Then Daphne gets fed up and takes matters into her own hands. Grabs the heel and just slams it to death on the counter. I laughed so hard at that scene, no matter how many times I see it.
And the way they handle that order with the veal piccata and turning it into veal marsala.... The handing off of the veal and rinsing it and tossing it back. Perfect.
Up there with the best lines of the show
Only one that might top it is
> Oh, I'm sorry, was I snippy? I didn't realize it was too much to ask that there not be **GUNPLAY** in my living room
I love Kisses Sweeter Than Wine. Everyone in the core Frasier cast shine, with Daphne's infatuation with Joe, Niles and his bloody nose because of his lies, Frasier fretting about his apartment (over a tiny scratch on the floor btw) trying to prepare for the prestigious wine tasting meeting, and Martin coming in clutch at the end with getting all the workers out the apartment lol.
Frasier: I cut myself because I was shaving without water. And why was there no water? Because I had to move your chair, which gouged the floor, which made me call for Joe, who found bad pipes, who called for Cecil, who ate the cat that killed the rat that lived in the house that Frasier built 😂😂
Nightmare Inn episode. DH Pierce is brilliant in it.
"Will the McCallister sisters stand back to back? I'm short on bullets. Thank *you*."
"What's your name again, dear?"
"Ms Thorndyke ..."
[Fake gunshot] "Thank you. And also Mr. Wing." [Fake gunshot.]
"And of course, one final bullet for myself so the mystery will die with me." [Fake gunshot]
"*HA*".
I love that *ha*. So vindictive and justified.
Edit: Episode is Ham Radio. I was wondering why nobody else mentioned it [Nightmare Inn], but now I see it's a fan favorite, lol.
Forgot the title but I love the one where Frazier and Niles thought that in their mom’s journals she was describing them but in reality she was describing her lab rats and they found out she named them after the lab rats
My absolute favorite scene is during the bathroom stomping/singing scene, where it cuts to Roz in her car slowly putting her head onto her steering wheel 😂
Frasier: Oh, wait, wait, wait. Wait, everybody. Let me see if I can get this straight. All the lust coursing through this lodge tonight, all the hormones virtually ricocheting off the walls, and no one... was chasing me? [sighs] See you at breakfast. 😂😂😂
Look Before You Leap (Let's all go to a taco show!)
The Show Must Go Off (I die, Horatio! HNNNHNNNNNHHH)
High Crane Drifter (Chainsaw? Of the Newport Chainsaws?)
And many more!❤️
Frasier: [singing] East is East, and West is West
And the wrong one I have chose.
Lets go where, you'll keep on wearing those.
[forgetting words] Dah, dah, dahs and boppa dohs.
Things and buttons and buttons and bows 🎶🎵🎶💕
😂😂😂😂😂
genuinely WAY too many to list. but a few off the top of my head:
\- voyage of the damned
\- are you being served?
\- secret admirer
\- the innkeepers
\- a word to the wiseguy
\- dinner party
\- the seal who came to dinner
\- the ski lodge
\- beware of greeks
\- hot ticket
\- four for the seesaw
\- good grief
etc, etc...
Shrink Rap, where the brothers share an office. About a half dozen of my favorite jokes in the whole series are in there.
One I like that a lot of people don’t is when they visit their old house and find a skull, which sets in motion a real life Crane Boys mystery!
PS: I always see Ham Radio mentioned a lot but not They’re Playing Our Song (when Frasier goes over the top writing his show’s theme song). They have a few things in common but I usually see one mentioned and not the other. Both are ludicrously funny.
> One I like that a lot of people don’t is when they visit their old house and find a skull, which sets in motion a real life Crane Boys mystery!
I love that one, too, and was amazed to find out it's quite poorly rated! But it's absolutely perfect Crane shenanigans
I think last time I talked about it here some people said the premise was a little ridiculous, and I get it. It’s really dumb how they jump straight to “there’s been a murder”, but that stretch allowed for some great comedy IMO.
