Kelsey Grammer sounded curt this morning when he brusquely told a BBC Today program interviewer that he still supports Donald Trump but, according to his interviewer, this curtness doesn’t tell the full story.

Grammer’s interviewer Justin Webb said the Frasier star was “perfectly happy” to go on talking about his support for the former POTUS, “the Paramount+ PR team, less so.”

Grammer has previously expressed support for Trump – a relatively rare position for a TV and movie star to take – and he also used his BBC interview to back Roseanne Barr, another self-confessed Trump supporter.

      I’ve not heard good things. I did like the original, so I checked out the reviews on the reboot to see if I needed to put it in the queue. The reviews left me thinking it was better off missed and this information just seals it.

        They basically turned Freddy into Martin so they could rehash all the jokes from the original and throw all Frasier’s character development coming to terms with his dad’s flair out the window.

        And it feels like they became very self aware of that because the episodes I saw most recently are trying to reframe it as Frasier just having firefighter family’s anxiety and also resenting the popification of his psych show, but specifically in a way that mocks women who watch daytime television for being a demographic TV producers would cater a show to if it aired during the daytime television time slots.
