Are you serious? Father Ted has been hugely popular in the UK (where it was produced) and I'd assume anyone in America who knows about stuff like The Office, Black Adder, or Absolutely Fabulous (which seem to have acquired a bit of a cult following there) will have at least heard of Father Ted. There's been talk of an American remake for years ... the most recent rumour having Steve Martin in the Ted role.
Personally I could never get into it. But that's definitely just me. Most people I know absolutely love it.