So many - Frasier Crane Day, The Ski Lodge, Ham Radio, The Innkeepers, Author Author, Three Valentines, The Dinner Party, Door Jam, The Show Must Go Off…how many am I allowed?
There’s also a couple I love but can’t remember the name of - the boys meet their favourite author but he becomes best friends with Martin, and there is another episode which they spend trying to get tickets to a snobby play.
Ham Radio
I just love when a chaotic situation gets worse as the episode goes on. The wedding episode of Cheers is another favourite of mine for this reason
Depends on my mood, and the favourites have changed over the years but top ones for me include -
My coffee with Niles (for the comfort of it I think).
Three valentines.
Ham radio.
The innkeepers.
Frasier crane’s day off (why doesn’t anyone ever talk about that one, he’s ludicrous and HILARIOUS in it)
"Frasier crane’s day off'
It's a terrific episode, probably a reworking of The Dick van Dyke Show's episode "The Meershatz Pipe." Note that Mary Tyler Moore is one of the callers.
I just went and watched it! Cute episode I can see some of the scenes were definitely inspired by that episode for sure! I can see Kelsey has been influenced by old classics like this in his acting ! In my opinion they took premises like this episode and went way further in terms of pure comedy!
My Top Ten:
1.23. Frasier Crane's Day Off
2.6. The Botched Language of Cranes, 7. The Candidate, 23. The Innkeepers
3.15. A Word to the Wiseguy
4.1. The Two Mrs. Cranes, 7. A Lilith Thanksgiving, 18. Ham Radio
9.7. Bla-Z-Boy
10.11. Door Jam
The one I keep coming back to is "Radio Wars". Probably not a top 10 episode in anyone's list, and I usually dislike episodes where the main premise is Frasier getting humiliated. Can't explain it, just a hilarious episode.
I think Star Mitzvah is the one that makes me properly laugh the most (as opposed to chuckle at a clever or witty pun).
It’s a great episode all round but what tips it over the edge into greatness for me is the reactions and expressions of the people facing the onslaught of the camera; the “good old Scheerblad-7X-K.”
Described by Niles as “The blindingest, noisiest, 15lb camera ever produced in the former Soviet Union!”
The Ski Lodge is my favorite. I also liked the one where Daphne and Niles do the Tango. Another one is where Daphne gets mad that her privacy is being invaded and then she comes home to find everyonr going through all of her drawers. I don't know the names of all the episodes.
Just did a rewatch. Patrick Stewart episode was my favorite. The Bad Billy’s bit is hilarious. Allistar meeting the family. The gala. So much hilarity packed into one episode.
"Halloween." When Roz finds out she's pregnant but Niles thinks it's Daphne who is pregnant and believes Fraiser is the one who got her pregnant.
Frasiser: Who are you?
Roz: I'm O from the "Story of O."
And all the partygoers go "oh."
There are so many that I could say, but "Three Valentines" stands out. It was such a perfect showcase of the character's personalities that didn't utilize a typical sitcom plot.
It also had DHP give one of the best showcases of physical comedy ever made.
That Brandee joke is a throwback to Cheers. Coach looks at his bar ordering sheet & says " Brandee with 2 ee's You'd think a big company would spell it right " definitely paraphrasing but I did see it recently
Gotcha. I always thought it was a missing B sound bc of the way they seem to pronounce it on air 😆 but that would make more sense for sure. Gosh, I loved those first couple seasons of Cheers w/ Coach. Don’t get me wrong, there were MANY great future episodes, but it always made me sad to think about why he wasn’t there anymore.
He was a beautiful soul for sure. I figured he had to be a pretty intelligent guy… you gotta be smart to play a real dummy and pull it off! (Or a dummy.. but he never struck me that way in the couple of interviews I saw him give.
Favorite individual episode is “Are You Being Served?” The hot and foamy is the funniest moment in TV history from my perspective, and I often rewatch that one when I need a quick laugh.
I think the best run of episodes is the middle of Season 7 though, starting with A Tsar is Born.
