Frasier - The 4th and Fantastic Season, 9 Aug 2002

By	P. J. May "peterjmay" (London) - See all my reviews

This forthcoming Boxset contains some of the very best Frasier episodes ever made including Kelsey Grammer's personal favourite "Our Father Whose Art Ain't Heaven".
Highlights from this boxset are without a doubt "Two Mrs Cranes and Mixed Doubles".
If you are a fan of Frasier and the gang's famously hilarious misunderstandings, this is the boxset to get!!!!

The first 12 episodes from the season are as follows:

Episode 4.01 - The Two Mrs Cranes

Daphne tries to let ex-fiancee Clive down again easily by pretending to be married to Niles, with Frasier now separated from Maris, while Martin is an astronaut. Needless to say, chaos reigns.....

Episode 4.02 - Love Bites Dog

Roz sets up her friend Sharon with Frasier, but she takes a shine to Bulldog instead, but when she dumps him, he becomes so distraught that Frasier has to take over his show. Meanwhile, Daphne and Martin search for new shoes and Niles places an ad to try and attract more patients.

Impossible Dream

Frasier is haunted by a recurring erotic dream involving him, a seedy motel and KACL's restaurant critic Gil Chesterton. What does it all mean....?

A Crane's Critique

While Frasier and Niles try to track down reclusive author T.H. Houghton after spotting him in the street, it is Martin who actually meets him and makes friends with him. Of course, the Crane boys are ecstatic at this and even more so when Mr Houghton accidentally leaves his new manuscript at Frasier's apartment.....

Head Game

Niles fills in for Frasier at KACL and gets roped into helping floundering basketball star Reggie McLemore by Bulldog. After a quick session, Reggie's game improves but Reggie believes it was because he touched Niles' head leaving Niles no alternative but to try and talk to him again.

Mixed Doubles

After Joe dumps Daphne, Niles feels the time is right for him to tell her his feelings for her, but Frasier convinces him to wait at least a day for her to get over Joe. This gives Roz ample time to take Daphne to a singles bar and introduce her to Rodney - who appears to be Niles' doppelganger in almost every way.....

A Lilith Thanksgiving

The Crane clan travel to Boston so that Frasier can join Lilith in trying to get Frederick into an exclusive school, leaving Martin and Niles to look after Frederick. Not a good idea.....

Our Father Whose Art Ain't Heaven

Martin buys Frasier a painting he said he liked at Le Cigare Volone, trying to do something nice for his son. There's only one problem - Frasier was lying in order to get a table, but can't seem to find a way to tell his father the truth...

Dad Loves Sherry, The Boys Just Whine

After Maureen breaks up with Martin, he asks out someone he's had his eye on - Sherry Dempsey. Much to Frasier and Niles' horror, she's a loud, brassy banjo-playing waitress. Martin really likes her, but Frasier and Niles cover up their true feelings - that is, until Sherry takes Daphne's ticket to Niles' awards banquet, forcing them to say something to their father.

Liar! Liar!

Martin is appalled after Frasier admits he set off the school fire alarm and blamed it on the school bully, who got thrown out of school. Out of guilt, Frasier tries to track him down and find out if his actions affected his life in any way.

Three Days Of The Condo

The people running Frasier's building are making his life hell, so decides to take action. However, everything he does seems to make matters worse....

Death And The Dog

Martin calls in a dog psychiatrist to help a depressed Eddie, much to Frasier and Niles' amusement. However, his diagnosis that Eddie is picking up negative vibes from everyone around him causes the Crane clan to assess their own lives.

Why not add this set to the rest of your Frasier collection now, You won't be dissapointed!!!!!

Its Frasier So It Must Be Good, 25 Mar 2004

By	E. J. Fletcher "Erinbron" (London UK) - See all my reviews

The only other thing I can think of about series 4 is that unlike series 1 and 2, with 3 and 4 (5 onwards I dont know) the box sets are in 6 tapes of 4 episodes, rather than 4 tapes of 6 episodes. This of course costs more, and takes up more room.

Having said that, this if Frasier, so I dont complain too much. Who does, when they're happy?!
