Sam Malone, Frasier Crane’s old mate from Cheers, turns up in Seattle to the whooping delight of the studio audience. Sam (a luxuriantly raven-haired Ted Danson, long before his elder-statesman turn in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation) needs advice and help because he’s about to get married. But Sam is a sex addict and commitment-phobe and he is reacting very badly to the idea of wedded bliss.
There are lots of Cheers call-backs for fans of the adored sitcom (which was also, of course, Frasier’s parent) and some great deadpan acting from Kelsey Grammer when he realises he had a one-night stand with Sam’s intended bride.
