In response to his teen’s monosyllabic demeanor, Frasier drags Frederick and Martin on a tech-less camping trip. It’s super plausible that Frasier Crane and Lilith Sternin (Bebe Neuwirth) would spawn such a cerebral and unathletic kid, and also that said kid eventually would rebel with a goth phase. But I make an exception for Frederick Crane (Trevor Einhorn). It’s understandable to wrinkle your nose at the sight of child actors in sitcoms, they with their too-coiffed hair and cloying catchphrases. You can hear the studio audience lose their shit, and, indeed, your shit too will be misplaced. Though Frasier ultimately assures Daphne that his feelings for her are platonic, his back pain medication chooses that very moment to kick in, causing him to reveal that Niles is head over heels for her. Daphne overhears this and misinterprets Frasier’s remark as a romantic declaration. As one of his issues involves Daphne’s upcoming departure from the Crane residence, he muses about how much he loves and is going to miss her. Frasier attempts to soothe his psychosomatic back problems by reciting his difficulties aloud to Eddie. This episode, however, features the gasp-worthy moment where Daphne finally discovers what everyone else has known for the past six seasons. Niles long has mooned (ha ha) after Daphne from afar, but both parties are now engaged to other people in "Back Talk," and Niles has resolved to commit fully to his current relationship. In response, allow me to (grossly) paraphrase the iconic theme song: “ all over my /What is a to do?” CBS Television Distribution The Armani-clad Crane brothers would probably bristle at that simile, and would also, no doubt, quibble with my rankings. 264 episodes may seem like a lot to take on, but Frasier quickly comes to feel as warm and comfortable as Martin’s trademark ensemble of flannel-shirt and elastic-waist pants. It also helps that Frasier and Niles are surrounded by two women and one ex-cop that don’t miss an opportunity to deflate their windbaggery or counter their neuroses with common sense.
But these men also strive to help their patients, to find lasting love, and to earn the approval of a dad from whom they couldn’t possibly be more different but who still commands their respect. What makes the Frasier-watching experience so satisfying is that, yes, the title character and his brother are snobs who kvell over opera recordings and drop French phrases into everyday conversation, and, yes, it’s funny to listen to their highfalutin repartee. Niles Crane, to be exact), and Roz becomes so friendly with the Crane clan that she’s family in everything but genetics. During the show’s run, the once-estranged Crane men regain their closeness, Daphne herself becomes a Crane (Mrs. Though married to the never-seen Maris, Niles quickly develops feelings for Daphne that are obvious to everyone but Daphne herself. In a neighboring mansion lives fellow therapist Niles Crane (David Hyde Pierce), Frasier’s younger brother, who proves even more stuffy and status-obsessed than Frasier. Frasier also gains a housemate in Daphne Moon (Jane Leeves), the kooky British healthcare worker hired to housekeep and lead Martin in his physical therapy exercises. Her opinion of her egg-headed boss is shared by Frasier’s father, Martin (John Mahoney), a retired police officer who moves into Frasier’s condo, dog Eddie and hideous recliner in tow. His producer Roz Doyle (Peri Gilpin) refuses to suffer fools, and certainly not fools boasting a Harvard education and utterly lacking in street-smarts.
Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer) relocates from Beantown to his home city of Seattle and takes a gig as a call-in psychiatrist for the KACL radio station.
Sure, the barflies from Cheers flit into the Frasier universe every once in a while, but from the very first scene of the Frasier pilot, we’re in a totally different milieu-one in which words like "milieu" are frequently thrown around by the charmingly pretentious title character. Though technically a spinoff of the sitcom Cheers, Frasier fandom does not depend on you having any awareness whatsoever about the Boston pub where everybody knows your name. But Frasier, which won a record 37 Emmy awards during the course of its 11-season run and is getting the reboot treatment at Paramount+, never goes out of style. the first five Kidz Bop albums (also the 35 subsequent ones), that Orbitz drink with the little suspended flavor-balls that made it look as though you were chugging a lava lamp.
