I like the one where they need some repairs and Frasier's dad hires none other than Tim "the toolman" Taylor, and becomes miffed when he and Frasier become fast friends.

the littlest prince posted:I just got into season 8 and all the negativity about it must have drastically lowered my expectations because I can't see the dropoff in quality Hindsight has been very kind to the show. Without the inflated expectations that accompany any good TV show during its run, the final seasons feel like a gradual denouement rather than the quality falling off a cliff.

He only sees him in the show when something really weird happens. They always have conversations about other times they spent time together or all the time they spent training for a spelling bee and stuff. Maybe they'll make a Frasier reboot about Freddy being a ~35 year old police officer with his goth ex-wife and his new romantic interest (a police psychiatrist).

I need to retract my opinion on season 8, it's not good It's incredibly, amazingly good It's a constant, non stop tour de force of home run after touchdown after gooooooaaaaaaal (and three point shots)

If 90's Bebe Neuwirth is your thing then you'll also enjoy 90's Vicki Lewis so you should watch S2E6 of Newsradio and then all the rest of Newsradio.

Hey! This is a Frasier thread. If you wanna talk about Newsradio and Dave Foley and his amazing performances in The Kids in the Hall and Blast From the Past then start another thread! Actually, we probably should: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhrnMbhMgmw

All I remember is at the end, Lilith gets into a fight with someone (maybe it was Frasier) and someone says, "I got 20 bucks on Morticia!" Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:Listen I started this thread okay my Frasier fan credentials are in order. I love me some Frasier! It's just hard for Newsradio not to come up in a discussion about any sitcom because it's the pinnacle of the genre. This is true. The show was genius. "The Public Domain" with Bill singing political rag-time was the peak of the show.

Frasier fun fact: all of the principal actors from Cheers have made a guest appearance on Frasier except Kirstie Alley because psychiatry plays heavily in the show and that's kryptonite to Scientologists.

But...but...there's a scene in Frasier where Frasier is at his piano playing the Wings theme! This is like George watching Mad About You, even though there was a crossover and the shows exist in the same universe.
