‘Frasier’ Sequel Starring Kelsey Grammer Picked Up To Series At Paramount+ [deadline.com]
The long-in-the-works Frasier followup is finally a reality. Paramount+ has given a series greenlight to the multi-camera comedy, executive produced by Kelsey Grammer who is reprising his signature character, psychiatrist-turned-radio host Frasier Crane.
