S5:8 EP76: The Comic Genius of Frasier

Frasier was a hit sitcom that ran for 11 seasons from the early 1990s through the early 2000s. It was also the backdrop to much of Katie and her sister Chrissy's childhood. Today on the show Katie is joined by Chrissy to chat about what makes Frasier such a great show - how it's an excellent introduction to theatre, encourages a love of learning, celebrates families connecting despite big differences, and also what makes it different from other sitcoms of the era (especially Seinfeld and Friends). Coffee, theatre, radio, a cloudy, rainy city -- what could be better! A fun, light-hearted episode about a truly great show! Hope you enjoy!  --- Subscribe to Born of Wonder on Substack https://bornofwonder.substack.com     Support Born of Wonder on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/bornofwonder    www.bornofwonder.com    ----   Episodes referenced:   The Ski Lodge Don Juan in Hell The Seal Who Came to Dinner  Voyage of the Damned Halloween Daphne Does Dinner Freudian Sleep   ---   Book Recommendation -  "The ABC Murders" - Agatha Christie
