The 29 Funniest Musical Sketches Of All Time (VIDEO)

While counting down the funniest sketches of the 2000s in December, we realized most of our favorites had something in common: They were song and dance numbers. So we set to work finding the best musical sketches of all time and after much infighting came up with this list. The sketch could come from anywhere: A movie, a TV show, the Web, but it had to be more music than sketch (sorry, Buh-Weet). Enjoy!

1) Every Sperm Is Sacred - Monty Python

2) Dick In A Box - The Lonely Island

3) King Tut - SNL

What, no Craig Ferguson parody skits??? I live to see the show opening in hopes of what he will come up with next. Just check out the YouTube clip of his parody of Brittney Spears "OOPS, I did it again". It's friggen hilarious!!!
Of the choices presented here I would have to go with Weird Al's "White and Nerdy" mainly because Donny Osmond was an ingenious choice to include!

Let's reach back a bit. Smothers Brothers. 40 years later and the same problems.

As Pat Paulson used to say, and now there are 3 factions of the Democratic party. The new left, the old left, and what's left.
