Trivia
Casting director Sheila Guthrie recommended that the creators of Frasier (1993) should invent a part for David Hyde Pierce in part because of his physical resemblance to Kelsey Grammer. She left them with tapes of this series, and they were so dazzled by his performance that they devised the role of Niles Crane explicitly for him.
