PBS announced today that six new Monty Python specials are in production for broadcast on PBS in 2006. Each of the exclusive to PBS six one-hour programs will focus on one member of the original Monty Python troupe – Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin and Terry Jones – and showcase favorite clips from the group’s television series and movies, mixed with new footage. The five living Pythons – Cleese, Idle, Gilliam, Palin and Jones – will each produce and write their own episode, with the five collaborating on a sixth special to honor deceased member Chapman.
Sweeet.
