Frasier




Frasier is a tele series I strongly recommend to every one. I first watched it about 5 years ago when it started airing it on Star World. But the succeeding seasons were not regularly aired.

Thanks to isohunt and Hathway, I have been hooked now for past 3 months
It is a humor based series about the life of a radio psychiatrist (Frasier) interspersed with his brother,father,maid and producer.

What has me hooked to Frasier is the kind of humor. It is a highly intellectual, hardly anything vulgar or below the belt. People who enjoy satire or irony will love it. Apart from the refreshing genre of humor, I am sure what gets you hooked is that you start seeing parts of yourself in Frasier and his family.

It could range from waiting forever to tell some gal that you are crazy about her ever since you met her to wanting to belong to a royal family and desire to be addressed as "His Royal Highness" or the love for your parents where you want them to live with you or the desire to hob nob with the top echelons of the society...to being recognized as a popular figure.
The sibling relationship depicted between Frasier and Niles is a never-seen-on-TV before kind.
Here too the series stands like a mirror. I am the elder brother and I see myself in Frasier. My roomie (who is now even more hooked thanks to yours truly) is a younger sibling and sees himself in Niles.

Kudos to the writers for weaving our dormant aspirations into such a fantastic story.

So the next time you decided to download Lost or Prison Break, do search for "Frasier" an start from Season 1..let me know if you don't like it

Until next post then..take care
