I've added a footnote about how she calls him Niles once they start dating. I can't remember if she started to call Frasier by his first name or not, but I remember that she still called Martin 'Mr Crane'. There was a joke about it in the episode where they got married.

As always, research and changes are up to the researcher's discretion. But, I will pay closer attention to the post-marriage episodes. I'm pretty certain that the dad became 'Martin', but only remember one or two times when she called Frasier by his first name.

Not terribly important to your piece, so no worries.

Well I remember a joke in the episode where they got married when Martin told her, now that she's family, to call him Martin, or dad, or whatever she's comfortable with. So she said "Thank you Mr Crane" or something along those lines.

That could indeed be what I'm remembering. There was also one, or more, occasions when she was asked to call Frazier by his first name and got quite tickled by it. (she may have even dropped it to the dimunitive 'Fraze'.

Ah well. Memories are dodgy things, aren't they?

Indeed they are.

I think Paramount Comedy is somewhere around season 9 or 10. I'll watch it tonight and see.

Hasn't she just resorted to 'Old Man' by now?

Or 'grumpy old sod'.

OK, after some searching I added a little paragraph near the end about how Niles came 10th in Channel 4s 100 greatest TV characters show.

Great entry smiley - smiley

About the character descriptions: what is really essential to Frasier in my opinion is that he's *conceited*. He just happens to think he's an intellectual giant, which makes him both annoying and lovable.

I also wouldn't say Niles was all that arrogant, or even pompous (compared to Frasier), but that's up to you of course.

Nitpicks:

was every given -> was ever given

there should be a comma after >>Something Blue’<<

at the alter -> at the altar

each of the shows creators surnames -> each of the show's creators' surnames

I don't have much time now, but I sorted out some of the spelling errors. I couldn't find the "was every given -> was ever given" one though.
