Audio problem: Frasier is standing in his living room talking to Niles. We hear a knocking or tapping.

The Bad Son - S8-E3

The Great Crane Robbery - S8-E4

Audio problem: In the opening credits Frasier is in Cafe Nervosa with Roz, who is trying to sell him gift wrap. He says, "I'm not crazy about Garfield," and then his lips keep moving even though there is no sound heard.

Taking Liberties - S8-E5

Continuity mistake: The butler and Frasier are discussing the new president of the opera board and Ferguson pours Marty a cup of coffee. In the next shot, over Marty's shoulder, we see he already has the cup in his hand, although there was no time for this to happen naturally.

Taking Liberties - S8-E5

Continuity mistake: Roz is at Frasier's soirée joking with Mr. Worth about selling him some giftwrap. Just before she says "everything but my bracelets", her drink and hat switch from her right hand to her left and her canapé from her left to her right. In the next shot they've switched back again.

Taking Liberties - S8-E5

Selling Out - S1-E9

Frasier: Roger, at Cornell University they have an incredible piece of scientific equipment known as the Tunneling Electron Microscope. Now, this microscope is so powerful that by firing electrons you can actually see images of the atom, the infinitesimally minute building blocks of our universe. Roger, if I were using that microscope right now, I still wouldn't be able to locate my interest in your problem.

Caught in the Act - S11-E15

Trivia: When Nanette tells Frasier she's tired of playing her children's show character, she asks him if he knows what it's like to play the same character for twenty years. By this point, Kelsey Grammer had been playing Frasier for twenty years: eleven on 'Frasier' and nine on 'Cheers'.

A Day in May - S8-E23

Question: Beyond the obvious (he hasn't gotten over it or is still upset about it) is there a reason Martin didn't want to say anything at the parole hearing? And what was the point of showing this?

Answer: While he hasn't gotten over it, he also took into account what the shooter's mother said. He refused to make a statement either for or against him. He can't forgive the shooter, but he's gotten past the anger.
