Frasier was a popular American situation comedy television series that starred Kelsey Grammer as Dr. Frasier Crane, and featured David Hyde Pierce, John Mahoney, Jane Leeves, and Peri Gilpin in regular roles. A spin-off from the successful 1980s show Cheers, Frasier centred around the character of Dr. Crane, whom Grammer had previously played in the earlier show, and aired on NBC for eleven seasons from September 16, 1993 to May 13, 2004, which was the highest-rated series finale at the time, between Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Will & Grace. The show was created by David Angell, Peter Casey, and David Lee, and was produced by Angell, Casey, and Lee (as Grub Street Productions) in association with Paramount Television. Angell, Casey and Lee had also written and produced Cheers and created Wings. Critically acclaimed, the show won a record 39 Emmy Awards during its run.

Summary

The series begins with psychiatrist Dr. Frasier Crane (Grammer) having recently arrived in his hometown of Seattle, following the break-up of his marriage and his life in Boston (which was covered in the series Cheers). His plans for his new life as a bachelor are complicated when he is forced to take in his father, retired police officer Martin Crane (Mahoney), who has been forced to retire from the police department and is unable to live by himself owing to an injury received when he was shot in the line of duty. Frasier and Martin are joined by Daphne Moon (Leeves), Martin's eccentric British physical therapist, and Martin's dog Eddie (Moose). A frequent visitor to their apartment is Frasier's brother Niles (Pierce), a fellow psychiatrist who, like Frasier, is pompous, stuffy and snobby, and who for much of the series nurses an obvious crush on Daphne. Away from home, Frasier hosts a radio talk show in on KACL 780AM (named to honor the show's creators, Angell, Casey, and Lee, with K being the default prefix for stations west of the Mississippi). His producer is Roz Doyle (Gilpin), a down-to-earth woman with an active romantic life who is decidedly different from Frasier in taste and temperament, but who nevertheless becomes a very close friend of his over the course of the series. Psychiatry is a branch of medicine that studies and treats mental and emotional disorders (see mental illness). ...

Numerous running jokes and themes are developed throughout the series. Chief amongst them is the class-and-familial conflict between Frasier, Niles, and Martin, which is frequently alluded to; the two sons who possess tastes, intellectual interests and rather high opinions of themselves, frequently clash with their more blue-collar, down-to-earth father, and a running theme in the early seasons in particular is Frasier and Martin's difficulty in both reaching an accommodation with each other and in sharing an apartment. Despite being incredibly similar in personality, interests and sensibilities, the relationship between Frasier and Niles is no less turbulent; victims of intense sibling rivalry, many plots revolve around their jealousies of each other and petty attempts at one-upmanship, which frequently result in chaos. Other developing storylines include Niles' growing love for Daphne (which Daphne remains unaware of in the early seasons, despite its increasingly obvious nature) and the breakdown of his marriage to the never-seen Maris, Frasier's search for love in his own life, and the various attempts of the two brothers to enter higher levels of Seattle's elite. Maris Crane is a character on the American television sitcom Frasier. ...

Critical reaction

In a retrospective review in The Radio Times Guide to Television Comedy, Mark Lewisohn called the show a "comedy masterpiece", noting the following (although the first bullet point is correct for the quote, more locations were eventually included in the show such as Niles Cranes' apartment):^[1] Mark Lewisohn (born 1958) is one of the worlds foremost experts on The Beatles. ...

• From just three studio-bound locations - Frasier's fine apartment 1901 in Elliott Bay Towers, with its panoramic view of Seattle; the KACL studio; and the perfectly named Café Nervosa, where Frasier, Niles and the others meet for coffee - truly great comedy was wrought.
• [T]he producers remained determined to keep Frasier adult and sophisticated: the scripts were literate, the plots tight and the one-liners extremely funny and incisive. The writers were never afraid to use classical references in the lines or make jokes about subjects that many of the viewers wouldn't have experienced.

Trivia

This section does not cite its references or sources. Please help improve this article by introducing appropriate citations. (help, get involved!) This article has been tagged since July 2006.

