The Ski Lodge makes me laugh every time. Yahoo did a great oral history of the episode with some cool behind the scenes insight.

We’re making our way thru it now. We never finished the series in the initial run. Missed probably the last 2-3 seasons. It’s been really fun going back to these. We’re on the back end of season 3 right now. Every episode so far has gotten at least one good belly laugh from me.

There is something so innocent and pure about a sitcom like Frasier. The Ski Lodge in season 5 is probably the perfect 20 min sitcom episode. If you don't watch another episode watch that one. Just simple and brilliant comedy.

Did you know that Moose, the dog who played Eddie, died around season 7? Moose had two children and one of them took over for the rest of the seasons. I think they even had to paint him a bit to look like his dad.

This was my dad's favorite show. I brought him back a Frasier t-shirt from Seattle and he wore it at least 6 days a week.

When I was extremely poor in my early 20s I used to watch it late at night on a tiny antenna tv. It was comforting listening to Kelsey Grammar be such a boob.

Never seen it but they have done stories here locally about how absurdly expensive his fictional condo would have been

That's the thing, he was a radio host. That condo was huge. Had to have been a million dollar place.bit just doesn't add up.

I know he's dead. He used to sit in the booth during cubs games after singing 7th inning stretch. That was the first time I heard that Moose was not very pleasant to work with.

I've loved every episode of Frasier I've ever watched but I never really followed it closely or watched the whole thing. Maybe I will do that soon

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
