Why? Who wants this?
I literally have a tattoo of Frasiers dad's chair and the text "I'm listening" tattooed on my arm and I am asking the same question. There is no need for a continuation.
Kelsey Grammer's accountant, probably.
Kelsey Grammer probably? Fuck that guy though.
I enjoyed Frasier, but not because of Frasier himself. I really enjoyed seeing the interaction between him and his brother Niles, along with Roz, Daphne etc.
So if this is just a show about Frasier, then I'm out.
I thought the same when he spun it up the first time without Cheers cast.
I'll give it an episode or two before I pass judgment.
Like others here, it was the rest of the cast I enjoyed most. Frasier was mostly cringe.
I'll watch a token episode to test it, give it a fair shot, but yeah about the same. If you're gonna do a reboot you gotta have everyone on board. Futurama seems to be doing fine, they got everyone. Frasier is missing half the cast.
"Cheers was good because it was an ensemble cast, what's the point of making a show just about Frasier? I'm not gonna watch it if there's no Woody or Norm, what would be the point?"
I'm not saying I think this will be as good/better than the first run of Frasier, but people should at least give it a shot before writing it off with the exact same criticism that was leveled against the show they now love when it was announced 30 yrs ago.
No Niles?
I was a pretty big fan of Frasier so I'll probably try to see at least one episode (when I can get it in Europe), but I don't have hopes up. It seems nobody else does either.
On the other hand, Rodney Trotter? This just seems weird.
I love the original show but there is no way that this isn’t going to suck balls.
Pass: Fuck Kelsey Grammer, he's an asshole.
I am hopeful that this is good, I don't get why people are upset about this. It's streaming, if it doesn't work who cares.
The new song sounds awful. He sounds like he sang it drunk AF.
Also, with none of the other original cast members returning, I don’t see this show going past one season.
Believe it or not, Kelsey, most people didn’t watch the show to see you…
This tells me that he needs money and so does the studio.
No thank you.
...what's with all the Frasier hate in this thread? Let's give it a fair run. If it's not your cup of tea, it's not your cup of tea. But, if it is shite, it is shite. Judge it upon its merits or just ignore it.
Also; no Niles? Wtf... and no returning characters at all? Lame. But let's see where this goes.
I hope he is as drunk and pilled out filming this one as he was during the original
I didn't realise he ever was either of those.
Beer in the trailer, beer in the screen grabs, character has left radio and moved back to Boston...
Shit, is Frasier buying the bar from Cheers?
no mention of niles? david hyde pierce is easily half the reason to watch in the first place
