Interview with Grammer, and some details…as well as a new cast member/character:
https://variety.com/2024/tv/features/kelsey-grammer-frasier-family-kids-political-jokes-1236022933/

Casting Grammer's real-life daughter as Roz's daughter, Alice, makes me wonder if they're considering a reveal of Frasier being Alice's real father.  

Quote

…In Season 2, Roz is contemplating leaving Seattle and we get to meet her daughter, played by Grammer’s own daughter, Greer. (Here’s the character description: “Now in her late twenties, friendly, outgoing Alice has inherited more than some of her mother Roz’s free-spirited ways. Having just moved to Providence to study architecture, Alice is eager to catch up with Frasier’s son Freddy—and complicate whatever romantic plans he may have.”)…

Meh.

Patricia Heaton Joins ‘Frasier’, Reuniting With Kelsey Grammer

"she will play Holly who is down-to-earth, unpretentious, and openly mocking of overly-intellectual types. A Boston native who tends bar at upscale restaurants and events, Holly is extraordinarily comfortable with both who and where she is in life, a quality that the always-climbing, always-reaching Frasier (Grammer) finds as alien as he does attractive."

 

While she sounds like the opposite of Diane...having him get involved with another Boston barmaid?

So Patricia Heaton and Kelsey Grammer worked together on Back To You; then Kelsey's daughter, Greer Grammer had a recurring role on Patricia's show (The Middle); and now they're all going to be on Frasier. Am I missing any more connections?

Ooh!  Ooh!  I have one!  She had a one-season series where she went back to school to become a doctor (Carol’s Second Act - I had to look it up) and he was in the last episode as her ex.

Apparently he has a type?

I always loved Gil.

He was such a great supporting character. "Romping with my school chums..."

My other favorite Gil moment was in the episode with the good looking Clint Webber. 

Quote

 

Gil: I must confess, I didn't notice he was all that handsome.

Roz: You didn't notice? You of all people?

Gil: Just what are you insinuating?

Roz: Well, you know, you're a little... er....

Gil: For your information, I happen to be a happily married man.

Frasier: You're... married?

Bulldog: To a woman?

Gil: Of course to a woman! You've all heard me mention Deb. Well, how often have I said, "I must be running along now, Deb will be waiting."

Roz: We thought Deb was your cat.

Gil: She is not a cat! She is Mrs. Gilbert Leslie Chesterton, a Sarah Lawrence graduate, and the owner of a very successful auto body repair shop. Honestly, the conclusions people make, just because a man dresses well and knows how to use a pastry bag!

 

I absolutely LOVE the way he delivers the line "She is not a cat" 🤣

That was the first Gil quote I thought of it. It's from one of my absolute favorite episodes of the series. I'm curious to see how they bring the characters back and what they are doing.

Now, did he start it, “Hi-ho, I’m the ice cream man ... ?"

(Or did Niles say that as one of the characters in his classic bursting-the-balloons rant?  Either way, I just love it when they threw in these random British-sounding expressions, even for the non-British characters.)

Wow, that's actually spot on casting for her daughter. Will be fun to see Bebe back, and curious to see what she's like with her daughter.

Seems like the fact that no one has started a topic for ep4 is indicative: for me, this season has been just awful. Cringe.

I just created one. It's easy and anyone can do it.

To quote Fawlty Towers, I recommend the self-service here, it's excellent! 😉

Yeah. I haven’t watched it yet. Thanks.

What do we think the chances of renewal are? While the episodes have improved slightly I don’t see this on any streaming charts and doesn’t that normally dictate renewal?

Does Paramount+ have a Top 10 streaming chart for its service like Netflix and Amazon Prime do?  That's the only Top 10 that will truly give an indication about how this is performing.

For the other independent charts like Nielson, Paramount+ shows won't compete because it's not big enough.  Netflix usually dominates those charts with a Amazon Prime or massive Peacock hit thrown in every now and then.

It’s number six on the paramount app. Two spots behind OG Frasier. It’s hard to tell though if that matters as there’s barely any original or new content on the paramount app.
