He was in rehab after flipping his Dodge Viper, yeah. The intro bit with him was filmed later. Thankfully the show was on hiatus for 3 weeks anyway.

The sad thing about him is that he now claims to be a "reformed alcoholic," and after a few decades of sobriety he now drinks every day. :smith:

Seriously you all, read the cannibal spec scrip linked a couple pages back.

Yes. It's loving pitch-perfect and had me guffawing at a few points. It's a farce on the levels of "Ham Radio." The only thing missing is Martin going "Aw, jeez."

God, that Claire / Lana subplot was so loving banal. I mean, Jean Smart did a great job playing Lana, but the character was so loving nauseating and then it gave us a seemingly endless run of episodes with loving Kirby. God.

Get the everloving gently caress out of here. The only tolerable members of Daphne's family were Brian Cox, Richard E. Grant and Robbie Coltrane (like gently caress if I can remember their characters' names, though).

I thought she was pretty funny, and lived up perfectly to Daphne's stories about her.

An actually bad character is Noel, and that campy gay producer that was in one episode.

All the Noel jokes were broken down to their component elements, mashed together into a slurry, and used to create TBBT.

The only time Noel was funny was in the Radio Drama episode.

Yeah, "Ham Radio" is a perfect Frasier farcical episode, along with "The Innkeepers."

Daphne's mom wasn't really that bad, just unnecessary. Filling in the cracks of Seasons 9-10 with Moon family nonsense was a bad decision.

She was actively antagonistic and basically derived pleasure at seeing Daphne fail or work as her personal maid?

I liked Kirby and Simon. Hated Daphne's mom and Cam Winston though. Probably more a product of the show's general decline than anything specific about him, I guess.

Niles and Frasier driving around in the Space Coupe would have owned so hard.

Roz is from the moon and has a space baby with Bulldog.

I liked Kirby too. Having Frasier mentor an amiable fuckup was a good concept. Tying it to yet another romance doomed to failure (Kirby's mom) was the problem.

Cam Winston worked better as Frasier's unseen nemesis than what we got on camera. It did give us Martin and Cam's mom loving with them though; that was worthwhile.

Frasier saying Cam Winston's name ended up being more memorable than anything about the actual character himself
