Frasier Revival Axed by Paramount+ Post 2 Seasons

by

It seems like the run of Frasier Crane might be over, at least for now, as Paramount+ has decided to end the revival series following only two seasons. Previously, Kelsey Grammer had expressed a desire for the show to continue for as long as it did during its original run, but fans who were hoping for more of this beloved Cheers spinoff will likely be extremely disappointed now that Season 2 has ended.

The comeback of the show premiered on Paramount+ in October 2023, featuring Kelsey Grammer reprising his role as Crane following almost two decades. In this new season, Crane moved back to Boston for a fresh storyline. Although some familiar characters appeared and the series retained its characteristic humor, viewers anticipated more returning characters, which somewhat dampened the excitement of the show’s return. However, Frasier managed to secure a Season 2 renewal despite not receiving the explosive reception Paramount had expected.

In summary, the series received generally positive ratings from viewers throughout both seasons, accumulating an overall score of 77%. The show’s nostalgic appeal was a significant factor in its success. Although Season 1 earned a “fresh” Tomatometer rating of 67% from critics, Season 2 saw a dip to a more neutral 50%. Lately, Paramount has been associated more with Taylor Sheridan’s works, which might suggest that Fraiser is no longer the focus.