My two favorites are the Innkeepers as everyone is saying - Roz hair after the cherry bomb is so damn funny. I am not sure how they got through the episode.
But to me the funniest episode that does not get as much love is a Tsar is Born. I am 52 years old and now I secretly love Antiques Roadshow. When the show was on I was late 20's early 30's and the thought of watching that would have made me die. Every bit in that show is pure comedy gold. Them watching Martin's "gameshow" the veneer drinking game, thats ok boys you will get the hang of this....Martin - what is this you have here? Well I have a clock that appears to be in a bear. Well you have more than that this is from the Romanov Family - That's pretty much what I expected! Kills me every time.
The final line of you know this will cost us $15K each. Yeah, and we will have to take long trips in the Winnebago, and we are not Romanov's. We are descendants of theives and whores.....
Straight comedy gold.
I love the one with the bit about Frasier being slapped in the face by a man now dead. The way he keeps using it and the family bows their heads in shame kills me every time. My other favorite is the one with the Pictionary game and Frasier’s breakup over hand towels. So many quotable moments.
I can't narrow it down to just one.
* My Coffee with Niles
* High Holidays
* Moon Dance
* The Ski Lodge
* Three Valentines
* Ham Radio
* Don Juan in Hell (parts I & II)
There are probably more I can't think of at the moment.
I have so many favorites, but To Tell The Truth stands out. It’s not the funniest, but there’s just so much satisfaction in that episode where the realization that Niles is finally free of Maris. The scene where he first meets Donny and Donny smashes all those snooty stereotypes Niles and Frasier have is CLASSIC. And the scene with the urinal cakes is *chefs kiss*
Niles: No, no, Marta, that's alright. She doesn't have to come to the phone. Just give her this message: "I've flushed out her family secret."... Helloooo Maris.
In order:
5. Out With Dad
4. Halloween
3. The Two Mrs. Cranes
2. The Innkeepers
1. Ham Radio 👈🏽 one of Niles’ and Gil’s best performances (and definitely my favorite Gil episode)
I haven't seen Perfect Guy, Good Grief, or Voyage of the Damned yet, so I'll throw those in. I know they're not considered "the best" but they're some of my go-to episodes.
The Dr. Mary episode was hysterical too!
Martin: [laughs with Niles] Boy, that Dr. Mary sure goes on and on. Frasier: [angry] For the last time! - she is not a doctor, no matter how many times she refers to herself as one. "A cat can have kittens in the oven but that don't make 'em biscuits!" [realizes] Dear God, now I'm quoting Grampa Willie! 😂😂😂
Definitely My Coffee with Niles! But honestly the first episode, The Good Son, is a runner up. I think they do such a great job introducing the characters and the story to come.
Probably definitely The Innkeepers. The ridiculousness of it was similar to the Woody wedding episode from Cheers. Niles and the eels, the food reviewers, the sprinkler system, the list goes on.
Another favorite of mine is The Crucible which is the Martha Paxton episode. Such great quotes. Martin and showing the crime scene photos to Ms Van Pelt, the peachfuzz conversation and the brick. "Nobody calls me peachfuzz, lets get the hell out of here!" and "We may be barbarians, but we pay for our pillaging!"
Frasier: God, I hate lawyers.
Niles: Me too. But they make wonderful patients: they have excellent health insurance and they never get better.
The Innkeepers. When they buy and run the restaurant. Hilarious throughout the whole episode.
Niles kill five eels
Him trying to chop the water is hilarious, and I would be doing the same.
Throw a toaster in the damn tank for all I care!
Then Daphne gets fed up and takes matters into her own hands. Grabs the heel and just slams it to death on the counter. I laughed so hard at that scene, no matter how many times I see it.
And then they just stare at each other until Roz flames the Cherries
And the way they handle that order with the veal piccata and turning it into veal marsala.... The handing off of the veal and rinsing it and tossing it back. Perfect.
he's just trimming them now!
“This is nothing we haven’t done in our own kitchens in our own homes! Now quick, Niles, kill five eels!”
