I love Frasier. I have a buddy who hates it because it's so "pretentious"..... that's 100% the point??
timemac
The only show I have all of on DVD
PressureWashington
more Frasier please
noupvotesforgretchenwieners
Niles and Lilith are my spirit animals.
LesserSam
Still my favorite bit of Frasier ever: https://youtu.be/wk4d7JWn4oA?t=108

I'm listening.

What's new? I'm listening. Feeling blue? I'm listening.

in the 80's I worked at Cheers Beacon st, big Show event coming up, Kelsey shows up late total mess all coked up, Show almost killed him.
joechristo
nice guy, was just partying like a MFer
Skinnnights
One of the best opening scenes was Niles getting ready for a date at Frasier's. A comedic ballet a la Buster Keaton
goodisunpopular
This show spun so differently from Cheers it felt weird and forced when they tried to do crossovers and cameos. Frasier was awesome.
JoshHQ
Pleased they had the foresight to move Frasier to Seattle; far enough away from Boston to avoid too many cameos.
Apelehamamama
Almost like real life.
snipermonkeymc
Which kind of fit though, because Frasier evolved and outgrew his old bar chums and that showed when they were on. Lilith however was good.

Hey baby I hear the blues a callin, tossed salad and scrambled eggs
derekjohn
That rarest of cultural events, a sequel that was possibly better than the original.
didIseewhatIdidthere
Hear, Hear!
delilahviolet
I would imagine it’s the most successful spinoff
bugeyetex
He somehow got to portray the same character for 20 years through 2 shows
blairmichod
"Kelsey, we want to make another show with Frasier." "I'll notify my accountant."
isthishowyoudothis
And a spin-off nonetheless! When have those ever worked, except for Fraiser?
toddthewee
The Jeffersons?
DarthKaiser
Simpsons, Happy Days, Family Matters, The Jeffersons, Angel, Star Trek: The Next Generation (if you count that), etc.
derekjohn
I said rare, not unprecedented.
SJohnson23
All right. But apart from NCIS, The Simpsons, Happy Days, The Jefferson’s, Star Trek TNG and Angel, what have spin-offs ever done for us?
isthishowyoudothis
Apparently I'm not as well versed in tv show history as I thought! But simpsons is a spin-off? Of what?
DarthKaiser
Started out as just shorts on The Tracey Ullman show (a variety show on Fox) for three seasons, then became its own 30-min show after that.
mikeatike
NCIS > JAG
snipermonkeymc
This is very true. In fact I frequently forget NCIS started from a JAG episode.
mikeatike
I vaguely remember there was a joke about Sean Murray as he played different chars in both shows.
IThinkAboutBoobsALot
read it all in their voices. thanks for this
JoshHQ
Likewise. Most welcome.
Ohhhlookaunicorneatingasamurai
Indeed.
delilahviolet
I did too. They all had really great distinctive voices
Contra3IsTheHardestGameEver
Damn good show. K Grammer always kill it everything he does. Boss was the shit.
AquilaJM
He was excellent in The Last Tycoon. Amazon prime show. Well worth the watch.
JoshHQ
Boss really was excellent.
Snooj
Lilith hooking her purse in the door was one of the best moments of television ever aired.
Sugarpandabutt
I adore Niles. And how well you know Maris watching this show without ever seeing her. The writers are genius.
MatrimBloodyCauthon
She's asleep under the guests' coats. She exhausts easily under the pressure to be interesting.
Sugarpandabutt
"You must be drunk in this picture, Niles. You've got your arm around a floor lamp." "Oh, no, that's Maris in her Easter hat."
MatrimBloodyCauthon
The last two nights, I knocked on Maris's bedroom door to wish her goodnight and I was greeted with a chilly silence, so naturally
MatrimBloodyCauthon
I assumed everything was status quo.
noscarletcoat
Any suggestions for best episodes to try?
TellMeImAGoodGirl
All of them
TexTexTex
All
deusmetallum
The one where a brother fucks up, but rather than admit to it, they keep piling on the lies. Oh, that's all of them.
deusmetallum
I actually adore the show for the individual jokes, but the episode plots are all the same and it gets tiresome.
ChuckWeiss
To add to @OP' list there: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mWiPaQ872c. One of my favorite scenes.
noscarletcoat
Not bad, thank you kindly ;p I do think I prefer him to the radio brother
JoshHQ
Start with The Good Son (S1, Ep1!) and go from there. Ham Radio, The Innkeepers & My Coffee With Niles are some of my favourites.
noscarletcoat
Much obliged, I started w Ham Radio, twas hilarious.
punchedinthefacebyamannowdead
Coffee w/ Niles is my fave
JoshHQ
I think it cemented itself as a fave of mine after the final ever episode when Niles says that he'll "miss the coffees". Emotional!
gorgosaurusrex
+1 for Ham Radio, that's my favorite episode. I've seen the whole series at least 6 times though lol.
JoshHQ
"romping with my school chums in the fens and spinnies..." & DHP playing 6 characters. What an episode.
gorgosaurusrex
"Sound of people changing Wangs to Wings"
highoverlordxenu
"I am a victim here, too! Why, not 24 hours ago, I was punched in the face...by a man, now dead!"
dientesdelperro
now who wants pancakes?

