When Dr. Frasier Crane walked into the bar where everybody knows your name, it started a run for the character that lasted 20 years (nine on Cheers and eleven on its spinoff, Fasier). As far as I can tell, this is the longest run for a sitcom character in television history.
Spinoffs usually don't fare very well, but Frasier certainly was an exception to that rule. A large part of that was due to the character of Frasier's brother, Dr. Niles Crane, played expertly by David Hyde Pierce. This week's installment of Friday Funnies brings you a classic example of comic acting, in what I think is one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen on TV.
