Frasier and Seinfeld are two series that have aged well and I will never get tired of watching... Frasier didn’t win something like 37 Emmy’s for no reason.. The cast, acting. And especially the writing on both shows are as close to perfection as you can get
There was an episode where a guy thinks Frasier is gay. Frasier later says to Niles, "He even asked if you were gay." Niles responds "Preposterous" and then looks straight at the camera.
Don't forget the one where Daphne is away at the "spa" and she's really having a baby in real life. Niles and Roz are at Nervosa talking. Roz asks about Daphne. Niles says, "She's doing well. She's already lost nine pounds, twelve ounces."
Kristie Snively I hated that plot line. They so easily could have sent her back to England: accidental deportation, Grammy Moon's death, something other than "she's fat and needs to be less so." It was just lazy writing IMO.
It was not lazy writing.. She was over eating because of her relationship with Niles due to his obsession of her over the past 5 or so years. It flushed out their relationship more and allowed them to move forward as a couple. Very psychological and appropriate for a show about 2 psychiatrists.
i liked it when Nanny G said to Frasier in episode 11.15 "Caught in the Act," "Do you have any idea what it's like to play the same chacter for 20 years?"
My 2nd favorite sitcom is TAXI..it still makes me laugh and cry when l recall the episodes. My fave Characters were Jim Ignaytowski.. Simply priceless. The one where Jim bought an old horse who died in Jim's bed is unforgettable. TAXI Had it all..pathos, comedy, Romance, hilarity, every emotion was covered. I worked long hours but l still tried to watch it whenever I could! Like Frasier, it is timeless.
I like when it takes Marty, Frasier, and Niles to pick Daphne up off the floor, and Marty says "Daphne, I just thought of something. It took three "Cranes" to lift you". Hahaha
@@renataanniejanerebeccaamet4340 Cecil was Sideshow Bob's brother in the Simpsons, just in case you didn't know. The characters are a direct reference to Fraiser and Niles hehe 😋 They're competitive, artsy, kinda snooty, and share a "refined" taste. It was a great way to pay tribute to Kelsey's career and take advantage of the hilarious dynamic these two have. Their characters in the Simpsons are alot more violent though to be fair. Bob is constantly trying to murder people and Cecil tries to drown the entire town be destroying a dam. It's like if Fraiser and Niles became deranged killers competing with eachother.
I always watch Frasier before I sleep, its sort of like ambient music to me. I love this series so much. Brilliant actors and phenomenal concept. Undoubtedly, one of the best series ever.
When I hear that 7 second musical intro, that's it. I drop everything and sit down. First commercial break, I make a cup of coffee, a no foam latte, with a whisper of cinnamon...LOL 😂😂. If it's on in the evening, then I pour a sherry 🍸 what else. Best show ever, it never gets old. Genius writing, great comedic timing, especially from, my favourite Niles aka David Hyde Pearce and great talent...ALL of them. I only wish I could come back a hundred years from now and still see people laughing. RIP to David Angell and his wife, one of the brilliant writers, who died on Flight 11 that crashed into the first of the 9/11 Twin Towers....and John Mahoney, aka Martin Crane. Cheers.
Gets downright chilling when you realize that David Angell was one of the Creators of "Wings" which was a Sitcom about a small Massachusetts Airline owned by two very competitive Brothers. And not only did Kelsey Grammer and Miss Peri Gilpin Guest Star on "Wings" (as did Miss Bebe Neuwirth) one of the Producers of "Wings" was a Woman named Miss Roz Doyle!🤔😔🎤🛫📻📺B.W.
David Angell was also one of The Co Writers of the Legendary "Mary Tyler Moore Show" Episode about the fictional funeral of "Chuckles The Clown" known as "Chuckles Bites The Dust."🤔🎤📺B.W.
I think it's interesting to note that a) They seem to drink a lot of tea in Seattle and b) they virtually never drink coffee in Frasier's apartment - I've started watching from the beginning and in the first six seasons I think it happened once. With a guest.
You missed the 'Martin mocking Daphne's accent' The inside joke being that John Mahoney was born in Blackpool and brought up in Manchester while Jane Leeves is from Essex. Although he had long since lost his Manchester accent since arriving in the States in 1959, John Mahoney schooled Leeves for Daphne's Mancunian twang from her own natural southern English [what Americans would expect as a traditional British accent]
@@Thinker669 You lose an accent by learning a new one. A teacher at the Berlitz school once told me I spoke Spanish without an accent... because I had learned to speak Spanish with the same Costa Rican accent *she* had...
