This has what if they made Frasier in 2009 vibes.

Also Frasier was the least good part of Frasier. It's an ensemble, not a character.

I liked Frasier but this feels like resurrecting a beloved relative.

Also Kelsey Grammer is questionable…

It really does. Personally, I ended up being more of a fan of Niles.

They should have used that Sheldon guy.

What makes him questionable?

While he had a moderate Republican vibe on the show... the show was forward thinking like Pro-gay and supported black actors.

He is weirdly religious but been married 4 times.

His fourth wife he met while still married to the third.

Gives me big hypocrite vibes.

My bet is that what constituted appropriate behaviour on set in the original run of Frasier will now get him trouble.

I wish it wasn't on Paramount Plus

Looks like he also plays the Niles super stuffy character too. Not a great change. While he was snooty in the old one his snootyness was casual because Niles did the heavy lifting and his live in dad simply wouldn't have it.
