Without anyone to offset Frasier with some comedic heft of their own, the reboot is the equivalent of salad, minus eggs.
-
It’s one thing to say that the new Frasier is missing the chemistry between the cast members that made the original series so special. But it also tries way too hard to parallel the original in the most crucial spots, making it painful to watch at times, and not nearly as funny as it could be.
-
The show strains to find reasons to throw these characters together in humorous situations. .... The writing, in other words, disappoints. Gone is the fizzy dialogue of Frasier’s heyday, replaced by dated “Baby Shark” gags and broad exchanges.
-
The whole endeavor feels like a very superficial read of what makes the character, and what made the Nineties version of Frasier, work.
-
This new “Frasier” is no old “Frasier.” It’s as bad and cringeworthy as you could possibly imagine.
