Last week's was a classic, easily equal to anything from the original series. I suppose it did reinforce how much better it is with the classic characters compared to the new ones. I was laughing out loud all the way through at Frasier and Lilith's barbs.
The first two episodes of the second season are out. As with the first series, it's absolutely fine. Serviceable sitcom, but not really Frasier. Nicholas Lyndhurst continues to outshine the entire cast, he is hilarious.
There will be a few more old series cameos this time around as well as Roz
So looking forward to that
As you say Servicable, I'll definitely keep watching
Just caught up with the last two of Season 1 and the first two of Season 2. Hugely enjoyable, with lots of big laughs. The art of pure entertaining escapism is not yet dead!
I'm just getting around to watching the reboot and although it's creaky and corny I am finding myself enjoying it's old school charm. Although some of the sets (the bar, Frasier and Rosdney's office) do seem a bit small.
Being a great Cheers fan I tried watching it the other day but I still couldn't get into it really.
Which series of Frasier Chappers?
The original or reboot?

Maybe we should all shout "Chappers" as you enter the forum each day and go to your favourite seat *

I agree that Cheers is in a class of its own, and as much as I loved Original Frasier I don't think it was ever as good as Cheers. And while Reboot Frasier isn't as good as Original Frasier, I still think it has a certain cheesy charm and comfort quality, with the ocassional moment of genuine inspiration.

Personally, I am completely opposite to that - Frasier was far superior to Cheers

It's a tough one. Both were brilliant in different ways.
The new Frasier is perfectly fine too but not quite in the same league as the others.
