It's in Look before you leap. (Not that you asked, but anyway! ;) ) Frasier convinces Roz to call out on the air for this handsome stranger she just met; he shows up at the station and it turns out he is married and just wants an affair. Yes, great physical comedy in that scene!

New to the forum. Have lurked occasionally and finally decided to join. My friends and family call me the Frasier encyclopedia because watching the show is kind of a stress reliever for me. (And motivator for housework, strangely) Nothing else works as well. So by virtue of the number of hours watched, I've retained a lot of useless Frasier trivia. Looking forward to talking with fellow enthusiasts.

Now on to the question. So hard to choose just one, so here are a few:

In "Enemy at the Gate" when Roz accidentally tells everyone that she and Frasier slept together and Frasier bursts into the booth going off on an unknowingly embarrassing monologue.

The first act of "Three Valentines" - David Hyde Pierce is brilliant

This one is low brow, but gets me every time: The elevator scene in "Three Dates and a Breakup" with Frasier trying to tuck in his shirt.

The 'Let your brother play' speech in "Forgotten But Not Gone".

"a line started to form behind me", "my brother was with me for moral support"

and last but not least "I got out of there without paying the four dollars!" :lol: :lol: :D

The saving grace of an otherwise dull episode.

A perfect choreography!

After Daphne told him that there was a hidden camera...


The 'Let your brother play' speech in "Forgotten But Not Gone".


I wouldn't have picked that one out. It was only mildly amusing in my opinion.

Perhaps because English isn't my first language. But I love Daphne's brother Michael in the very last episode, the one who speaks such incomprehensible English. His little speech where he explains that he understood how to fire the cannon -- "Boom!" is just hilarious.

Well, even Frasier says that he doesn't understand a word the guy is saying, so it may just be that the man's apparent gibberish, is just that... gibberish.

Again, I'm disagreeing on this episode, which I find enjoyable throughout--and Luis Guzman was wonderfully deadpan.

Great Niles line: "You won't be satisfied until either everyone agrees with you or has suffered for failing to."

And what about "Trust me, no one is more 'birdly' than Niles!"

Deapan? What else could he have done? He was playing a toll booth guy who's work is being disturbed by some rich snob against whom he can't do much. I've seen Burger<thing> serving people react a similar way to some of the jerks they have to put up with up until the point where the client crosses the line and is escorted out of the restaurant by the bouncer. "Deapan" is about the only kind of attitude they are allowed to have. Some of these people are smart enough to get the guy fired in a minute, if he'd lose his cool even for a couple of sentences.

Great Niles line: "You won't be satisfied until either everyone agrees with you or has suffered for failing to."

That line is right on the money about Frasier but only mildly funny, especially when compared to the final speech.

...And what about "Trust me, no one is more 'birdly' than Niles!"

A nice bit of double entendre.

Having just watched the final episode for the first time it's fresh in my memory, and there must be other moments I've forgotten about for now, but when Niles walked out of the veterinary room holding the monkey....my wife and I almost choked we laughed so much. Utter genius.

Getting back to this old exchange because I saw the episode last night - I'm in stitches every time Michael opens his mouth ("Yo, Fraso!..."). But I understood that most English speakers don't think that any of the Moon brothers sound very authentic. So I wonder how well Michael was received?

:twisted: The Moon brothers take a BIG suspention of disbelief :lol:
I find Simon the most dislikable by far.
Michael seems to be the offspring of Yorkshire and Scotland :lol:
I think his character works much better for not speaking clearly. Just one clear word after a bunch of nonsence. "Cannon" was good, but my favourite line (while discussing drinks) was "irjrgwethjwdgk[dehgjeorhpwdkgwehyjr3pwkghdqlkghkwt - THREE" (holds fingers up) :lol:
I think Michael is quite a likeable bloke.

What's funny is that while he says "...THREE!", Michael holds four fingers up. :lol:

When Frasier recites his speech to Freddie in Klingon in Star Mitzvah is priceless. :lol: :lol: That episode and
Daphne Does Dinner are the best episodes of Season 10. It's hard to find good episodes in that season.

If we're talking about moments, I'd say when in Shrink Rap Frasier tries to high five Niles and the latter shrinks back in fear. :D

She's The Boss 3/1 so many lol moments in this ep: :lol:

Niles jumping on the coffee table during the mishap with the starter pistol.
Frasier and Roz falling asleep while on the air.
Frasier and Roz arguing and Roz yelling "Freaks, Freaks on Line One, Freaks on Line Two!"
Frasier and Roz doing a sex talk show in the middle of the night and Roz becomes Kitty.

You have to watch it from the beginning, but from the second half of the show, it's one lol moment after another!
Even the tag scene at the end where Eddie has the cone around his neck and they put him on top of the TV to get better reception is funny.

First time posting... I really love Out With Dad in general, but the best part for me is after Niles gets muscled into pretending to be his dad's boyfriend and in an effort to escape, he totally hams it up to storm out for Martin's ~suspicion~. Every time I see it I burst out laughing when he turns on his heel and starts yelling indignantly, and the look on Martin's face! Priceless.

I also love the Hot and Foamy bit, but for me I always wait for Daphne's line. It cracks me up. "You know what musta happened? My hot and foamy musta exploded!" and Daphne says "He was a detective, you know!"

Another favorite moment of mine is pretty early on, I can't remember what episode it was. Niles is talking to Daphne in the kitchen and he's trying to very casually sit on the counter, but he's a little too short to do it and has a couple false starts before he finally jumps up and smacks his head on the hood and collapses to the floor. Great slapstick. Another hilarious Niles moment in the kitchen is when Martin asks him to fish out whatever is blocking the disposal, so he sticks his hand down in the sink. Then Frasier obliviously turns on the coffee grinder and Niles screams and flings himself away from the sink, crashing into all the stuff sitting on the opposite counter.

Niles is my favorite so I guess I like his snarky humor and occasional total humiliation the most >.>

I also laugh every time in Moon Dance, when Frasier says he's taking Frederick to colonial Williamsburg and Roz says 'Hey, Frederick Crane, you've just finished the first grade! What are you gonna do now? 'I'M GOIN TO BUTTERWORLD'", lol I'm laughing just thinking about it. Her delivery is perfect, too.

That was a great fall!
Every time Niles falls it's hilarious! I usually rewind several times and also play it in slow motion to see what the other characters are doing during the fall. He's the best at physical comedy :bounce:
