line of duty[edit]

Was Martin really shot 'in the line of duty'? I thought he accidently interrrupted an armed robbery. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sura8 (talk • contribs) 14:40, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

That's what is meant by the "line of duty" - he was shot while on it (duty). It doesn't matter if it was accidental. 70.27.106.34 (talk) 06:42, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Wendie Malick in infobox[edit]

I have to agree with the editors who have deleted Wendie Malick from the infobox. She 1) never appeared in the lead credits and 2) only appeared in 10 episodes according to IMDb. This is fewer than many other guest stars including Tom McGowan, Edward Hibbert, Thomas Kerr, Saul Rubinek, and Jane Adams. We make exceptions for Dan Butler because he appeared in the lead credits in several episodes, and Moose/Enzo because they appeared in pretty much 100% of all episodes, but I'd be OK with excluding the dogs from the infobox if there's a consensus to do so there, too.

The only principled distinction I can make between Malick and the other guest stars you mention is their episodes were spread out over more than one season, while Malick's 10 episodes were compressed into one. I also don't know who appeared in the lead credits and who didn't because I don't have the DVDs of the show, so I'll just accept your representation as to that. Still, I take your point (now that it's been explained more thoroughly, thanks) and have no objection to removing Malick. Unlike Frasier himself, I don't care if Eddie is left in the infobox (:-)), and I agree with the editor who put in the second dog - if we decide to keep the first.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:39, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your cooperation. Regarding the lead credits, I've never seen Frasier on DVDs, but would be surprised if you saw anything differently from the TV version. The lead credits I am talking about are the regular actors' names in white in the opening scene; Butler's name appeared with those of Grammer, Pierce, Mahoney, Gilpin, and Leeves in several episodes with the actor, although I can't confirm that this happened in three different seasons as the infobox currently claims.

Roz's nationality[edit]

I remember her origin being Scottish in one episode. Is there any source saying she's English? 76.6.140.215 (talk) 14:56, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Spoiler in Background[edit]

I was reading the Background and assumed there wouldn't be any spoilers, as it pertains strictly to background information. In regards to the last sentence in the first paragraph of the Background, "Niles becomes infatuated with, and eventually falls in love with, Daphne, but does not confess his feelings to her until the final episode of the seventh season.", that's a pretty big spoiler. Can we talk about having it removed or obscured to a degree where it doesn't give specific episode content? Every other part of the Background is pretty general and doesn't go as in depth as the above sentence. Keep it classy - Halojedi20 (talk) 01:46, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

Halojedi20: Read WP:SPOILER. All articles have spoilers and should have. Including spoilers improves quality, especially per MOS:TV. --George Ho (talk) 02:48, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

NBC and Paramount[edit]

Hello, GoldenGuy23. Do you think that citing both NBC and Paramount are necessary? You can read WP:Inline citation#When you must use inline citations (WP:MINREF) and figure out which info is challenging or not. --George Ho (talk) 22:39, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, George Ho. In reference to the Frasier web page, The only reason I put citations for both original network NBC and original distributor Paramount Television is because Frasier is currently distributed by a different network entirely (CTD). GoldenGuy23 (talk) 06:09, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

All right. Consider the info likely to be challenged for now. Well... not much of an issue to make a fuss about, but... I'll respect your edits then. :) --George Ho (talk) 07:16, 20 June 2017 (UTC)

Nielsen ratings[edit]

Hello, TVBuff90. Why did you remove the Nielsen ratings chart? The edit summary is blank, so I think explanation is needed please. --George Ho (talk) 17:52, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Because the ratings can be displayed in the series overview on the episode list. TVBuff90 (talk) 17:59, 20 October 2017 (UTC)
