''[[Frasier]]'' is an [[Television in the United States|American]] [[Situation comedy|sitcom]] created by [[David Angell]], [[Peter Casey (screenwriter)|Peter Casey]] and [[David Lee (screenwriter)|David Lee]] and is a spinoff from the series ''[[Cheers]]'', which was created by [[Glen and Les Charles|Glen Charles]], [[Glen and Les Charles|Les Charles]] and [[James Burrows]].

The series sees newly divorced psychiatrist [[Frasier Crane]] ([[Kelsey Grammer]]) leave behind his old life in Boston and relocate to his hometown of Seattle, Washington. He begins a new career as the host of his own radio call-in show, where he is assisted by his sassy, somewhat promiscuous producer, [[Roz Doyle]] ([[Peri Gilpin]]). Frasier quickly learns from his [[Anal retentiveness|anal retentive]] younger brother [[Niles Crane|Niles]] ([[David Hyde Pierce]]) that their disabled father [[Martin Crane|Martin]] ([[John Mahoney]]) is no longer able to live alone, and Frasier reluctantly agrees to take him in, along with Martin's favorite recliner and his dog, [[Minor characters on Frasier#Dr. Frasier Crane Show callers|Eddie]] ([[Moose (dog)|Moose]]). In order to help Martin with his physical therapy, he and Frasier ultimately hire a live-in housekeeper and therapist, [[Daphne Moon]] ([[Jane Leeves]]), a quirky British woman who believes she is psychic. The five quickly form a strange family unit, and Frasier comes to realize that even though his new life may not be what he planned, that does not mean that it is bad.

''Frasier'' was broadcast on [[NBC]] for eleven seasons, from September 16, 1993, to May 13, 2004.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch/frasier/|title=Shows A-Z – frasier on nbc|work=The Futon Critic|accessdate=May 6, 2010}}</ref> It has been in syndication since 1997. Although the actual episode titles were rarely formally displayed on-screen, each episode had two or three 'title cards', flashed up on a black backdrop during an episode (usually at the start of one of the three parts of the original US broadcast). These pertained to the particular sequences of the episodes themselves, often in ways which were not immediately obvious. Many referred to classical literature and cultural subjects, while a small percentage were also the overall titles of the episodes. 264 episodes of ''Frasier'' were broadcast, with each season containing 24 episodes.

Also, almost every episode had certain scenes starting ''[[in medias res]]'', that is, in the middle of a scene, and often ending in the middle of a scene, giving the series its unique structure.

[[Paramount Home Entertainment]]/[[CBS Home Entertainment|CBS DVD]] has released all 11 seasons on [[DVD region code#Region codes and countries|Region 1]], [[DVD region code#Region codes and countries|2]] and [[DVD region code#Region codes and countries|4]] DVD. A [[Blu-ray]] box set was released on November 8, 2022, by Paramount Pictures. The ''Frasier: The Complete Series'' box set, contains 33 Blu-ray Discs with some extras and behind the scenes.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Frasier-The-Complete-Series-Blu-ray/131862/ | title=Frasier: The Complete Series Blu-ray }}</ref> In addition, the series was made available for streaming through services such as [[Hulu]], [[Netflix]] (ended in 2020<ref>{{cite web | url=https://decider.com/2019/12/03/frasier-is-leaving-netflix/ | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230410051212/https://decider.com/2019/12/03/frasier-is-leaving-netflix/amp/ | archive-date=April 10, 2023 | title='Frasier' is Leaving Netflix | date=December 3, 2019 }}</ref>), [[Amazon Prime Video]], [[Showtime (TV network)|Showtime]], [[SkyShowtime]] and [[Paramount+]].
