it’s possible for you to argue that Frasier Crane wasn’t even the most popular among them.

After eleven seasons and countless Emmys,Frasierleft NBC in 2004.

Last year, however, it returned on Paramount+.

This time, the strategy didn’t work.

Sadly, Season 2 ofFrasieris more of the same.

Season 1 of theFrasierreboot found him back in Boston and alone again.

One scene even sees Frasier pretending to get an emergency phone call to get out of a date.

That might have been funny decades ago, but now it’s been done ad nauseam in other shows.

The show fired on all cylinders so well that even the dog became a big star.

Sadly, the reboot doesn’t have that.

Tossed salad and scrambled eggs?!

The overall problem with the reboot is thatit suffers when Frasier isn’t on-screen.
