After an absence of almost 20 years, hit sitcom Frasier returned to our screens in 2023 courtesy of an eagerly anticipated revival from Paramount+. The reboot series aired for two seasons before its shock cancellation earlier this year.
The much-loved original series starred Kelsey Grammer as quirky psychiatrist Frasier Crane. It was created as a spin-off of the beloved NBC sitcom Cheers and aired for 11 critically acclaimed seasons between 1993 and 2004.
Naturally, the success of the cult comedy catapulted its cast to fame and fortune. But what did the stars do when the show ended, and who's worth the most money in 2025? Read on to find out.
All dollar amounts in US dollars.
Laura Linney played Charlotte Connor, a recurring character in the final season of Frasier. Charlotte was a professional matchmaker and the eventual love interest of chief protagonist Frasier. The role landed Linney an Emmy award for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series in 2004.
The actress started her career on the stage before later making her silver screen debut in the 1992 movie Lorenzo's Oil.
Before guest-starring in Frasier, she'd already appeared in a string of movies, including the sci-fi flick The Truman Show (1998) and the Christmas classic Love Actually (2003).
Post-Frasier, the critically acclaimed star went on to appear in movies such as comedy flick The Nanny Diaries (2007) and the blockbuster Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016).
Between 2010 and 2013, she starred in The Big C, with her portrayal of lead character Cathy Jamison winning her Best Actress – Television Series (Musical or Comedy) at the 2011 Golden Globe Awards.
Linney is probably best known for her role in the gripping Netflix crime drama Ozark. She starred in the series between 2017 and 2022, earning four Emmy nominations for her work as an actress and producer on the show. Most recently, Linney appeared in the Hulu drama movie Suncoast (2024). Her estimated net worth is $10 million (£7.5m).
Bebe Neuwirth played Lilith Sternin, the ex-wife of Frasier Crane. Her character initially appeared as Frasier's love interest in season four of Cheers, with the couple later marrying and having a son before eventually divorcing in the first series of Frasier.
Neuwirth landed two Emmy awards for her portrayal of Lilith in Cheers and earned an additional nod for her reprisal of the character in Frasier. She also reprised the role in the Frasier revival.
A critically acclaimed Broadway star, Neuwirth had no desire to work in television and was initially slated to appear in just one episode of Cheers. However, the show's writers convinced her to stay on, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Neuwirth later returned to her Broadway roots, most notably winning a Tony Award for her stint as leading lady Velma Kelly in Chicago in 1997.
She’s continued to grace the screen too, with roles in the likes of rom-com How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003) and the critically acclaimed Netflix movie Tick, Tick... Boom! (2021).
The multitalented star most recently starred in the drama movie Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club (2024). Her estimated total fortune is a cool $10 million (£7.5m).
Jean Smart played the recurring role of Lana Gardner, a love interest of Frasier Crane. Smart bagged two Emmy awards for Outstanding Guest Actress In A Comedy Series for her performance in the hit sitcom.
An established actress before joining the cast of Frasier, Smart had already appeared in TV shows such as The Facts of Life and Remington Steele. Meanwhile, her silver screen credits included the action flick Flashpoint (1984) and The Brady Bunch Movie (1995).
After stepping away from Frasier, Smart starred in hit movies, including the rom-com Sweet Home Alabama (2002) and the thriller The Accountant (2016).
Meanwhile, her slew of small-screen credits includes the crime drama 24 and the HBO comedy series Hacks, with the latter landing her two Emmy awards for Outstanding Lead Actress In A Comedy Series in 2021 and 2022.
Most recently, she narrated the TV miniseries Charlotte's Web, based on the beloved children's book by E.B. White. Her estimated net worth in 2025 is an impressive $12 million (£9m).
Jane Leeves played Daphne Moon, the housekeeper of Frasier Crane and love interest of his brother Niles.
The role of down-to-earth Daphne earned Leeves a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress in 1994, as well as an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series three years later.
Before landing her breakout role on Frasier in 1993, the actress appeared in other popular TV shows, including Who's the Boss?, Seinfeld, and Murder, She Wrote.
Since Frasier wrapped, Leeves has primarily worked as a voice actor. Notable vocal roles include the comedy movie Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties (2006) and the beloved Disney show Phineas and Ferb.
Leeves has also continued to appear on the small screen, with Desperate Housewives and Hot in Cleveland among her credits. She also boasted a regular role in the medical drama The Resident between 2018 and 2023.
Most recently, she had a vocal role in an episode of the Netflix sci-fi series Love, Death & Robots. Her estimated net worth is a plump $25 million (£18.7m).
Peri Gilpin played Roz Doyle, a TV producer and friend of Frasier Crane.
The actress made her debut in the TV series 21 Jump Street in 1988, and her other early credits include shows such as Flesh 'n' Blood and Wings.
Gilpin even appeared in an episode of Cheers in 1993, though in that instance she played a character called Holly Matheson.
Gilpin went on to land vocal roles in projects such as the superhero series Justice League and the animated sitcom King of the Hill.
She's also flexed her acting chops in a number of popular TV shows, including Grey's Anatomy, Modern Family, and Desperate Housewives. Most recently, Gilpin delighted fans of Frasier by appearing in the 2023 reboot.
Her estimated net worth is $25 million (£18.7m), with most of her money stemming from her Frasier days. By the time of the show's final two seasons, she was reportedly taking home $500,000 per episode. In 2025 money, that's a juicy $858,000 (£642k) per episode.
David Hyde Pierce played Niles Crane, the younger brother of Frasier. Pierce won four Emmys for his portrayal of the snobbish and highly intelligent Niles, as well as an additional seven nominations.
The actor made his debut in the 1985 flick Moving Violations. He'd also appeared in movies such as Sleepless in Seattle (1993) and Bright Lights, Big City (1988) before getting his big break on Frasier in 1993.
After Frasier, Pierce appeared in TV shows such as the critically acclaimed The Good Wife and the docudrama miniseries When We Rise.
He also landed vocal roles in a number of projects, including the Disney fantasy epic Treasure Planet (2002) and animated favourite The Simpsons, playing the brother of Kelsey Grammer's character Sideshow Bob. Most recently, he appeared in the horror flick The Exorcism (2024).
His estimated net worth is a whopping $40 million (£30m), with much of it derived from his time on Frasier. The actor was taking home an incredible $1 million per episode by the final two seasons of the series, the equivalent of around $1.7 million (£1.3m) today.
Kelsey Grammer first played the intelligent and complicated psychiatrist Frasier Crane in Cheers, before going on to land his very own spin-off show in 1993.
The actor scored four Emmy awards and two Golden Globes for his performance in Frasier over the years, along with a slew of nominations.
Before Cheers and Frasier catapulted Grammer to global fame, he'd had roles in the TV shows Ryan's Hope and Another World, as well as appearing in the made-for-TV movie Macbeth.
Frasier isn’t the only iconic character Grammer has brought to life. He's voiced the villainous Sideshow Bob in The Simpsons since 1990, and he played the dastardly Stinky Pete in 1999's Toy Story 2. Other notable credits include the X-Men franchise, the action flick The Expendables 3 (2014), and the blockbuster Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014).
The versatile actor has also worked on Broadway, starring in the likes of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and My Fair Lady. In 2016, he won a Tony Award for co-producing a Broadway adaptation of Alice Walker's 1982 novel The Color Purple.
With his impressive list of accolades, it's hardly surprising that Grammer's estimated net worth today is $80 million (£60m). Much of his fortune comes from Frasier, and he earned an incredible $1.6 million per episode in the final two seasons of the show. In today's money, that's a hefty $2.6 million (£2m). We'll say Cheers to that...
