Any fans. Just rewatched all the episodes and couldn't stop laughing. John Cleese's physical acting is an absolute master class. If so, your favourite episodes.

It's my favorite show of all time, Cleese is brilliant and the entire conception of Basil is genius - hard working but foolishly so and snobby, privileged, slightly "ist" in everything - racist, sexist, egoist, lol. The Germans and Communication Problems are my faves.

I loved the spoon inspector one. The whole sequence in the restaurant is flat out brilliant.

IS THIS A PART OF YOUR BRAIN?!
We even watched this as kids (my mom is English) and that was a common saying in the household whenever someone fucked up.

It really is absolutely fantastic and one of the handful of things with a 'greatest of all times' reputation, across art-forms, that is worthy of its reputation.

More than 40 years after the second and final season drew to a close, Monty Python star Cleese is set to write and star alongside daughter Camilla Cleese, in news that will bring joy to a generation of British comedy fans.
The new series will explore how Cleese’s over-the-top, cynical and misanthropic Basil Fawlty navigates the modern world. Plot details are largely being kept under wraps but the development will bring the story forward to explore Basil’s relationship with a daughter he has just discovered he had, as the pair tempt fate and team up to run a boutique hotel.
