
the Black Knight, the Castle Anthrax, and the 'huuuge tracks of land'
Python by a mile
ichi ~:cheers:
oh, and the rabbit.
"That's one foul-tempered rodent!"
too much
Gone for Monty Python seen as i don't now benny hill and pythons damn funny, at least in the one i saw...
Mr Creosote!
~:)
I like both, but prefer Monty Python over Benny Hill.
Live from Hollywood Bowl is an absolute must-see (and of course their movies)
ALBATROSS!!
not to forget the massive contribution that MP gave to the internet........http://www.spam.com/
This is like the Imperial Army of Rome going against Alzhar's Babylonian daycare center. Is this really a contest?
Monty Python, by a huuuge distance.
Of course, I've never seen Benny Hill.
Crazed Rabbit
The Python crew kick Benny Hill into a horrible red mess.
This is truly a 'no contest'.
Python by a long way.
Benny Hill stopped being funny when I reached the age of six... still it did have bikini clad women in it.
~D
Splitters!
Definatly my favorite, closely followed by the dead parrot. Favorite line from that show 'we think your(yanks) beer is like making love in a kanoe, it is *CENSORED* close to water'Quote:
