His career took a boost after he bagged the lead role in 'Frasier', which ran for 11 seasons, for which he whooped 37 Emmys under his belt. Earlier in 2019, when the makers of the show didn't reveal an official statement about snagging the project, Grammer himself spilt out the beans about the revival of his much-loved show to fans. People reported that the star, in an interview on 'In Depth with Graham Bensinger', that airs on Fox channel told that, he had hatched the plan of making a prequel of the show.

"We're sort of on standby a little bit. Working out a couple of possible network deals that we're circling. Frasier is sort of in a second position to that at this point. So there's still stuff going on. But a revisit to Frasier, Frasier's world is I think definitely going to come," Grammer told host Graham Bensinger. Not disclosing much about the upcoming reboot, he only told that the series will be shot in a new city and will be based on the lead character's desire to find love.
