Frasier revival

I guess none of the youngster know that Frasier and Roz once slept with each other on the old show. I was expecting that to come up in the episode.
 
I'm really enjoying this and enjoyed this episode a lot.

The only character I struggle with is Alan. Which is odd as Nicholas Lyndhurst is a favourite of mine having been in 2 of my all time favourite comedies.
 
The romance farce felt like it was cut from the same cloth as the original series with the usual hijinks...and ultimate conclusion.

That said, I was sad for David. He and Alice initially hit it off but then he quickly scared her off by being his usual self. I was really hoping there would be a spark between them but instead it was played against his social awkwardness.

Yeah, I was surprised that didn't come up either. Chalk that up to "Frasier too embarrassed to bring it up" and "Roz burned it from her memory."
 
Damn, I didn't even know about that diagnosis or about her double mastectomy. :(

I'm glad that didn't effect her role and involvement with the show (hopefully true for all other productions she's been working on).
 
I loved the revisit of Seattle, KACL, and the hollowed-out soul of Café Nervosa (I would say the same about KACL but it was always hollowed out...). Loved catching up with Bulldog and Gil, discovering that one was out and proud while the other is still closeted. Loved hearing Carol Burnett's cameo call-in. I especially loved the surprising tribute to Martin Crane and John Mahoney at the end. The show has already done a great job paying tribute to both of them, but this episode was also a sweet touch. A very nice episode of closing the chapter in Seattle, much like Frasier did when Frasier revisited Boston and stopped by Cheers.
 
Is Gil closeted? I can't figure out if the joke is he is closeted and can't admit it or he is actually straight and the joke is people think he is gay and keeps waiting for him to come out and admit it but won't because he isn't gay.

Frasier never stopped by Cheers in Frasier. He did go to cliffs party which had a square shaped bar similar with Carla, Norm Paul and Cliff there.
 
I'd liked to have seen a bit more of Bulldog. I didn't really care for the scenes with Alan and David, didn't seem like they added anything to me.

Nice touch with McGintys, although it wasn't actually Marty's favourite bar, it became so by default when Dukes was knocked down.
 
Kenny left to go be back on radio as a host so it makes sense he wouldn't still be working their. But I to would like to see the character return at some point.
 
Seeing Bulldog having another meltdown was worth the P+ annual pass alone. :guffaw:

Seeing Frasier, Roz., Bulldog and Gil back at KACL was pure joy. :techman:

The final part too where Frasier and Freddie are having a drink at Duke's to honour Martin was nicely done, even though Bulldog pointed out that it's now a gay bar. :D
 
Well, if I recall correctly, he did stop by Cheers before Cliff's party, but it was only referenced in dialogue and not shown to the audience.

I don't recall that, he asked Cliff if it was at cheers and cliff said Sam had it booked out for an event
 
I've been really busy lately and didn't realize the show was back.

Watched 4 episodes so far, and the magic and shenanigans are still there. For me, Alan is just as great a part of the show as Frasier and all the cast has had a very good chemistry from day one.

Is S2 only 10 episodes again, or will there be more?
