10 Frasier & Cheers Characters We Most Want To Return In Season 2 Of The Reboot
The Frasier reboot had two notable guest stars, Roz and Lilith, but there are several more characters from both the original Frasier and Cheers that fans want to appear in the revival's second season. Lilith, who appeared in both Cheers and its spin-off as Frasier's wife, gave a boost of sardonic humor and tumult to the reboot's mid-season, and Roz appeared at the end of Frasier's ten episodes to offer some friendly advice to a Frasier who found himself at a crossroads. Without his father, Martin present to provide his signature candor, the good doctor struggled to connect with Freddie.
Returning to Boston has made Cheers season 2 cameos seem inevitable, particularly since Sam's bar is still open. Still, even with the bar nearby, Frasier had to get used to a new assortment of colleagues being a professor at Harvard University, as well as keep an eye on his nephew David, all the while occupying the same position as father did by moving in with his adult son. Original characters from Frasier and Cheers would both ground the reboot and lend it authenticity, particularly since the Frasier reboot got a lot wrong and only seemed to find its stride in the last few episodes.
Naturally, the most sought-after character to return for the Frasier reboot would be Niles Crane, Frasier's younger and more fastidious brother. David Hyde Pierce has expressed disinterest in playing Niles again, but the first season was successful, and there are many ways that Niles could make a cameo, even if it's just to keep an eye on his son's scholastic activities at Harvard. Niles' presence has been salient, with his banter, witticisms, and barbs at his brother's expense given to several other characters to get Frasier's goat.
Of Frasier's coworkers, Bulldog was arguably one of his most despised, but the KACL sports host went from being Frasier's rival and nemesis to being one of his friends. After Roz's guest starring appearance in the season 1 finale, it would be a change of pace to see Bulldog blow into Boston. He would get along well with Freddie and the rest of the gang at the fire station, and would have some truly hilarious scenes at Harvard making fun of all the faculty.
Of the two original Frasier cast members who appeared on the Frasier reboot, Roz and Lilith, Lilith had the most substantial plot participation celebrating Freddie's birthday with Frasier in Boston. She also delivered some truly scathing lines that sharpened the wit of the series and returned it to the original's biting and sardonic glory. The barbs exchanged between Frasier and Liliith are always a highlight of any episode they're both in and an injection of Lilith's formidable and icy presence, particularly as Freddie achieves other milestones (promotion to fire chief, marriage to a girlfriend, adopting Eve's child as his own), can only elevate the revival even more.
