Get ready for more “tossed salads and scrambled eggs,” folks. The revival of the hilarious, multi-award-winning series Frasier will be here soon.
The ten-episode first season follows Frasier Crane (Emmy® Award winner Kelsey Grammer) in the next chapter of his life, as he returns to Boston with new challenges to face, new relationships to forge, and an old dream or two to finally fulfill.
It costars Jack Cutmore-Scott (Oppenheimer) as Frasier’s son, Freddy; Nicholas Lyndhurst (Only Fools and Horses) as Frasier’s old college buddy-turned-university professor, Alan; Toks Olagundoye (Castle) as Olivia, Alan’s colleague and head of the university’s psychology department; Jess Salgueiro (Workin’ Moms) as Freddy’s roommate, Eve; and Anders Keith as Frasier’s nephew, David.
Frasier premieres in the US and Canada with two episodes on Thursday, October 12, exclusively on Paramount+, with the series debuting in all other Paramount+ international markets on Friday, October 13. New episodes will drop weekly on Thursdays in the US and Canada, and on Fridays internationally.
On linear TV, the CBS Television Network will broadcast a special airing of the first two episodes back to back on Tuesday October 17, starting at 9:15 PM ET/PT.
Ahead of the series premiere, Entertainment Tonight host Kevin Frazier will give fans a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Frasier, featuring interviews with the cast and series’ creatives. The half-hour special, Frasier: Inside the Series, premieres Friday, October 6, on Paramount+, the service’s official YouTube and Facebook pages, Pluto TV, and Mixible. The special also will air the following day, Saturday, October 7, on select CBS stations nationwide. (Check your local listings.)
Written by Chris Harris (How I Met Your Mother) and Joe Cristalli (Life in Pieces), who executive produce the series with Kelsey Grammer, Tom Russo, and Jordan McMahon, Frasier is produced by CBS Studios, in association with Grammer’s Grammnet NH Productions. The first two episodes of the new series are directed by legendary director and television creator James Burrows, who is best known for his work as co-creator, executive producer and director of the critically acclaimed series Cheers, as well as the original series Frasier, Will & Grace, and Dear John. The series is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution outside of the Paramount+ markets.
