Classics!

"No riff-raff!"

The signs:

"Fatty Owls"

"Flowery Twats"


And how about the episode where Mrs. Fawlty showed up with hand-prints on her ample breasts?

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

“The Gods Must Be Crazy” was probably the funniest movie I’ve ever seen.

I always cracked up when Basil saw off Mrs. Fawlty, “Have a nice day, dear..Don’t drive over any mines or anything.”

Yes! And you just reminded me of the episode where Basil couldn't get the auto out of the driveway!

I still chuckle every time I hear the word "Barcelona."

The movie where they drove the dead body of Luke Fuchs by?

"Trust Me!"

“Used Cars” was quite a departure for Kurt Russel, who was best known as a Disney star.

One of the funniest movies ever, I haven’t seen it in years.

FWIW, another terrific movie was “Real Genius.”

I had every one of those shows on today. They are broadcast over the air on “ME TV”.

And the highly underrated Harold Ramis helped write both of them.

Caddyshack and Animal House are some of my favs. Blues Brothers is another great one.
