The Cheers, running from 1993-2004 and winning numerous Emmys. Paramount+ has ordered a Frasier reboot/revival, and Roz is arguably the only major character who could return in a meaningful capacity.
Frasier reboot will once more follow Kelsey Grammer’s lovably pompous psychiatrist who original relocated from Boston to his native Seattle after Cheers ended. In the original series, Dr. Frasier Crane reinvents himself as a local celebrity, hosting a radio psychiatry show alongside his producer, Roz Doyle. By the end of Frasier’s 11 seasons, Roz was happily raising her daughter and had been promoted to KACL's station manager, but her future in radio is uncertain.
So much time has ed since the acclaimed original that the Frasier reboot faces considerable risks. Although Kelsey Grammer has repeatedly expressed his desire for the rest of the cast to return, nobody else has currently signed on, perhaps because some characters would be harder to incorporate into the reboot’s new setting. However, Roz isn’t tied to Seattle quite like the others, and her professional relationship with Frasier would make her the best returning character to him in his present-day career.
Frasier’s immediate family pose significant problems for the reboot. John Mahoney has ed away, meaning Martin Crane’s death must be addressed. returning character for the Frasier reboot, perhaps with Frasier Crane reaching out to form another partnership.
It's no secret Frasier reveled in his celebrity status, and the series finale saw him sorely tempted to take a TV job in San Francisco. It’s possible he would pursue a television career in the Frasier reboot, or perhaps even host a podcast. Either opportunity presents a natural place for Roz. KACL might not be the same after 18 years, and Roz could easily have moved into another media role that’s more in demand than radio. Frasier might hope the pair working together again could revitalize his career. Roz also has experience in moving across the country for her career, being a native of Wisconsin. This is yet another reason why she may be more inclined to leave Seattle than Niles and Jane Leeves' Daphne. Roz didn’t just prove herself an adept producer, she also regularly provided characters with relationship advice. It appears Frasier might be single once again, so having Roz return for the reboot could provide new insights into dating in 2022. After all, Roz Doyle was often the butt of jokes about her sex life.
Although Roz also teased Frasier and Niles about their dating woes, the reboot could address their outdated attitudes. Tackling her romantic life in the Frasier reboot could provide a more hopeful spin on remaining single - something Frasier often struggled with. Roz was very open about discussing dating with her mother, so flipping the situation with her daughter could also provide plenty of humor, particularly if contrasted with Frasier's relationship with his now-adult son, Frederick.
