Frasier

Niles, you must be drunk in this photo, you're kissing an open umbrella!

No, Maris had her sun hat on

My favorite Maris joke was when they were all spying on her (I forgot the exact reason), and they're watching from behind a door.

Roz: "She just put her coat on the coat rack"

Frasier: "Wait... is the coat rack moving?"

Roz: "...……. OH MY GOD!!"

Even in the Cheers years Frasier's pet name for Lilith was "Popsicle"

Oh no I can't stop laughing

Another funny exchange I just remembered.

Frasier: "I would shave my head for you!"

Niles: "A gesture that becomes less significant with each passing year."

Holy shit.

The sexy French ski instructor who was hot for Niles grows up to be Dick Roman

Oh, the lust at the ski lodge episode. That's one of the best episodes they ever did; the way they control who knows what and which characters are where is such an amazingly choreographed dance. With the great capper of Frasier realizing he was the only one not being pursued by someone else.

I like the coffeeshop one, where it's just one conversation Niles and Frasier have in the coffe shop, with other characters coming in and out, done all in Real Time. I thought it was very well-written to hold my attention for the whole episode despite the lack of action.

"Where's my coffee?"

"Weve got a team of specialists working on it"

The best episode is probably the one where Niles accidentally gets Martin stoned out of his eyes and Martin sees Eddie talking on TV

(x5) I hear he also likes the song Desperado.

RIP netflix frasier

Imagine Lilith, Julia Wilcox, Maris, Nora Fairchild and Bebe in the same room at the same time.

Since I assume Woody Harrelson will have no interest in appearing on the new Fraiser revival, I hope they include a gag about Woody Boyd now being the mayor of Boston or governor.

Freddy grew up hot

this seems wrong somehow

New details regarding the Frasier reboot. The one I found most interesting is one of the characters is named David Crane. Which means Niles and Daphne's son will be appearing in this.

The fact that Laura Linney doesn't seem to be involved makes me think her character and Frasier broke up.

Kelsey Gramar is on record as having demanded that a spouse not be in the picture before he agreed to be involved.

Screen Rant discusses "plot holes" regarding Frasier revival. TLDR version: They think it makes no sense that Frasier's son Freddy grew up to be a firefighter, when in the original series he never showed any interest in being one. They also think it's weird that Freddy grows up to be like Martin, when Freddy didn't have that kind of personality in the series.

I guess the writer isn't aware that people change, and you know, change their mind about what their interests are. Especially when you consider the original series ended almost 2 decades ago.

I personally find the idea of adult Freddy being more like Martin kinda funny and ironic.

He's like 15 as of the end of the show too. Very few people know what exactly they want to be at 15 or what they'll actually end up doing.

Little Freddie was kind of not very physically inclined right? Something would have had to have changed quite drastically, as the athletic requirements for EM Ts and Firefighters are pretty strict. It's not impossible, or unlikely enough to be a "plot hole" but it kind of is a surprise.

To be fair, people completely reinventing themselves around that age is also normal. I knew quite a few skinny nerds who became interested in bulking up in college or joined the army and did so.

Yeah, it isn't impossible just unlikely. As long as they address how/why the change occurred it won't bother me at all. It doesn't need to be 1st episode, but they should explain it somewhere in the 1st season.

Fiction isn't reality, so you need to explain things, or it comes off as dumb, like changing a character's performer mid series and not commenting on it.

Reality doesn't have those restrictions.

Wow, Screen Rant really called "a person changed in 20 years" a plothole. That word really means nothing, now. And it's not even like, 25 to 45. 15 to 35 is, without exaggeration, an entire lifetime apart.

Isn't Screen Rant mostly clickbait garbage anyway? They just needed an article about it and that was the easiest to whine about.
