Notes

American remake of the 1976-79 UK series Fawlty Towers, with Arthur's character in the Basil Fawlty role.

On-screen title is only "Amanda's" but some online references give it the longer title Amanda's By the Sea.

Cancelled after 10 episodes of 13 produced

 I liked Amanda's much better than Fawlty Towers.

One episode I remember and couldn't stop laughing about was when Amanda and her crew were auditioning acts for an upcoming talent show, and one of the acts was a dancing chicken (Amanda commented, "Her splits remind me of Ann-Margret"). Then the night of the talent show a customer orders chicken fricassee, and Amanda and her workers wonder where the star disappeared to. The customer eventually finds a drumstick in his chicken fricassee with a legwarmer on it!

I can only hope CBS (who now owns Viacom, who produced Amanda's), Shout! Factory, or some other DVD label might release a DVD box set of this series. Maybe one or all three of the remaining episodes of Amanda's ABC neglected to air will have some even funnier moments.
