Frasier Returns September 19 on Paramount+ for Season 2; Ted Danson's Netflix Comedy Premieres in November
Paramount+ debuted the official trailer and key art for the highly anticipated second season of its original comedy series Frasier, starring Kelsey Grammer. Season two will premiere on Thursday, September 19, with two episodes. New episodes will then drop weekly exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S., Canada, U.K. and Australia. The new season will launch later this year in additional territories where the service is available. Produced by CBS Studios, Frasier follows Frasier Crane (Grammer) in the next chapter of his life after he returns to Boston to face new challenges, forge new relationships and—with hope— finally fulfill an old dream or two. Frasier's sophomore season will see Dr. Frasier Crane return to his radio roots at KACL in a Seattle-themed episode. The series is filmed in front of a live studio audience at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles.
In addition to Grammer, the series stars Jack Cutmore-Scott as Frasier's son, Freddy; Nicholas Lyndhurst as Alan, Frasier's old college buddy turned university professor; Toks Olagundoye as Olivia, Alan’s colleague and head of the university's psychology department; Jess Salgueiro as Eve, Frasier and Freddy’s neighbor; and Anders Keith as Frasier's nephew, David. Previously announced guest stars for season two include Peri Gilpin, Dan Butler, Rachel Bloom, Yvette Nicole Brown, Greer Grammer, Patricia Heaton, Edward Hibbert, Harriet Sansom Harris and Amy Sedaris. Legendary director James Burrows also returns to direct two episodes.
