Kelsey Grammer’s acting dynasty just got stronger. Greer Grammer has apparently heard the blues a-callin’ and will join Paramount+’s Frasier reboot in Season 2. According to Variety, she’s playing Roz’s daughter who might or might not wind up dating Grammer’s fictional son, Freddy. Let’s all take a moment to pour a glass of sherry and process that, shall we?
We don’t know for sure that Grammer’s real daughter and fictional son are about to hook up, but her character description sure seems to want us to think as much: “Now in her late twenties, friendly, outgoing Alice has inherited more than some of her mother Roz’s free-spirited ways. Having just moved to Providence to study architecture, Alice is eager to catch up with Frasier’s son Freddy—and complicate whatever romantic plans he may have.”
Providence and Boston are less than an hour apart by Amtrak, so a fling certainly seems possible, even if it lasts for only one or two episodes. That said, I can only imagine the billable hours Frasier’s therapist is about to bank from this hook-up. Sure, he loves Roz as a friend, but the idea that they could become in-laws just might tip him over the edge. If anyone’s looking for a good drinking game, take a shot every time Frasier cries out, “Oh, dear God!”
