16 Things ‘Frasier’ Fans Never Knew

13. Bet You Missed It!

The finale episode of Frasier sees Martin hugging Frasier goodbye and he says, “Thank you, Frasier.” What you might not have realized is that in the pilot episode Frasier and Martin have a huge fight because Frasier just wants his dad to say thank you, gratitude that never comes verbally . . . until the finale. Pretty damn cool!

14. Frasier Earned a Nom in Three Different Shows

The character of Frasier was nominated for Emmy awards on three different shows he appeared on over the years. Cheers and Frasier, of course, are the obvious ones, but he also made a guest appearance on Wings which earned him an nomination.

15. The 9/11 Tribute

One of the creators/executive producers of Frasier, David Angell, and his wife Linda were sadly among the passengers on American Airlines Flight 11 on that fateful September morning. The couple lost their lives when their plane crashed into the World Trade Tower. On the finale episode, Niles and his now-wife Daphne give birth to their son, who is named David Crane in homage to this man.
