The man to drag off the Daughter-Daughter-Double-Dip is Kelsey Grammer, scribbling his title on a well-deserved paycheck to daughter Greer Grammer. She’ll play the daughter of fan-favorite Roz (Peri Gilpin) on Season Two of the Frasier reboot. The junior Grammer little doubt beat out lots of of gifted actresses for the position.
Selection has the lowdown on Greer’s character, Alice: “Now in her late 20s, pleasant, outgoing Alice has inherited greater than a few of her mom Roz’s free-spirited methods. Having simply moved to Windfall to review structure, Alice is keen to meet up with Frasier’s son Freddy — and complicate no matter romantic plans he could have.”
Wait a minute — is Selection insinuating that Kelsey’s real-life daughter has romantic designs on his fictional son? What demented type of slash-fiction are they churning out at Paramount+ as of late? If solely there have been some form of radio psychiatrist we may name to type out all of the Freudian implications.
The romantically prolific Grammer claims he’s by no means inspired any of his seven youngsters by 4 completely different wives to enter present enterprise, however Selection says most of them have ended up within the enterprise (or aspire to) anyway. For instance, Spencer Grammer landed a plum position within the 2022 Lifetime film The 12 Days of Christmas Eve. In a accident, Kelsey occurred to each produce and star within the film.
“(Spouse #4) Kayte and I have been speaking about the way it’s actually one thing {that a} youngster would comply with of their father’s footsteps,” Grammer explains. “To assume that every one my children, no less than those which have a hand within the air, are able to take duty for his or her lives, are all drawn to this trade. And he or she mentioned, ‘That’s one thing to be pleased with.’”
But it surely’s not all sitcoms and Lifetime films, says Grammer. “It’s a little bit of a combined blessing to have my final title,” he says. “Folks take it out on you. You get some consideration perhaps due to it. And there’s a break up as as to whether or not it’s good or dangerous.”
