Is a ‘Frasier’ Tattoo A-Callin’ You?

Frasier followed the eponymous character, psychiatrist Frasier Crane (played by Kelsey Grammer – the voice of Sideshow Bob in The Simpsons) as he moved from Boston back home to Seattle and began hosting a radio advice show.

One of several Cheers spin-off shows, in its initial run, Frasier aired for a total of 11 seasons (1993-2004) and 264 episodes. After almost two decades since its finale, Frasier is set to return to our screens in 2023.

Frasier had a small cast of main characters including Frasier’s brother Niles Crane (also a psychiatrist); their father Martin Crane (a retired detective with a gunshot injury); Daphne Moon (Martin’s physiotherapist and the Crane’s housekeeper); and Roz Doyle (Frasier’s radio show producer). We also can’t forget the non-human character of Eddie the Jack Russell Terrier.

During its 11 years on television, Frasier was a winner of an astounding 37 Primetime Emmy Awards. Kelsey Grammer holds a record for being the only actor to be nominated for an Emmy for playing the same character on three different shows (Cheers, Frasier and Wings).

There a quite a few Frasier fan podcasts available to listen and download/stream, however tattoos are not as common online despite the millions of fans throughout the world. The three tattoos I have to show you are fantastic and I especially love how unique they are.

Are you excited for the Frasier revival? Will you be celebrating the show’s return with a tattoo?
