At the risk of downvotes... Frasier is a better show. And Kelsey Grammar is longtime based.

Yes, it’s better as an adult. Wickedly intelligent and hilarious, which is made better because the premise of the show is intellectual self-deprecation. Even just the idea of a successful adult man living with his dad makes such a great narrative point. Grammar and David Hyde Pierce alone put on a GOAT acting clinic for 264 episodes. Definitely give it a watch if you’re interested.

yea its great, ignore the "pretension" and just enjoy a great tv show. its got the dad whos a red blooded police officer shot and his sons help look after him

it makes jokes at all people.

one episode spolier- a great episode is about a mayor candidate who fraiser supports (very liberal) and his dad supports a trump like guy. well the lib confides in fraiser that hes was abducted by aliens.....truthfully really thinks it happened. then on his show fraiser hears others talking about the lib and the alien, fraiser goes on his show and starts talking about how "so what if he thinks he was abducted by aliens that shouldnt matter" ect ......then learns it they thought he had an illegal alien working for him. lol

the end joke was the lib guy losing bigly and then saying hey i might run in California, i hear its might even help me

thats a taste of 1 episode. you have to really give it a chance. its not really a political show but today would be seen has right wing. its my show i watch to just relax and remember when tv was about life not pushing 1 far left view.

i also recommend cheers (fraiser character comes from that show, fraiser is the spin off but you dont need to see it. i think fraiser is a much funnier and heartfelt show but both are good)

hope you give it a try

anyone have a tv watch guide?

Pretension is the whole point! They’re making fun of pretentious liberal elites with that show

I'm not a fan of sitcoms in general, but Frasier is one that I enjoy.
