Other celebrities who had guest-starring or recurring roles on Frasier: Harriet Sansom Harris, John Glover, Nathan Lane, Mercedes Ruehl, Tony Shalhoub, Jane Kaczmarek, Robert Prosky, Megan Mullaly, Marsha Mason, Sela Ward, Lisa Edelstein, Teri Hatcher, Eva Marie Saint, Saul Rubinek, Amy Brenneman, Katie Finneran, Jane Adams, S.

As long as you're on a Frasier kick, how about the top 10 celebrity callers for Frasier? The ones that you can only tell by voice? I know there were quite a few, but offhand I can only remember Jay Leno.
I can't believe that it's been 30 years since Frasier initially debuted. I'm looking forward to seeing the reboot, and having Kesley Grammar return to his iconic role.
I don't think it's needed, and I'm concerned honestly. I hope this isn't just a fad where when the novelty wears off, regret will be all that's left. Conversely though, if well done, it will certainly be a fun, exciting addition, which definitely feels possible. ... Huh, I've actually excited myself a bit with my own statement. Damn, I'm good!
'Cheers' was filmed on the same lot as 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' (where Patrick Stewart played 'Capt. Jean-Luc Picard'), and Kelsey Grammar being a big ST fan, got to be on TNG in the episode called 'Cause and Effect' as 'Capt. Morgan Bateson'. I guess Grammar later repaid Stewart by having hin on 'Frasier'. And then later starred in the 'X-Men' movies together.
Great idea for a list! I also enjoyed Jean Smart, Elvis Costello, Kim Coles, Marsha Mason, Alan Cumming, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Aaron Eckhart, Luis Guzman, Kristen Chenoweth, James Earl Jones, Felicity Huffman, Gary Cole, Julia Sweeney, Tony Shalhoub & Anthony LaPaglia, among others.
Even though Laura Linney was only in five episodes, she was still iconic as Frasier's final love interest on the show. I wonder if she will appear in the reboot?
They bring his son back, played by a different actor...and totally.not the same character at all. That's where the reboot fails for me. Lilith would never have stood for her son dropping out of Harvard to become a fireman🎉
david ogden stiers (mash) guest starred one episode as a friend of martin's late wife who martin suspects that he may be a biological father to his sons.
I wouldn't say Laura Linney's appearance was 'forgotten', since her character was substantially responsible for how the show ended. I think Patrick Stewart would hardly have been 'forgotten', either in the context of the show or by those who knew him for his other work? A on-performer playing themselves doesn't really count as a 'star' in this context: You might have mentioned John Glenn. Tea Leoni? Jennifer Beals? Sara Silvermann? Piper Laurie? Patrick MacNee? Brent Spiner?
Wild Kelsey was on an episode of Star Trek TNG. Just so happens; Bebe Neuwirth, Brent Spiner, René Auberjonois, Nana Visitor, Robert Picardo, and Patrick Stewart crossed over. I could list more, it would include Cheers.
Not sure who my favorite guest star{s} on Frasier is/are, but I feel they left two good ones out, Sir Derek Jacobi, and Brian Bedford { RIP the greatest Robin Hood there ever was or will be } .
From what I read of the reboot it takes place in Boston and Frasier is still single So it is assumed that things didn't work out Either she rejected him when he gets to Chicago or there relationship just doesn't work out Either way Laura Linney doesn't appear in the reboot 🤨
They explain in one throw away line in the first episode what happened...a long relationship just ended and he fled back to Boston (some crap wiring on the new show)
"Do you have any idea what it's like to play the same character for twenty years?" lol
Some of his caller are famous people that you would never know until you were told
100% agree, Patrick Stewart was the best guest on Frasier. That is one of the funniest episodes.
That was Jennifer Beals on the plane to Chicago!

Frasier ❤ Best show ever
As long as you're on a Frasier kick, how about the top 10 celebrity callers for Frasier? The ones that you can only tell by voice? I know there were quite a few, but offhand I can only remember Jay Leno.
Good idea!
EVH was a caller on the first season
Nearly everybody who was anybody was a guest caller
Makaulay Culkin, Ben Stiller, Gilkian Anderson, Art Garfunkel and Joe Pesci are a few I can remember
Robbie Coltraine was in the series finale as one of Daphne's brothers
Linda Hamilton was also in one episode.
Richard E. Grant also played one of Daphne's brothers.
Emma Thompson actually couldn't reprise her role as Nanny G on Frasier because she was filming the movie Nanny McPhee at the time.
I can't believe that it's been 30 years since Frasier initially debuted. I'm looking forward to seeing the reboot, and having Kesley Grammar return to his iconic role.
Oh cool, I hadn't heard about a Frasier reboot. Thanks for mentioning that.
I can't wait to see Fraiser to come back as well!

But Frasier isn't well.done. The new writers got very lazy and changed his son to be more like his dad 🙄
I just started watching the show again. It’s funnier now that I understand the humor compared to when I was a kid
The Doctor is Out is my ALL time fav Frasier episode with Patrick Stewart
My 12th grade English teacher showed our class the "Mamma Mia" episode after we read Oedipus The King in class.

I keep forgetting Frasier is Beast
Other forgotten Frasier guest stars did we missed:
Rosie Perez
Nathan Lane
Brian Cox
Dr. Phil McGraw
Aaron Eckhart
etc.
There was also Jane Kaczmarek in one episode. She would later get the part of Lois on "Malcolm in the Middle".
@@bluebear1985 Yep!
Teri Hatcher.
Teri Polo

I don't think she will.
I sure hope not. I hated her character
Best comedy show ever!! I'm not too excited for the reboot. Frasier is the only one returning. I'll still check out an episode. I am curious.😊
They bring his son back, played by a different actor...and totally.not the same character at all. That's where the reboot fails for me. Lilith would never have stood for her son dropping out of Harvard to become a fireman🎉
3:34 That sounded like a subtle jab at Kelsey Grammar's career. Was it that long he played the role of Dr. Frasier Crane?
This is absolutely a bit of meta humor thrown in. I remember laughing my head off the first time I saw that episode.
Yes. They continue these in jokes in the new series, but it's easy more forced
Defenitely Mercedes Ruehl !
Please, make a list of top 10 episodes!
david ogden stiers (mash) guest starred one episode as a friend of martin's late wife who martin suspects that he may be a biological father to his sons.
I love your voice Rebecca you are a very great narrator lol..👍
I'd replace a few of these with Anthony LaPaglia who portrayed Daphne's brother Simon
Anthony LaPaglia as Simon Moon is my absolute favorite. I never get tired of watching Simon

9:10 Of course he would be on _Frasier._ No surprise considering he's a Seattlite.
Someone who's very much forgotten is Brittany Murphy.
I do love Patrick Stewart ❤
What if Kelsey Grammer Narrated USA Dub Of Thomas & Friends
Nice, have a happy thursday afternoon, Rebecca. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
The late lamented Annie Wersching made an early one shot of Frasier as an esthetician.
How about Victor Garber, who played a British Butler?
can you guys do top ten best romance kdramas?? I rly need to see it T-T
Another ORIGINAL idea from Hollywood
It's not as bad as And Just Like That, but they do ruin a legacy by updating a character...
No mention of Piper Laurie???
You missed Jean Smart!!!
no love for jennifer beals lol?

When it comes to Zooey Deschanel, I never forget.
Also, my favourite guest gotta be Sir. Patrick Stewart
Zooey is adorable with blonde hair! 💖
