The Frasier reboot pilot makes good with Kelsey Grammer's promise that the new show will honor John Mahoney with several Martin Crane Easter eggs.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary The Frasier reboot pilot features several references to Martin Crane. Despite Kelsey Grammer's Frasier Crane claiming that his father was dead in Cheers, NBC walked back on the revelation and introduced John Mahoney as the Frasier patriarch in the original Frasier.
In the new show, Frasier essentially becomes his father as he attempts to reconnect with Freddy. Now, the tables have turned because he is in the position of power to drive what their relationship would be moving forward. Luckily for him, his experience with Martin can serve as a guiding light for his new predicament.
4 Jen's Baby Is Named John In The Frasier Reboot The Frasier reboot pilot features the first proper look at Freddy's Boston apartment, which he shares with his friend, Jess. Initially, there were assumptions that they were a couple, but at the end of "The Good Father," Freddy admits that Jess is the girlfriend of his late firefighter friend. Because of his survivor's guilt, he helps her in raising their baby, named John — another clear reference to John Mahoney.
2 Frasier Shares Details About Martin's Well-Planned Funeral Frasier and Martin's relationship was one of the best things about the original Frasier series, so leaning into a similar theme in the new show makes sense. It's also an indication that Paramount+ understands what made the original sitcom very successful.
