Television is bad for your brain

[dgurevich1]

@XylophonEichel In Russia they now call it "The Zombie Box"

[badylekkk]

8 persons have a big problem with their eyes..

[JustSomePerson888]

has anyone else commenting here actually seen other Gilliam Python animations ever

[JustSomePerson888]

'enry!

[leoquis888]

brilliant

[Fiddlewheel]

I feel that the title of this video kinda ruins the punch-line.

[writer125]

How could anybody not like Terry Gilliam and the Pythons? Don't get it. One of my favorite TV shows growing up back in the 70's on PBS. Still a big fan of Terry Gilliam's.

[HamburgerCobolt]

I love all the Gilliam Animations! And wonder why nobody tries to continue this kind of satiric comments of the society with possibilties of today animation programs. The point is of course not to copy that style. Original is always best. You have to carry on this with actual contents and design. Like a relay-racer. 21st century has themes for a lifetime, hrhrhr.

[robonez]

LOL!!! Brilliant!

[PimpMyFahrrad]

Spent my whole life behind monitors and TVs, and my sight is still perfect. It has more to do with your age and genes.

[GnarlyBones]

If television is bad for your eyes...what about computers? THEY BURN!!!!!!!

[1952YOU1320TUBE1952]

@GnarlyBones

Buy your self a pair of Pin hole glass's,there great for long period'sin front of the PC.

[brianartillery]

First time I ever saw this was when I were nowt but a lad, watching it with my dad, one evening when mum had gone out. Dad and me laughed so much at this, we were nearly ill. Still does it today. One of the few 'Python' skits to actually have a punchline. Almost as funny as their 'Gas Cooker' skit.

[JustSomePerson888]

@brianartillery - luxury. back in mah day none of them 'ad punchlines, you 'ad to just make em up yourself, n father would have ye perform them all for t'rest o village on sundays after service. you 'ad it made.

[eviljoker92]

[NaziZombieKiller1991]

Thats funny.

[raullikeskorn]

televilsion!

[mamaluigitoyou]

it's morshu!

[gieelsto]

Eh, this title ruins the point of the joke.

[Ian16545]

Was that an actual BBC newscast in the background there?

[oneminutewithprod]

that's a bit gross

[woofer32]

superb

[monkeybutler20]

more music videos shold this style of art

[moisesparra82]

La telebasura es lo peor que puede haber, adormece nuestros sentidos y no disfrutamos de las cosas reales y tangibles de la vida.

[cookmoore]

television is bad for your eyes, then let's watch this...

on the youtube.

[petitequinte]

The funny part is that this is what watching television is like these days...

[worotan]

@petitequinte Watching TV was always like this.

[ZXRulezzz]

That why I don't watch TV anymore :D

(There is other task for my TV set now - watch PC thru it lol)

[LOCOMOTIONNUMBER1]

Ditto......looking at bloody computers all day.

[kenfig]

i knew i shouldnt watch so much tv

[Tommygun1135]

I only understood the joke at the end. Clever indeed.

[MadameDeJaVu]

@k0ekjebakker Maybe you should read more books, so that you can improve on your grammar.

What you meant was 'I think TV is better than books'.

[k0ekjebakker]

@MadameDeJaVu and all youtubers

hahahaha.... why do you take a random guy on youtube serious? you shouldn't.

[Tommygun1135]

May I ask why I shouldn't?

[k0ekjebakker]

people think im retarded...

happy new year! :D going to party now ^^

enjoy

[Tommygun1135]

Soooooooo... I shouldn't take you seriously because people think you're retarded? Or are you just avoiding the question?

[k0ekjebakker]

hmmm maybe irony? hmmm maybe a mental disorder?

[Tommygun1135]

It's statistically normal to have a mental disorder.

