I saw a bit of an interview with John Cleese. He talked about a "fan" of Fawlty Towers that described Jen's reaction to it perfectly. She couldn't sit down and watch it. It made her so uncomfortable that she'd stand at the doorway of the room, ready to bolt. But she'd still watch the whole show.

I get a bit of that feeling watching it too, it makes me cringe and want to turn away. But I just end up finding it hillarious. Jen falls more on the side of wanting to bolt from the room, yet still finding it funny.
