Something that may be significant.
Michael Palin and John Cleese are on this episode of Saturday Night Live. (Yes, they are the funniest thing going, they're Palin and Cleese.)
What sketch do they get put to do, on SNL, with the top writers of SNL available?
The Parrot Sketch.
The Monty Python one.
Though I don't remember, did the original end with Michael Palin inviting John Cleese back to his place?
So, the best the writers of SNL can do with star comedic material like John Cleese and Michael Palin is resurrecting Monty Python. (But then again, what's funnier than an ex-parrot? Whose metabolic functions are of interest only to historians? And who has ceased to be?)
