Please read my other thread 'Frasier Forum Awards - The Rules' in order to know all about the voting process.
Don't worry - I haven't forgotten the 'Best Moments' thread for Roz, but I felt like doing some different today. Even though I think these polls are gradually dying a slow death, let's try a new round of nominations. I should also apologise because its been quite a while since the last 'Forum Awards' thread.
I am going to ask everyone to nominate their Top 5 Frasier writers - who do you think was the most responsible for writing the best 'Frasier' episodes As you surely know by now the writers with the most nominations will make the eventual shortlist and contend for the ultimate award. The 5 nominees with the most votes will make the shortlist for the award, and when the final shortlist is published, you will have another chance to vote in this category.
Here are some options:
* David Angell/Peter Casey/David Lee
* Chuck Ramberg/Anne Flett-Giordano
* Christopher Lloyd
* David Lloyd
* Joe Keenan
* Rob Greenberg
* Linda Morris/Vic Raueso
* Jeffrey Richman
* Suzanne Martin
* Bob Daily
* Jon Sherman
BEST FRASIER WRITER:
1) Christopher Lloyd (High Holidays, Mixed Doubles, Shrink Rap, Perspectibves on Christmas) The second most prolific member on the writing staff could always be relied upon to deliver a clever and witty episode.
2) Joe Keenan (his gay-farces, Dad Loves Sherry, his Bebe episodes, The Two Mrs Cranes) 'Frasier' wouldn't have been the same without this grade A scriptwriter.
3) David Lloyd (Ham Radio, Maris Counsellor, Innkeepers, Martin Does It His Way) He wasn't as consistent as the first two on my list, but when he was on form, 'Frasier' was never better.
4) Chuck Ramberg/Anne Flett-Giordano (Give Him the Chair, Look Before You Leap, Daphne Hates Sherry, An Affair to Forget) Its taken me some time to appreciate this double act, but I think they wrote some absolute blinders.
5) Jeffrey Richman (Dinner Party, Voyage of the Damned, Boo) Not an obvious choice, but he wrote my favourite episode.
Feel terrible for neglecting Rob Greenberg (Three Dates, Dial M for Martin and Chess Pains) and Linda Morris/Vic Raueso (Daphne's Room, Travels with Martin)
Now please vote for your Top 5 writers, and I think you'll agree this poll is actually really difficult.. Think carefully about the writers you nominate, and let's hope your choicees make the eventual shortlist. Get voting! Thanks.
I'I'll hopefully start a new poll on Monday.
