Parrot Sketch Not Included: 20 Years of Monty Python is a delightful and hilarious compilation of sketches that were created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the legendary British comedy group, Monty Python. The show, which was produced by Python (Monty) Pictures and aired in 1989, is titled after a tribute to one of Monty Python's most famous sketches, "The Dead Parrot", which is ironically not included in this compilation.

The host of the show is the critically acclaimed American actor Steve Martin, known for his dry wit, comedic timing, and perfect execution. Martin, a self-professed Python enthusiast, opens the show with a characteristic deadpan tone, speaking of the influence Monty Python had on his own comedic style. His role in the show is not just to introduce the classic Python sketches, but also to share some of his own personal experiences and impressions of the legendary British comedy troupe. This adds a personal and unique flavour to the show, blending fresh insight with nostalgic reminiscence.

Parrot Sketch Not Included focuses primarily on showcasing sketches from the four-series run of "Monty Python
