It's the season of sequels and comebacks and the iconic show Frasier is returning too. The popular show is being revived after 19 years and it will have actor Kelsey Grammer reprising the iconic Frasier Crane role.&nbsp; 
 
The reboot is set to debut on October 12 with its first two episodes on Paramount+ in the US and Canada.&nbsp; 
 
A new teaser has Kelsey performing the show’s theme song, "Tossed Salads &amp; Scrambled Eggs." 

Frasier first premiered in 1993 and has 11 seasons. 
 
"The new series follows Dr&nbsp;Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer) in the next chapter of his life as he returns to Boston with new challenges to face, new relationships to forge and an old dream or two to finally fulfill," a press release said. "Frasier has re-entered the building!"

Kelsey has been listed as the only original cast member set to return. Other stars who will appear in the show include Jack Cutmore-Scott, Nicholas Lyndhurst, Toks Olagundoye, Jess Salgueiro and Anders Keith.

"Niles (Crane) and Daphne (Moon) are not coming back," Kelsey previously told TODAY of the characters played by David Hyde Pierce and Jane Leeves. "If there is a spot for a one-off appearance, and they're interested, I'm sure we would do something like that. But, it's a new world. It's a new life. Frasier's going back to Boston to put himself back in a place where he didn't feel like he quite made it." Kelsey added, “He wants to feel like he conquered it again.” Kelsey also told the news outlet PEOPLE that David “wasn’t really interested in repeating the performance of Niles.” 
 
Frasier is written by Chris Harris and Joe Cristalli. The iconic show has won as many as 37 Emmys.

Frasier is coming back! Reboot version to feature Kelsey Grammer in titular role

Before Lisa Kudrow became a star playing Phoebe Buffay in hit show 'Friends', the actress had appeared in small roles in iconic shows like 'Frasier' and 'Mad About You'.&nbsp;

Turns out, Kudrow was fired from the sets of 'Frasier' just days&nbsp;into filming

While joining her sitcom co-stars Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox on Wednesday`s edition of Sirius XM`s `The Howard Stern Show`, Kudrow revealed that she was also tapped to play Roz Doyle on `Frasier` but was pulled from the gig three days into filming its pilot episode.

"I wasn`t right for the part (or)&nbsp;for the chemistry of the group. So that wasn`t working but I did think, `Oh, I am not this guy`s cup of tea,`" she said of director James Burrows and his decision to scrap Kudrow for that of Peri Gilpin.

The Kelsey Grammer-led `Frasier` ran for 11 seasons on NBC from 1993 to 2004. Paramount+ announced in February that a revival series was given the go-ahead with Grammer set to reprise his role as Frasier Crane.

Perhaps, Burrows, who directed a few episodes of `Friends` as well, wanted to see Kudrow in another light as the star&nbsp;also revealed that she was "the only one of the six (`Friends` stars)&nbsp;who had to go in and audition for (Burrows)," adding that she "had one extra audition just for James Burrows."

"I did it and he went, `No notes,`" Kudrow recalled of the career moment. "I left going, `That either means she`s beyond help and helpless, just like I always knew,` or `Yeah, it`s perfect. I have no notes.`"

Kudrow ultimately did land the role as Phoebe but she&nbsp;told Stern that she initially didn`t feel as connected to the other characters and wasn`t sure she would jibe with the crew as a whole.

"Shooting the pilot that week I was like, `All right, here we go,`" she recalled. "Phoebe was not the character that was part of this group really, that easily. There was a struggle."

The cast of `Friends`, including Kudrow, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, and Matthew Perry recently came together to film a reunion special that aired on HBO Max.

`Friends` originally aired for 10 seasons on NBC from 1994 to 2004. The beloved sitcom followed the story of six friends in their 20s and 30s who live in Manhattan, New York City.

Paramount Plus to revive '90's classic show 'Frasier'?

Actor John Mahoney, who portrayed the no-nonsense father in the TV sitcom &quot;Frasier,&quot; has died in Chicago at the age of 77, his longtime theater company said Monday.

Mahoney played the iconic role of Martin Crane for all 11 seasons of the popular sitcom until 2004. He won numerous acting accolades including nominations for Emmys and Golden Globes.&nbsp;

His manager Paul Martino told the industry trade publication Variety that the actor died Sunday in hospice care in Chicago. His longtime Chicago theatrical home Steppenwolf Theatre Company confirmed Mahoney&#39;s death.&nbsp;

The character actor was born in England, but moved to the United States at the age of 19 to teach English at a college in Illinois, according to Variety.&nbsp;

Chicago was his longtime home, and he had said he felt happiest when in the Windy City.

&quot;John Mahoney was a fixture on the Chicago stage,&quot; Mayor Rahm Emanuel said in remembrance. &quot;Even as his fame grew through his fantastic work in movies and television, John stayed connected to his artistic home here in Chicago.

&quot;Though he will be missed, his work and impact will endure for generations to come.&quot;

Mahoney got his acting start in Chicago relatively lately, when he was 40 in the late 1970s, after fellow actors John Malkovich and Gary Sinise invited him to join the then-nascent Steppenwolf, according to the Chicago Tribune.&nbsp;

He appeared in more than 30 productions at the prestigious theater, according to the company&#39;s biography.&nbsp;

Mahoney appeared in numerous films and TV shows, and continued to appear on television as recently as 2015 in the TV series &quot;Foyle&#39;s War.&quot;

His more than three decades-long career in film saw him appear in movies such as &quot;The American President,&quot; &quot;Moonstruck&quot; and &quot;Say Anything.&quot;

&quot;Rest In Peace, John Mahoney. &#39;Say Anything&#39; is one of my favorite films of all time,&quot; said actor Ken Jeong.&nbsp;

Mahoney won a number of acting awards, including Tony and Screen Actors Guild trophies.&nbsp;
