Frasier 2:15

FRASIERCEPTION O_O

[taeho30610]

Daphnes brother Simon asks Daphne if shes pregnant by saying 'r u knocked up' in s7 ep23-24 something borrowed.

[infinityLTFS]

there was a good opportunity for a 12 monkeys joke of some sort at the end there, too bad the writers didn't put one in

[gowatchvideo]

Frasier is so pompous, I love the way he is in the kitchen talking about his gift lol

[featherives]

This is one of my top ten favorite episodes.

[JamesBond2777]

I feel like a geek when I laughed at the Clarence Darrow joke.

[cabbaman98]

'Knocked me up' is not an English expression, it means the same thing here as in the US.

[sockington1]

@cabbaman98 where I come from in England it means 'to wake up'

[MargotVoguey]

@cabbaman98 I'm of the same opinion, as an Englishwoman, but perhaps it USED to mean that?

[grumpytosnowwhite]

@cabbaman98 But it means only one thing here, and it means two different things in England. Or at least used to -- maybe it's an old-fashioned term?

[pinkunderbelly]

'Oh, now now Doctor Crane, it's not the most outlandish theory in the world....'

'You're right. Could have said it was a trained giraffe. Killed her by spitting the bullet at her. Thus explaining the downward trajectory....'

[TWhitaker1985]

he is such a jackass ha ha ha

[lazycheskie]

omg.. JANE LEEVES... how'd you do that?!

[TheMysteryMouse]

heaven knows, maybe Daphne grew up in a very old-fashioned household, or at least one where they used outdated expressions.

[jthibideau]

sometimes it really irks me that frasier is wrong so many times and is made a complete fool of despite the fact that its a part of the funny aspect of the show

[early60srcool]

@jthibideau I was thinking the same thing. But you're right it is part of the theme of the show and what makes it funny. The irony that this man has a PHD but is not as 'smart' as the "regular" folks! I just wish the writers had given poor Frasier a shot sometime. (no pun intended)

[birdie1355]

lol at the end daphne couldnt get up cus ahe was light headed

[inurfacez10]

one of the best episodes EVER!!!!!

[Truthiness231]

Best credit roll ever...

[Fisher1292]

Lol at the joke Marty and Daphne play on Frasier in the end credits scene :D

[eugene680]

How flexibile is Jane Leeves? The way her arm is bent around her head?

[320k]

Sherlock Holmes used the term "knock up" a few times. You'd think Frasier would be aware of the meaning, considering his knowledge of literature

[XhoowieX]

I'm from England and to knock somebody up is an expression... for making them pregnant. I do love this show but some of their English based jokes are way off :P

[kelzybub306]

@XhoowieX I don't even know what they are trying to actually mean? What's Knocking someone up meant to mean in England? (I'm English)

[ladylayla12]

@kelzybub306 When someone knocks on your door to wake you up....I think (I am English too)

[asmiththematrix]

@kelzybub306

knock somebody/something ↔ up

phrasal verb

* British English - to wake someone up by knocking on their door:

What time do you want me to knock you up in the morning? * Informal, not polite - to make a woman pregnant

[kelzybub306]

@asmiththematrix Weird never heard of it

[corpsemunger]

@XhoowieX It could be an era thing, Im 16 and from the UK and we might now use the American definition, but when this was originally filmed it may have been different?

[KingScottProductions]

I'm from N.I. and I've lived in England for 7 years but not once have I heard the expression "knocked me up" used in that way...

[surrealfeline]

See the thing is...wouldn't it seem a BIT normal for the hooker to have been writing 'HELP' in the dirt?? I mean she's being killed for crying out loud lol

Marty makes it sound like the strangest thing ever for her to do...:S Oh well.

[thepaulohmygod]

@surrealfeline but it's rather illogical to write help in the dirt, you'd be more likely to be trying to get TO help than lay there, hope you're not going to bleed out, and write help in the dirt just in case someone walking past doesn't realise you're laying on the ground with a gunshot wound and thinks you're just chillin'.

[jacksawild]

The murder case is very similar to the Sherlock Holmes story "A study in scarlet." Frasier should have seen it, the clue is in the writing on the ground.

[XxVailetxX]

Daphne's a contortionist!

[ed88888]

Wow...not even the audience laughed at Frasier's joke...

Such embarrassment...

[MrMallman]

Frasier . . Quit monkeying around . . . . :) Marty's old co-workers sure got a kick out of it . . . .

[RH98]

God... does anyone else think that Daphne is fucking gorgeous? Or it it just me?... (I mean mainly in the first couple of seasons. She never looked as good to me after they changed her hair and stuff)

[robblindsay]

@RH98

I fully agree

[raspycellist]

I always love the interplay between British and American sayings. That's good joke writing. I had heard that Frasier was really popular in England.  I know I love off the wall Brit coms as well. Their sense of humor is really great, but much different than ours.

[joevictor53]

@raspycellist It is popular in the UK. Though oddly it's not as popular as other shows like Friends. I guess it's because Friends is shown at least 8 times a day on one channels and Frasier's only shown about once every weekday when people are at school or work

[Dormyr]

@joevictor53 Yeah, Frasier's shown 2 episodes about 11:00ish last time I checked. Friends is on almost every time I've randomly turned on the TV. If not that then Scrubs or QI lol.

