'''''Frasier''''' was an American sitcom (1993-2004) which was a spin-off from ''[[Cheers]]''. It revolved around the character [[Frasier Crane]] (played by [[Kelsey Grammer]]) and [[Niles Crane]] (played by [[David Hyde Pierce]]). Since Grammer plays the voice of [[Sideshow Bob]] on ''The Simpsons'' many references to ''Frasier'' on the show are often done in reference to Bob.

'''''Frasier''''' was an American sitcom, a spin-off of ''[[Cheers]]''. It revolved around the title character, psychiatrist Dr. [[Frasier Crane]] (played by [[Kelsey Grammer]]), who after the end of ''Cheers'' relocated to his hometown [[Seattle]] to host a radio call-in show. ''Frasier'' aired for 11 seasons from 1993 to 2004 on [[NBC]] and in 2023 a 2-season revival series aired on Paramount+. Many references to ''Frasier''  were around [[Sideshow Bob]] as Kelsey Grammer voiced [[Sideshow Bob]].

For the title character, see Frasier Crane.

Frasier was an American sitcom, a spin-off of Cheers. It revolved around the title character, psychiatrist Dr. Frasier Crane (played by Kelsey Grammer), who after the end of Cheers relocated to his hometown Seattle to host a radio call-in show. Frasier aired for 11 seasons from 1993 to 2004 on NBC and in 2023 a 2-season revival series aired on Paramount+. Many references to Frasier  were around Sideshow Bob as Kelsey Grammer voiced Sideshow Bob.

References to Frasier in The Simpsons[edit]

Picture Season Episode number Episode name Reference
5 208 "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" Jasper likes the idea that the jury discussion will not take long, because he heard that "the dog from Frasier is going to ride the dolphin on SeaQuest."
Frasier Brother from Another Series.png 8 169 "Brother from Another Series" The episode guest stars David Hyde Pierce as Cecil Terwilliger, younger brother of Sideshow Bob (who is voiced by Kelsey Grammer). Pierce and Grammer also play each other's brothers, Frasier Crane and Niles Crane, on Frasier, which is referenced in this episode's title. Before the cut to Bob and Cecil drinking wine inside Cecil's apartment there is an intertitle card done in the style of Frasier. Later in the episode when Bart covers Cecil's eyes and asks "Guess who?", Cecil guesses "Maris". Maris was Nile's wife in Frasier, an unseen character.
10 216 "Homer to the Max" A story is described as "it started out with a simple vision of 'Titanic' meets 'Frasier'".
11 227 "Beyond Blunderdome" On a tour of celebrity homes, Marge pointed out the house owned by the dog from Frasier.
13 280 "The Bart Wants What It Wants" Rainier Wolfcastle lists off his other characters besides McBain including "I was a voice on the Frasier."
15 319 "Today I Am a Clown" The subplot involving Santa's Little Helper being neutered after an incident with his owner's neighbor's pet dog got her pregnant resembles a similar plotline in the sitcom Frasier (specifically, it's the episode The Unkindest Cut of All.). In fact, both neighbors in that episode even say to the family that owns the dog "Well, I'm glad you like them, because they're your problem now!".
Funeral for a Fiend promo 2.png 19 408 "Funeral for a Fiend" The family lay-out in the popular series Frasier is repeated in this episode. Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde Pierce voice brothers in both series, while John Mahoney voices their father.
21 463 "The Bob Next Door" Marge and Homer try to reassure Bart by naming people who sound like Sideshow Bob: Frasier on Cheers, Frasier on Frasier, and Lt. Commander Tom Dodge on Down Periscope -- all three of whom were played by Kelsey Grammer, who provides the voice of Sideshow Bob.
Frasier2.png 21 464 "Judge Me Tender" At the Springfield Pet Fair, a banner says "Meet the stuffed dog from 'Frasier'".
Frasier Bart's Birthday.png 36 769 "Bart's Birthday" During the closing credits The Simpsons appears in spoofs of well-known TV series finales, one of them being The Sopranos.

References to Frasier in Simpsons Comics[edit]

Picture Comic issue Story name Reference
Frasier1.png Simpsons Comics #71 Simpson Sideshow Sibling Smackdown After Cecil Terwilliger has been released from prison, he is in Café Nervosa, a recurring location in Frasier, with Niles and Frasier sitting behind him.
Frasier.png Simpsons Comics #85 The Simpson Family Circus Bart and Homer watch an episode of Frasier where Niles Crane tells his brother Frasier that he allowed their father to intimidate him, as their dad has a firearm.
Marge the Sellout TV Guides.png Simpsons Comics #130 Marge the Sellout Old TV Guide covers include one of Frasier.
