Frasier: Complete Series 2

Description

Product Description Emmy Award-winner Kelsey Grammer is Frasier, the hilarious psychiatrist first seen on TV's Cheers and subsequently the start of this smash-hit comedy series. Frasier is a half-hour comedy series set in Seattle, WA, which chronicles the lives of an eloquently pompous radio show host Dr. Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer), his brazen radio producer Roz (Peri Gilpin), his competitive, high-brow brother Niles (David Hyde Pierce), their crotchety father Martin (John Mahoney) and Martin’s semi-psychic, live-in home-care provider, Daphne (Jane Leeves). The gang's all here for the complete second season of this wry and witty sitcom. Frasier Crane infuriates the entire city of Seattle when he complains about its rainy climate during his radio talk show. Meanwhile, his father Martin finds his favorite bar is slated for the wrecker's ball -and could it be that Frasier and Niles are behind its demise? Roz considers a new job offer...Daphne finds her privacy invaded...and Frasier's romantic island getaway with a new girlfriend is ruined when his ex-wife is discovered happily ensconced in an adjacent cottage!

Dark Victory desertcart.co.uk Review Frasier picked up its second series with another round of comedy as intelligent as its pompous title character. Fortunately, the sniping between Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) and his father, Marty (John Mahoney), that took up a lot of the first series is mostly past, and the crack ensemble was ready to roll in a number of memorable episodes. Frasier tries to set up Daphne (Jane Leeves) with the new station manager in "The Matchmaker", Frasier, Niles (David Hyde Pierce) and Marty go fishing in "Breaking the Ice", Frasier and Niles jump into politics in "The Candidate", the team of Frasier and Roz (Peri Gilpin) breaks up ("Roz in the Doghouse") and Frasier and Niles open a restaurant in "The Innkeepers". It was Pierce's Niles who emerged as a star in the second series, lusting after Daphne, learning about parenthood in "Flour Child" and challenging a Bavarian fencer for the hand of his ever-absent wife, Maris, in the comic tour de force "An Affair to Forget". Pierce picked up a well-deserved first Emmy and the show repeated its first-series Emmys for comedy series and lead actor. Frasier's dates included Jobeth Williams (whom he takes on a disastrous getaway to Bora Bora), Shannon Tweed and Tea Leoni. Other guest stars were Nathan Lane and, from his original show, Cheers, Bebe Neuwirth and Ted Danson. --David Horiuchi Review: Classic, enduring comedy - Not easy to still make you laugh when you know what's coming but this series can do it. Great cast with sharp writing. Review: Super Comedy. - Classic US comedy that was hugely popular in its day. Well written with very funny story lines . Niles and Frasier are simply superb. Some nice supporting characters as well. Still very watcheable.
