Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name. So it's back to Boston — minus what made the original 'Frasier' work.

Frasier Crane is back in Boston. Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name. If only the “Frasier” revival for Paramount+ conjured anything close to the effervescent wit of the Seattle-set original, which ran for 11 seasons on NBC from 1993 to 2004. Or even the comedic zing of “Cheers,” where the character first sprang to life in 1984 as an unlikely but winning addition to the cast, the annoyingly cultured Harvard-trained windbag to the show’s shabbier Boston barflies.

Where’s the fizzy repartee? The joyous physical comedy? There are cynical intellectual property grabs and then there’s whatever this is. A way to further pad Grammer’s bank account? He looks tanned and rich. And semi-checked out. Dressed in dark jeans and Allbirds, he resembles a sexagenarian mogul wandering around Sun Valley looking for his next networking opportunity.