Not so much in-jokes as guest appearances. An actual inside joke is when Nanny G says to Frasier "Do you have any idea what it's like to play the same character for twenty years?"
@@MrStarManMario he is gay, but at the time David Hyde Pierce had not come out yet. You can see how awkward that scene was for him as a man. He even accidentally looks at the camera. Which knowing how masterful of an actor David is... He had to have been pretty flustered to do. I always felt bad for.him having to play in that scene.
@monokhem yes it is jokes are subjective you can joke about someone who is playing straight but isn't or It can be a joke that someone was gay the whole time its not homophobic trust me you don't want to debate me I I"M A GAY MAN lmao
The writing/dialogue on this show was always top notch. I recall an episode where Frasier tries to set up Daphne with a guy that turns out to be gay. I remember thinking, “Not this tired old gag”, but the script and the situation was so cleverly put together it had me in stitches.
What about when Niles pretends to be Martin's boyfriend and his complaint isn't that he's forced to pretend to be gay, but that people will think Martin was the best he could do! It's the episode "Out with dad."
Nice! Thanks! Watch the episode wherein Marty's "chair" is dolled into Frasier's apartment. The SAME GUY (repleat with same checked shirt) dollies it out when Frasier moves out 10 years later! Great show!
My favorite Frasier inside joke was in an episode where he runs into his ex-wife, Nanny G, who's a children's entertainer. She complains to Frasier that he has no idea what it's like to play the same character for 20 years, which is just what Kelsey Grammar did playing Frasier (9 years on Cheers and 11 on Frasier). These are good, too, though.
Magic word......Resthome.... brilliant 🤣. I say this as I'm 75. If / when I'm in one I hope they have a TV lounge with Frasier running continually, no appalling daytime ( UK) TV for me thank you. By the time it runs through the whole series I'm guessing I'll have forgotten the first episodes 😂. Ho hum xxxx
I learned my best sarcasm from this series. I once mimicked Frasier by telling an accountant to try reworking the figures with her crayon. Wasn't as funny in real life.
I watch the repeats on our Hallmark channel all the time. My husband rolls his eyes. But I LOVE the show Frasier, and I also still laugh like it's the first time, every time. Best sitcom. EVER.
I spent 12 years in North America and I love American and Canadian TV shows and comedies in specific. This is without a doubt the best show I have ever seen in my whole life. The writing, the acting and the directing are absolutely amazing! I love Kelsey, David, and everybody on this show even those who appeared in one episode.
Well Spotted. I always wondered why Frasier seemed to stand out amongst other American sitcoms for me and now you say it that's probably why as I'm English.
It was the sharpest comedic writing that stayed true to each character. The big challenge was the dating of Niles and Daphne and for them to not reveal stereotypes. Niles discovering the source of his soon-to-be ex-wife's FAMILY wealth showed his line in the sand and his wicked wit tinged with revenge -sweet and howling funny!
Well, he DID play a judge in a movie, which is still in that kind of public service area. It was the 1987 movie "Suspect" where Cher was the attorney, and Dennis Quaid was working with her on the case of a wrongly accused deaf man, played by the star of "Taken, Liam Neeson. I thought Cher played that role quite well. John Mahoney played an angry judge. I remember that. I should watch the movie again to figure out why. I vaguely remember him being angry to keep from being found out, being guilty of something illegal in the whole thing. Not sure what. A coverup? IN cahoots with the police and it was a corrupt cops hit? Dang! Now I want to watch it again! Here's an image of John Mahoney as the judge: www.imdb.com/title/tt0094082/mediaviewer/rm2760843520?ft0=name&fv0=nm0001498&ft1=image_type&fv1=still_frame
On a network available in Belgium, they keep on rerunning season one. I must have seen each episode about ten or more times by now and still muster at least a smile (if not a belly laugh) with each episode. Of course I have seen the entire series when it was hot, but at least for now I'm stuck with season One until my DVD set finally arrives.
My favorite was when Jane Leeves was off on maternity leave and they wrote it as going to a weight loss centre. Two episodes later Niles mentions how she had already lost 8 pounds, eleven ounces.
When I was younger me and my mom would put Frasier on in the background on Netflix. We probably watched the whole series 10 times. We did that for years
miss the times when I would play those episodes in the morning having my breakfast after my night shift bcos I have a video tape recorder. lolz.... arh... how time flies...
