1/10
Painful to watch

Even though the form requires at least 600 characters, this episode can be described in just one word: terrible.

It has been a trend in later seasons, especially for some writers of the show, to make the character of Frasier more and more unlikable. Sure, he was flawed form the start, and that was one of the reasons his character was funny, but in the earlier seasons, you could most definitely call him a good person. But as the series got on, he became more and more flawed until there were more than a few episodes in which Frasier is clearly depicted as a bad person.

I was not surprised to see that this episode was written by Lori Kirkland, who was responsible for some of the worst episodes of the show and who seems to have some personal issue with the character of Frasier, because it was her who so often tried her best to make him despicable (think of the Secret Admirer episode, for instance). If she hated the character so much, she shouldn't have been a part of the show.

Boring, unfunny episode, starring a character who looks like Frasier Crane, but has a completely different personality.
