Frasier Reboot Makes Up For The Original Show’s Worst Flaw 30 Years Later
The original Frasier show may be widely beloved, but it doesn't mean that it's perfect. Now its reboot is making up for its worst flaw.
Frasier (1993)
Fraiser is a comedy-drama sitcom that stars Kelsey Grammer as a psychiatrist who takes up the role of a radio show host in Seattle after his life in Boston is upheaved. A spin-off of the series Cheers, Fraiser follows the titular character adjusting to the single life while caring for his father (a retired police officer,) his brother, and other eccentric co-workers. The series was brought back on Paramount+ for new seasons as a soft reboot in 2023.
