No Track Information Available Media Type: DVD Artist: FRASIER Title: FINAL SEASON Street Release Date: 11/16/2004 Genre: TELEVISION Amazon.com: Midway through Frasier's redemptive final season (which earned Emmys for Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde Pierce), Martin Crane (John Mahoney) reassures his son, "Just when you think that you're in a rut and nothing exciting will ever happen again, pow, that's when it does." The same could have been said of Frasier's redemptive final season. Not that the multi-Emmy-honored series had ever really jumped the couch, but by its 11th season, it had lost some of its sparkle. And then, POW! Veteran Frasier writers Christopher Lloyd and Joe Keenan return to the fold. POW! Wendie Malick joins the seamless ensemble as brash lounge singer Ronee Lawrence, who becomes a love interest for Martin. POW! Daphne (Jane Leeves), underutilized since her marriage to Niles, becomes pregnant. POW! Frasier opens his own private practice. POW! Laura Linney guest stars as Charlotte, who becomes the hapless Frasier's own Miss Right. The series also benefited greatly from a stellar roster of character actors, who rose to the occasion of this gold standard series' final year. Penny Johnson (24), Sarah Silverman (School of Rock), and Dan "Homer Simpson" Castellaneta christen Frasier's couch in the episode, "The Return of Maris." Jennifer Tilly is at her ditzy, delectable best as a pick-up in "Miss Right Now." Laurie Metcalf replaces Emma Thompson as Frasier's first wife, children's entertainer Nanny G, in "Caught in the Act." Always welcome are Bebe Neuwirth as Lilith ("Guns 'N Neuroses") and Harriet Sansom Harris as Frasier's unscrupulous agent Bebe (the series finale, "Goodnight, Seattle"). But Frasier was never about stunt casting. It's the writing, stupid, which, actually, was anything but. Episodes such as "Boo," "The Doctor Is Out," "Coots and Ladders," and "Caught in the Act" recapture Frasier's unique blend of wit and farce. The series finale, in which relationships take a significant turn and Frasier finally breaks out of that rut to follow his heart, is as satisfying as fans could wish. --Donald Liebenson Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Frasier_The Complete Final SeasonWith the original writers back this final season was fantasic. It was hilarious. JMM Rating: - FrasierI own all of the Frasier DVDs. They are so much fun to watch and NO COMMERCIALS! Rating:  - Frasier Final SessonAn excellent but necessary end to this long running Show. A worthy finale and an enjoyable finish. Rating: - Frasier - So Sad to See You GoThis completes my collection of the Frasier series. It finishes with class intelligent writing, as the entire series was for 11 years. All good things must come to an end, but I'm glad that I have the entire series on hand to view again and again. Thank you Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde-Pierce for the best actor chemistry in years! Rating: - ending an EraIt was sad to see this show end. I have been a fan since the beginning. The writing is fantastic and the humor is timeless, a true art. There are very few shows that have captured my interest as well as my heart for so long. |
