I picked up the complete collection on DVD (I know, not VHS) several years ago. I have most episodes on tape too, recorded off of our local PBS station.

Our little public TV station in Dallas, KERA-13, was responsible for introducing Monty Python to the USA in 1974. Station management then wasn't sure what the audience reaction would be.

From Wikipedia... "In 1974, it [KERA] became the first television station in the United States to broadcast episodes of Monty Python's Flying Circus, and is often credited with introducing the program to American audiences."

Used to come on every Sunday night at 10 PM.
