Oh great. "Frasier" is being rebooted this year.

Looks like the comedy is thrown out the window.

Going to be a drama. (I think)

1. That video is a spoof

But a very good one!

2. You sure?

Kelsey Grammer says he is rebooting Frasier.

4. KG is a big time Republican. I didn't even like him before I knew that.

5. The article clearly states if ithappens

It will be a sitcom, the video that has been going around shows Frazier turning into a mob boss. Everyone in it is far too young, it took clips from earlier shows and stitched them in. It’s quite clever, and, I suppose was inspired by the rumors in this article.

3. I really enjoyed "Fraiser"...

Hopefully, all the main cast return.

11. Yes, I remember the article about Eddie's passing, it was back in the '90s

And of course the Dad, always a favorite character.

6. I watched the show back when it was on. I don't mind the idea.

They'd really have to get the core of the old cast back for it to be a success, though, I think.

9. "Frasier" the show, and character, are pretty much are played-out IMO

Let's remember it as it was -- funny and well-produced.

10. I was a big fan

of the show even though I couldn't stand Cheers, except for Shelley Long. I was never happy with the way the show ended but maybe a one shot special would be a better idea. I wasn't aware that KG was a rightie. If that is true I would rather see another actor portray Frazier because I could care less if all Republicans dropped off the face of the earth.

12. David Pierce, however, is both a liberal and gay. And he and Kelsey Grammer were friends.

My mother was David's Sunday school teacher, so she was a big fan of the show. She also volunteered at the local hospital and ran into David when he came to visit his own Mom when she was hospitalized. Unfortunately, his Mom died and Kelsey Grammar is listed on the wall of donors in the hospital lobby. So they were not only friends, but obviously remained in touch.

13. Grammer is one of those who tags himself "Economically conservative, socially liberal".

Hoping we won't notice that conservative economic policies are inherently regressive, and cause a lot of suffering for people who weren't paid a million dollars for a half-hour's work.
