Recap / Frasier 2023 S 1 E 01 The Good Father

Go To

Frasier moves back to Boston after quitting his talk show in Chicago to become a professor at Harvard and to reconnect with his son, Frederick, but finds that he only got his new job due to his previous fame and that Freddy has become distant.


Tropes:

  • Arbitrarily Large Bank Account: Due to the wild success of his talk show, Frasier has enough revenue to become Freddy's new landlord.
  • Dancing Bear: In-Universe. Olivia only hires Frasier on account of the fame of his talk show.
  • Establishing Character Moment:
    • David (Niles and Daphne's son) presents himself as neurotic and eccentric as both his parents.
    • Eve first appears in total Bad "Bad Acting" mode, showing her lack of talent as an actress.
  • Killed Offscreen: Martin's death is alluded to throughout the episode, starting with Frasier coming in from the airport after attending his father's funeral.
