Been rewatching. Most of the stuff holds up, the stuff that doesn't is hilariously inappropriate for 2017, and then there's the stuff where I'm not sure it ever was appropriate

"Well, you were the one who spent 30 minutes looking for that weird candleholder"

"It's a menorah, Roz"

How the hell you grow up and not learn what a Menorah is? And don't say "the deep south"

I think the fact that some of the humor is inappropriate for today just adds to it. It helps that censors were stricter back then, so there's some really dirty jokes that are wrapped in really elaborate clean deliveries, and I love it.

It's like how the first Shrek movie had a bunch of jokes that had pretty R-rated implications or double-entendres, but they also worked perfectly as kids' jokes. Nowadays I feel like that stuff is either shoehorned in a lot more blatantly, or in the case of network TV it's just straight-up raunchy and loses some of the impact.

Apparently there is a Kelsey Grammer sex tape but it's of questionable cultural significance and thus has never been publicly made available

Yes, but it was basically David Hyde Pierce playing a psychotic murderer version of Niles Crane which isn't too much of a stretch for the original character. Niles always looked like he was about to snap.

Niles could have played the villain on Jessica Jones quite well.

This is why I think it's required viewing for Frasier fans.

If you ever wanted to watch Niles pantomime loving a woman in the bathroom then it's a must watch.

Best dramatic scene in the whole series. I don't know what they had for breakfast that morning, but they didn't show acting chops like that before or after.

My little brother and I watched it on netflix a few years ago only because of its cover and we saw Niles. We spent the whole movie calling him Niles and the movie owned. Then we felt kinda bad cause we realized he'll never outlive that role :(

I'm currently watching the episode where the ski instructor thinks Niles is gay, which is pretty funny cause the actor is but the character isn't.

Though I guess that wasn't intentional at the time, since IIRC he wasn't out then?

Anyways, I "LOL"ed

Someone's forgetting the scene where Frasier tells Niles to have a seat because he's panicking about his divorce and he asks Frasier "Where?" and goes into why each seat is special to him and Maris in someway...obviously that so sinks with in moments because we're not supposed to want them together, but still. Good scene.

the most :smith: i've ever seen kelsey on a talk show was when the sex tape came up and he described it as a sad, out-of-shape, middle-aged man having less than mediocre sex with a younger woman that no one should ever have to watch of their own free will

i've never seen someone laid so low by their own bad sex
