What did Kelsey Grammer say about the Frasier revival series?
In an interview with Independent, Grammer spoke about the revival series and how it stands out against other reboots and spin-offs. The actor described the revival as “a spin-off of a spin-off.”
“The ethics of Frasier — the study of good, let’s say — was important to us,” Grammer explained. “It seemed important to all the people that were involved in the original one, and it has remained important in the show today … This isn’t really a spin-off. It’s more of a third act, or fourth act. A spin-off of a spin-off.”
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. Additionally, 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.
“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 revival’s logline. “Frasier has re-entered the building!”
