The show about that dog...oh and a family too..

Show Rating
*****

Frasier is a sitcom about the lives of pychiatrist Frasier Crane and his family and friends. It is in my opinion, quite simply the best comedy show on TV at the moment. The humour is both intelligent and very subtle and if you take the time to get to know the characters then you will find yourself unable to stop from laughing.

The show's star is Frasier but it is his brother Niles who often manages to steal the show. At first glance it may seem that his character is too similar to Frasier's but the way he is played (almost an extreme version of his brother) is quite wonderful.

With the dad, a cantankorous old moaner, the help Daphne playing her English roots to the full (her relationship with Niles is probably the highlight of the show) and Frasier's producer Ross in the role of a go-getter in more than one sense, the show has one of the best supporting casts it could have.
