Yahoo Lifestyle Frasier Cancelled After Two Seasons at Paramount+
Sorry, tossed salads and scrambled eggs are no longer on the menu: Paramount+ has cancelled the Frasier revival starring Kelsey Grammer after two seasons, TVLine has confirmed. CBS Studios will shop the series to other platforms, our sister site Variety reports.
Grammer reprised his role as psychiatrist Frasier Crane, a role he originated on Cheers and then continued on his own spinoff Frasier, which ran for 11 seasons on NBC. In the revival, Frasier moved back to Boston to reconnect with his son Freddy, taking a job teaching at Harvard along the way. Jack Cutmore-Scott co-starred as Freddy, with Nicholas Lyndhurst as Frasier’s pal and fellow professor Alan, Toks Olagundoye as department head Olivia, Jess Salgueiro as Freddy’s friend and roommate Eve and Anders Keith as Frasier’s nephew David.

Season 2 debuted on the streamer in September, with Patricia Heaton joining the cast as Holly, a new love interest for Frasier. (Check out our chat with Grammer about Heaton’s addition.) Season 2 also saw Frasier return to his old stomping grounds of Seattle, with cameos from original Frasier cast members Dan Butler (Bulldog) and Edward Hibbert (Gil Chesterton). Peri Gilpin appeared in several Season 2 episodes as well as Frasier’s old friend Roz, following a guest spot in Season 1.
Frasier’s sophomore season wrapped up in November with a Christmas-themed installment where Alan reconnected with his estranged daughter; get our full recap here. Sad to hear that Frasier has left the building? Join us in the comments below to share your thoughts on the news.
