Frasier is the 2023 revival/Sequel Series of the original 1993 — 2004 series of the same name (itself a spinoff of Cheers), once again starring Kelsey Grammer as the titular Dr. Frasier Crane.After nearly twenty years in Chicago as the host of a television program, Frasier relocates back to his old hometown of Boston, looking to reconnect with his estranged son Freddy (Jack Cutmore-Scott), now an adult and working as a firefighter. There, Frasier takes a teaching post at Harvard, his alma mater alongside Alan Cornwall (Nicholas Lyndhurst), an old friend from his time at Cambridge, and Olivia (Toks Olagundoye), Harvard's Dean of Psychology, who's desperate to build up her reputation and become provost. Joining them are David Crane (Anders Keith), Frasier's nephew and the son of Niles Crane (David Hyde Pierce) & Daphne Moon (Jane Leeves) from the original seriesnote Neither Pierce nor Leeves are returning for this series, at least as regular characters, an undergraduate in Harvard's psychology program, and Eve (Jess Salgueiro), Freddy's friend and roommate.Although Grammer is the only returning cast member from the original series in the main cast note Freddy was predominantly portrayed by Trevor Einhorn there, Bebe Neuwirth and Peri Gilpin each made guest appearances as Dr. Lilith Sternin and Roz Doyle, respectively.Frasier premiered on Paramount+ on October 13th, 2023, with the first two episodes airing on CBS for a limited preview a week later.The series was renewed for a second season on February 22nd, 2024. | |

| Frasier (2023) / int_111f14e | comment |
Proverbial Wisdom: Invoked by Olivia, who represents her saying that 'A no is just a yes in a trenchcoat' as this. She has apparently said it so often that Alan believes it must be a common American saying and tells Frasier such. | |

Ironic Hell: Essentially what Frasier has become trapped in prior to the events of the show as he had chased fame as well as wealth for years on the previous show. He achieved all of his dreams and more on television but believes he became a joke of a psychologist and more entertaining than respected doctor. | |

Generation Xerox | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_25bc8511 | comment |
Generation Xerox: Mirroring the dynamic between Frasier and Martin in the original series, Frasier now has a similar relationship with Freddy, who has since grown into more of a Working-Class Hero type who isn't overly fussy and pretentious like his father. Frasier and Freddy even have a near-exact same argument about home decorations when they move in together. Just like Frasier did on Cheers, Freddy lied to his friends about his father's job, and told them his dad was dead. David shares the speech patterns and hypochondriac tendencies of his father, Niles. Frasier also notes that David has a lot of the heart and compassion of Daphne, his mother. | |

Stylistic Suck | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: Frasier's in-universe show in its later seasons became a pastiche of a lot of mid-2000s talk shows, complete with a corny theme song, Product Placement up the wazoo and segments that involve such things as "delving in to the mind of the world's smartest pig". | |

The closing credits for “Reindeer Games� somewhat breaks from the established formula of a silent pantomime accompanied by the theme song, and instead has Frasier attempting to conduct the elementary string quartet playing the song In-Universe. Eventually he gives up, snaps his baton, then crumples up the score, and the recording resumes as per usual. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: While discussing the Cheers bar with Alan in “The Founders’ Society�, Alan casually asks, “and nobody knew your name?� This, of course, alludes to that series’ famous theme song. The closing credits for “Reindeer Games� somewhat breaks from the established formula of a silent pantomime accompanied by the theme song, and instead has Frasier attempting to conduct the elementary string quartet playing the song In-Universe. Eventually he gives up, snaps his baton, then crumples up the score, and the recording resumes as per usual. | |

Gargle Blaster: Frasier and Freddy share a drink of "Scootch" which is called that because it can't be legally called scotch. Frasier compares it to solvent while Freddy semi-seriously says that it's dissolving his own glass. | |

Remember the New Guy?: Nicholas Lyndhurst co-stars as Frasier's old college friend Alan Cornwall, who was never mentioned before this series. This is lampshaded in "Freddy's Birthday", where Lilith has absolutely no idea who he is, even though he was a guest at her and Frasier's wedding. | |

Sequel Non-Entity: Both David Hyde Pierce and Jane Leeves opted out of the revival, resulting in Niles and Daphne not returning. Along with John Mahoney's death preventing Martin from appearing and Peri Gilpin only confirmed for one guest role as Roz, this left Frasier as the only main characternote Freddy was a recurring character in the original from the original show to appear in the revival. | |

