    A spin-off from the hugely popular Cheers, Frasier reintroduces us to psychiatrist Frasier Crane who has relocated from Boston to Seattle and now hosts his own radio show. Kelsey Grammer was simply born to play Frasier Crane and this first season, whilst not demonstrating the show at its absolute best, does a great job of expanding his world.

The supporting cast, including his equally pompous brother Niles, down to Earth father Martin and slightly crazy home care worker Daphne are all great additions and the show is consistently funny throughout the entire twenty four episodes on offer here.

    The best comedy ever! From the begin of an episode till the end they always make you laugh. No wonder why this comedy won so many Emmy's! The pilot till the season finale, all episodes are fantastic!

    Classic! what can i say. Smart, witty and excellent ensemble cast. The fact that it is a spinoff of Cheers and one of a minor character from that show. It is the well-written script and the acting that made the show last that long.

    An absolutely fantastic show that is smart, funny, tragic and slapstick all at the same time. But all done with class and a great amount of finesse.

    Overall: Pretty much my favorite comedy show of all time.

    An absolute classic season! Straight from the good son, the pilot episode we begin to adore the cast and learn about Maris. Each episode felt fresh and all made me laugh.

    One of the all time greatest, for a reason. Start from the beginning and binge watch the entire series. It slows down, barely, toward the end, but it picks back up again for a really great final season. The characters and the acting is so good, it's hard to compare another comedy to Frasier. Do yourself a favor and watch it/watch it again.

    Loved all these although haven’t seen every season but season number one was definitely one of my favourites.

    In the tradition of Cheers, the show thrives by selling up distinct, contrary personalities and making them collide for a half-hour each week. So far the writing is sharp and punchy.

    So far, Martin and Daphne have been good for a few solid laughs per show,but the indispensable costar has proven to be Frasier's brother, Niles, played by David Hyde Pierce.

    Frasier at this point seems much more amusing when he's at home contending with his father than when he's at the workplace fielding phoned-in woes. But wherever he is, he's clearly in good hands -- the hands of old pros who still have the brash enthusiasm of young Turks. [16 Sept 1993, p.C1]
