Kelsey Grammer sounded curt this morning when he brusquely told a BBC Today program interviewer that he still supports Donald Trump but, according to his interviewer, this curtness doesn’t tell the full story.

Grammer’s interviewer Justin Webb said the Frasier star was “perfectly happy” to go on talking about his support for the former POTUS, “the Paramount+ PR team, less so.”

Grammer has previously expressed support for Trump – a relatively rare position for a TV and movie star to take – and he also used his BBC interview to back Roseanne Barr, another self-confessed Trump supporter.

Loved the OG Frasier show. The new one is cringe as hell. Without Niles the show lost like 90% of its charm.

The show might've been named Frasier but Niles and Martin (dad) were absolutely crucial to the dynamic and success the show found. Without them it's missing 2/3rd of the team and is just another sequel churned out by Execs with no idea how to make a good show and only interested in making another dollar.

His son in the show is fucking awful too. The character is written and acted totally unlikeable. And Niles’ son is cringey like Sheldon from BBT and I just cannot get into it. Doubt it will last.

Oh look, how fucking original, another waitress upcoming failing actress in a sitcom. Sure, this is not something every other sitcom already do. The only character I enjoyed on the new series is the other professor, that have an honest humble snobbism that works well as a Niles replacement instead if Niles son.

Yeah very much agree the professor is the bright spot in the ensemble.