+William Drake Years ago I found one of those hats worn by the French Foreign Legion and women were giving me the eye like never before. I don't know what happened to that hat now that I'm thinking about it.
“Just because I gave her a ride doesn’t mean I have to spend the whole evening with her.” Man I don’t really care for comedies that rely on misunderstanding but frasier did it perfectly
i did know it from the very first season,Niles/David was an obvious one.I adore him,Niles was always one of my very favourite characters in Frasier.Great actor too,he was very good in that movie "Perfect Host". I get the vibe that he would be a lovely person in real life.He has a gentle kinda aura about him,if that doesn't sound too flaky lol.
Actually, he has a reputation for being a bit sharp -- ''doesn't suffer fools gladly'' -- that sort of thing. Which isn't unusual among very smart, very talented people who are deluged by public attention. I wonder whether you're making the entirely understandable mistake of the appreciative viewer: Seeing what you want to see, or confusing the actor with what you like about the character. (No offense intended; we all do it.) ........... John Mahoney, on the other hand, had a reputation as a very down-to-earth person, somewhat more approachable (tho I'm sure he had his limits as well).
@@JJ21210 i’m wondering why you needed to use this persons comment to start a think piece? Why and How in the hell would they know what DHP is like in real life? The poster is obviously of the show and of him why would they would hes “sharp in real life”. Not to mention he plays Niles so effortlessly, someone who is a little innocent and gentle, it seems like it could be his natural personality
If you can get TV shows from the UK, you might like W1A, Quacks, Back, and Inside No. 9 -- all very clever. (Inside No. 9 can be very dark, tho, so be forewarned; the others are all clearly comedies.)
@@markvahlkamp5443 spitting image dictionary definitions: noun A perfect likeness or counterpart. The exact likeness (of someone). a perfect likeness or counterpart
RE: the first scene where Frasier sarcastically says Niles' reaction to Roz's date means he's gay. Reminds me of the episode where the new (male) station manager gets the impression Frasier is gay and wants to date the new manager, while at the same time Frasier tries to fix up the new manager with Roz. Don't recall the name of the episode, but the concluding scene is one of the best. Similar to the episode where Patrick Stewart plays the opera director and starts a gay relationship with Frasier. Frasier knows it, but is enjoying the perqs of the relationship too much to be honest with Stewart, until the closing scene, another classic.
He tries to fix up the new manager with Daphne, not Roz. That of course creates all sorts of misunderstandings and makes Niles jealous until he discovers the truth and then gets a good laugh at Frasier's expense. Very funny episode.
At the risk of being, well ... something ... I can imagine that is wasn't particularly hard for Sir Patrick Stewart to play, with subtlety, a gay guy -- instead of the stereotypical 'minceing queen' -- given both his acting skills, and his close friendship with Sir Ian Mckellen, the latter having been out for years ...
After just watching this clip earlier today, I was watching an episode on Cozi TV tonight when Nanny G ( an ex-wife of Frasier's). She has this great line when she's complaining about playing the part of a children's entertainer and says to Frasier" Do you have any idea what it's like to play the same character for 20 years?" Well, at that point , between Cheers and Frasier, Kelsey had been playing Frasier, you guessed it, 20 years. A missed opportunity for this video
Nanny G was played by the amazing Emma Thompson on the Cheers episode. So that line would have been really funny had they managed to snag her to play the part again. You are right though, that is still a funny line and a true inside joke.
So many funny episodes! Innumerable pieces of hilarity. Hit every bit of emotion. Oddly enough where I got really emotional, was seeing the same guy in the same red work shirt pick up Martin's chair at the end. I thought, oh how cool of the show to bring him a little bit of recognition, we remembered him! A bit of familiarity, and a signal we'd never see him again, brought a little more heartbreak
Nice video. Thanks for posting. I liked the Maureen character. She would have made a good match for Martin if they'd have kept her around. They had a nice chemistry.
I remember being 5 when this was on tv. For me Fraiser meant that wrestling was over and my parents would then take over the tv and watch it and i would get up and play in my room. I then watched the whole series randomly 6 years ago when I was 22 and loved every second of it. It’s just had so many memorable moments and since I took psychology and sociology in high school I actually understood a lot of the jokes like “Pygmalionism” and the competing ideas of Jung and Freud that comes up between Niles and Frasier. I can see why it won so many emmys and Kelsey grammar was the highest paid tv star at the time!
