It's cool if you just decide that Frasier had a psychotic break and Boss is the continuation of his life in Chicago.

i loved Grammer's portrayal as a supremely corrupt and disturbingly powerful politician, but i think the story about Tom Kane's mental deterioration just wasn't well-developed enough; it always took a backseat to the political intrigue, at least from my perspective. if the show had made it a story about Tom Kane's grasp on power slipping away due to other issues (family, skeletons in the closet, w/e) that probably would have been more compelling; alternately a show more focused on Kane's grasp on reality slipping away could have been more insightful. instead i feel like they tried to do both and didn't really adequately fulfill either. maybe they could have done both if they'd had more episodes in the season to work with, who knows.

crazy eyes mustafa posted:It’s worth it for Frasiers death glare when Martin sits in the eames recliner The joke would've worked a lot better without that long, climactic speech Martin did in the first season about how his chair was the one remnant of his old life, how it was tied up with the most precious memories a man could ever have, and how no god drat leather recliner could ever even come close.

I rewatched the finale for the first time in years due to the recent posts and it was great! The part where they all think Frasier is going to die is very funny. Also did Frasier leave KACL without giving proper notice?? That's a dick move.

He was getting sicker towards the end of season two, so I assume if they’d continued the show he would have deteriorated more. I liked Boss and thought it’d be the kind of political drama that’d run for several seasons. But they cut it off on that cliffhanger, agh.

I remember the early chair-replacing episode was in like, the first season or third, at most? Would make sense that as he's gotten used to living with Frasier, Marty becomes less insecure about his situation and willing to give change a try when it happens on his own terms.

When they take out that Hispanic politician was one of the creepier death scenes of that nature I've seen.

Makes it look like Frasier is calling out Niles in the ring. I want to see this episode. And WWE's done weirder crossovers.

One of them is kind of stupid, and the whole scene unfolds with a tedious inevitability.

No one tried to hide any of this poo poo. Grammer's "scandals" were all widely reported when Cheers was still on the air. Besides, Grammer's darkest "secret" is he's a Trump supporter.

Teriyaki Hairpiece posted:Some episodes of the later seasons remind me of this joke: I feel like Season 1-6 are rock solid, the middle seasons are too "dramatic" (the whole Daphne/Niles romance arc sucked the air out of the show), and the last two seasons are generally kind of funny but basically trying to grab some Seinfeld absurdism mojo, a kind of decaf version of the real thing. That parking garage episode plays like the most tedious Curb Your Enthusiasm episode ever. Bonus bullshit opinion: Cheers has a much better overall run, and is probably the greatest three-camera sitcom ever made. At its best, Frasier is a sequel of Cheers with fewer gut laughs and a little more forced poignancy. I still like it though. It's soothing.
