My Take
Kelsey Grammer achieved something close to impossible in television: he played Frasier Crane for more than twenty years across Cheers, Frasier, and the revival, and never let the character calcify. Four Emmys for the same role tells you the Academy kept finding new layers in his performance, which I find astonishing. Then there is the voice work, from The Simpsons to Toy Story 2, a baritone so distinctive it won its own Emmy in 2006. My take is that Grammer represents a vanishing breed: the actor as long-distance runner, committed to depth over novelty. He turned one pompous psychiatrist into cultural furniture we never want removed.
