the parking garage episode is frasier getting totally completely wrecked by a nonissue because of his ridiculous hubris, it's like the ur-frasier

plus i think the payoff at the end is p funny


like i said, though, it's long enough and awkward enough that you really don't want to watch it too often

To be fair, I think he'd make a hilarious superhero. Not entirely sure who. Okay as Beast, I suppose. Reed Richards?

"Carbons? Purge? What are you talking about?!"

beast is about as frasier crane as you can possibly be in a mainstream comic book, and the fact that he already has s1 frasier hair probably helped grammar nail the role


seriously though replace "dinner party" with "idiotic experiment that almost kills all of reality" and "radio show" with "blue fur" and they're identical

Yeah the parking garage episode had a great payoff, but it took ages to get there.

Also the spelling bee episode was great:

Niles posted:

I was a little younger than you. I'd been winning numerous competitions, but I was obsessed with one thing and one thing only: the National Championship. The time finally came and there I was, standing on that stage, waiting for the judge to say the final word, and suddenly it happened. It all clicked. All the rules, "i before e", assimilations, etymologies, they all became one. And then, became nothing. In that moment, I realized there was no word I couldn't spell. Competitions didn't matter anymore because I was one with the higher truth that is spelling. So when the judge said that last word, I just walked away.

Freddie posted:

Didn't you care what people said?

Niles posted:

Oh, people said a lot of things that weren't true. "He didn't know the word." "He was scared." "Mafia this..." No, it didn't bother me. Because they couldn't take away what I knew in my heart. You know how to spell, and it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks.

Niles posted:

People, stop please! Look at yourselves. This is wrong. What are words, after all, but a way to communicate, to bring us together? But you, you're using them as weapons! Now, we still have an opportunity to walk away from here as winners, and wouldn't that be the greatest Spell-abration of all?

Frasier posted:

He's right, Son, let's go home.
[They turn and head for the door with Niles.]

John posted:

Yeah, we're all winners. Except for the two cheaters!
[The Crane boys stop, then collect themselves and continue.]

Warren posted:

Hey, you know how to spell "loser"? C-R-A-N-E.
[Again, the Cranes halt a moment, then keep going.]

John posted:

You don't have to worry about ever seeing him again, Son. Chances are he'll end up in a state school.
[Freddie, Frasier and Niles whirl around, rage on their faces.]

Niles posted:

How DARE you! [to Freddie] Can you take him?

Freddie posted:

Yeah!

I can't help but think the Spelling Bee episode inspired the IT Crowd episode with street Scrabble.

Just watched the episode where Frasier dates a supermodel who is working on her PhD. Quite apart from how unbelievable it is that someone like Frasier could land her, I find it even more amazing that he keeps trashy wine like Beaujolais Nouveau in his apartment.

Frasier's dating life was enviable even by 90s sitcom protagonist standards, not that it stops him complaining. Remember the ep where he dates a startup's token businesswoman and ends up hanging out with the trophy wives?

Sam. She was a lawyer, and she was more famous and assertive than him, and he was an idiot to let her/Faye/Mia/and Claire go. Actually all of Frasier's ex lovers were pretty great accept for Kate (because of the acting) and Julia. Those two were almost as bad as Diane.

Fixed that list for you. Patrick Stewart was hilariously perfect for Mr. Frasier.

Duke's daughter and the barfly played by Bridgette Wilson weren't exactly stellar. You are right though, trying to think of all the bad women Frasier dated, and they are significantly fewer in number than the decent ones where he just hosed it up by being Frasier. Although there were a few to be sure.

I love how many of his relationships were blown up by Frasier freaking out over a problem outside the relationship, which he couldn't help but project all over the relationship itself.

This morning I watched the episode where the awful Julia spoils Niles and Daphne's baby announcement and Frasier finally throws her out, but not before she was choking to death and everyone ignored her. One of the better episodes in the faded final season.
