So much love!!!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Perkins,
thank you for saying that. I thought I was losing my mind for the first 10 minutes.

Also, while I bow to years of stratospheric ratings and water cooler talk for Seinfeld at #1 despite not liking it much, no way in hell do Community, Parks and Recreation, and 30 Rock belong higher on the list than Frasier.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
That Jeff/Annie parody shipper montage is actually riffing off a specific fan video. The same song, same exact LOLtastic editing style, everything: [link]
This show is so ridiculous and brilliant, and so freakin' meta, it breaks my brain.
This episode actually made me a bit sad that I never gave The Cape a chance. Oh, Abed.

Always Anti-fascist!
I'm with you, Matt. It's not "Frasier's" fault that list guy wasn't smart enough to get it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That's even better! I will have to go back and rewatch that part now that I have seen the vid.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
My main takeaway from that Must See TV list is that the author was 13 in 2002, and so 22 now. Not that that invalidates his opinion, but youth has a limited perspective.

Apparently Dan Harmon tweeted the vidder to let her know what to expect. The complete disappearance of the fourth wall made me laugh and laugh and also facepalm a little. Can you imagine being that vidder? Talk about equal-parts awesomeness and mortification.
As an avid vid-watcher, a part of me reveled in the meta of it all, while another part was all, "OH GOD, there are so much better vids out there; WE ARE NOT ALL THIS EMBARRASSING." (I'm very fond of this Annie-centric vid by sisabet: [link] )

Ann, that's a ferret.
Frasier was great farce. In one Valentine's Day episode, Niles is cooking dinner for a date with a woman with very exacting standards. After everyone else has left the apartment, he notices a tiny flaw in his outfit. From there, things spin further and further (and more and more hilariously) out of control.
10 minutes of classic television. With one character and not one word of dialogue.
