I've just never been a fan. It feels dated and corny to me..
You can add me to the roll-call of non-fans - in fact, it's in my list in the 'Top 10 Worst TV Shows' thread.
It is just not funny. Basil Fawlty, as a character, is completely irrational and his tantrums are too OTT. At least when Frasier goes ballistic, he does it with flair!!!
Come to think of it, I don't like anything even vaguely Monty Python related - I couldn't stand '...Flying Circus', any of the MP films and 'A Fish Called Wanda' didn't even raise a smile.
If Jack Bauer ever needed to torture me, he could just play all the above plus 'Naked Gun/Police Squad' on a continuous loop and I'd sing like a bird!!!
(Please note: I do have a sense of humour!)