[Dormyr]

@raspycellist I know a few people that think it's great. I don't intend to sound pompous or snobby, but I know a lot of people that don't 'get it' usually I find it's intellectuals that go for the program, in the UK at least. I don't think it's too far fetched to say that.

[SoldOutnPure]

is that gun loaded?

[asgardlegacy]

I thinl longhairfain knew what it meant :)

Daphne didn't though.

[longhairfan]

LOL Daphne "Not since he knocked me up this morning...." She have no clue what the expression means in America.

[cazia9]

@longhairfan

if a woman says a guy 'knocked her up', it means he got her pregnant

[KeinPCvorallem]

I LOVE EDDIE!!

[herodotus53]

Well, I thought the Clarence Darrow joke was pretty great. Don't let the haters getcha down, Frasier!

[leoamar4385896]

does anyone else have to pause the episode before frasier tells his wacky story?

[LADYDEACON]

@leoamar4385896 jjajajaja (hispanc laugh) i just felt so embaressed for frasier! i felt so bad for him! sorry for my english i'm mexican...

[ChallengeYoung]

what was the motive??

[JamesBond2777]

Frasier's epiphany! LMAO

[aaron9099]

The last scene was the funniest thing ive ever seen.

[Arthur5041975]

Marty's cop friends seem like a cool bunch.

[blogheads]

THE ENDING IS FAB!!!!!!!!!!!

[brainwavezzz]

Is that gun loaded? :-)

[jazmella]

"I haven't seen him since he knocked me up early this morning."

Hahaha!

[gxd4b1]

@jazmella Errr ...... probably funny to Americans. To the British (and Australians and basically anyone from a Commonwealth country) its not funny at all.

Want to know why? Because 'knocked up' means EXACTLY the same in England as it does in America. So basically the writers just completely made up a situation in order to try and be funny.

Im amazed that the English actress just went along with it when she must have known it was a blatant lie.

[joshball2000]

@gxd4b1

Ha ha, settle down mate. I think that is why the joke is just that much funnier for audiences from Britain, or other countries that speak similarly. Kind of like how I will sometimes make up random stuff and my American friends will believe it because they think all Aussies are crazy like Steve Irwin.

[gxd4b1]

@jazmella How is it funny when the english saying of 'knock me up' is exactly the same as the Americans. The only place that it means 'woke me up' is in the writers heads. Certainly none of them have ever been to England if they think thats what it means over here. Therefore its not funny at all, because they simply made up a complete situation in order to create a joke that isnt there.

[jazmella]

@gxd4b1 Wow, talk about going on a verbal rampage over a JOKE, eh? Lighten up darling, you'll live longer and have less wrinkles. :-)

[MKShaggy1985]

@gxd4b1

Except it isn't.

You might want to look at phrases.org.uk/bulletin_board/­23/messages/595.html

[ilikehorses95]

Love the ending

[RJL738]

'You killed her", Lol

[mooey13]

I get so embarrassed for Frasier lol.

[frickadele]

7:20

The writers... don't want you to expect actors.... impersonating dumb cops...to know about the monkey trial.

I guess...you can't expect a real cop...to know about the monkey trial either.

Art imitating life.

[AndreSiraSebastian]

you mean Scopes vs. The State of Tennessee?

[bananna858]

*haha* the ending....they won't let poor frasier live it down...*

[jem543]

I'm from Manchester and have heard the expression knock me up before. What I've never heard is an umbrella being called a bumbershoot (from a previous episode) Anyone from the UK heard this used before?

[JuliaJolie0]

I'm from Portsmouth and I've only ever seen it used in an Archie comic (which my family would send over, you couldn't get them in the UK). I know it's an old word but I didn't think it was an English word. I've used it before though, just because it sounds funny.

[Erdles]

@jem543

It's a term that was curiously whimsical & archaic in the 70s... it's definitely been out of popular usage for some time now.

[acrobaticaromatic]

haha the scopes monkey trial... the defendant was whipsawed by darrow and ended up testifying, under oath, that a whale was not a mammal and therefore, neither was he.

[threecardmontegirl]

I'm English and I've NEVER used that expression to mean woke me up! lol

[Dormyr]

@threecardmontegirl No, I haven't either :) I live in Manchester now and people say simply 'knock on' meaning; I'll go and 'knock on' their door to see if they're in, but that's not really a slang term for being up the duff now is it? hehe

[rpaulmars]

Knocked me up. Something else, but you'd be awake for it . . . funny

[haristeas22]

"What do you think the monkey s motive was?"LOL.I laughed so hard my throat hurts.Thank you for the uploads

[Joshy8632]

"Is that gun loaded?"

Best line.

[lycana911]

Best ending ever!

[4everCharmed]

poor frasier...i had a blast though xD

[kkigirl]

i've heard that it's better not to rate them at all to avoid attention. that being said, thanks so much for the uploads.

[OperaGypsy]

LOL Poor Frasier. I loved his theory!

[BermaFreedomFighters]

I do not know if rating them low throws off the admins of u-tube, but its worth a try if it means keeping these on here

[queenredspecial]

Please rate these low... So they don't attract attention to Jos' channel! We want to keep it forever! :-D

[abhitron]

If that's the case, then Jos should be disabling his rating system on his vids.
