4/29/18. I hate to admit this but I binge-watched the entire series this month! While it was 11 seasons long, mercifully, the episodes were short, so you can watch about 3 episodes an hour. I originally watched the character, Frasier on Cheers and found him to be an insufferable snob. Only Lillith made him tolerable. Neuwirth was so good in that role. Glad they brought her back to guest star in this series. But because this series lasted 11 seasons I figured it had to be good to last this long. I was glad I took the time to watch this. It is a well-written and well-produced sitcom with a nice blend of characters that counter-balanced one another. Frasier continues to be a snob, but he meets his match with his brother, Niles, who is a much nicer person but just as snobby as Frasier. Their father, Martin, is the stablizing factor in the rivaling siblings. It's so incredible for such a down-to-earth man to have these 2 sons, but many working-class parents can identify with him when they have college-educated children who all of a sudden act like they are too good and too smart to hang with their parents. Daphne adds a nice comedic touch who offers a more refined perspective but is never accepted as an equal until she marries Niles. And, finally, Roz, who is my favorite character, adds the touch of reality the boys need to be somewhat likable. The ending was good. This is a series worth catching.
score 8/10
