Omg Frasier

Why did they stop putting smart manly men on television. I want to rim him and he be my white daddy.

I always had a thing for Niles.

I'm confused. Is this a real trailer?

It's not real, boo.

R4 ☹️

It had several hilarious gay-themed episodes.

The Matchmaker: Frasier invites a man, Tom, to his apartment, thinking that the man will hit it off with Daphne. It turns out that Tom is gay, and he's attracted to Frasier. Here's a three minute clip of the funniest part.

Frasier and Niles go to a gay bar. This is one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen on TV. Here's a three-minute clip of the best part.

After the scene at R7, the local gossip column reports that Frasier was spotted at a gay bar. Frasier addresses the rumors on his radio show:

“Allow me to explain myself… See, I popped into bad Billy’s yesterday, looking for a man that I was hoping would be in the bathroom. I then had a drink with my furniture polisher and then I left. As for how I ended up in another man's (his brother Niles') shorts well… That is nobody’s business but my own.“

After Frasier has been outed on his own radio show, he is asked out on a date by Alistair (played by Patrick Stewart). Frasier isn't gay, but Alistair is hosting a party for the cast of the opera. It's an offer that Frasier can't refuse.

Frasier's relationship with Alistair heats up.

The Frasier, Guy, Niles Three' Company type farce episode made my teenage nether regions tingle!

Fraiser had the finest writers/writing on TV. I do not believe any other show will ever be as well done. The all-out best.

It was Gilles r10. Yahoo got that wrong. They had a hilarious ongoing joke about the proper pronunciation. I love this episode.

Much of the writing staff did " Hot in Cleveland."

Wait till you discover Seinfeld.

While I realize it's not a "real" trailer for the show, is it genuine in the sense that it was actually produced by the show as a joke? It seems like it's all newly filmed, not old clips put together.

Thank you, Current Mrs. Grammer, making a special guest appearance as the OP.

Finally getting a decent haircut and some blonde highlights after the first couple of seasons was the smartest thing Kelsey Grammer ever did. He looked quite hot.

Going back to this perfection. Yum!

R14 Been discovered that. I am a new yorker after all. Fraiser might be funnier.

The maker of this did a great job of pulling together footage from recentish projects by the cast.

Fred Sassy says "thumbs up!"

That 'Ski Chalet' article is really fun.

R14 Seinfeld… is … uhhh… ummm… not…. as… good… as uhhhh… Fraiser

That’s pronounced Guy.

In the episode, his name is Gilles. Niles keeps trying to get Frasier to pronounce it correctly.

That was the joke, r23.

R24, every reference I can find to this show refers to his character as Guy.

Yes, it wasn’t pronounced like we would say guy, but that’s the spelling.

Wasn't it pronounced like "ghee" is pronounced? That's usually how you pronounce "Guy" in French. "Gilles" is pronounced "Jhee" as in the way the letter "G" is pronounced is English, except with an elongated "z" sound at the start...so maybe "zzzJhee."

I thought they kept pronouncing it "ghee" on the episode. I could be wrong, I just caught part of that ep the other day on Pluto and had never seen it prior to that.

I envy you. I would love to see that episode with a “never seen it before” spin.

It’s guy; not gilles. Pronounced ghee…

R22 It's way better

Not so!

Never watched it during its initial run.

Recently started watching it on Hulu. Got through about half of the first season and gave up.

Ham Radio

R34 just curious. What do you find funny?

I fall asleep to it. It's very gentle. There's a whole reddit devoted to Frasier Sleepers

Ha, r37. I did the other night. My "fall asleep to" tv show (and has been for decades) is Forensic Files.

Yup, I'm weird. It's the narrator's voice.

You're right r27. It was "ghee" which I thought was properly spelled "Gilles" Thank you!

Give it longer r34. The first season isn't the funniest to me either. It gets a lot better.

R14 I discovered Seinfeld when it started. It cannot and will not ever hold a candle to Frasier. The End.

So ok, us Brits will take the rap for exporting James Corden to your shores, but my god, you got a great deal when lovely Jane Leeves travelled over there!

Take him back NOW R42. NOW

I left my appreciation for Seinfeld in the 90s.

Torture to watch now.

Frasier I could (and do) watch all day.

The mean looking scenes of Kelsey in op's parody come from Boss as the mayor of Chicago. He was superb.

I believe the clips of David Hyde Pierce are from a real change of pace role he played. It was also pretty good.

R15, this is from the description of the video:

[quote]Emmy Award winner Kelsey Grammer reprises his role as the renowned psychiatrist and radio personality in the chilling conclusion to the Frasier saga.

[quote]Coming soon to NBC.

[quote]Parody.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think comic writing genius Joe Keenan was on board for the first season. Maybe not even for the first two seasons. His presence definitely made a difference in the quality of the show.

Grammer and Hyde-Pierce were casting perfection. Frasier was an all-around superb production.

R45, Holy shit he looks like Kelsey in that promo pic.

Bring back ROZ!

Peri Gilpin left condolences with fond memories of Camille Grammer’s mother on Camille’s Instagram.

I want to see Roz come back!

Bebe was the best of all the part time cast members. She reminds me of a lot of DL'ers.

Seinfeld was funnier to New Yorkers than Frasier. Just as New Yorkers find Friends hilarious.

I cannot believe anyone finds Friends funny. That said if it is NYers that makes perfect sense.

R54 That's idiotic.

Frasier was so forced.

It really did insist upon itself.

Kelsey and Harriet "Bebe" Harris were students at Juilliard together.

[quote]I cannot believe anyone finds Friends funny.

Me neither, R55. On the other hand, the absurdity of R54's comment made me laugh.

Hello Peter Griffin @ R57!

[quote]Bebe was the best of all the part time cast members. She reminds me of a lot of DL'ers.

Was there ever a scene with Lilith and Bebe - that would be funny.

Nostalgia is a strange thing. I wonder if it's not best to let some iconic shows just remain in the past.

I was watching The West Wing box set the other day and sure you could make a new series of that too, like Frasier.

But, I personally, wouldn't.
