'Frasier' Revival Makes TV History with Return of Lilith Sternin

Fans question character dynamics and anticipate return of other original series characters

The 'Frasier' revival series has made TV history by bringing back the character Lilith Sternin, played by Bebe Neuwirth, marking her appearance in three separate shows set in the same universe over nearly four decades.
Lilith's return in the seventh episode of the 'Frasier' revival was one of the most anticipated guest appearances, but some fans feel her character's reintroduction feels off compared to her last appearance in the original series.
The revival series sees Frasier Crane, played by Kelsey Grammer, back in Boston trying to reconnect with his now-adult son, Freddy, played by Jack Cutmore-Scott.
In the seventh episode, Frasier and Lilith compete to prove they are closer to their son before reconciling and sharing a quick kiss, but fans question what happened to the character Albert, played by Brent Spiner, who had a potential romantic storyline with Lilith in the original series.
Despite the return of Lilith, fans are still hoping for the return of other characters from the original series, such as Niles Crane, played by David Hyde Pierce, who turned down an offer to come back for the revival.