I've been watching "Frasier" on Netflix. I forgot how addicting it is. I watched this show as a child and young pre-teen and I honestly believe that was a reason why I was intellectually ahead of my peers, especially when it came to literary, musical, or travel references. Why can't there be shows like this anymore?! I need to get it all on DVD just in case I can't find it in the future, that way my children can watch it as well.
![All of doctor Lilith Sternin's dramatic entrances [Frasier]](/img/n.gif)
I'll tell ya all now that Frasier is, was and always be the sitcom I can never get tired of watching. Best ever.

There was an episode where a guy thinks Frasier is gay. Frasier later says to Niles, "He even asked if you were gay." Niles responds "Preposterous" and then looks straight at the camera.

An inside joke was when Niles called Frasier "big red clown shoes" in the episode Head Game. A reference to Sideshow Bob whose voice is Kelsey's.
That is so true...and it was so good! Haha

your telling me, next thing you know in 10 year Ill be 27 looking back on this comment its like scary
I watch it every night on Netflix before I go to bed.
I'm currently binging it on Hulu! Love this show.
"This pointy hat is a babe magnet!" classic
+William Drake Years ago I found one of those hats worn by the French Foreign Legion and women were giving me the eye like never before. I don't know what happened to that hat now that I'm thinking about it.
Now we got another Putin in Russia other than Ras
Get a dunce cap. Chicks dig those.
“Just because I gave her a ride doesn’t mean I have to spend the whole evening with her.” Man I don’t really care for comedies that rely on misunderstanding but frasier did it perfectly
One the most well written and acted shows DHP is a gem!
i did know it from the very first season,Niles/David was an obvious one.I adore him,Niles was always one of my very favourite characters in Frasier.Great actor too,he was very good in that movie "Perfect Host". I get the vibe that he would be a lovely person in real life.He has a gentle kinda aura about him,if that doesn't sound too flaky lol.
Actually, he has a reputation for being a bit sharp -- ''doesn't suffer fools gladly'' -- that sort of thing. Which isn't unusual among very smart, very talented people who are deluged by public attention. I wonder whether you're making the entirely understandable mistake of the appreciative viewer: Seeing what you want to see, or confusing the actor with what you like about the character. (No offense intended; we all do it.)
........... John Mahoney, on the other hand, had a reputation as a very down-to-earth person, somewhat more approachable (tho I'm sure he had his limits as well).
@@JJ21210 i’m wondering why you needed to use this persons comment to start a think piece? Why and How in the hell would they know what DHP is like in real life? The poster is obviously of the show and of him why would they would hes “sharp in real life”. Not to mention he plays Niles so effortlessly, someone who is a little innocent and gentle, it seems like it could be his natural personality
im still watching frasier and its 2019 :D
2020
2021 and there will never be a better show than Frazier!!
This really was " the smartest show on TV ". Too bad we have so much " Reality TV " crap passing as " entertainment ".
If you can get TV shows from the UK, you might like W1A, Quacks, Back, and Inside No. 9 -- all very clever. (Inside No. 9 can be very dark, tho, so be forewarned; the others are all clearly comedies.)
knoxvilleguy2 Goodness. Happens
Always enjoyable.
Amen to that!!!
Damn right
Wow, this was very interesting. Thank you for posting.
Never gets old , can watch over and over
I love Frazier. I rewatched all 11 seasons while my newborn was napping!
Now your newborn is 12 and can't read, write, or walk but has excellent taste in TV shows.

Spit and image, not spitting image

I love it when the comment section delivers what the actual video did not!
I love frasier, I watch this show all the time. ☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️
Love that 2nd scene with Lois (the mom) from Malcolm in the Middle. A crossover between my, probably, two favourite comedy shows ever.
Fraser is Awesome!
At the end of that episode, Frasier's wife dressed as Eve, leaves with Satan.
Such clever writing / attention to detail.
Masterpiece
RE: the first scene where Frasier sarcastically says Niles' reaction to Roz's date means he's gay. Reminds me of the episode where the new (male) station manager gets the impression Frasier is gay and wants to date the new manager, while at the same time Frasier tries to fix up the new manager with Roz. Don't recall the name of the episode, but the concluding scene is one of the best. Similar to the episode where Patrick Stewart plays the opera director and starts a gay relationship with Frasier. Frasier knows it, but is enjoying the perqs of the relationship too much to be honest with Stewart, until the closing scene, another classic.
