You know, not all of Monty Python aged amazingly, but I do give credit to them for ultimately accepting Loretta. Life of Brian, overall, still holds up pretty well. "Yeah you're a woman that's fine whatever - but Loretta?" That's a good joke about queerness that doesn't punch down, I like it.

Also, the older I get, the funnier the PFJ dissenters bit gets. They really did critique the Left decently, although the "What have the Romans ever done for us?" bit, while funny, misses the point I think.

It's actually really weird if you consider what a terf-y nsshole John Cleese became later.

A wealthy leftist turning conservative as he gets old isn't really surprising.

I don't think he was really the major leftist perspective in Python

They predicted all the "look at me" idiots really well.
