Frasier Reboot official trailer - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Honestly: it looks kinda (very) bad.

Obviously it's difficult to be funny just with the trailer and no sitcom ever won my trust right at this point. But this felt really bad nonetheless. Really like a generic 80s sitcom.

Its weakest point is that unlike the other revival we had thus far (the ones I saw: Roseanne, Gilmore Girls, The X-Files, Mad About You... even Twin Peaks and Deadwood), they changed the rest of the cast and the location.
That's a huge loss because it is like watching something else, there's no nostalgia kicking in and reawakening good memories. What's the point of a revival if not this?

The original show had to deal with Cheers legacy, but what the audience expected back then was different. Also the show was stellar and made you forget about Cheers just with the pilot.
Here the task is even harder, because Frasier has never been a one man show. David and John carried the show just as Kelsey did, and Roz's and Daphne's roles were pivotal; it was the overall chemistry that really elevated the show.

I will give this a chance anyway, and just jope that my impressions are wrong.
Kelsey's career speak fro itself; he's a huge television actor.
Fingers crossed!

There's another commercial playing on Paramount Plus. I'm more encouraged than the post above. It's a 10-episode season, I think Grammer and Nicholas Lyndhurst will be able to carry enough episodes to keep the show going for a while.

I'm glad there are also positive impressions, I really do hope I'm wrong about it
