I bought the frasier dvd boxset on sale about 15yrs ago thinking I was vaguely into a few episodes when I was younger and maybe I’d enjoy it… it ended up being on literally constant repeat for the next 10yrs. My friends would moan about watching it and I’d be annoyed at having to take a 2hr break to watch a film or something for them. I think of frasier as my dad in many ways as I aspire to be like him. Definitely taught me how to act like a grown up which is ironic considering how much of child he can be lol.
Jetta was originally black but Marvel (who co-produced) at the time had a policy that supervillains couldn’t be black. The comic reboot changed it back to the original concept.
I've always tought that Diane from Cheers would have been perfect for Niles instead of Frasier. Her youthful naivety and charm would be exactly what Niles worships.
