"The Doctor Is Out" (September 30, 2003)
Three episodes into its final season, the gay subtext of Frasier comes to a climax, so to speak, when a dashing opera director played by Patrick Stewart becomes infatuated with Dr. Crane — and Frasier goes along with it about as far as a confirmed hetero can. This is our final episode of the year! We did so many episodes! Isn't it amazing what you can do when sex and socializing are completely off the table? AUGH!
Listen to our previous Frasier episodes: Frasier's Boss Is Gay (our first episode ever!) and Frasier Has a Gay Dream.
And special thanks to Matt Baume whose Culture Cruise installment about this episode pointed out the relationship between it and the dawn of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and the perception that gay men can be a heterosexual's guide to the finer side of life.
