Kelsey Grammer tells Fox News Digital his kids will get their inheritance, saying it's his job to make sure his seven children are protected.In an interview with Fox News Digital,
Though Grammer has never publicly disclosed his salary, he inked a record-breaking $75 million deal with the Paramount Network for the last two seasons of the hit sitcom in 2001, according to Variety. Grammer was the highest paid actor in TV history at the time, taking home $1.6 million per episode.
Executive producers Joe Christalli and Chris Harris were credited as writers while"Cheers" co-creator James Burrow, who helmed the original"Frasier" pilot and many episodes of the series, was listed as the director.Though the upcoming show, which is also titled"Frasier" has been billed as a reboot of the original show, which itself was a spinoff of"Cheers," Grammer said that description was not exactly accurate.
"We are very excited about this new world that he's stepping into and this new Frasier that he's going to be carving out," Grammer added."And there will be some return visits from the legacy cast of the"Frasier" show. But it became clear that that was not going to be what we were going to do." "We're kicking it around," he said."I would love to still sing something, but it seems appropriate that maybe it would be retooled a little. You know, we haven't quite nailed that down yet. I mean, somewhere between tomorrow when we do our first reading and when it finally airs, we'll figure out what that's going to be."
Kelsey Grammer told Fox News Digital that he was not sure if he will sing the theme song for the revival as he did for the original series.continued,"He's been an inspiration to me on some level, because he no matter how hard you knock them down, he still bounces up like one of those funny clowns, you know, sort of weighted on the bottom."
He continued,"You know, it's got to be funny and relevant and connected to the human heart. If it doesn't have any real connection to the human heart, there's no point in doing it." "I'm woefully inadequate as an audience member. I really do stink at it," he said with a laugh."I have a whole bunch of children who pretty much have me watching really crazy stuff that is, you know, in their wheelhouse right now."
He continued,"My wife's family is there and there have been – some things came up the last year or so we just thought, my wife said that she wanted to be a little closer to home so I'll do what I can to facilitate that."