• In the Simpsons episode "Brother from Another Series", David Hyde Pierce guest stars as Cecil Terwilliger, Sideshow Bob's brother, voiced by Kelsey Grammer. The episode also alluded to Niles' wife, Maris Crane, and makes use of subtitle slides as the "Frasier" series does.
• In the eighth season of Cheers in the episode "Two Girls for Every Boyd", Frasier tells Sam Malone (Ted Danson) that his father died and that he was a research scientist. In the Season 2 episode The One Where Sam Shows Up when Sam meets Martin he brings up the incongruities since Martin was obviously not dead and he was a retired police officer. Frasier explains it by saying he just had a fight with his father on the phone and he was very angry with him at the time. This is an example of retconning.
• In an Eleventh Season Episode of Cheers John Mahoney appears as Si Phlembeck, an over-the-hill advertising exec hired by Rebecca to write a jingle for Cheers. He ends up writing a jingle based on Old MacDonald, then writes another one based on Merrily We Roll Along. Rebecca ends up calling him a hack and firing him only to have the customers remember the catchy Old MacDonald jingle and Rebecca subsequently runs out of the bar to catch him. Kelsey Grammer and John Mahoney shared a few lines in this episode.
• The casting directors' second choices for the roles of Niles and Martin Crane were Peter MacNicol and Robert Prosky respectively. Prosky had previously played the father of another Cheers regular, Rebecca, on an episode of that show. Prosky appeared in Season 4 as a J.D.Salinger-like writer who strikes up a friendship with Martin.
• The show is set in Seattle, Washington but only one episode, "The 1000th Show", was filmed there.^[2] The remainder was filmed on Stage 25, Paramount Studios, and at various locales in and around Los Angeles.
• In an eerie case of life imitating art, in Season 4, Episode 23 "Odd Man Out" (aired in the US and UK in 1997), a stranger named Laura calls Frasier's answering machine to say that she will be flying into Seattle on American Airlines Flight 11. Tragically this is the exact same flight that series creator David Angell and his wife were later to perish on when it hit the North Tower of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
• Frasier's first wife, Nanny Gee (a children's show host), was played by two different actresses in two different series; first by Emma Thompson on an episode of Cheers, and later by Laurie Metcalf (Jackie on "Roseanne") on an episode of Frasier.
• Most of the surviving cast members of Cheers appeared at one time or another, except for Kirstie Alley ("Rebecca Howe"). Alley was alleged to have turned down an appearance because she is a Scientologist (Scientologists reject psychiatry/psychology).
• The view from Frasier's apartment in Seattle is impossible to achieve; no building or apartment in the city really has that view. It was made like this so that the Space Needle would appear more prominently. According to the season 1 DVD bonus features, the photograph was taken from atop a cliff (possibly the ledge at Kerry Park, a frequent photography location). Only once has there ever been an exterior shot facing Frasier's apartment building, in the 4th season episode The Impossible Dream.
• Frasier was voted by sitcom writers, producers and actors as the greatest sitcom of all time in the Channel 4 (UK) show The Ultimate Sitcom, aired on January 2, 2006.
• The actor playing the deliveryman who wheels in Martin's chair in the first episode reprised his role in the final episode, and wheeled Martin's chair out of Frasier's apartment.
• The radio station callers' lines were done by anonymous voiceover actors while filming the show in front of a live audience. This gave the cast something to react to. During postproduction, the voiceover actors' lines were replaced by celebrities, who literally phoned in their parts without having to come into the studio. The end credits of season finales would show headshots of all the celebrities who had "called in" that season.
• Although not noticed by the average American viewer, none of Daphne’s relatives (aside from her mother) nor her ex-boyfriend have Manchester accents, despite supposing to have come from Manchester. They mostly have Southern English accents (i.e. London). Her brother Nigel's accent is Cockney. Daphne herself has a mixture of different Northern English accents in order to portray a stereotypical working class Briton. Coincidentally, John Mahoney actually is Mancunian, while Jane Leeves is from Sussex.
• The cast (sans Kelsey Grammer) performed a "mock-audition" of Star Trek: Voyager during the Star Trek 30 Years and Beyond primetime special on October 6, 1996, alongside Kate Mulgrew as Voyager character Captain Janeway (a YouTube clip is available here). Even though he did not appear in the skit, Grammer had previously played Captain Morgan Bateson in the episode "Cause and Effect" of Star Trek: The Next Generation. The primetime special was hosted by Ted Danson, who played Sam Malone on Cheers as well as on Frasier.
• The song that appears during the closing credits is "Tossed salads and scrambled eggs" By Bruce Miller and Daryl Phinessee. Kelsey Grammer is the singer.^[3]
• In season five the show pays homage to a letter the writers received from a renowned British T.V. critic, Sam Bates (of T.V. Quick! fame). The letter included the words "Ruddy Ace!", which Kelsey Grammer liked so much he insisted it was used in the show. Bates later claimed to be the biggest Frasier fan ever, having drunk three bottles of Cherry Lambrini. This claim has been widely discredited as Bates has claimed numerous times that his favourite program is the British drama series Doctors - the letter appears to have been written with Bates' best friend, former editor of The Sun tabloid newspaper Kelvin MacKenzie.
• Throughout the series, Frasier drives a BMW 5-Series and later a 7-Series.
• Eddie the dog (Moose) received more fan mail than any other cast member in Frasier. He is also reputed to have earned $10,000 per episode.
• Frasier's door number, 1901, is the year Freud's "The Psychopathology of Everyday Life" was published.
• The role of Frasier's son Frederick Crane, was first played in Season 3 by child actor Luke Tarsitano. The following season, Trevor Einhorn took over the role for the rest of the series.
• Niles Crane's whippet was named "Girl". In a nod towards Niles profession as a psychaitrist, Girl required nerve medication. (Episode #67 "Chess Pains")
• Peri Gilpin also appeared as a different character on Cheers before Frasier. In the Cheers episode where Woody runs for office Peri plays a reporter interviewing him .
