Fawlty Towers - Keep Him In Check

Coming to Special Edition DVD for the first time, its the complete Fawlty Towers collection with all-new commentary from John Cleese! Hot off the runaway success of Monty Pythons Flying Circus, John Cleese embarked on his now-legendary sitcom, Fawlty Towers, creating one of the most memorable and best loved characters in all of British comedy, Basil Fawlty. Basil Fawlty is a much put-upon, hard-working hotel manager whose life is plagued by dead guests, hotel inspectors, and riff-raff. Of course his biggest headache is his little nest of vipers, his nagging wife Sibyl. Together they run their hotel, Fawlty Towers, with a little help from the unflappable Polly and the trainee waiter from Barcelona with marginally more intelligence than a monkey, Manuel.

Still among the funniest shows ever made. It was exhausting just watching John Cleese's manic behavoir as he jumped from dilemma to another. The episode with the Germans is still one that I have seen innumerable times and never fails to make me howl with laughter. It's too bad John Cleese sort of backed away from movies. He made appearences here and there but never seemed to do anything worthwhile after A Fish Called Wanda. I am glad though the Pythons never attempted to resurrected themselves.
