Fans are upset about Frasier's supposedly best episode ever.

The episode of Frasier that has been hailed as the 'best' has been revealed, and fans are feeling a bit wounded. While many agree that the selected installment is fantastic, there are some who argue that another episode should have been chosen instead. As we eagerly await the second season of the Paramount + reboot, viewers have been stirred up by Rolling Stone's list of the top 100 TV episodes of all time, which includes a hilarious adventure for Frasier and his crew.

The writers praised the season five episode titled "Ski Lodge" for its clever wordplay, Frasier's misplaced confidence, and a stellar final five minutes that perfectly showcase the show's brilliance. This particular episode, which first aired in 1998, follows Frasier, Niles, and Martin as they embark on a luxurious trip to a cottage in the mountains. However, things quickly spiral into chaos when they are joined by Daphne, her friend Annie, and a French ski instructor named Guy. While "Ski Lodge" has become an instant classic, some fans were disappointed that the season one finale, "My Coffee With Niles," was not chosen instead.

"My Coffee With Niles" is one of the few episodes in the entire series that takes place in real time, and it has been hailed as the perfect installment. In this episode, Frasier and his brother Niles head to a steamy weekend in the mountains and reflect on their first year in Seattle while at their favorite café. They dive into deep and meaningful conversations about happiness and what it means to truly be satisfied. Some fans took to Reddit to express their disappointment with "Ski Lodge" being chosen over "My Coffee With Niles."

Joe Keenan, the script writer and executive producer of Frasier, shared that "Ski Lodge" was one of his favorite episodes to write, thanks to its use of farce. He also revealed that this episode was a turning point for Niles, as he finally gets to confess his love for Daphne – but not in the way he had hoped. Keenan explained that this was a monumental moment for Niles, as he had been building up the courage to declare his love for Daphne for a long time. However, things take a hilarious turn when another blonde walks out of the bathroom and professes her love for him instead.

Despite the controversy over which episode should have been chosen, it is clear that both "Ski Lodge" and "My Coffee With Niles" are fan favorites. They showcase the perfect balance of heart, realism, and absurdism that makes Frasier such a beloved and successful show. Fans continue to debate over which episode truly deserves the title of "best," but one thing is for sure – both are worth a rewatch.
