The series explores the story of Basil Vaulty, an incompetent hotel owner and hotel manager who is obsessed with the megalomania he lives daily. Basil is not deviating from his job and is an intolerant person trying to make further changes to the hotel. All hell collapses when Basil tries to run the hotel, he is constantly under attack by his wife Sibel and faces various challenges daily.
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 writing team of John Cleese and his then-wife Connie Booth probably put more sweat and brain power into constructing each sublime, chaotic, farcical half hour of Fawlty Towers than many writers expend on a full-length feature film.
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.
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.
The first episode immediately makes the show seem like it'd been on the air for ages...It roots every character in their personality and is as well-written a story as any other.
Fawlty Towers delivers classic British comedy by way of Cleese's delightfully neurotic character, whose attempts to advance his business always backfire in hilarious ways.
While the outlandish actions performed by Cleese make Basil the centre piece of the show, the other actors also deserve a great deal of praise for the roles they uphold within the sitcom.