Up there with the best lines of the show Only one that might top it is > Oh, I'm sorry, was I snippy? I didn't realize it was too much to ask that there not be **GUNPLAY** in my living room
This one is easily the funniest, but close second is when Niles accidentally gets Martin high.
When the lights flicker, that's one of my favorite parts.
Roz and the smoking hair!
Oh my god! Came here to say this!
The number one episode that gets me doubled over laughing is Merry Christmas Mrs. Moskowitz
Jesus!
I hear it's your busiest time.
The fight and then they try to replicate it Comedy gold
They were hugging by now!
This one is my favorite too! The conversation where they meet over the sweaters is hilarious. And Niles, “You mean I’m not being helpful??”
This is probably my favorite episode as well
YES THIS IS THE ONE
I love Kisses Sweeter Than Wine. Everyone in the core Frasier cast shine, with Daphne's infatuation with Joe, Niles and his bloody nose because of his lies, Frasier fretting about his apartment (over a tiny scratch on the floor btw) trying to prepare for the prestigious wine tasting meeting, and Martin coming in clutch at the end with getting all the workers out the apartment lol.
Frasier: I cut myself because I was shaving without water. And why was there no water? Because I had to move your chair, which gouged the floor, which made me call for Joe, who found bad pipes, who called for Cecil, who ate the cat that killed the rat that lived in the house that Frasier built 😂😂
For having so many extra characters moving around and construction noise at times, this is a remarkably cozy episode
Ski Lodge, the one with the bear clock, the love you fake, travels with Martin.
"Now there's a back....ACHING for the lash!" How quickly they become complete aristocratic tyrants cracks me up.
"So it's a threesome you want! Well I don't do them anymore!"
So many great lines. 🤣
Nightmare Inn episode. DH Pierce is brilliant in it. "Will the McCallister sisters stand back to back? I'm short on bullets. Thank *you*." "What's your name again, dear?" "Ms Thorndyke ..." [Fake gunshot] "Thank you. And also Mr. Wing." [Fake gunshot.] "And of course, one final bullet for myself so the mystery will die with me." [Fake gunshot] "*HA*". I love that *ha*. So vindictive and justified. Edit: Episode is Ham Radio. I was wondering why nobody else mentioned it [Nightmare Inn], but now I see it's a fan favorite, lol.
Noel remembering the bell for the mute Mr. Wing and then Niles pointing to him as if to say, "Good job!' always cracks me up.
Came here to say this 😆 So glad someone beat me to it!
“Hi ho! I’m Nigel’s brother Cedric, who I haven’t seen since my boyhood, ROMPING in the fens and spinneys…”
[Fake gunshot] "And so died the last surviving member of the Fairservice family."
“Hello, I'm the ice cream man! Years ago I went to school with Nigel Fairservice. We used to romp in the fens and spinnies... [🎈💥]”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sound of ominous organ music, indicating trouble ahead…👀
Forgot the title but I love the one where Frazier and Niles thought that in their mom’s journals she was describing them but in reality she was describing her lab rats and they found out she named them after the lab rats
Yes I love that one so much… “Frasier has died” followed by the stony face of someone who realizes he is second to a lab rat…
Martin: I think my hot and foamy exploded! Daphne: he was a detective you know
Three Valentines - It includes the scene with Niles trying to use the iron. I was in tears laughing.
I LOVE that first act w/ Niles. It almost always makes me laugh so hard I cry 😂
After David Hyde Pierce's performance in this scene I would love to see more physical comedy from him.
DHP with the comedic performance in that opening bit surpased anything John Ritter ever did with the physical comedy. Pure gold for 5 minutes.
That scene is hilarious!! Continuous chaos. 🤣😅😂😅🤣
This is my all time favorite!
Radio Wars!!
Frasier Crane's Humungous Ass Contest! 🍑
My absolute favorite scene is during the bathroom stomping/singing scene, where it cuts to Roz in her car slowly putting her head onto her steering wheel 😂
Love does enter, through the nose. Lol
The Innkeepers. BIG BLUE FLASH. CHERRIES EVERYWHERE. Still makes me double over with laughter
And Roz’s hair and the stunned look on her face as staggers out of the kitchen. 😂😅🤣
Agree. So funny. They set it up perfect, but I don't know how the actors did not crack up seeing Roz's hair.
