Kelsey Grammer returns as Dr. Frasier Crane, first introduced on Cheers as a local Boston-area psychiatrist. His spinoff, Frasier, took him to Seattle, where his father (John Mahoney) and brother (David Hyde Pierce) lived.

Crane became a radio call-in host on the spinoff. The plot of Crane's journey back to Boston remains under wraps, but the announcement confirmed some new characters and one returning character.

Jack Cutmore-Scott will play Freddy, Crane's son with ex-wife Lilith, now an adult. Nicholas Lyndhurst will play Alan, a university professor Crane knew in college.

Toks Olagundoye will play the head of the psychology department. Jess Salguerio will play Freddy's college roommate.

Crane will have a nephew, David, played by Anders Keith.

Grammar first expressed interest in a Frasier revival in 2019. Paramount+ greenlit the series in 2021.

CBS Studios produced Frasier though it aired on NBC. ViacomCBS also owns Paramount+.
