Frasier fans, we have some very exciting news. The American sitcom that ran for 11 seasons is getting a reboot - and all of the original cast are coming back.
The show's star Kelsey Grammer said that the show was "ready to go" and all that's left to do is secure a network deal.
Speaking on In Depth with Graham Bensinger, 30 Rock actor said: "We've hatched the plan, what we think is the right way to go.
"[We're] working on a couple of possible network deals that we're sorting.
"We just have to staff it and find somebody who wants to give us money for it. You never know."
Kelsey played the lead role of Frasier Crane, a pedantic radio psychologist, from 1993 to 2004.
If true, his co-stars Jane Leeves (Daphne Moon), David Hyde Pierce (Niles Crane), Peri Gilpin (Roz Doyle), and Dan Butler (Bob 'Bulldog' Briscoe) will be returning with him.
"There has been some discussions; nothing is planned; There is nothing set in stone. In my own personal approach to what I've discussed with other people is that I wouldn't want to do it without these guys," he said about his co-stars.
Sadly John Mahoney, who played Frasier's dad in the show, passed away last year - something Kelsey said they'd need to address.
As for the plot, the actor said new episodes will focus on Frasier's relationship with his son Frederick, played by Trevor Einhorn in the original series.
Frasier followed the ups and downs of Dr. Frasier Crane, a Boston therapist, who moves to Seattle for a new start on life.
He has a radio talk show which he uses to relay advice to others, but it's often problems in his own life that need addressing, from his overbearing brothers, crazy best friend and tumultuous love life.
We can't wait to see what the reboot brings.
