10 Reasons Cheers Will Always Be Better Than Frasier
Kelsey Grammer's Frasier may have more Emmy wins, but its parent series, Cheers will always be better than the Seattle-based spin-off sequel.
Frasier (1993)
Fraiser is a comedy-drama sitcom that stars Kelsey Grammer as a psychiatrist who takes up the role of a radio show host in Seattle after his life in Boston is upheaved. A spin-off of the series Cheers, Fraiser follows the titular character adjusting to the single life while caring for his father (a retired police officer,) his brother, and other eccentric co-workers. The series was brought back on Paramount+ for new seasons as a soft reboot in 2023.