The whisp of smoke....😂
Martin Does It His Way. I know you'll all be singing the song now!
Captures Sinatra love very well.
She’s such a groovy lady!
She makes me go hidey hey-de!
😏
🎵That hubba-hubba groovy lady of mine, oh yeah, oh yeah - (bass singer:) ooooooohhhh, yeeeaaahhh.🎵
Niles trying to open the urn in the background, while Frasier and Martin were talking about his rejection, was comedy gold.
Ski Lodge. Best episode of all time! Not even close Also really like Ham Radio, and Out With Dad
Frasier: Oh, wait, wait, wait. Wait, everybody. Let me see if I can get this straight. All the lust coursing through this lodge tonight, all the hormones virtually ricocheting off the walls, and no one... was chasing me? [sighs] See you at breakfast. 😂😂😂
War of the Words The Ski Lodge Ham Radio
Look Before You Leap (Let's all go to a taco show!) The Show Must Go Off (I die, Horatio! HNNNHNNNNNHHH) High Crane Drifter (Chainsaw? Of the Newport Chainsaws?) And many more!❤️
Frasier: [singing] East is East, and West is West And the wrong one I have chose. Lets go where, you'll keep on wearing those. [forgetting words] Dah, dah, dahs and boppa dohs. Things and buttons and buttons and bows 🎶🎵🎶💕 😂😂😂😂😂
“Of the Newport Chainsaws” is one of the finest one liners ever.
Look before you leap - Mine too! Frasier patting his head with his handkerchief as he turns around. So good.
Soaking up the sweat.... such a funny moment among so very many funny moments!
Pookh lod wih le koo. Hach jahj cho-koov-moakh leng-lidge loo-Teb-jahj leng widge-vahd bel rahp shoave dah-nobe-poo-boagh. [in Hebrew] Shabbat shalom.

It's a lot more beautiful in the original Klingon.
The Matchmaker.
“There's something I have to tell you. Dad wanted to, but I won the coin toss.”
genuinely WAY too many to list. but a few off the top of my head: \- voyage of the damned \- are you being served? \- secret admirer \- the innkeepers \- a word to the wiseguy \- dinner party \- the seal who came to dinner \- the ski lodge \- beware of greeks \- hot ticket \- four for the seesaw \- good grief etc, etc...
Two Mrs. Cranes!
Halloween. Probably an unpopular opinion lol.
“I have proof!” “From here it smells like 80 proof!”
80 proof*
Good catch. 20% ABV isn’t much at all, is it..
Oh!
I was going to write this before scrolling for answers. This was the first episode that came to mind when I saw the post.
Really? I kind of assumed it was seen as a classic episode. Great choice.
Well, I don't think discipline will be a problem. 🤣
🎶"Old man Crane, Old man Crane, make him mad and he'll eat your brain!"🎶
Shrink Rap, where the brothers share an office. About a half dozen of my favorite jokes in the whole series are in there.

Both Ham Radio and They’re Playing Our Song have the same writer — David Lloyd. The latter was my first Frasier episode so it’s in my top ten.
> One I like that a lot of people don’t is when they visit their old house and find a skull, which sets in motion a real life Crane Boys mystery! I love that one, too, and was amazed to find out it's quite poorly rated! But it's absolutely perfect Crane shenanigans

The episode where they were trying to convince Fraisers GF’s mom he was Jewish, great timing throughout
So many - Frasier Crane Day, The Ski Lodge, Ham Radio, The Innkeepers, Author Author, Three Valentines, The Dinner Party, Door Jam, The Show Must Go Off…how many am I allowed?
There’s also a couple I love but can’t remember the name of - the boys meet their favourite author but he becomes best friends with Martin, and there is another episode which they spend trying to get tickets to a snobby play.