Bait-and-Switch: A double one in the first episode. At first it appears that Freddy has a boyfriend named John that he does not want Frasier to know about and that is why Eve is pretending to be his girlfriend. Then it turns out that John is Eve's baby and it seems as if Freddy is the father. The truth is that Eve is Freddy's roommate and John's father was a fellow firefighter and friend of Freddy's who died tragically. | |

Same Character, But Different | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_9890e176 | comment |
Same Character, But Different: Freddy and David were a teenager and a newborn when the original series ended, so it's no surprise that they are very different twenty years later, they're even played by new actors. Frasier once made a joke about Freddy, that between being Jewish on Lilith's side and inheriting his father's athletic talent, "the NFL wasn't holding its breath." Now Freddy is a very fit firefighter. Niles was worried that David would grow up to be like Daphne's brothers because when he tried to play classical music for him, the baby would kick the music player off of Daphne's belly, and her water broke the instant Niles said the phrase "open bar". Clearly, Niles had nothing to worry about. | |

Continuity Nod: In the pilot episode, Frasier remembers when he used to live in Boston. Freddy briefly mentions the restaurant Frasier and Niles ran for one day, referencing the 1995 episode “The Innkeepers�. David refers to the time Freddy went goth, as seen in the 2003 episode “High Holidays�. Several of Martin’s old Christmas decorations can be seen in “Reindeer Games�, including the dancing Santa and Rudolph wreath. His widow, Ronee, is also mentioned as having sent them to Frasier. | |

History Repeats | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_e003c829 | comment |
History Repeats: As it turns out, Freddy claimed to his buddies that his father had died years before, much like Frasier had donenote This was done in Frasier to reconcile the fact that the writers had said that Frasier's father had passed away in Cheers, with Frasier telling Martin that he'd been metaphorical because he was mad at the time. Both Freddy and David had psych classes at Harvard, just like Frasier, although Freddy dropped out. Like his father, Freddy has formed a deep friendship with a Boston bartender. | |

Only Sane by Comparison | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_e08e8216 | comment |
Niles's son David takes on his role as the clumsy, socially awkward, nerdy intellectual family member who makes Frasier seem relatively normal by comparison. | |

Composite Character | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_e4965307 | comment |
Composite Character: Frasier's nephew David (who was born in the original series finale) retains his father's clumsiness and his mother's Cloudcuckoolander heart. With Niles and Daphne both absent from this series, David effectively fills that role for both of them. | |

Old Shame | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_e6c88e42 | comment |
Old Shame: Frasier feels this way about his TV show and past as a celebrity talk show host. He wants, instead, to shed his image as a pop psychologist and gain respectability as a Harvard professor. Unfortunately, he was hired due to his in-universe fame with his students treating his classes like an episode of his show. | |

Decomposite Character | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_f0508c08 | comment |
Decomposite Character: Both Niles and Roz. Niles's son David takes on his role as the clumsy, socially awkward, nerdy intellectual family member who makes Frasier seem relatively normal by comparison. Alan takes on Niles's role as Frasier's Deadpan Snarker colleague and confidant. He also has a Vitriolic Best Buds relationship with Olivia similar to Niles and Roz. Like Roz, Eve is Freddy's best friend and a single mom. Olivia takes on Roz's role as Frasier's work friend who has a Vitriolic Best Buds relationship with Alan similar to Niles and Roz. | |

Seasonal Rot | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_f1a1a9a4 | comment |
Seasonal Rot: An in-universe example. Frasier shows Alan clips of his TV talk-show and reveals that it started out as an earnest attempt at providing mental health advice to guests. By the show's thirteenth season, it morphed into an entertainment show complete with comedy sidekick, celebrity guests, and crazy stunts. | |

Lower-Class Lout | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_f34a4c1e | comment |
Niles was worried that David would grow up to be like Daphne's brothers because when he tried to play classical music for him, the baby would kick the music player off of Daphne's belly, and her water broke the instant Niles said the phrase "open bar". Clearly, Niles had nothing to worry about. | |

Dude, Where's My Respect? | |
| Frasier (2023) / int_f818b637 | comment |
Dude, Where's My Respect?: Played with; over the past two decades, Frasier has graduated from a local radio celebrity to a world-renowned television personality so he's definitely admired. However, he dislikes the "dancing bear" nature of his fame, and wishes that his students would treat him more as a serious educator | |
