John Cleese je široko uznávaný pre svoj prínos k britskej komédii, najmä prostredníctvom svojej práce na ikonických skečových reláciách a sitkomoch. Jeho výrazný komediálny štýl často skúma absurdity každodenného života a spoločenské konvencie s ostrou vtipnosťou a intelektuálnym humorom. Cleeseove výkony sa vyznačujú bezchybným načasovaním a jedinečnou schopnosťou stvárňovať nezabudnuteľné, často excentrické postavy. Jeho vplyv na komediálne písanie a vystupovanie naďalej rezonuje, čím sa jeho dielo stáva meradlom pre satirický a pozorovací humor.
