Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammar), renowned Boston psychiatrist and regular patron of the bar known as Cheers, has decided to pick up and start anew in Seattle, where he hosts a radio show. Residing in a luxury high rise apartment with his retired cop father Martin (John Mahoney), his prim and proper brother Niles (David Hyde Pierce), his father's physical care assistant, Daphne (Jane Leeves), and a charismatic Jack Russell terrier named Eddie, Frasier's life is populated with at least as many colourful characters as he was surrounded by back in Boston. Picking up the slack upon the departure of Cheers from American television in 1993, Frasier is a prime example of smart television comedy. This set includes all 24 episodes from the first series.

Thanks to sharp writing and a pitch-perfect ensemble cast, Frasier became one of the smartest and funniest television shows of the 1990s. Following the 1993 demise of Cheers, Diane's fussy psychiatrist boyfriend, Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer), seemed an unlikely candidate for a spin-off series, yet the show earned smash ratings and dozens of Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Lead Actor (Grammer) in the very first season. In an inspired bit of casting, Grammer was matched with David Hyde Pierce as his brother and fellow psychiatrist Niles, and the rest of the players included his radio-program manager, Roz (Peri Gilpin), his father, Marty (John Mahoney), his father's physical therapist, Daphne (Jane Leeves), and the dog Eddie (Moose). In the first season, Frasier and Marty try to learn how to coexist in the same apartment; Niles and Daphne spend a stormy evening in Niles's house; Frasier acquires pushy agent Bebe (Harriet Sansom Harris) and searches for love with Amanda Donohoe among others; his ex-wife Lilith (Bebe Neuwirth) makes a guest appearance; the family takes a cross-country trip in a Winnebago; and the two brothers collaborate on a book. --David Horiuchi
