Filmmaker Statement

I love Frasier. And still, I think it's a little silly to reboot it. So… Inspired by projects like Our Robocop Remake, Our Footloose Remake, and other fan celebrations, I'm putting together a group of artists, illustrators, filmmakers, and more and we are going remake a full episode of Frasier... frame by frame. Frasier's first season finale asks the question, "Are you happy?" The subtext: Was it worth it to make a Cheers spinoff? Almost exactly three decades later, Our Frasier Remake is asking, "Is it worth it to reboot the show?" It's both a celebration of the original show and a challenge to the idea of endlessly remaking IP. Our Frasier Remake contains the work of 130+ collaborators. Our work has won or been nominated for BAFTA, Emmy, Grammy, and Webby Awards; on Adult Swim, Nickelodeon, Netflix, HBO, ABC, Funny or Die, Comedy Central; referenced in Senate hearings; named Vimeo Staff Picks; screened at SXSW, Sundance, Slamdance, Raindance, and more.
