Happy Anzac day for folks in Oz and New Zealand.
That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Which Frasier was that?
Frasier could be great farce. There was also a Valentine's Day ep in which David Hyde Pierce -- singlehandedly -- had me ROTFL in the last of the great silent one-reelers.
Though that's hardly in the "saying witty things to one another" category.

Frasier was funnier when Niles and Frasier were characters on The Simpsons.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I thought Frasier was really funny, but avoid tired clichés? Perhaps in favour of creating its own.

They can be very funny, imo. That Simpsons is one of my faves. My stepfather was such a Niles, too.ETA: ita does have a point...sometimes it is like Three's Company read a lot of books, though.

Fred Pete -- that scene was one of the funniest on tv.

Exactly, sumi. The way it built and built and built....

David Hyde Pierce is freaking genius.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
David Hyde Pierce is freaking genius.
He really has an impeccable sense of timing, and in terms of physical comedy, I can't think of many who are better.
Though one of my favorite episodes, which I caught completely by accident, since I had stopped watching it years before, was the bar mitzvah episode.
