Paramount+

“Kelsey made a triumphant return as one of the most iconic and beloved characters on television,” said Jeff Grossman, Executive Vice President, Programming, Paramount+. “The new series introduced Frasier to a whole new generation while reminding fans of Kelsey’s truly timeless portrayal of Dr. Crane. We’re so excited to see what the creative team and superb cast serve up for season two.”

Frasier also stars Jack Cutmore-Scott as Freddy, Frasier’s son; Nicholas Lyndhurst as Alan, Frasier’s old college buddy turned university professor; Toks Olagundoye as Olivia, Alan’s colleague and head of the university’s psychology department; Jess Salgueiro as Eve, Freddy’s roommate; and Anders Keith as David, Frasier’s nephew. Original series cast members Bebe Neuwirth and Peri Gilpin each appeared in an episode in Season 1.

And going forward, when it comes to using the original run’s cast, “anybody that wants to be a part of it, hopefully that’s how we’ll do it,” executive producer and writer Joe Cristalli told TV Insider. EP and writer Chris Harris added that includes anyone from Cheers. “That’s the exciting thing is we have not one but two amazing, legendary classic comedies to draw from and those characters, and we’re excited to fill in the gaps and connect the dots a little bit here and there, hopefully for many seasons, because I’m excited to revisit some of these characters as a fan, not just as a writer,” he shared.

The original Frasier still holds the record for most Emmy wins for a comedy series with 37 wins and 107 nominations.

Frasier on Paramount+ comes from Harris and Cristalli, who executive produce with Grammer, Tom Russo and Jordan McMahon. The series is produced by CBS Studios in association with Grammer’s Grammnet NH Productions.
