I don't think the Pink Panther films have dated well. Either that, or I just don't enjoy them as much as when I saw them in theaters on their original runs ... when I was 12.
I still think Peter Sellers was brilliant, and that attempting to put someone else in the role is folly. Though, of course, the irony that mousepod pointed out is that Sellers would never have performed the role if the folly wasn't committed in the first place.
