"NO ACTORS WERE HURT DURING THE FILMING OF THIS SCENE" They forgot to mention the hazard of the viewers getting stomach pain from laughing so hard. IT HURTS!!
I like how everyone is shocked and startled except the Cafe Nervosa staff. Like, they've seen Niles and Frasier enough that they aren't surprised by anything anymore lmao.
DHP is amazing at slapstick comedy. I love how he is literally bouncing with excitement as he verbally chastises this guy. Brilliant show. Thank goodness we have eleven seasons to enjoy over and over!
Tait Jones IMO Jim Carey overdid everything. DHP made it look real and didn’t ham it up like Carey does. Now in this scene he did exaggerate a little but it was in keeping with the situation.
"I'm not going to try to explain my behavior by saying that these are stressful times we live in and I'd reached the end of my tether." "No I'm suing you" "But these are stressful times we live in and I'd reached the end of my tether!"
Kelsey Grammar as Hank McCoy and Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier are two examples of *perfect* casting. I can't imagine anyone better suited to the roles.
The whole thing is brilliant but for some reason I laugh hysterically at Frasier throwing him out and screaming “perhaps what you need is an etiquette lesson!!!”. The perfect representation of the frustration that we all feel in these situations.😂😂
If RU-vid and cell phones had been around back then, this would've been a HUGE national story. The media would have a field day with Frasier arguing over whether he was right to manhandle that customer or not. EDIT: Actually, cell phones WERE around back then. But they couldn't record videos or send text messages.
Odd that I had to search it, but I did. Yes, Frasier & Niles could have been text messaging for a full year before this, at least if they had Nokia phones. If they wanted camera phones, they'd have had to wait in line for four years for it to be invented and another five years before putting their vids on RU-vid. ;-)
What' I'd be tempted to do.... "Well, you won't make that mistake again." "Frasier, forget it. We'll just wait for another table." "All right Niles." *spills drink, making sure it gets on the jacket, shirt and pants* "Oh dear, terribly sorry." If time permits, order whatever would stain the worst. Not too hot, in the biggest size they have. Come back to that same spot. Be sure to stand very close to the table so as not to 'make that mistake again.'
Why not just sit at the table with him? Bring up a third chair, continue your convo and ignore the intruder. That way, you get the table, you don't get pushed around, and you don't get manipulated into anger.
I actually had to teach food etiquette and table manners to a 50 year old woman in my class during a lunch break with other classmates of ours. She took her plate and started to eat before the others could get theirs. I had to teach her how to wait until everyone has settled. I'm 21 and know this by heart. Quite embarassing...
