Where's it gone? And why only one episode of Everyone Loves Raymond? Very depressing.

    IMO they should air it in the evenings - where it was intended

    I agree. I also find 'Everybody Loves Raymond' depressing.

    Apparantly, it's meant to be a comedy!

    I know. I was shocked too.

    I watched a morning repeat of Frasier on C4 once, realised the episode had been edited (and badly, at that), and didn't bother again.

    What's the point of showing things in unsuitable timeslots? C4 is so ridiculous for censorship. Especially with their repeats of Friends.

    I know comedy is subjective but I can't believe there is anyone who'd find Everybody Loves Raymond funny. I've always found it unwatchable, dreary dross.

    Does your question “is it?” refer to whether the boxset is in HMV, is £50 or whether it is, indeed, reasonable? :confused:

    If you get the UK boxset you'll miss out on one of the classic Frasier moments as the episode Daphne's Room has Kelsey Grammer's short performance of Great Balls of Fire edited out due to licencing issues.

    But at that price its a great deal.
    Buy it then get the US set of season 2 to replace the UK one

    Frasier is back on 8.30 Wednesday morning. :)

    Agree it should be on in the evenings, instead of some of the drivlel we get. Please Channel 4 take note.

    The best comedy show ever in my opinion.

    It airs on Comedy Central X at 3 and 3,30, 5 and 5.30 and 8 and 8pm

    Plus most weekends, like the one just past, they show Frasier all day

    Probably like all Frasier fans, I bought each season box set as they came out (in my case, R1 from Play.com)
    Brilliant comedy.:D

    Frasier returns next Tuesday at 7.40 a.m. (but there's always +1) moving to 7.35 and then 7.10 later in the week. It's in the same sort of slot the week after but moves around a bit day to day.

    Amazon has it at £54.

    Tempted - although I've seen most many times. Always good.

    Best American sitcom for me and up there with Fawlty Towers, OAH and Blackadder S" as best of all.

    Can anyone recall an episode where Martin upsets the owner (Robert - which has a delicious line based on the Englush and french pronuciation of the name) of a fancy food store which stocks a dog food that Eddie falls in love with?

    I could quite happily watch Frasier all day. Just give me a massive bowl of chocolate (Galaxy counters), large mug of tea and house all by myself. The best comedy show by miles. I watch C4 in the morning, then switch over to CC for 9am.

    Comedy Central are also showing HD episodes of Frasier although as expected it would seem only the last couple of seasons were produced with HD in mind.

    Looks like they were also made for widescreen as the 16:9 picture does seem to have more at the sides than the 4:3 dvd's .

    It would seem that the Frasier team were more forward thinking than the Friends people

    And Malcolm In The Middle beat them all. The whole lot are HD abled! The only thing not so is the starting credits in the first few seasons.

    Only until Diane left. It was a long slow decline after that.

    I liked both the Diane Chambers and Rebecca Howe era's equally. After Diane Carla, Norm and Cliffy got more screen time which was nice.

    I thought it was the other way round.

    Rebecca was a far better character than the annoying Diane and her whiney voice.

    They also developed the other characters a lot more - including a young psychiatrist..........
