(Beginning of Frasier) Frasier: you know dad, back when I was in Boston I met this jingle writer who look an awful lot like you Martin: not all old people look a like Frasier Frasier: dad that's not what I meant... Martin: thought I can see how you'd mistake me for some random stranger seeing how you haven't visited in the past 8 years Frasier: never mind then...
Odd story about this. It was cast with Norman Fell but he was getting old and got cold feet at the last minute, so Mahoney was parachuted in to save the day. That turned into the gig of his life. You can see how it was written for Fell. Mahoney really hit it out of the park though and Kirstie helped him do it.
this scene reminds me of the scene from Frasier where Martin is trying to sing that Christmas carol and can't hit the hight note... damn that's the funniest scene ever
or better, if he didn't pause between "game" and C and sang them in the same note, he could have said "beer and pretzels that's our game, C-H-E-E-R-S" with "H-E-E-R-S" being sung to the tune of "EIEIO"
R.I.P. John Mahoney (1940-2018)
Frasier is off-camera thinking, "Dear God, this idiot looks, sounds, and ACTS like my father! I need a beer...."

first episode of Fraiser?
"You want something that bores a hole through the public's little pea brain."
That's the secret of all advertising.
The look on his face when he finds out Cheers has 2 Es is fantastic.
From the same mind that gave us "She's such a GROOVY lady"...!
Who would have guessed Frasier's dad could jam

@@NormAppleton I haven't heard that!!! :)
The ending is the best----she runs out after him up the stairs...
0:14 THE RARELY SEEN 4TH WALL
Michael DeRosa I also saw it on an episode of "St. Elsewhere".
@@bigbubba29 oh yes, that was a most odd crossover show.
That jingle has lived in my head rent free since this episode aired! 😅
Fred's Tune-Up
Tune-Ups Tune-Ups That's our game, F-R-E-D-S.
1413 Burlingame, F-R-E-D-S.
Thanks for putting this clip on. This is a monumental scene that bring us the most loved Frasier's Martin Crane into our life.
I heard about him earlier. That’s why I came here. God rest John Mahoney.
This song honestly gets stuck in my head all the time. C-H-E-R-S
Marty Crane only knows Old MacDonald had a farm. LOL.
And Mary Had a Little Lamb.
this scene reminds me of the scene from Frasier where Martin is trying to sing that Christmas carol and can't hit the hight note... damn that's the funniest scene ever
The jingle would have worked if two "E"s were said in quick succession;
C-H-EE-R-S.
or better, if he didn't pause between "game" and C and sang them in the same note, he could have said "beer and pretzels that's our game, C-H-E-E-R-S" with "H-E-E-R-S" being sung to the tune of "EIEIO"
🎵Beer and pretzels, that's our game, C-H-E-R-S!🎵😂🤣😂🤣
They don't produce good sitcoms like this any more!
Where's Charlie Harper when you need him?
Oh, yah, Young Guns.
Martin?!
When norm and Marty meet years later I wonder if norm wonders”damn frasier’s dad sure reminds me of that songwriter who came into cheers years ago.
Hey it's Marty! He is undercover for work, trying to get a bad guy! Frasier isn't very happy seeing him. :) 😁
R.I.P. John Mahoney
Nice! I see Leland Orser at the end of the clip too, love that guy!
We still miss those Marty parties on Frasier
Aside from Coach and Woody's antics, this is one of THE funniest scenes in Chers.
That jingle really puts a smile on my face.
I did not know that Jon did a Cameo in Cheers
Weird to see him walking without a cane
What's a matter, babe? Can't work with a man you're attracted to?
L Kast Oh God, OUT!
RIP
Plot twist. Frasier hired his dad to pose as the composer 🤣
Oh that would have been epic!
THIS WOULD BE FUNNIER IF THERE WAS A WHOLE EPISODEEEEEEEE ! !
These pretzels are making me thirsty.
LMAO
Kirsty alley wad good looking
Five years before she was mega hot.
The longer version is better: ruclips.net/video/Ffl_8KMwrtw/видео.html
lol
Cher owns a bar!
And it has beer and pretzels!
Hmm Sy Flembeck is Fraziers father?
Who is the wrestler on the wall?
this is cool
Check out that young Leland Orser!
He changed the tune from Old MacDonald to London Bridge.
No, he didn't. Listen again.
Actually, it was Mary Had A Little Lamb.
😿💔good times and im only 24
I like the scene after this where Either Norm or Cliff is like “he can’t even spell Cheers right” lol
nope..Sy Flembeck
He left out one of the "E"s, CHERS is not a word!
Scott Hayes omg you cracked the case!
Maybe so, but you never asked for Cher's opinion lol
