Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Frasier is, quite simply, one of the best programmes on the box and anyone who has ever tuned in to spy on the deceptively intricate machinations of the Seattle psychiatrist and his band of merry misfits will undoubtedly want to own this book. With an introduction by Christopher Lloyd, the executive producer, The Best of Frasier is a compilation of 15 complete scripts from the first five series of the Emmy Award-winning show. From the pilot episode, "The Good Son", where the now familiar cast cut their teeth and won over a network, to the out and out farce of "The Matchmaker" and "The Ski Lodge" and the delightful parody "Last Tango in Seattle", each script is a small work of art that has deservedly won a place in the annals of sit-com history.

The Best of Frasier is a joy to read, with the pure genius of the writers even managing to combat the nagging difficulties that stage direction and technical jargon as seen on a page can often cause a reader. And as the written words transform themselves into the distant baritone boom of Frasier, the steely affectations of Niles, the rasping common sense of Martin, the strange English lilt of Daphne and the honeyed tones of Roz without the benefit of a television and a remote control, there is no mistaking that Frasier is still, and probably will always remain, something very special indeed. -- Susan Harrison



Product Description

Frasier is a widely acclaimed sitcom, with finely crafted scripts. This book contains the scripts from the first two series, and they are almost as funny to read as to see on screen.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you like the Frasier shows you will love this book, 12 Mar 2001
By A Customer
Once you start reading this book it really is hard to put it down. As you read you recall each script and it gives more depth to the show. It is best to have watched the TV show before reading this book

4.0 out of 5 stars A read to lighten anyone's mood., 19 Jan 2002
By A Customer
reading the scripts of Frasier provides a chance to appreciate the more subtle jokes that may be missed through watching the show on Channel 4. It can never provide the same level of visual entertainment as the show, but the scripts recall some of the best moments in the series, and includes 'The Good Son' which was the pilot script for Frasier. They allow the reader to enjoy the witty banter at a more leisurely pace, and the comedy does not loose its charm as print. In addition to this, some classic Frasier photographs are included, with some very funny ones of Eddie, 'the star of the show.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 14 Jul 2001
By A Customer
The quality of the writing is just brilliant - these scripts enhance the series but it is not essential to have already seen the episodes. Volume 2 please.
