Basically all of them. Although I guess the ones from season 8 & 10 aren't really up to par.

"High Holidays" is season 11 and its still amazing

If you skip an episode, okay that's great, but why bring it up if you're avoiding it? You should only talk about it if you're going to watch it :o:

It's like if I noticeably kept mentioning how much I hate the Greek episode apropos of nothing. Nobody's making me watch it (thank God), more importantly, nobody's making me talk about it (but I do relish the chance to dish on it! That is a BAD episode and nothing more to say about it!!!)

And it's not like that's the only episode where Frasier's a TOTAL creep. What about S05E01 where he takes a sleeping selfie of the woman he's seeing without her knowledge or permission? Mention that one once in a while instead of mentioning four plus times the same episode you refuse to watch

if you dont like a post that's great by why bring it up????

I would love to see a non-canonical episode where Frasier pressures Niles into doing a homoerotic murder and they have to hide it from Martin

In the interest of discussion, what made Frasier a “smart” show? The wine? The fancy objet de artes

I watched S1-8 in like 3 weeks and dropped off as soon as Niles & Daphne ruin everyone’s lives and weddings. I love the show but never really got the impression is was “smart” over the sense that it was a show “about smart people”.

The best gags in the show are DHP physical acting and comedic timing, Frazier’s delivery, Martin’s ancient dad wisdom, and Daphne’s white trash upbringing stories. I guess if “well-written” is interchangeable with “smart” I’ll concede the point but I wanna know what you think makes Frasier a “smart” show and not just the 90’s Big Bang Theory (a show about Smart People).

Take an episode like the ski lodge, it's not just well written with zingers and gags it's a step-by-step recreation of a 19th century French farce. A lot of Frasier episodes take inspiration from various theatrical comedy styles and are written in a formulaic way so that all the absurdities and escalations both come naturally and end up neatly tied together by the end of ~22 minutes of screentime. It's not just that the show is 'funny' its that it is meticulously organized and put together

Hell, I was getting bar mitzvah'd right before Freddy was. The show is perfect for all ages, even little kids would find the physical comedy hilarious.

that famous silent scene where niles prepares for dinner is basically a live-action loony tunes

Episode 20 Roz uses the term gaslighting. I honestly think it might have been one of the first mainstream uses of that term on a show.
