Not only will John Cleese be in the new version, but he's enlisted Rob "Meathead" Reiner as one of the producers.
Like the Frasier renewal, there are a lot of questions surrounding this comeback - like whether it will tarnish the brilliant regard in which the original is held by so many fans.
"The new Fawlty Towers is set to explore how Cleese’s cynical, over-the-top and misanthropic Basil Fawlty navigates the modern world. With plot details largely under wraps, the series will explore the relationship between Basil and a daughter he has just discovered he had as the two tempt fate and team up to run a boutique hotel."
No word yet on exactly when you might get to see it or who will be showing it. I guess we'll all be wait-ers. So, go and be a wait-er in there!