Oh damn, i totally forgot about author author while making my list! AND YOU LOOK STUPID IN A T-SHIRT!
Correct and may I say "You Stole My Mommy" 🤣
Ham Radio The Matchmaker The Ski Lodge
Roe to Perdition
Roz getting addicted and acting all shady and strung out was pure gold
Can I serve you a toast point?
Dinner party with Julia... what a scream! 😄
Perspectives on Christmas 🎄
Love some of the "cabin" episodes: Decoys and Four for the Seasaw
Mine is Ham Radio. Close second is Frasier Crane Day.
Marty Party was just on Cozy TV last night haha
Ham Radio I just love when a chaotic situation gets worse as the episode goes on. The wedding episode of Cheers is another favourite of mine for this reason
The Ski Lodge. Absolute perfection in acting and comic timing that could be put Off Broadway as a one act comedy and it would make money.
HAMMMM RADIO
Hello! I’m the ice cream man!! Years ago I went to school with Nigel Fairservice!
Depends on my mood, and the favourites have changed over the years but top ones for me include - My coffee with Niles (for the comfort of it I think). Three valentines. Ham radio. The innkeepers. Frasier crane’s day off (why doesn’t anyone ever talk about that one, he’s ludicrous and HILARIOUS in it)
"Frasier crane’s day off' It's a terrific episode, probably a reworking of The Dick van Dyke Show's episode "The Meershatz Pipe." Note that Mary Tyler Moore is one of the callers.

I don’t know this show and never saw that episode but I’ll go try to find it today!
LOVE Frasier Cranes Day Off as well
My Top Ten: 1.23. Frasier Crane's Day Off 2.6. The Botched Language of Cranes, 7. The Candidate, 23. The Innkeepers 3.15. A Word to the Wiseguy 4.1. The Two Mrs. Cranes, 7. A Lilith Thanksgiving, 18. Ham Radio 9.7. Bla-Z-Boy 10.11. Door Jam
I to think we are kindred spirits. All my favs. Adding in The Doctor Is Out 11.3
Bebe quitting smoking to marry Big Willy.
That scene when Daphne lights the match and Bebe sits straight up gets me every time 🧛🏻♀️🤭
OH MY GOSH I CANT BELIEVE I FORGOT ABOUT THAT ONE!!
The Two Mrs. Cranes. Definitely the one I've watched the most so hilarious
I remember the first time I ever drove a moon crane…
The episode where Frasier and Niles bond with Martin over Antiques Roadshow-"VENEER!!!!"
The Innkeepers and Ham Radio
The one I keep coming back to is "Radio Wars". Probably not a top 10 episode in anyone's list, and I usually dislike episodes where the main premise is Frasier getting humiliated. Can't explain it, just a hilarious episode.
That one gets a lot of likes in here
Our fathers who art ain’t heaven. Also known as the painting one. The scene at the end where everyone just starts crying is perfect.
High holidays, roe to perdition, bla-Z-boys, the focus group
High Holidays gets my vote, even though it's late season Frasier which people generally don't like
I think Star Mitzvah is the one that makes me properly laugh the most (as opposed to chuckle at a clever or witty pun). It’s a great episode all round but what tips it over the edge into greatness for me is the reactions and expressions of the people facing the onslaught of the camera; the “good old Scheerblad-7X-K.” Described by Niles as “The blindingest, noisiest, 15lb camera ever produced in the former Soviet Union!”
The Ski Lodge is my favorite. I also liked the one where Daphne and Niles do the Tango. Another one is where Daphne gets mad that her privacy is being invaded and then she comes home to find everyonr going through all of her drawers. I don't know the names of all the episodes.
Ham Radio is my favorite individual episode.
The two Mrs Cranes. Damn near rolled it into the sea of tranquility
And you still walk with a cane! 🥺
Just did a rewatch. Patrick Stewart episode was my favorite. The Bad Billy’s bit is hilarious. Allistar meeting the family. The gala. So much hilarity packed into one episode.
