Honorable mention: Niles and Frasier vie for president of their wine-tasting club; Niles wants to belong to a snooty, exclusive men's club; Frasier throws Julia out of his apartment; Frasier dates a supermodel but no one believes him; Frasier's first wife,"Nanny G" returns; Niles and Frasier remove a dead seal from outside Maris' beach house; Frasier dislikes the caricature drawing of him with a massive forehead, Bebe is the Devil; (and) Frasier can't stop seeing his new love as his old gym teacher.

Frasier was one of a kind. There wasn't a show like it before and there hasnt been one since. Perfect writing and one of the greatest ensembles ever!

[@thegood9]

Well, the NEW 2023 version comes surprisingly close. It's too bad almost no one has seen it. It has the same clever writing and quick with from Kelsey, and some of the side characters are actually quite good.i WATCH 2023 Frasier NOW!

[@kendallrivers1119]

@@thegood9 No thanks. The new one doesn't hold a candle and just plain didn't work. I'll stick with the one and only Frasier that's an iconic masterpiece.

[@thegood9]

@@kendallrivers1119 did you watch the entire season? I STRONGLY recall when the original came out, NO ONE liked the characters. The public nearly hated the show, despising most everyone on it, and wondered why they even wasted time on a "spinoff" of such a great show like "Cheers". So, I wouldn't be so quick to write this one off. The writing is spectacular, and the characters will grow on people.

[@kylewashington1841]

​@@thegood9I have watched every episode of Frasier at least 20 times a piece over the last 30 years. I've got zero qualms with the new show. Watched every episode. You get to know characters in the 1st season of any show. It really takes 4 years or 40 episodes I would say to gain mainstream. It's not completely woke in the 1st season but it could easily be ruined by the executives. Kelsey Grammer is a national treasure no matter what he pursues. David Hyde pierce also carried a heavy load. If him and Daphne arent in season 2 it could be a problem.

Long ago we could watch Cheers, Frasier and Northern Exposure all, on Tuesday night. After work, considering the news and life back then, these were the laugh therapy sessions you needed. To top it off, there was Carson, with his headlines, 'Karnak' and animals on his desk, or in his arms. Tuesdays were the best, of the good ol' days. We needed that!

I love Frasier! I have several episodes that I love to watch, but there's one where Bebe, Fraiser's agent, ends up spending the night with him, and Niles comes to the door. Bebe answers it and invites Niles in for breakfast. Niles rings the bell again, as if he's not seeing that!! I love the entire cast, but there's something about Niles and his humor that gets me all the time! Lol 😄 And also, on the episodes when Niles is saying a little too much, and Fraiser yells at him to shut up! Too funny! 😂😂😂

They didn't have the episode I was looking for. The one where Frasier says, "Oh, I'm sorry, was I snippy? I didn't realize it was too much to ask that there not be gunplay in my living room!

Frasier is by far the #1 show of all time, Friends use to be but for 15+ years my wife & I jump in bed around 830/9 & fall asleep to reruns.

We can NOT wait for the Frasier Reboot..Even though itll be a different show, Frasier was a different show from Cheers.. we are stoked

[@abarakadabaras]

Exactly! Frasier is a test to intelligence and IQ

[@kendallrivers1119]

I'm curious what you think of the reboot now that it's been out ? I heard it isn't very good and isn't doing well viewership wise. Sad but not surprising. Magic rarely repeats and lacking David Hyde Pierce, Jane Leeves, Peri Gilpin and John Mahoney killed many people's interest.

[@mysticricorok8481]

@kendallrivers1119 i went into it realizing it wont be as good as Frasier the original. Ive read mixed reviews where some critics hate it and some love it. The original is my all time fav show, but this one i like. I think itll get better and better as i wasnt a big fan of first 2 seasons of the original one. Niles/Daphne son is annoying tbh but i like everyone else and think itll become really good. Have u seen it? Thoughts?

For me, the episode "Frasiers got to have it" was one I would have included...but when it comes right down to it, there were so many great episodes, they could have isted the top 40, and still it would be missing something great from the series. I think we should suggest a "Frasier get together party!"

All sitcom storylines are loosely based on the structure of Ancient Roman Theatre, specifically the comedies since that's what Roman's liked best. But Frasier is the one sitcom that comes closest to and adheres to the comedic structure of roman comedies. It's so interesting to see that we haven't changed all that much.

Why it took 7 seasons for Niles and Daphne to get together? I'll never know it was so frustrating. They're so good together. I'm on season 7 and loving every moment.

[@claire___]

I'm on season 8. I remember watching week to week when it ran. Great writing and acting.

[@sitcomchristian6886]

Some argue that it was actually the end of the show when they finally got together. It took away the tension and a good running gag. Personally, I think the show made good use of it, but once they had a kid I felt like they were reaching a bit. It's a testament to how lovable they were together that the audience kept rooting for them, despite them breaking up Niles' marriage and leaving poor Donnie at the alter, who had been nothing but a good guy.

[@jccota08]

It was part of our ongoing interest in the show! I think it was a good call

[@kreativepulp8760]

It's a slow burn romance. Daphne was too dense because she always saw herself as the house help and wouldn't have understood or justified "Dr. Niles Crane's" interest in her. Niles subconsciously married for money and power. It took him many years of emasculating circumstances and public humiliation to break social rank and own up to his feelings for Daphne. It is really well written to accommodate every possible fork in both their roads.

[@BoredBingewatcher]

It’s disgusting that Frasier and media in general support this idea that one-sided feelings will eventually turn into reciprocation. Especially with how creepy Niles was with her he absolutely didn’t deserve to end up with her, and given that in season 7 he finally seemed over her when with Mel. Mel, who is a lot more compatible and realistic for Niles, with all her 'negative traits' being present with Niles as well.
