10 TV Characters Finally Returning In 2022
1. Frasier Crane - Frasier
While it has been touted for several years now, it’s still not entirely clear whether the Frasier reboot is something that has been genuinely greenlit, something Kelsey Grammer is trying to will into existence, or just a fever dream that he’s sharing with the rest of us. Reports are confident it’s real, but there’s still precious little we know about it.
Accepting it’s actually going to happen, though, 2022 absolutely needs Frasier Crane to make a return. These are crazy, confusing times we live in, and if there’s anything that can sort us out, it’s a snooty, Seattle-based psychiatrist to cock a snook at the madness of modern life.
Having done the job for 20-odd years, it’s remarkable that Grammer wants to step back into the tweedy confines of his signature character again, but that’s a testament to the greatness of the creation. Frasier was a blowhard and a snob but one who always managed to wind up the butt of the joke, and Grammer’s dignity and depth made him one of the all time great sitcom characters.
