Steineded How sad is this?

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

mariebekkevold I absolutely love this show. The humor is excellent and the acting is amazing.

justinwhitt I recently started watching this show for the first time in Netflix and I am in stitches from laughing so much. Between the great writing and Kelsey Grammar's delivery this show will leave you laughing the whole way through. This show has become one of my new favorites and I'm sure any viewer would find it making its way into their top list too.

ReganRebecca I first watched Frasier during its initial run. I had never seen Cheers, but my mom had been a fan, so together we tuned in to Frasier and were disappointed when it came to an end. All these years later I've finally decided to give it a rewatch and I'm completely surprised that it managed to hold up as well as it did. The show is mainly about its titular character, a psychiatrist named Frasier Crane who has a radio show in Seattle and lives with his aging widowed father, Marty Crane after an injury in the line of duty forced him to retire. Marty, a salt of the earth type guy, often chaffes against his snobbish effette son, and his younger son, Niles Crane, a man so dandyish he makes Frasier look like a brute. Rounding out the cast is Frasier's radio show producer and eventual best friend, Roz Doyle, and Marty's live-in physical therapist/housekeep Daphne Moon. It's an easy show to watch, the plots are relatively simple, most episodes work as stand alones and there aren't too many long term plots. But it's also a joy to watch because these are characters who really love each other, with real relationship and connections on the line. There's not a weak actor among the main cast, but the stand out will always be David Hyde Pierce as Frasier's brother Niles. Does a more perfect casting exist? Not only is he physically similar to his show-brother Kelsey Grammar, but he is absolutely hilarious as the elitist, dandyish Niles Crane. A great show to watch, that manages to stay consistently great over the many seasons.

besyuziki It's very easy to criticize a long running show for being "formulaic", "predictable" or "self-referential", so how can one of the most formulaic, predictable and self-referential shows of all time be so wonderful? How can it pertain such high quality and professionalism from the first days of pre-production to the very last scene of its finale? The reason Frasier is predictable or self-referential is not sloppiness or laziness. It's the consistent writing and the organic, ever developing characters. Just like real people, sometimes you expect the characters to act in certain ways, and they do. After watching all eleven seasons of the show, you can talk about one of the five main characters for hours, like you're talking about one of your best friends. They are not idealized. They are not perfect. What they are is human... except for Eddie.While noted psychiatrist and radio personality Dr. Frasier Crane is pivotal to the plot of most episodes, the balance (or lack thereof!) between the five main characters, sometimes Frasier's rivalry with his younger brother Niles, sometimes his conflict with his retired blue-collar father Martin, is the essence of the show. Daphne, Martin's live-in physical therapist, is often the negotiator between the Cranes. Frasier's producer Roz is arguably the least developed main character, but she is sometimes integral to the plot and she can be quite a scene stealer. This powerful ensemble of five is accompanied by equally brilliant support characters such as Bulldog, Bebe, Gil, and of course Lilith.On an objective scale I would probably give it 8 or 9 stars, because it inevitably loses its magic toward the end, especially after the resolution of the "will Daphne and Niles ever get together" subplot, but even at its worst, it is consistently funny and tasteful with very little amount of disappointing fillers. From the casting to the acting and writing, Frasier is arguably the most successful spin-off in TV history, and even without taking its parent show Cheers into consideration, it manages to stand on its own and it will always be one of the best situation comedies of all time.
