Niles & Daphne’s Frasier Reboot Absence Is A "Blessing", Says EP

The Frasier reboot won’t feature Niles and Daphne, but executive producer Chris Harris says that it’s actually a blessing. When Kelsey Grammer steps back into the world of Frasier Crane, he will do so without the majority of the beloved cast from the original Seattle-based series. While the show will be missing several key players, its biggest absences, however, are definitely Frasier’s fan-favorite brother, David Hyde Pierce’s Niles, and his lady love, Jane Leeves’ Daphne.
