She didn't want to be a regular cast on Cheers in fact she had to fight with the producers to get her out the contract. But it's a shame that she was an excellent star regular on CHEERS 🍻
My favorite: "Well Seattle, we have a celebrity of sorts on the line. This is my ex-wife Lilith." "What do you mean by celebrity?" "Oh, they know you."
Comes up how Roz could have screened her but instead moved her to the top of the queue. Frasier writes on clipboard note to show through studio Glass: YOU'RE FIRED! Unfazed, Roz writes back: "I'm union." 😅
I really liked Lilith, from Cheers to Frasier....I never thought of her as 'cold' merely 'reserved'...I think she was smarter than both Crane brothers put together.
" Brian was looking for someone a little more feminine.... And he found him "..... 😆😆😆... Wow, no wonder Frasier won so many Emmy's.... It's really sad that nothing on TV even comes close to this brilliant show. Thank God for reruns....
Bebe Neuwirth's timing is always brilliant. A great actress. would love to see her on stage And when she lets her hair down( literally) she really is the most gorgeous, captivating woman. No wonder Frasier says 'oh Mama,
I saw her on the streets of NYC years ago. I want to say fall/winter 2008. I was walking from Sam Ash guitar store to Herald Square in the evening. She walked past me. Wow is she tall! Well, to me she is. I'm a 5'1 petite woman. And she's so beautiful. Her hair was out, too.
Had a girlfriend who by chance watched a few episodes of Frasier, she later told me about it remarking " I understand now why you enjoy Frasier so much. They all talk like you." "Speak like I do," I corrected her, "it's speak like I do." I did say I HAD a girlfriend.
LOL But, IMO, your correction still needs a bit of correction. That is, you should have said: "They speak as I do." "Like" can be used in a simile, to point-out shared attributes, as in "oranges are circular, like a child's ball". Whereas the use of "as" indicates a role. For example, "as your father, I'll help you as much as I can" versus "like your father, I'll help you as much as I can." It sounds to me that you were indicating that the Frasier cast speaks as you do, in terms of performing the role of an intellectual. Of course, I could be wrong, perhaps you were indicating that the Frasier cast speaks with the same accent that you have, or some other attribute that you all share. Ugh, I'm becoming a grammar nazi! On her own, grammar is already a demanding mistress. She doesn't need any help from me...
Maybe Kelsey and David could be coaxed to Co Host a Tribute Festival in Stockholm ("AER Linguistics?"😂😏). And then dub the entire Event "Grammer's Grammar Jam!"😂🤣😂😁👨🎓👩🎓👨💻👩💻🎤📺B.W.
Lillith wasn't such a bad person. You never Frasier complaining about him not having money because of alimony and child support. Lillith could have easily falsely claimed that Frasier abused her or the child like many women do. Her not having abused the system shows how much she cared for Frasier.
@@leonardo899 Really? She cheated on Frasier and abandoned him and her son to live in a bubble with a fellow scientist who turned out to be a complete loony. Little wonder that Frasier eventually packed up and left when she came crawling back when it didn't work out with her lover. Wife of the Year she certainly was not. She may not have been Lizzie Borden, but she was no Mother Teresa either. Frasier never complained about her? Maybe not to her face (if he could help it) but it's been established he HAS mentioned her on his radio show to his listeners.
"...the successful co-mingling of your genetic material..." I nearly fell off my seat laughing at that line! The writing and the acting are just superb.
I fear if they had done this it might have taken away from the comedy relationship that they had when she did feature, plus the battle of wills between Frasier and Lilith would grow tired I think...
Bebe's focus was always Broadway - she only did television because she thought it would help her move from supporting to starring roles. They did ask her if she wanted to continue and she said no, and the producers were happy because they wanted to move in a different direction, so mutual. She would have been on more if she was interested - the producers didn't want to alienate fans etc. Kind of how the business works; if they froze her out there would have been repercussions. But she got what she post wanted - a Tony award and she is still working on Broadway. Dancers who can sing and act have looong careers.
This was the best show in history. The writers and acting was superb. I still watch it and I have seen every episode 100 times. Lilith was absolutely hilarious. I could not pick one favorite because they were ALL so talented. This show got me through many dark nights and I love all of them.
Bebe Neuwirth is a comedy treasure. She also kills as Julia Child's pal in the HBO series. Great writing delivered by a cast that could truly do it justice.
I love watching actors speaking the dialogue on this show; it's like watching and hearing people savoring something unspeakably delicious from a Michelin restaurant
Skillfully performed by both actors. She was perfect at being a weirdo that wants an alien to teach her how his people love and he puts on such a "well, guess I'll have to bang my way out... Again."
How did you miss the time she said hypnosis didn't exist, Frasier gave her the trigger word, she takes off her dress-stands on a bar stool and sings "Hurray for Hollywood". Absolutely #1.
Ah yes Dr Lilith Sternin Crane. Should have definitely had more appearances on Frasier. My favorite lines of hers from this show are: "Congratulations Frasier, you've done it again. You've led another unsuspecting innocent down one of your dark dead end Freudian hallways." And the other is: "It's ironic. No sooner do I get the closet of my dreams than my husband comes out of it." Her telling Eddie to simply "go away" is pretty funny too. And he runs away immediately. And a little scary if you think about it lol.
"When I heard that Frasier had taken you in, I immediately switched to the "Weather Channel" to see if Hell had indeed FROZEN OVER!" HaHa!!!! You have to LOVE LILITH!!!!
Bebe has an uncanny sense of timing and delivery (i think coming from the theater world didnt hurt that much). That first apperance on "Fraiser" is classic, the writing shows why the show was such a success, and anytime Bebe would make an apperance...you never knew what to expect.
I figure I've watched this whole series 4 times, once in its run, once in syndication, twice streaming. Probably once more in a few years. The writing is so good
You missed the scene from later in that episode, "Room Service", when Lilith arrives at Frasier's house. I also love the exchange she has with the pale man she meets on the airplane, later in the episode in which she asks Fraser For his sperm. There are a few more scenes/moments missed, but of course you're unable to Include _everything._ 🤓 I absolutely adore Lilith's stature. She is gorgeous. And. Bebe could never help how beautifully. her dancers body permeated the character and screen. I love how much she actually _flexes_ it throughout the "Room Service" episode. My absolute favorite Lilith moment ionically doesn't even feature Bebe, herself. It's in the end of "Good Samaritan": Frasier says to Freddie: "I've got something I've gotta talk to you about. For the next couple of days, you're going to hear some rather nasty stories and some snide jokes about your old man." Freddie: *_"Mom's_** coming??"* 🤣🤣😂😅
Didn't you notice who 'the pale man' was? I loved when actors from Frasier appeared on Star Trek and vice versa. Bebe said she accepted a part in that episode of Star Trek TNG just so she could say the line, "I've always wanted to make love to an alien."
The man is Brent Spiner, who played a character named Data. Data was an android who was full of curiosity but had no emotions. He wore makeup in the show that made him look even whiter. Here's the clip I was talking about. ua-cam.com/video/gaqpS6iQJx4/v-deo.html
Niles has the best four lines in this clip, especially the volcano bit and the ice cream headache bit. Great writing and superb delivery by David Hyde Pierce.
Bebe Neuwirth was phenomenal in this role. In fact, all the actors were. Frasier remains one of my favorite shows (the one where a parrot gets stuck on Niles head is comedy gold)
Loved their dynamic together. Whether it's Frasier or Cheers, they always played well off each other. Same with her and Niles. That Thanksgiving burn always gets me!
They obviously met at Niles's and Maris's wedding, at 2:43 you can even see her making fun of Maris's wedding wows (Niles previously stated that he refuses to be cordial with Lilith because when Maris recited her wows, he positively heard snickering and when he looked back, he saw Llith shaking with suppressed laughter like a paint mixer).
Bebe Neuwirth fantastic talent - drama, comedy, singing, dancing. She had a roles in A Chorus Line, Chicago, Funny Girl, Sweet Charity, Damn Yankees, Pal Joey. Being equal to Frasier, condescending Lilith was a perfect addition to Niles, Roz, Daphne, and Martin.
I like Lillith. Bebe is hilarious in this role. At that time I watch Cheers to see how the relationship with Frasier has started and developed. It is so great and fun. I can't help, I like them together.
Bebe Neuwirth is such a good actress, I was absolutely stunned to see her as Velma Kelly in Chicago, a completely different character from stone cold Lilith.
What made Frasier so good was that you could tell the actors thoroughly enjoyed working with each other and inhabiting their respective characters. Bebe Neuwirth was a perfect example of an actor who thoroughly enjoyed playing Lilith and clearly enjoyed working with the Frasier ensemble.
Lillith. The smartest, strongest, and sexiest woman on Cheers. I see that Fraiser...much less Mr. Grammer himself...wasn't really able to figure out her character even given a further 11 years.

