A TV rarity, Frasier stands alone as being the only smart comedy. No don't get me wrong, Seinfeld, News radio, Everybody Loves Raymond etc are great, but to the intellectuals and introspective people out there, Frasier is intelligent, rewarding and complementive viewing I've already got seasons one through four, and I'll be getting season 5 soon. They had some really classic epiosdes here. Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde-Pierce are great as the two Psychiatrist brothers with day-to-day dilemmas. The music is sharp and classy, the supporting cast is fantastic, but this is Grammer's show, and single-handedly makes this a winner. To the inward-searching person hiding within everyone, Frasier is the best.

I love Frasier. I own all of the other seasons currently available on DVD. I received my Season 5 in the mail today, popped the first disc in the DVD player and voila! advertisement, after advertisement, after advertisement...It's disgusting and disappointing, not to mention, extremely inconvenient since I have a small child who I'd prefer did not see ads for MacGiver or whatever show it is, with things blowing up, etc. This is enough to make me consider returning this set and not buying any future releases. PARAMOUNT, If you can hear me, PLEASE: NO MORE ADS ON MY DVDs!!!!!!!!

I love dogs, especially Jack Russell Terriors. I sure hope he will continue his TV career. This show is actually kind of boring and pretetious. But I'll give it 2 stars for the dog.

The high points of this fine series have already been covered, now instead of the show, let's talk about the product. Very big JEERS AND SNEERS as Paramount once again makes us pay money to watch its advertisements. Be prepared for 5-10 minutes of advertising you can't fast-forward through in order to watch your DVDs. You can even use the "title menu" button. All standard control methods to bypass the advertising have been blocked on the disks.
The show is a first rate 5-star accomplishment. The product, or rather its company, is turning into a 1-star annoyance with each new disk they put out. Hence the overall low rating I give this set of DVDs as a product, not as a show. I paid for a show, not as tricked funding for advertising.

Season five is clever, warm, and funny. I'm so glad it's been released. My husband I excitedly put in the first disk. We were forced to sit through a long ad for Happy Days, and the disk is set up so the viewer cannot fast forward or jump to the main menu. We shrugged and waited.
Following the long ad for Happy Days were ads for Laverne and Shirley, Mork and Mindy, McGyver, Charmed, and if you can believe it . . . The Brady Bunch. These are not brief missives, and you cannot fast forward. We were stunned and more than a little annoyed.
My advice is to leave the TV off, and put the disk in the DVD player at least ten minutes before you're ready to watch it.
