I had hoped for more behind-the-scenes on his work that I know best, but pretty much the whole book is his origin story and earliest work with the other MP guys, before they were Monty Python. The storytelling pretty much stops with the first MP taping, although he gives a little post-script on the ...
As part of his narrative schtick in this memoir, John Cleese occasionally engages in exasperated expostulations to his imagined readers, in response to imaginary comments or criticisms from them. In one of those passages, he accuses us of not really being interested in the serious passages of his li...
Ja lieber John Cleese wo warst Du noch mal mit Deinen Gedanken.....Auf jeden Fall überhaupt nicht dort, wo ich Dich erwartet hätte. Wenn ich eine Cleese Biografie lese, will ich wissen, wie der Ritter der Kokosnuss entstanden ist, wie die Sexszenen mit Jamie Lee Curtis waren, wie zur Hölle die Pytho...
[I've gotten behind in my reviews, and I was having a hard time convincing myself to write the next one in order, so screw that, I just moved on to the one I wanted to write about at the moment, and I may or may not ever succeed at filling in the gaps.

"If you are looking for a history of Monty Python this is not the book for you.

So anyway, the first thing I ever saw John Cleese in was Fawlty Towers or A Fish Called Wanda. Can’t remember which, but there it is. I love MP though, and all that. It makes me laugh, Hell’s Grannies and all. A Fish Called Wanda is absolutely friggin awesome, and it’s a shame Fierce Creatures doesn...
I received an advance copy of this autobiography from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.This is a very generous and unexpected autobiography. I say that because most books of these types merely retell the scandals, bask in the highlights, and dish the dirt on the nasty habits of famous peop...
A fun read: What if Superman's pod crashed in the UK instead of the US? Apparently his name would be Colin Clark, and being a superhero would be bothersome and embarrassing for his proper British family.
Fantastic book for kids! So imaginative and creative. Easy read that children will find delightful!Dr. Seuss is always brilliant! His stories and rhymes are fun and entertaining! Some of my all time favorites!! Such a great way to entertain children and get them interested in reading!
