Title: Fraiser ended tonight - I hear the sounds of crickets....
Post by: videoholic on May 13, 2004, 07:02:04 PM
Funny how the show\'s been on longer than Friends, but there was absolutley no hype.  Nice.

God I hated Frasier.  Did any of you watch it?  I never thought it was even remotely funny.

I thought it was really funny but it got old after half way through. Friends on the other hand. I loved it for all 10 years. I\'m so sad it\'s gone! lol

but yea I thought it was weird how there wasn\'t as much hype over Frasier, I mean it was on longer, it\'s "The Most Honored TV Show", and it won awards.

BTW I did watch the finale and it sucked. I mean they ended too soon. Friends was perfect.

20?  It was on 11.

Fraiser\'s Character is probably 20 though since he was on Cheers.

i always thought the characters were boring and the show sucked. But the rest of my family loves it, which sucks because they turn it on when were eating.

Now becker..that shows funny as hell.

Might not have been that great but was still better than friends.

The trifecta of season finales that no one cares about will be complete this summer when Drew Carey ends its run.

That announcement was a COMPLETE shocker for me because I thought Drew Carey was cancelled like two years ago.

Becker wasn\'t renewed for next year.

Becker is pretty funny but after reggy left it just seemed to get boring. BTW Friends owns! Don\'t dis Friends! :) That thing with rachel and joey did piss me off though. Oh right this thread is about Fraiser....

I\'m with TheOmen, Fraiser rocked because the humor was above most people\'s head.. As for the "no hype", uh, are you living in a cave? There was tons of hype for it.

Drew Carey? I thought it was already dead?

Yes there was some hype but not nearly as much as Friends. I mean every local news station had something about it. I mean there where huge parties (same with frasier but not as much).

That\'s because, for the most part, American\'s have no culture and like their humor dumbed down.

Frasier never did anything for me.

But it was a good last episode.  Niles finally got married and Frasier went off to Hollywood to start a spin-off sitcom that will most likely bomb after achieving high ratings for the first episode.

I\'ll admit, I missed the sarcasm in your post; but I WAS being sarcastic.

It rocked because the humor was over peoples heads? Dont get me wrong, i watched the show every now and then and i understood everything but that fact alone (that certain people dont get it) doesnt make it "rock." Thats... whats the word? IDK. Stupid? Perhaps almost elitist. w.e

He\'s saying it wasn\'t popular because some people just didn\'t get it, not cause it sucked.  I don\'t think he\'s saying he liked it more cause others didn\'t.

Is it true that Smallville has been canned? It was taken off Australian networks at the beginning of this year and I don\'t know why.

I thought it was pretty cool.

Does anyone know if its been the same dog in Fraiser for the whole 11 seasons?

Apparently whats-his-name-grammer-boy says Fraiser Cranes character is not officially dead and he\'s open to a new show. Let it die.

Post by: ZipCrash on May 15, 2004, 05:32:19 AM
Smallville hasn\'t been canned, atleast not in the US. That show owns. And no, I watched a dateline special on frasier, they had 2 dogs. The second dog was the firsts dog\'s son. :)

Niles and Fraiser was great together, but one without the other would not work, in my opinion.

And Eik - Niles didn\'t get married, Martin did. Nile\'s and Daf had their baby, on the day of the wedding...and Eddie\'s birthday.

One of the stupidest shows in all of television history, nice painting though. And Friends blew ass too.

Checkout Krypton\'s Site (http://www.kryptonsite.com) for the latest on Smallville.

A couple of big changes are happening

1) Pete Ross\'s character is probably gone next season (almost certainly).

2) They may loose another major character or two (Lionel Luthor needs to go for Lex to really come into power, Lana may leave).

The show will be back next year, possibly in it\'s old timeslot, it took a big ratings hit when they moved it to 8:00 and it had to compete with reality shows (what the hell is wrong with the US?!!?).

Frasier is one of the best comedy shows ever. Seinfeld was just... bleh. Never really got my attention (I guess because I hated most of the cast and Seinfeld in particular).