And to think she was supposed to just be a one-time appearance on Cheers. Bebe Neuwirth was just incredible on this.
She didn't want to be a regular cast on Cheers in fact she had to fight with the producers to get her out the contract.
But it's a shame that she was an excellent star regular on CHEERS 🍻
"I learned that if you kiss her too quick, you get an ice cream headache". Just priceless writing!!!
She's a beautiful woman
@@SamuelBlack84 I always thought so. Sexy af.
@@SamuelBlack84 She's also a dancer as well. Dancing & acting is quite a double - header.
My favorite:
"Well Seattle, we have a celebrity of sorts on the line. This is my ex-wife Lilith."
"What do you mean by celebrity?"
"Oh, they know you."
That was a classic....
I love the delivery of "Oh, they know you." 😂
That entire episode is a testament as to why Frauser was such an amazing show
They know his side of it...they don't know her...and you'd think a psych expert would recognize it, but of course that's what made it all so funny.
Comes up how Roz could have screened her but instead moved her to the top of the queue.
Frasier writes on clipboard note to show through studio Glass: YOU'RE FIRED!
Unfazed, Roz writes back: "I'm union." 😅
"My wife left me, which was painful, and then she came back, which was exruciating"
One of the best lines about Lilith.
This was always my favorite line in Fraiser, but I can’t remember the episode.

