- Critics' reviews
-
-
"While we can't say we'd ever want to stay at the titular hotel, run by the hapless Basil Fawlty...we sure do enjoy watching him struggle to maintain it."
-
"Although the farce does get a bit out of hand sometimes, Cleese, the master of mugging, is always ready to follow it up with still-another hilarious exercise in outrageousness."
-
"It's difficult to describe the point where personal chemistry, creative genius, and pinpoint comedic timing come together. Like any unique work, it has to be experienced to be appreciated."
-
"The humor would be absurd and childish if it wasn't so genuinely smart and well-constructed, and that's why Fawlty Towers remains one of the most beloved British comedies of all time."
