Frasier Sequel Series: Peri Gilpin to Reprise Role From Original Show

The Frasier sequel series is welcoming back yet another cast member from the original series, as Peri Gilpin is set to return to the series, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Gilpin, who played the role of Frasier Crane’s radio producer Roz Doyle in the original NBC series, is set to return in a guest appearance on the show. It’s unclear just how much Gilpin will be in the revival, but she is yet another former cast member to appear, with Bebe Neuwirth — who played Frasier’s ex-wife, Lilith — also set to appear in the sequel series.

The Frasier sequel series hails from writers Chris Harris and Joe Cristalli. It will feature the return of Kelsey Grammer as he reprises his iconic titular role. He will also be joined by previously announced cast member Nicholas Lyndhurst as Alan Cornwall, who is Frasier’s old college buddy that is now a university professor.

“Frasier is off to a different city with new challenges to face, new relationships to forge, and an old dream or two to finally fulfill,” reads the logline. “Frasier has re-entered the building!”

Frasier ran on-air for eleven seasons from 1993 to 2004. It earned a total of 108 Emmy nominations and won 37 of them, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for Grammer’s performance as Frasier Crane. In addition, the series also earned Grammer two Golden Globe Awards for Best Actor.

The original series featured a number of guest-stars who provided their voices as callers, including Gillian Anderson, Halle Berry, Jodie Foster, Carrie Fisher, Linda Hamilton, Helen Mirren, Ben Stiller, Kevin Bacon, Billy Crystal, and more.
