I liked Frazier too. In fact I once in a while call it up on Hulu and watch an episode.

Would you really want to meet a Nils or Dr Crane though? Good grief, both of them would have me wanting to strangle them in under one minute. The dad can drive you bonkers too, if you take it too seriously.

The same thing for the Seinfeld characters. I still found them funny, because we all know people just like them.

Besides, the situations were actually the stars of that program. Each situation was something I could easily identify with, because I had seen so many of them in my life at some point.

No, Modern Family has an agenda. That agenda is more important than the entertainment to the cast. I won’t play along with that.

The Left can pull their shenanigans all they want. And if the advertisers don’t want my money, they’ll let them get away with it.

Ditto that!

I refuse to watch even a trailor as the message of homosexuality lifestyle is not just OK, it is to be celebrated. Absolutely disgusting!

Sad...since Julie Bowen has been totally hot in a "girl-next-door" kinda way since I first saw her in "Happy Gilmore".

What was fun about Frasier is that he and Niles would always get their comeuppance. And the father was there to reinforce the lessons learned. Of course, by next week whatever lessons were learned were forgotten and the brothers would get into trouble again.

Niles mellowed somewhat when he and Daphne finally got together. And Frasier lost some of his pomposity when he finally found the love of his life. These were signals that the show was coming to an end. Without that snobbery, the show wouldn't last much longer.

By the way, a little trivia: John Mahoney, who played the father, is in real life a gourmet and wine connoisseur. David Hyde Pierce (Niles) went to Mahoney for advice on fine wine as part of developing the Niles character.