MissSmoo
Actually watching the sun Netflix as we speak. Such a freaking great show, I appreciate it so much more as an adult
Squirrelfurkeyboard
It's on US Netflix? I feel cheated.
Jenshk
Wish I had US Netflix. HK Netflix is nothing compared to US.
LtKifKroker
MissSmoo
Damn typos. Lol
OliverClothesoff70
The Big Bang Theory writers could learn a lot from watching reruns of Frazier. THIS is how you write a funny show about smart people.
dumalalee
Smart idiots.
JoshHQ
Never a truer word spoken!
GBshaw
I have a friend who told me once that bbt was a smart comedy. It forever altered my opinion of him.
specklemuffins
Oh god, that show is NOT funny! So glad someone agrees!
Vundergluber
I'm just amazed at the sheer number of clever people who love that show, not realizing they're being laughed *at*, not *with*.
SwashbucklingForJustice
Big Bang Theory is a show about smart people for dumb people. Modern Family is a show about dumb people for smart people.
delilahviolet
Modern Family is so funny, one of my favorites
Kaeldiar
BBT started out pretty great, actually. The first season or 2 were what drew me in...then it started to go downhill :/
delilahviolet
I agree. I enjoyed it in the beginning, but now I can’t watch it
YOUAreTheMagicMan
Oh...oh god...I laughed at these. I used to hate Frasier as a kid. Am I...AM I GETTING OLD?!
poopofdestiny
Oh, the snootiness!
timemac
Oh for godsake Nikes!
youwillneverhatememorethanialreadyhatemyself
Why do you hate that brand? More an Adidas type?

Reebok for life

Damn you Typo gods!
PineconesAndGravy
Yes! Do more of these!m
NomDeImguerre
"Coronners have their own bars?" still gets a laugh out of me.
CatPresident
Niles: "Well I never!" ... Fraser: "No, you ALWAYS!"
JoshHQ
Frasier: "Have you seen my money clip?"....Niles: "Rarely!"
shadowex3
I knew I was officially entering middle age when this show started not just being funny but hitting close to home.
Aldryic
Just wait until you start relating more to Martin.
LtKifKroker
I already have a recliner I refuse to give up.
mmurrbles
That's the only person I've ever related too.
ChuckWeiss
I first watched it when I was 23, and it felt the same. It's just a very well written show.
SpookyMittens
Shit. . . I hit middle age when I was 12 then.
Nikolai5
I used to watch this every morning before school.
specklemuffins
Damn... I relate to it and find it hilarious and I'm only 26...
InfinitusEquitas
I uhm.... well fuck guess i hit middle age in high school.
mkyner
A lot of us did.
JudgeVegas
#1 Frasier looked a lot better after stopped wearing his left-over hair long.
PinkEater
"Left-over hair" +1
momemes
lol
AnActualClown
My bf is balding with long hair. We named it the Skullet. It is terrible.
phunkiejunkie
We use "skullet" too! Phil Collins had one for years.
blairmichod
Hey, Benjamin Franklin pulled it off!
FragileReality
Kelsey Grammar is an old man crush of mine. He was the perfect Beast; just, seriously frickin’ nailed it.
GoochoLibre
I would give body parts to sing a duet with that man. Swoon.
Dontdeprivemeofmydelusion
Agreed. Love Frasier, as well.
DadDoom
I love his bit in 30 Rock. Just so hilarious.
GnomeMode
Mmhmm
Hipstersayswhat
yeah something about a balding man wit long hair makes him look more bald?
StAnonymous
Unless he has long hair AND a long beard. Then he looks like a high fantasy blacksmith.
JoshHQ
Especially with the broad shoulders of a marine....

Someone REALY knows their Frasier.

I used to think this was a euphemism for food poisoning. Took me years to realize how utterly wrong I was.
