Freddy's always been an intellectual. It just seems that since his appearances in the original Frasier series, that he's just become less like his dad, more like his granddad in terms of personality. The kid technically won an international spelling bee for example. Freddy has the brains of both his parents but has just chosen to take after his grandpa Martin more.

"Uncle Niles" 😂

Love love love these two cousins ❤❤❤ just adorable characters

LOL when he makes his beer disappear without drinking it and his friends are like, that's enough of that"

Absolutely love Freddie, who’s become the star of the show in recent episodes. Even funnier is Eve and Tiny’s reaction to Freddie’s magic trick at the end 😂

His comedic timing is on par with Kelsey grammar, and he shines very well when doing scenes with him. Whoever says the supporting cast isn’t good in this show is full of it. I’m really enjoying the new ensemble of characters Frasier has to contend with now.

I like freddy and David they seem okay, they've got a nice dynamic. Although I think they could also pass for the sons of Barney and Ted in a HIMYM spinoff, but that's just me.

I can't wait to watch this show in The UK. We get a lot of US imports on British tv. How I Met Your Mother is another good one, but Frasier is a pretty tough act to follow and it's still the top of the pile. I can't even think of any UK sitcoms that are as well written as Frasier.

I like the "drunk genius" B-story. If there are other seasons, I'd like to see this once a year. With that being said... (0:09) Anyone else catch the turn-around time on that new glass of beer? I'm pretty sure that's foreshadowing right there. (0:22) I get chessboard in the bar at Harvard. We had many at Yale. But what the hell is that book back there for? That's not going to be an expensive book in a room full of open containers and that's not going to be a useful book in a room full of acetaldehyde. (1:33) So, everyone loves the magician but it's the assistants who rock. Eve "pours" (the tap handle doesn't move) that "beer" at 0:04 and sets up Freddy. You can see him tipping the actually-empty glass of magic because it's so light prior to hiding it between his legs. Of course, she delivers the towel at 1:23 and that's how they make magic together. (see, now THAT'S foreshadowing)

The writing tries too hard yet misses. The old days of “Oh you Freudian’s, sometimes a ramrod is just a - oh I’m not even going to finish that.” And "Frasier is a Freudian but I am a jungian so there will be no blaming mommy and daddy today" Citing BF skinner might just be as heavy handed writing as freddie's fast drinking is. Except skinner is known most for dismissing ACEs. (I am no expert but I crave a high brow joke) The show plays on public misconception that college papers are just book summaries. Turning Free Will into a parlour game was maybe a nice try but they left me hanging. Even an SAT word drop would ease the cringe a little. maybe. Anyway, this is why the show misses. More Professor Corning, please.

@@kellychuba honestly, I was thinking the same thing as you for weeks, but I really don't think the writing is that bad. the difference is the delivery. That "no blaming mommy and daddy today" isn't even that hilarious, it's the way David Hyde Pierce delivered it that was hysterical. If any of these new characters (other than maybe Alan) delivered that line it would fall deaf. I've given this theory a lot of thought over the last month lol the sharp wit delivery from the original is really missing.

We need more Freddy and David scenes in the next season.

Please tell me a character trait for David, is that like his mom he can think he's a psychic,

The actor who plays Freddie is better than many people may think. He is actually British, and when he is not playing the role of Freddie, he naturally speaks with an English accent. So I find his acting amazing because when he plays Freddie, he has absolutely no trace of his natural English accent at all. To him, he is evidently acting "in an American accent", but to me, as an American, I don't detect an accent at all when he plays Freddie. So that makes me believe that he is an excellent actor.

I get that you don’t like the series, but remember that the original show dedicated plenty of episodes to non-Frasier characters like Martin, Roz, Daphne and Niles. This isn’t something new the writers are doing, to include the lives and drama of Frasier’s family.
