Missing Niles In Frasier’s Reboot? David Hyde Pierce Has A New Show This Week You Need To Watch

Niles is missed in the Frasier reboot, but David Hyde Pierce’s brand-new show can remedy that. Kelsey Grammer’s Frasier Crane is back for his third and final act following an almost two-decade absence from the small screen. This time, he is back in Boston — his Cheers stomping ground armed with more experience and an expanded wealth. Settling back on the East Coast is motivated by his desire to repair his fractured relationship with his grown-up son, Freddy. Aside from that, however, it gives the Frasier reboot a way to explain Niles and his wife, Jane Leeves’ Daphne’s absence.
