Yes, Frasier was revived with a ten-episode season that premiered on October 12th 2023.

After a hiatus of over two decades, Frasier returned to television in October 2023. The original series spanning 11 seasons and comprising a total of 264 episodes, now broadens its legacy with supplementary content. In this new journey set in Boston, Kelsey Grammer reprises his role as Dr. Frasier Crane and reconnects with his estranged son Freddy. The show, despite its three-decade-old charm that still resonates with audiences - a factor demonstrated by the momentum it continues to garner - generates divided opinions among fans and critics.

Is Frasier coming back?

Yes, Frasier has indeed made a resurgence with a revival on Paramount+. The rejuvenated series, currently available for streaming, reunites Kelsey Grammer with his iconic role as Frasier Crane, set in a fresh backdrop with a new ensemble. Fast-forwarding two decades from the original narrative, the mellower Frasier finds himself back in Boston, reconnecting with his son Freddy, portrayed by Jack Cutmore-Scott, and Freddy's roommate Eve, depicted by Jess Salgueiro.

While the return of some original cast members, including John Mahoney and David Hyde Pierce, remains uncertain, Bebe Neuwirth and Peri Gilpin are slated to revisit their roles as Lilith and Roz, respectively. A heartfelt tribute to Mahoney takes the form of naming Frasier's newfound favorite bar after the late actor. Helmed by showrunners Chris Harris and Joe Cristalli, the revival endeavors to preserve the intelligence and heart of the original while unfolding a new chapter in Frasier's ongoing narrative.

When does the Frasier revival take place?

The Frasier revival unfolds two decades post the original series, setting the stage in 2023. Frasier Crane makes a poignant return to his roots in Boston following his father's passing and the conclusion of a relationship. With aspirations to mend ties with his son, Frasier embraces a teaching role at Harvard University. The narrative tracks Crane in this new life chapter, navigating fresh obstacles, forming novel connections, and pursuing longstanding dreams.

The show introduces Freddy, Crane's adult son - a Harvard dropout turned firefighter. Born amidst the events of "Cheers", he only makes sporadic appearances as a child in "Frasier"; his character there portrayed by Trevor Einhorn. This final version of Freddy, is now an altruistic individual with an enormous heart who yearns for his father's comprehension about why not following him into their familial profession was what truly appealed to him.
