Matthew Gilbert's TV-14 - memorable TV therapists

5. PRIGGISH

Drs. Frasier and Niles Crane on "Frasier," played by Kelsey Grammer (right) and David Hyde Pierce (left)

It's a tie. These brothers were a great team, a pair of neurotic therapists with sibling rivalry issues. Niles was persnickety, Frasier was stuffy, both were pretentious snobs. They were ridiculous and yet lovable amid their squabbling, like an old married couple or a pair of gay best friends. They were a classic sitcom treat, even if I wouldn't want to be treated by them.