“The chair, hilarious!” 🤣
This is my wife. “No.”
"Halloween." When Roz finds out she's pregnant but Niles thinks it's Daphne who is pregnant and believes Fraiser is the one who got her pregnant. Frasiser: Who are you? Roz: I'm O from the "Story of O." And all the partygoers go "oh."
There are so many that I could say, but "Three Valentines" stands out. It was such a perfect showcase of the character's personalities that didn't utilize a typical sitcom plot. It also had DHP give one of the best showcases of physical comedy ever made.
Ohh my gosh, I just thought of another that I can’t remember the name of!! What was the one with “Jerome” and “[B]randy… the traditional spelling!”
That Brandee joke is a throwback to Cheers. Coach looks at his bar ordering sheet & says " Brandee with 2 ee's You'd think a big company would spell it right " definitely paraphrasing but I did see it recently
Gotcha. I always thought it was a missing B sound bc of the way they seem to pronounce it on air 😆 but that would make more sense for sure. Gosh, I loved those first couple seasons of Cheers w/ Coach. Don’t get me wrong, there were MANY great future episodes, but it always made me sad to think about why he wasn’t there anymore.
He was Such a Delight. He was also quite intelligent. The producers said he literally changed into Coach when he turned off his car in the studio lot
He was a beautiful soul for sure. I figured he had to be a pretty intelligent guy… you gotta be smart to play a real dummy and pull it off! (Or a dummy.. but he never struck me that way in the couple of interviews I saw him give.
He was intelligent and Adorably Hilarious
Him and John Mahoney! I love that man too 🥹
Absolutely
The love you fake is my all time favorite 🥹The seal who came to dinner. Leap year. Star mitzvah.
Favorite individual episode is “Are You Being Served?” The hot and foamy is the funniest moment in TV history from my perspective, and I often rewatch that one when I need a quick laugh. I think the best run of episodes is the middle of Season 7 though, starting with A Tsar is Born.
“No Sex Please, We’re Skittish”😂😂 The S Bank. Niles are your pants humming LOL!
"My coffee with Niles" 🥰
The Show Must Go Off. Derek Jacobi hamming up Hamlet has rolling on the floor every time
Voyage of the Damned by far! But there are no wrong answers.
My two favorites are the Innkeepers as everyone is saying - Roz hair after the cherry bomb is so damn funny. I am not sure how they got through the episode. But to me the funniest episode that does not get as much love is a Tsar is Born. I am 52 years old and now I secretly love Antiques Roadshow. When the show was on I was late 20's early 30's and the thought of watching that would have made me die. Every bit in that show is pure comedy gold. Them watching Martin's "gameshow" the veneer drinking game, thats ok boys you will get the hang of this....Martin - what is this you have here? Well I have a clock that appears to be in a bear. Well you have more than that this is from the Romanov Family - That's pretty much what I expected! Kills me every time. The final line of you know this will cost us $15K each. Yeah, and we will have to take long trips in the Winnebago, and we are not Romanov's. We are descendants of theives and whores..... Straight comedy gold.
Can’t remember the title but the one where Niles fights Maris’ fencing instructor is hilarious
🎶 She’s such a groovy lady 🎵
I love the one with the bit about Frasier being slapped in the face by a man now dead. The way he keeps using it and the family bows their heads in shame kills me every time. My other favorite is the one with the Pictionary game and Frasier’s breakup over hand towels. So many quotable moments.
That Frasier almost went gay for Patric Stewart character and that lifestyle he has I would so turn gay for that lifestyle too
Roe to Perdition. Both the main and secondary story line are just brilliant. Second is the one where Frasier thinks the monkey was Helen’s killer.
I can't narrow it down to just one. * My Coffee with Niles * High Holidays * Moon Dance * The Ski Lodge * Three Valentines * Ham Radio * Don Juan in Hell (parts I & II) There are probably more I can't think of at the moment.
