Frasier is being rebooted...

The hit 1990s US TV show Frasier, which starred Kelsey Grammer as a pedantic psychiatrist with his own radio show, is set to return.

Grammer confirmed the show's revival saying: "I gleefully anticipate sharing the next chapter in the continuing journey of Dr Frasier Crane."

There has been no confirmation that other members of the original cast will also return.

Frasier remains one of the US's most successful TV sitcoms.

It ran for 11 seasons - between 1993 and 2004 - and won 37 Emmy Awards, including five for best comedy series.

"There has long been a call from fans for its return, and that call is now answered," David Stapf, president of CBS Studios, said.

The series is set to be aired on the new streaming service Paramount+, although no date has been given for when audiences might expect to be able to watch it.

Dr Frasier Crane first appeared in another hit TV show, "Cheers", and the spin-off series charted his return to his hometown of Seattle to care for his cranky father, played by John Mahoney who died in 2018.

The show also followed Frasier's relationships with his brother Niles, played by David Hyde Pierce, English housekeeper Daphne Moon, played by Jane Leeves, and Frasier's producer Roz Doyle, played by Peri Gilpin. It is not known if they will return.

In January, it was announced that another hit show from the 1990s, Sex and the City, would also be returning.
:worry: @ the fact they've announced it without confirming anyone other than Grammer... and it really will suck without Mahoney :( why can't they just leave classics alone...

"Dr Frasier Crane"


Endless Story lines,
with that character.
It would need Kelsey to work.

[Won 37 Emmy Awards, including five for best comedy series.]

I hope they have Niles, Daphne, and Roz.

It will not be as good if Kelsey Grammer is not in it.

And without Mahoney as Frasier's dad... nope.

Cheers was funnier

Hmm I dunno, it's not paricularly dated or anything.

I like to watch it of a morning if it doesn't conflict with work or whatever! Though my mum says I sometimes act like Dianne :fist:

The new Frasier will air on Paramount Plus (USA)


https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-r...aded-with-risk



[So the writers’ room will presumably start
by asking such questions as: where is Frasier,
aged around 70, in 2021, and with whom?
Are Niles and Daphne still married? Their son,
David, now late teens,
offers another potential new strand.
Frasier was (in line with its times) a very white show,
so diversity will have to be introduced somehow.
And, since Frasier was last on screen,
the real America has had eight years
of Obama and four of Trump as president.
What has the character made of those?
That might really give Kelsey Grammer
something to act with.]

No they can update the story

For example.

I thought you'd be excited.

GoldHeart 26-02-2021 12:22 PM

Why what's the point

Calderyon 19-07-2022 08:19 PM

Spoiler:


^ Fan Made trailer.

My apologies for the misunderstanding.

Should have known it was too good to be true. Very well made though.

Vanessa 19-07-2022 08:26 PM

Great. Love the show.

Spoiler:

I do not think it's going to be a comedy based on the trailer...

If you expect it to be the sitcom that ran from 1993-2004, you are going to be very disappointed.


A misunderstanding.

I absolutely love Frasier. I'm not sure rebooting it will work however.

If it's done exactly like in the trailer, it might.

That’s a faker fan-made trailer. Those scenes are from other movies that the cast were in.

The Slim Reaper 19-07-2022 09:47 PM

Frasier was trash.

Well that's a bummer.

Very well made.

EDIT: Ah yes, he did do that show called "Boss". So his scenes are from that (have seem extremely little of it). The others i do not know.
