Those tossed salads and scrambled eggs are calling again. Paramount+ announced today that Frasier — the Emmy-nominated revival of the Kelsey Grammer-starring sitcom — will return for its sophomore season with a two-episode premiere on September 19th. New episodes will release Thursdays on Paramount+, which also revealed the key art (below) for Frasier season 2.

Frasier's second season will see Dr. Frasier Crane (Grammer) return to his radio roots at KACL in Seattle for a reunion episode. The episode will feature previously announced guest stars stepping back into their roles from the original Frasier including Dan Butler as BS-spewing sports show host Bob "Bulldog" Briscoe, Edward Hibbert as snooty food critic Gil Chesterton, and Harriet Sansom Harris as Frasier's delightfully devilish agent, Bebe Glazer.

"Dan Butler and Edward Hibbert have made an indelible contribution to television, and I am overjoyed to welcome them back to Frasier and for the opportunity to work together once again," star and producer Grammer said when announcing the return of his former co-stars. 

Peri Gilpin, who reprised her role as Roz Doyle in the season 1 finale, will also return as a recurring guest star for season 2. Other previously announced guest stars include Patricia Heaton (Everybody Loves Raymond), Yvette Nicole Brown (Community), Rachel Bloom (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), Greer Grammer (Awkward.), and Amy Sedaris (Star Wars: The Mandalorian). James Burrows — the co-creator of Cheers and a longtime director of the original Frasier — is set to return after directing the revamp's first two episodes.

The first season saw Frasier return to Boston to reconnect with his adult son, Freddy, after Martin's death. The series also stars Jack Cutmore-Scott as Freddy, now a firefighter after dropping out of Harvard; Nicholas Lyndhurst as Alan, Frasier's old college buddy turned university professor; Toks Olagundoye as Olivia, Alan's colleague and head of the university's psychology department; Jess Salgueiro as Eve, Freddy's roommate; and Anders Keith as David, Frasier's neurotic nephew, son of Niles and Daphne.
