Wouldn’t be caught dead being a Frasier fan and not knowing crucial Kelsey trivia like “is a republican” and “is a huge rear end in a top hat obviously” that’s like Kelsey 101

Kelsey Grammer is a bad person.

He's an awful person who has done awful things and had awful things done to him and suffered awfully. He's like a fillet-o-fish from McDonalds. Every step in the process of making that sandwich and getting it to you is horrendous on so many different levels but goddamn it's good and comforting and enjoyed by people of every strata.

Been said before that the brundlefly of Frasier and It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia is just Kelsey Grammer's actual life.

Having not seen that show in well over a decade, I still partly remember that narration, holy crap.

Also found out recently that Simon Templeman AKA Kain from Legacy of Kain was a frequent guest star on that show.

That episode also contains what's probably my favorite moment from that series. "What's wrong with me? I'm such a loser," Elliott says, turning to two models nearby. "C'mon ladies, let's get your clothes off and take some pictures." He walks away with his head down, the models trying to comfort him.

Three Valentines. Nile sets half the apartment on fire while preparing for a date. Martin and Daphne go out drinking and wallow in their sorrows about being alone. Frasier has a meeting with Cassandra, the station's promo manager, but can't figure out whether it's professional or a date and winds up calling Roz like 17 times to try and figure it out.

Just a classic example of how great Frasier could get when it went full-on farce, much like The Ski Lodge.

David Hyde Pierce is pretty good at physical comedy, I feel the show didn't utilize that enough instead of just having Kelsey yell NILES at him over and over.

To be fair, getting yelled at is an underappreciated comic skill. And David Hyde Pierce is very good at getting yelled at.

The scenes of him trying not to die of terminal lust when Daphne shows up at his place during a heat wave are another great example of this

Rewatched that one 2 nights ago, and was surprised/impressed to learn that it was directed by Kelsey Grammer. So that opening scene was a pretty big flex.

You gotta give it to ski lodge but Moon dance is such a top episode as well. Not even for the comedy but the fake out with Niles spilling his guts, so well executed.

I hope the reboot is good somehow
