Frasier (Season 5) DVD ReviewPosted by Nick Niesen on October 27th, 2010 One of the top-rated sitcoms of the 1990s decade, Frasier follows the life and times of radio psychiatrist Dr. Frasier Crane. Recently divorced, Frasier moves back to his hometown of Seattle where he attempts to rekindle relationships with both his father and brother. Frasier?s father, Martin Crane (John Mahoney) was recently shot in the line of duty and forced into retirement when the wound left him with a limp. Frasier and his brother Niles (David Hyde Pierce) agree to have Marty move in with Frasier. Soon thereafter, they hire Daphne Moon (Jane Leeves) as the housekeeper and Martin?s physical therapist. Frasier?s colleague Roz Doyle makes recurring appearances throughout the series as well. One of the best written sitcoms of any era, Frasier is one of the few series in television history with hundreds of episodes which all hilarious? The Frasier (Season 5) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere ?Frasier?s Imaginary Friend? in which Frasier returns to Seattle from Acapulco where he enjoyed a blissful affair with a supermodel zoologist who, for personal reasons, asks him to keep their relationship a secret. But constant near-miss run-ins between Frasier?s family and the woman lead them to question whether Frasier is involved in a relationship at all. Exasperated, he spills the beans ? an action with profoundly negative consequences? Other notable episodes from Season 5 include ?My Fair Frasier? in which Frasier finds himself as ?the woman? in a relationship with a hard-nosed defense attorney, and ?The Ski Lodge? in which the Crane family, Daphne, and her friend take a weekend trip to a ski lodge where romantic misunderstandings abound?
