Frasier dramatically canceled by Paramount+ after | TV Shows

Frasier’s comeback has hit a major roadblock.

Paramount+ has confirmed it will not be renewing the comedy starring Kelsey Grammer, who voted for Donald Trump, despite high hopes for the series’ return.

Producers from CBS Studios remain committed to the show and plans to shop it to other platforms.

CBS, the network home of the original Frasier, is not likely to pick up the series. Instead, CBS Studios is looking to other streaming platforms like Prime Video and Hulu, which already carry the original Frasier episodes.

The only other comedy series on the streaming service is Colin From Accounts, an international co-production that, while successful, operates under a completely different production model.

While the new Frasier series added fresh faces to the cast—Jack Cutmore-Scott as Frasier’s son Freddy, Nicholas Lyndhurst as Alan, his old college buddy-turned-professor, and Toks Olagundoye as Olivia.

The show also brought back fan-favorite characters.

Bebe Neuwirth reprised her role as Frasier’s ex-wife Lilith, with Peri Gilpin, Dan Butler, Edward Hibbert, and Harriet Sansom Harris all returning as their beloved characters from the original series.
