    No Niles so far, so theres no snide sniping at each other. Also no John Mahoney (Frasiers Dad) who did a decent amount of the heavy lifting when it came to making the series feel grounded.

    The first few episodes of frasier felt pretty stilted and stiff too. I’m giving it a chance. I have a 3yo in the house who is just hoovering up language so broadly inoffensive is a good thing at the moment.

      David Hyde Pearce has confirmed that he won’t be coming back for the revival as he feels he did everything he could/wanted to with the Niles character in the first run of the show.

          Never say never, they brought Tupac back for Coachella that one time!

        Which is a shame because Niles and Frasiers banter was one of the things that made the show special, it was so good that they found a way to put it in The Simpsons.
