The absolute pinnacle of comedy. It will probably never be surpassed.

An unmatched mixture of simple stories, physical comedy, hysterical outbreaks, brilliant dialogues, recurrent gags and timeless jokes and lines.
"The Germans" might be the best comedy episode ever - anyone who saw it remembers it.

I watch these 12 episodes over and over again! They never get old!!!

This show has made me laugh since I first watched it. I was a Paramedic first responder at the Pentagon on 9/11 and was forced to retire with PTSD in 2008. I was still battling with depression in 2020, and my doctor asked me what was the funniest thing I ever saw. I replied, “Fawlty Towers, of course…”. So one of my prescriptions was to watch episodes on YT starting in November of 2020. 😊 And man, has it helped me start to laugh again! Thanks to the cast, and to the YouTubers that provided them! — J. ‘Doc’ Lykins, Paramedic (Ret.)

As Americans, my husband and I watched “Fawlty Towers” on PBS (I believe it was in the late 80s, early 90s, can’t quite recall), and enjoyed it immensely!😂 I am so glad I have the show on DVD!🤗

My late father & I first saw the "car thrashing" scene one evening, after having spent a long, unsuccessful day working on my ancient car. We  laughed ourselves sick. It turned a  lousy day into laughter. The next day, we approached the car with a new attitude (vs. a branch) & were ultimately successful. Thanks, John!

Dad's Favourite show. Brings back many happy memories. One of a kind to be treasured

It's the only comedy show I can watch over and over again and still laugh even though I know what's coming next.

My brother was stationed in England in the early 80s and introduced Fawlty Towers in '84, so incredibly hilarious & it never gets old after all the years.

Flying Circus, Fawlty Towers, Yes Minister,
Brilliant British  series

Michelangelo painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, Mozart wrote his Requiem, Rembrandt painted the Night Watch, Freddie Mercury made Bohemian Rhapsody and John Cleese/Connie Booth made Fawlty Towers. The mother of all sitcoms.

Flowery Twats ! Still makes me laugh  43 years later

Timeless. Faulty Towers will still be hilarious in 100 years.

Fawlty Towers was my 78 yr old grandmothers favorite show! She watched them religously every Sunday night and would laugh and laugh and laugh!❤

This show was one of those greats that just never gets old. Oh happy days.

When Basil attacked the car with a tree branch because it wouldn’t start.I lost it,brilliant

“You have rats in Spain don’t you or did Franco have ‘em all shot?”

"Yes you did, you invaded Poland!" The all-time funniest line, I swear....

To this day Our whole family instantly uses  Manuel’s “Que?” whenever someone says something confusing at the table.

Nothing has ever equaled Fawlty Towers for sheer comedic genius.  People will be watching and laughing at this show long into the future.
