A hotel by the sea is run by a stressed and moronic lunatic who can't seem to please his guest, has a shaky marriage with a cruel and self-centered woman, and a Spanish porter who can barely speak English. Fortunately he has an intelligent and attractive maid to help him out of the various situations he gets into.

Sybil Fawlty:
[Sybil suggests a way to get rid of Manuel's rat] Perhaps it would be simplest to have him put to S-L-E-E-P.
Basil Fawlty:
Who? Him or the rat? I could get a discount if we get them both done.
Manuel:
[suspiciously] Spleep?
Continuity: The room numbers in the hotel frequently changed from episode to episode.

With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
