To absolutely love fraiser?

InNeedOfABatcave3 · 02/08/2016 08:18

My dc think I am. They won't even sit in the room when it's on. They say urgh mum you and your bad TV shows and bugger off to their bedrooms. They hate everybody loves Raymond as well.

I'm getting my coffee and croissants ready for my favourite hour in the morning. I love working term time and having enough mornings to waste watching crap TV.

I love Frasier.

OwlinaTree · 02/08/2016 08:22

I love Frasier. Last series not quite as good, but yes I think it's great.

Trying to think of my top Frasier moment...

twopenneth · 02/08/2016 08:24

We both love Frasier in this house. Favourite part is when they're playing Pictionary & he's yelling at Julia. 'And I, my hand towel'

OwlinaTree · 02/08/2016 08:26

The one when he goes to the zoo to meet the crane called Frasier which attacks him is a good one.

The one when he borrows Niles' beach house for the party and there is a dead seal...

Oh the one with the parrot on Niles' head! 'Stephanie's horny', 'Brian is a lush' (something like that)

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 02/08/2016 08:26

Yanbu...it's bloody brilliant! I feel like it hasn't aged and is still funny now...unlike friends (for example) where the jokes involve pagers and current celebrities so 20y later it just isn't as funny (iygwim)

I bloody hate Daphne's family though

OwlinaTree · 02/08/2016 08:27

That's a great episode two!

IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece · 02/08/2016 08:29

High holidays is my favourite, nikes wants to get high so gets a pot brownie that Martin unknowingly eats and replaced with a normal one...so Martin is unknowingly high and niles thinks he is

Or the dead seal

Or when martins gun accidentally goes off because niles can't catch a banana

The most common used phrase in my house is "I'm in a bit of a pickle, well not so much a pickle, more of a cornichon"

woodvillain · 02/08/2016 08:32

I love Frasier! I was given the complete set of DVDs for my birthday and I think it's the best present ever. My favourite episode is 3 valentines and the scene with Niles getting ready in Frasiers flat. Just brilliant!

InNeedOfABatcave3 · 02/08/2016 08:33

They're great owl and two.

I laughed so much yesterday when fraiser invited someone back for dinner to meet daphne and that person was gay. Niles won the coin flip and got to tell fraiser.

This is my absolute favourite clip ever. Utter genius.

InNeedOfABatcave3 · 02/08/2016 08:36

I thought I had seen them all but I've never watched the one where niles thinks he's high and Martin actually is. I need to watch that one!

Yes, like the pp said, it has aged well unlike other 90's shows like friends and Sex and the City etc.

I also love the fact that it's nearly always perpetually Autumn in Fraiser land. Just the colours of the sets and the 90s fashion of bog cable knits, opaque tights, oversized shirts on the women makes me feel all cozy.

CoodleMoodle · 02/08/2016 08:37

Love Frasier. Spent three or so months watching it from start to finish and was lost for a little while when I finished.

Best bit for me is the Christmas one where Frasier has to pretend to be Jewish, and Niles comes in dressed as Jesus...

InNeedOfABatcave3 · 02/08/2016 08:41

that clip

Agree about the dating!

Marmite27 · 02/08/2016 08:44

Air violin!

That is all.

Apart from Eddie is clearly the best character

MrsJoeyMaynard · 02/08/2016 08:52

Love Frasier. Agree it's aged well.

Although Daphne's family are just annoying.

Whinyleonard · 02/08/2016 09:01

The best episode ever is called Boo! And is the one where Frasier fessed up as a clown and gives his dad a heart attack. I fly long haul a lot and it's one of the ones that comes up everywhere. It still makes me laugh after 10 years!

Abby21 · 02/08/2016 09:01

Best sitcom ever!

The one where he sings buttons and bows on the telethon and forgets the words, I laugh like a drain every time.

I know what you mean op, dh and dc absolutely hate it. I'm lying in bed chuckling to it right now.

parisgellar · 02/08/2016 09:09

I adore Frasier. So funny. It started before I was even born but I still enjoy it, I think it's timeless. I watched the whole series while on maternity leave, then again when it started again!

Makes me laugh until I cry, so many fantastic episodes.

I love episodes with Bebe particularly - "She has no scruples, no ethics, and no REFLECTION!"

LittleLionMansMummy · 02/08/2016 09:13

Yep, another one who loves it! In fact it's the only American sitcom I can happily watch. It's very clever and the characters are just fabulous. Daphne is awesome.

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 02/08/2016 09:15

One of my favourite shows ever! I used to like Raymond too but its quite dated now.
