What was fun about Frasier is that he and Niles would always get their comeuppance. And the father was there to reinforce the lessons learned. Of course, by next week whatever lessons were learned were forgotten and the brothers would get into trouble again.

Niles mellowed somewhat when he and Daphne finally got together. And Frasier lost some of his pomposity when he finally found the love of his life. These were signals that the show was coming to an end. Without that snobbery, the show wouldn't last much longer.

By the way, a little trivia: John Mahoney, who played the father, is in real life a gourmet and wine connoisseur. David Hyde Pierce (Niles) went to Mahoney for advice on fine wine as part of developing the Niles character.

One of my favorite scenes, of course it was in the 90s. Niles and Frazier are talking to each other on their cells and they back into each other in Frazier’s apt.

Great send up of the new technology.

Frazier is one of the best written comedies ever.

Thanks for your thoughts and insight on the Frazier show.

I really enjoyed it. It’s one of those shows you hate to see go, but there’s only so long a show like that can run.

Still, in a way it feels almost like losing friends.
