That was the most obvious example of Frasier behaving OOC.. I'm surprised Kelsey didn't veto the script or something.

'Tales from the Crypt' for me probably - its his only script that was watchable, and it still contained massive flaws.

To be honest though, I think Eric Zicklin wrote some worse episodes than SKP, just look at his CV (Mary Christmas, Motor Skills, A Day in May, Frasier Has Spokane, Kissing Cousin, etc) They are some of the worst examples of how to write sitcom ever!

I believe the phrase rhymes with "plucking bell!!"

I think this writer assassination is a little harsh. I almost want to swear. Almost.

"The Focous Group" was an episode that stood out among the series for me, although I don't think it was anything much special. I do find it very funny when Bulldog comments on the guy using the glass as a mirror!

Annyywaayyy. Back to the subject at hand. I found "TFTC" very good! epecialy considering who wrote it. I think it was actualy good, ot just for the writer, but as Frasier goes I think it was slightly above average.
Huge Frasier/Beatles fan ^_^

'Love Stinks' for me, because I don't think it's a particularly bad episode. Certainly not as bad as the other episodes on that list!

Wey-Hey! You and Strat agree on something!

I'm sorry but I still think that episode 'stinks' far worse than TFTC - IMO the only one of his episodes which actually felt like Frasier.

I loved Frasier's line(below) in Tales From The Crypt because I had actually read Boswell's life of Johnson prior to watching the episode. I really enjoyed it and I loved how Noel was hung on a meathook and left there by Bulldog after it had all finished :D

Frasier: You abandon me in my hour of need, now you’re here to revel in
my success, just like in Boswell's “Life of Johnson.”
Don't get me started on rationalistic pantheism or there go the whole three hours!