Bebe Neuwirth is just superb in this role. Plays farcical comedy with a straight face, and is a wonderful theater performer into the bargain.
And she is very beautiful. She is the total package.
She was able to balance sexiness and ugliness all at once.
She was so good for the role.
She also turned David Hyde Pierce gay. I don't know if I can forgive her for that.
@@DrCruel I missed that episode.
@@chrispnw2547 Look at the video. They were in bed together. That ought to have done it right there.

I really liked Lilith, from Cheers to Frasier....I never thought of her as 'cold' merely 'reserved'...I think she was smarter than both Crane brothers put together.
Like she was definitely the nicest of the Cheers girls Diane was a selfish snob, Rebecca was a gold-digger and Carla was just a bully

"Brian is a Seismologist at MIT."
"Oh well, that's perfect. Brian being a Seismologist and you having so many faults"

"Hell, I took half a step before I realized she was talking to the dog!" 😂
That had me rolling.

I wonder "twitch" was the better remark?😆🤓😎🖖🏻
“Her broom touches down at 11.”
“I learned if you kiss her too fast, you get an ice cream headache.”
Comedic gold! 😂😂
I always laughed when Lilith landed and caused Daphne a headache! 😂
" Brian was looking for someone a little more feminine.... And he found him "..... 😆😆😆... Wow, no wonder Frasier won so many Emmy's.... It's really sad that nothing on TV even comes close to this brilliant show. Thank God for reruns....
I finally get the closet of my dreams, and my husband comes out of it!
Fraiser’s and Ros's faces after that line are perfect.
Stan Jablonski, that little hussy!
It's karma, Lilith left Frasier for another man and her husband did the same
I'm sorry to have to do this, but the plural of "Emmy" is "Emmys." No apostrophe is needed.
The writers for this show were absolutely the best. Ever.
Hands dowmthe absolute best.
...and the deliveries!
Perfect combination of writing and acting. Same as Big Bang, doesn’t get any better
I still remember how Frasier described Maris in the pilot episode: 'she's like the sun..but without the warmth'.
I'll bet they had as good a time writing these scenes as the actors did playing them.
Bebe as Lilith always stole the scene
Bebe Neuwirth's timing is always brilliant. A great actress. would love to see her on stage And when she lets her hair down( literally) she really is the most gorgeous, captivating woman. No wonder Frasier says 'oh Mama,
Well, you saved me making a post there, because I agree with all of the above!

