More than 100 artists contributed to our “Our Frasier Remake,” a frame-by-frame redo of a 1994 episode of NBC sitcom “Frasier,” with the Seattle psychiatrist reimagined as a Lego figure, as Claymation and a dazzling array of other animation styles.
The trailer for the indie project, which follows similar projects “Our Robocop Remake and “Our Footloose Remake,” dropped on Wednesday. It will premiere on Oct. 11 in theaters in Los Angeles, Seattle and Austin, the day before the official reboot, which sees Kelsey Grammer returning to his Emmy-winning role, debuts on Paramount+
“Our Frasier Remake” redoes the Season 1 finale, with 185 uniquely animated segments: A different artist is responsible for each section, reimagining it in their own visual style.
Creator/director Jacob Reed said the episode is “a thinly veiled question about whether or not a spin-off of ‘Cheers’ called ‘Frasier’ was worth it.”
“Three decades later, we’re asking the same question about the reboot,...

It’s the biggest fans of a beloved TV show who are set up to be the most disappointed when a revival or reboot comes around. In some instances, die-hard devotees would rather see nothing at all than a season of television that diminishes their favorite characters. In the case of the Frasier reboot, one fan decided to create his own dream remake to soften the blow.
Jacob Reed’s Our Frasier Remake is a frame-by-frame recreation of “My Coffee With Niles,” the Frasier Season 1 finale, made from hundreds of six- to 12-second contributions from animators, puppeteers, filmmakers, illustrators, and other creatives. The script and storyboard stay the same, but the visuals of each section (which Reed calls batches) depict a different version of the scene and each character.
“It's kind of like if Adult Swim rebooted Frasier,” Reed tells Primetimer.
