It was great to see them married...there was a small period after that, that i felt Daphne got a little high strung...but overall i feel the writers made a brillant job. I enjoyed the ep Daphne does Dinner,,very funny. I miss Fraiser.

One of the better attempts at farce during the O'Shannon years.
It's a shame Daphne changed from loveable kook to overbearing nag when she and Niles got together but I guess there are lots of easy laughs to be mined in that area. On the positive side you could certainly say Daphne's character evolved the most over the 11 seasons.

I used to watch The Nanny before I watched Frasier, and even if it's not the same quality as this show, at least Fran Drescher sure knows how to kiss!

That's pretty much what I was expecting, but I really didn't get that. Oh well. We'll always have the fanfics!

One episode Daphne mentioned going to the opera and it just rang false. I will say though that while the show went down in quality, by Frasier standards, it was much better than most else on tv.
