Everyone’s favorite television psychiatrist is back for his third go around. Frasier and his emmy award winning cast return for one of the better seasons that the series produced. The third season sees more wackiness, more Eddie jokes, and more shenanigans at the radio station. The biggest story shift this year is Niles' (David Hyde Pierce) separation from the still unseen Maris, leaving him more free time to moon over Daphne (Jane Leeves). In a half-season arc, Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) finds himself at odds with, an... then in the arms of new station manager Kate Costas (Mercedes Ruehl). And along the way we meet gangsters, Diane Chambers returns (having written a hilarious play with a very familiar Boston setting), and the season finale gives us a look at Frasier's first week on the air - something we didn't get a good look at before, even in the pilot.

The outstanding writing that introduced us to these characters in the first 2 seasons returns with all guns a blazing for the third season, particularly showing some fine wit in the stories that centre around Nile’s separation from the mysterious Maris.
