I would of said Four Yorkshireman but that isn't actually a Monty Python sketch although they did do it at one point. Here's my top 3 (in order):
1. Biggus Dickus (Life of Brian)
2. Lumberjack Song
3. Philosopher's Song

EDIT: My bad, tired today

Well, I really liked this one:

And this is the one that got me hooked on MP:

But really, every skit is a masterpiece. I have yet to see anything at all that wins more than MP.

Holy Grail had some amazing one-liners (hell it was all amazing)

But Skits... there are too many to choose

I would say the one with the extremely fat guy exploding
The sperm song
the penis song
and the crucifixion/song moment at the end of Life of Brian

The ministry of silly walks is fantastic. Amazing how high mr Cleese can get his legs up.

It's not that hard, just need a bit of practice and a strong kick.

I'd say Cat Confusers but nobody'd know what I was on about.

So I'll say Ministry of Silly Walks FTW

Yes, we would

And now for something completely different:

So that this isn't a completely off-topic post, I find it near-impossible to choose a favourite, all of Monty Python's sketches are brilliant. If I had to choose, it would either be the Silly Olympics, or the Ministry of Silly Walks...or the Parrot sketch...or the Spanish Inquisition

I'd have to say it's either the Black Knight skit from Holy Grail, The ministry of silly walks, or the dead parrot skit.

All are legendary bits of British comedy.

My favourite is when Smithe runs out of bullets because he's so stupid he can't shoot himself, shoots his cometitor (placing his competitor before himself) and is then forced to club himself to death with the butt of his pistol in order to gain last place. Hillarious.

Python is pure comedy genius.

A personal favourite of mine would have to be the Spam sketch. Gets me every time. :]

I"ve actually never seen anything related to Monty Python. People always tell me how funny he (they?) are.

You have not truly lived until you've seen Python. Just go on Youtube and search Monty Python, you'll get a million or so responses.