[TheRandomGrabber]

He is trying to say

"I am to stupid and illiterate to read books and perceive the text in my own imagination, so I watch TV since it requires no amount of effort imaginable"

[k0ekjebakker]

I think TV is gooder than books

[zulonz]

Haha, wow. Maybe you should read more to improve your grammar. And books are so much more fun to read, you get to use your imagination.

[abbzisabella]

wow, no wonder, gooder?? haha read some books my friend

[chocolatechick101]

If it wasn't for books, there wouldn't be TV. Probably.

[ysbaddaden2003]

Actually Terry Gilliam is an American, from California, and the other Pythons didn't want him at first for that reason, and then realized he had a similar sense of humor.

[wotrabbitfish]

poor chap really ought return that telly to the cheese shop & have the tobacconist exchange it for some jugged fish

[OrontesRM]

this is what my computer does to my eyes

[karrochan83]

TG's animation are both scary and funny at the same time...

[harsteu]

their british

[Nightmastercool97]

Monty Python is quite a stretch from American comedy.

[Peppepu83]

la televisione fà male... ditelo a berlusconi!

[runrabbit119]

The Irony is delicious

[CowOnSpeed123]

kinda gross but very funny XD

[TheCGIMaster]

[Winobie75]

These animations by Terry Gilliam were my favorite thing about Monty Python, This TV bad for eyes one is one of the funniest.

[insanedrummer89]

i dont get it.

i guess cause its not racist or, making fun of somebody.

[chocolatechick101]

Lol Wtf insanedrummer89

[acla9000]

Hilarious. And I can say no more.

[spamalottis]

laughed til i died

[henrycrumm]

LMAO i love this

[dim432]

of course not if you watch brainac ttb test baby a baby b test it and they were wrong tv is not bad for your eyes. its a myth

[FrownfaceProductions]

My TV did that to me.

[BeakyRed]

i dont get it. why do they say tv is bad for your eyes at the time when it wasnt proved??

[Faawl]

I'm relieved my TV doesn't do that

[haileythecooley]

tv is not bad 4 ur eyes

[Vorscythe]

But evidently it affects your grammar.

[mattacheese3]

lol my grammar is really bad when i speak

[dadeskr]

it can be if you watch loads, not seriously, but cause you blink less when watching tv your eyes can get a bit dried out... nothing a break and maybe some eyedrops wont solve though, the same reason is why people get sore eyes looking at comp screen too long.

[pritch28]

This one is just a complete classic.

[1acount]

very stupid,thats not how tv is bad for u,

[falakisarm]

You idiot, this a comedy.

[1acount]

yes but it uses comeddy to get in your head that tv bieng bad for you is just a joke,and those people that tell you tv is bad for you,then it works like reverse psychology on you,they tell you to do one thing and you do the opposite

[053bss]

You need to lighten up.

[Spitfire0818]

wow you are lame.... not that this is my favorite of comedys by Monty Python, but still chill

[MiK3i]

It's contructive persuasion, its using comedy and means of making the audience laugh as well as throwing in that political 'mumbo jumbo' to attract not only the particular audience who watch Monty Python (mainly the educated type), but also the comedic type!

It's called metaphorical, or metaphore, whatever you wish to say!

[chocolatechick101]

My God you're a moron.

[antontonybekker]

I' am surprized he was still watching at 0:55

[HipHopOtaku]

ROFL!

[TimelordR]

See what happens when dolts across America watch WAY TOO MUCH Reality TV...especially "Dancing With The Stars". LOL!!

[petpoul]

great

[jujamb89]

Guiness beer stole Terry's style for their commercials.

[deetardeded]

@jujamb89 You would only know that if you watched TV. But you know, you shouldn't. Television is bad for your ...

*replays*

[sadeviant]

Terry Gilliam: proof positive that a traumatic childhood can actually be an asset later in life.

[a0d1m]

@sadeviant Huh? Gilliam always describes his childhood being amazing, not traumatic.

[sadeviant]

@a0d1m Tell me all about your Asperger's~

[a0d1m]

@sadeviant nahh