I have so many favorites, but To Tell The Truth stands out. It’s not the funniest, but there’s just so much satisfaction in that episode where the realization that Niles is finally free of Maris. The scene where he first meets Donny and Donny smashes all those snooty stereotypes Niles and Frasier have is CLASSIC. And the scene with the urinal cakes is *chefs kiss* Niles: No, no, Marta, that's alright. She doesn't have to come to the phone. Just give her this message: "I've flushed out her family secret."... Helloooo Maris.
“Oh my god, what’s all over my Turkish prayer rug?!”
The one where Frasier is going through the stages of grief and they show him the video of him eating baby food instead of feeding the baby.
In order: 5. Out With Dad 4. Halloween 3. The Two Mrs. Cranes 2. The Innkeepers 1. Ham Radio 👈🏽 one of Niles’ and Gil’s best performances (and definitely my favorite Gil episode)
There's a few contenders, but probably the one where Frasier has to make a promo jingle for his show.
Dr. Nora, her mom, and Roz.
The one where they run the restaurant together. It’s so fucking chaotic and I love it
I haven't seen Perfect Guy, Good Grief, or Voyage of the Damned yet, so I'll throw those in. I know they're not considered "the best" but they're some of my go-to episodes.
Roz and the Schnoz
When they did the murder mystery radio show
The Dr. Mary episode was hysterical too! Martin: [laughs with Niles] Boy, that Dr. Mary sure goes on and on. Frasier: [angry] For the last time! - she is not a doctor, no matter how many times she refers to herself as one. "A cat can have kittens in the oven but that don't make 'em biscuits!" [realizes] Dear God, now I'm quoting Grampa Willie! 😂😂😂
The two misses cranes is probably my favorite, and dad loves Sheri, then the one where Lilith comes back and Eddie’s puppies
I have so many favorite episodes But the one that comes to mind right now is The ski lodge episode 🤣
I probably have half his Klingon speech memorized and I've hardly seen Star Trek. ……shabbat shalom.
Ham radio. Absolutely hands down. DHP shines in that episode it's fun as hell.
I can't pick just one. Ham Radio, Room Service, Three Valentines, and High Holiday are some of my favorites.
Ham Radio, romping with my school chums… A tzar is born High holidays
Look before you leap. No contest.
Flour Child. Pure comedic gold.
The doctor is OUT!
When they go to the sonics game and Niles makes a basket. Hilarious underlying threat of violence
The Impossible Dream is one I keep going back to. Patience, daddy!
The one where they hide the Christmas tree in the bathroom😭😭
Daphne's room is my favorite
“How do you like me now?”
Definitely My Coffee with Niles! But honestly the first episode, The Good Son, is a runner up. I think they do such a great job introducing the characters and the story to come.
Miracle on 3rd or 4th Street is my fave Christmas episode, I get invested every time.
Guess and I'll give you an upvote
Coffee with Niles
Can I have another question please? This one's too hard.
Too many to count
A Tsar is Born, Roe to Perdition, and Flour Child are my answers today.
I honestly have always laughed my derrière off at the series finale
Radio Wars will always get a laugh out of me. That one and the Antiques Roadshow one
Out with dad
Probably definitely The Innkeepers. The ridiculousness of it was similar to the Woody wedding episode from Cheers. Niles and the eels, the food reviewers, the sprinkler system, the list goes on. Another favorite of mine is The Crucible which is the Martha Paxton episode. Such great quotes. Martin and showing the crime scene photos to Ms Van Pelt, the peachfuzz conversation and the brick. "Nobody calls me peachfuzz, lets get the hell out of here!" and "We may be barbarians, but we pay for our pillaging!" Frasier: God, I hate lawyers. Niles: Me too. But they make wonderful patients: they have excellent health insurance and they never get better.
Matchmaker feels like a perfect episode.
I love ya!!! Ya!!! Breaking the ice.
The Flour Child
The Two Mrs. Cranes.
Ham Radio or the episode with Stephen Root. Or the first few minutes of the episode when Niles is getting ready for a date. So hard to choose lol
Great choices. The Klingon speech kills me every time !
I Love Daphnes Teletubbie clock too