He tries to fix up the new manager with Daphne, not Roz. That of course creates all sorts of misunderstandings and makes Niles jealous until he discovers the truth and then gets a good laugh at Frasier's expense. Very funny episode.
It was called the Matchmaker
@@GoGreen1977 , was on last night
At the risk of being, well ... something ... I can imagine that is wasn't particularly hard for Sir Patrick Stewart to play, with subtlety, a gay guy -- instead of the stereotypical 'minceing queen' -- given both his acting skills, and his close friendship with Sir Ian Mckellen, the latter having been out for years ...
The Halloween episode is absolutely hilarious!
Hilarity in true human angst of every character
"This pointy hat is a babe magnet!"
Best sitcom EVER!!!!!
Love this show!!!
😆✌🏻💖🌈
2021 and rumour has it Frasier is returning 👍🏻👍🏻
Just binged 264 episodes of Frazier...all still funny as hell all these years later...also Cheers...RIP Kirstie...:(
I love these shows that use the actors family. Its sweet. Thanks for sharing
Perfect sitcom
I can't believe I watch the repeats every morning ,brilliant show
After just watching this clip earlier today, I was watching an episode on Cozi TV tonight when Nanny G ( an ex-wife of Frasier's). She has this great line when she's complaining about playing the part of a children's entertainer and says to Frasier" Do you have any idea what it's like to play the same character for 20 years?" Well, at that point , between Cheers and Frasier, Kelsey had been playing Frasier, you guessed it, 20 years. A missed opportunity for this video
Nanny G was played by the amazing Emma Thompson on the Cheers episode. So that line would have been really funny had they managed to snag her to play the part again. You are right though, that is still a funny line and a true inside joke.
Best show ever!
The best of all time.
I love this show.
Great show!
So many funny episodes! Innumerable pieces of hilarity. Hit every bit of emotion. Oddly enough where I got really emotional, was seeing the same guy in the same red work shirt pick up Martin's chair at the end.
I thought, oh how cool of the show to bring him a little bit of recognition, we remembered him! A bit of familiarity, and a signal we'd never see him again, brought a little more heartbreak
Best show ever
This and Cheers are awesome
When they did the 1940s radio show, i couldn't stop laughing 😂😂😂
Nice video. Thanks for posting.
I liked the Maureen character. She would have made a good match for Martin if they'd have kept her around. They had a nice chemistry.
Loved the Halloween episode. Niles as Cyrano was so much fun!
I like that episode too!
The misunderstanding, Roz...
And of course Niles because of course .. Niles.
That Halloween costume party episode was the first one I ever watched. Finding out Roz was pregnant - talk about spoiler alert! 🤣🤣
In September 1993 when Frasier first aired I entered junior high school as a 7th grader
My favorite was the clap on clap off show. Hilarious
This was uploaded 11 years ago. How awesome 😎.
Please upload MORE! 😂💕👍🌴🌴💯
aww DHPs dad is so cute
The writing in this show was pure genius..
I remember being 5 when this was on tv. For me Fraiser meant that wrestling was over and my parents would then take over the tv and watch it and i would get up and play in my room. I then watched the whole series randomly 6 years ago when I was 22 and loved every second of it. It’s just had so many memorable moments and since I took psychology and sociology in high school I actually understood a lot of the jokes like “Pygmalionism” and the competing ideas of Jung and Freud that comes up between Niles and Frasier. I can see why it won so many emmys and Kelsey grammar was the highest paid tv star at the time!
"The good book?" Oh, I just got it!
They just dont make shows like this anymore smh!
2022 and still fenomenal to me! ❤️❤️❤️
I love the episode set in the coffee shop the entire time, my favourite.
WATCHING 20 YEARS EARLIER. N. NOW. LAUGHTER,,,,TY
just discovered it, so funny i now have to go and find all episodes
"Well, I uh... Was shot by an armed suspect." I always found that line to be cute (though someone getting shot is never funny!).
It's just how casually how Martin mentioned it. He's a great guy like that.
Depends on who's getting shot.
I've been watching "Frasier" on Netflix. I forgot how addicting it is. I watched this show as a child and young pre-teen and I honestly believe that was a reason why I was intellectually ahead of my peers, especially when it came to literary, musical, or travel references. Why can't there be shows like this anymore?! I need to get it all on DVD just in case I can't find it in the future, that way my children can watch it as well.
