What makes this so funny is the sincerity and deep emotional feeling he puts into the Klingon Language. Damn, this show was good.

Frasier should've concluded the blessing by making a Vulcan's Salute, then said 'live long and prosper'! Since the salute originated as a Jewish greeting, it seems very appropriate 🖖

The Klingons would say it's most beautiful in the original Klingon! 😂 Worf is Jewish (at least his human parents are), so this gets a pass.😊

[@JuriAmari]

The fact that Kelsey Grammer made a Star Trek TNG cameo before this, did a hilarious sketch celebrating Voyager’s release after, and his Klingon being considered linguistically correct (not only by the kid in this episode but also Wired’s accent coach) makes this episode so much better!

Rayyan Chami Around 1700, two German playwrights translated the major plays of Shakespeare into German, and they are the versions Germans still use to this day.

[@mindcircus1985]

It's been on Channel 4 continuously in the UK ( not sure where you're from mate ) since 1994, where now... every single Monday to Friday morning it repeats and I've watched it 🔁, about 5 times and It STILL tears laughter out of me every time 😄. 28yr runtime🤯 😂. You're spot on👌🏼. One of, if not the best sitcom/s ever created 👏🏼 🤜🏻🤛🏻 🥳

[@lizclegg7556]

This was one of my favourite Frasier episodes (up there with Ham Radio and The Ski Lodge). The revelation that the speech is in Klingon is absolutely hilarious when you watch the whole episode and know the backstory.

[@aneamarlivana172]

One of my favorites too...up there with the dead seal on the beach at Maris's beach house and the one where everyone is trying to impress Daphne's ex-boyfriend. Martin's speech about how he's a retired astronaut and injured his hip when moon rocks fell on him is hilarious. Of course, for me the best episode is the one where Niles and Daphne finally get together.

Ironically, Kelsey Grammer actually had a guest starring role in the TNG episode "Cause and Effect" just before Frasier began. The beard and the maroon jacket uniform he wore for the Bateson role suited him well. Qapla'!

[@dianajetson8914]

A blessing is a Holy ritual that honors God. This to me is offensive and I am not even of the Jewish faith. It's like they are poking fun of the Jewish language and the Jewish religion and customs. It's sad that comedy is used to desensitize bullying of minorities. Suddenly, people get angry with minorities who are upset or angry or reactive to these offensives which others find petty and funny because they have been desensitized with comedy with TV shows. It's sad, it's an attack on religious freedoms. It's a glorification of bullying of others.

[@Fatherofheroesandheroines]

You have no sense of humor. The whole point is that Frasier gets the wrong language off of a bad source who tells him it's Jewish. It's basically making fun of people trying too hard. Get over yourself snowflake.

[@jenniferhiemstra5228]

You clearly have never seen this episode of Frasier…

[@sherritremblay8282]

Oh stfu you pontificating windbag

[@aneamarlivana172]

They are not poking fun at the Jewish religion. You really do need to see the entire episode. Frasier wants to give a blessing in Hebrew at his son, Freddy's, Bar Mitzvah, so he asks a Jewish acquaintance, Noel Shemsky, who is also a big Star Trek fan, to write out the blessing in Hebrew for him. Noel then asks Frasier if he would do him a favor in return and go to a Star Trek convention and get William Shatner's autograph. Frasier thoughtlessly never makes it to the convention, and Noel is not happy, but he writes out the blessing anyway, of course not telling Frasier that he's written it in Klingon rather than Hebrew to exact a bit of revenge on Frasier. There is no making fun of the Hebrew language and the Jewish religion or the Bar Mitzvah ceremony. The whole episode is about how Frasier, who is not Jewish, wants to honor his Jewish son (raised by his mother, Frasier's ex-wife) by reading a passage in Hebrew at the ceremony. The fact that the son gets the respect of a kid (the one who translates the Klingon into English) with whom he's always had a conflict is a nice bonus...made even nicer because the kid thinks Freddy has a very cool dad.
