Overview
Frasier is an American television sitcom that aired on NBC for eleven seasons from September 16, 1993, to May 13, 2004. The series was created and produced by David Angell, Peter Casey, and David Lee through Grub Street Productions, with later involvement from Grammnet Productions and Paramount. The program chronicles the life of Dr. Frasier Crane, an eloquently pompous radio show host. After spending many years at the Cheers bar, Frasier moves back to his hometown of Seattle. This transition occurs after his policeman father, Martin, is shot in the hip while on duty. In Seattle, Frasier lives with his father and interacts with his competitive, high-brow brother Niles, his brazen radio producer Roz, and others. The show features a cast including Kelsey Grammer, Jane Leeves, David Hyde Pierce, and Peri Gilpin. Throughout its run, the series became known for its opera references and tossed salads. The show remains available for viewing through various streaming platforms and digital media services.