@@sheltr9735 so, are you two grammar Nazis married by now? (To each other) ;)
Lilith was absolutely perfect, she could take the most pointed barbs without batting an eye and always had the perfect comeback.
There is a reason why Frasier married her. :)
"I immediately flipped to the Weather Channel to see if Hell had indeed frozen over" is absolutely outstanding 😂
"Sorry your marriage ended in a shambles." "Ditto." I love Niles!! 1:21
Yes! The way David Hyde Pierce delivered that single word, with the head tilt and not breaking eye contact…he’s a brilliant actor.
The best Niles moment was when he tried to iron and turned the scene into an acrobatic genius.
Lillith wasn't such a bad person. You never Frasier complaining about him not having money because of alimony and child support.

You should have seen her earlier films. Wow!
YOU ALL LEAVE LILITH ALONE...SHE'S MINE IN MY DREAMS 😢 😭
You are not the only one, especially with her hair down indeed.

There was plenty on Cheers. It was almost done to death so there was no need for more.
No it wasn't "done to death". She was his ex-wife, you would expect to see her more.
Love the Lilith character! She always the best comebacks and does it with a straight face!
I had such a crush on her in my teen years.
Bebe Neuwirth is a gifted actress with a wide range of skills. Her singing voice is fantastic. Saw her in Chicago. What a show stopper.
I did too: what a wonderful experience!
She deserved that Tony for sure and hee and the late (great) Ann Reinkin had great chemistry
I've seen all of these a 100 times. I still laugh. Kudos to the writers. Perfect casting. Bebe Neuwirth: I most definitely would.
Did you see her in that swimsuit? Dancers body.
Me too.🤣
I don't know why but my favorite part of their scenes is always Frasier's initial scream every time she first appears. 🤣🥰

Different series, different worlds, same character.
I loved watching Lilith on Frasier.
One of the best sitcoms ever.
The best American one....
You can tell Bebe is holding back the laughter during the Ice scream headache joke.
Bebe really was a force of nature. My childhood crush on her from Cheers just grew stronger in my Frasierian adolescence
She is very beautiful and she wears best suits too.

Bebe Neuwirth is such a good actress, I was absolutely stunned to see her as Velma Kelly in Chicago, a completely different character from stone cold Lilith.
Lucky you to have seen her as Velma!! I'm working out the kinks getting back to NYC to see her in Caberet in May
She is one of my favorite all time Tv characters even with such a small part . Unforgettable. Obviously we re here still
Her (what was supposed to be a one-time) first appearance on Cheers was literally only 5 minutes long, but it left such an impression.
how she manages to keep a straight face is beyond me, Lilith would not have been Lilith without Bebe's talent
Psychiatric Pez Dispenser - best line- 😂😂
What made Frasier so good was that you could tell the actors thoroughly enjoyed working with each other and inhabiting their respective characters. Bebe Neuwirth was a perfect example of an actor who thoroughly enjoyed playing Lilith and clearly enjoyed working with the Frasier ensemble.
"I learned if you kiss her too fast you get an ice cream headache." 😂 That's the best one.
Lillith. The smartest, strongest, and sexiest woman on Cheers. I see that Fraiser...much less Mr. Grammer himself...wasn't really able to figure out her character even given a further 11 years.
They figured her out. Not giving what you watn does nto mean they "never figured her out". They figured her out perfectly for what THEY wanted.
She would have been a perfect mother for Shelden on Big Bang Theory!
OMG !!! I'm dying 🤣
I think Christine Baranski was taking notes for her character of Beverley Hofstader.
But Bebe out acted her, her performances go down smooth.
My physics teacher was EXACTLY like her, except the hairdo, and less icy, more screamy. Loved her. Weirdly.
