Now that I've seen all the episodes, here's my updated review:
Positives: 1. Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) is still enjoyable to watch. Besides him, Alan's character is really good, and as you continue watching, you'll start liking other main characters, though the side characters still need improvement.
2. The setting in Boston adds excitement as the Cheers cast may appear sooner or later.
Negatives: 1. Lilith's guest appearance episode was good, but in the final episode with Roz, they treated her like a small actor, not giving enough screen time, which was really sad.
2. The best thing about Cheers and the original Frasier was the romantic tension between Sam and Diane, and Niles and Daphne. In this show, they're trying to do something similar with Eve and Freddy, but it won't be that great.
3. The starting few episodes, especially the second one, are not good. It was almost unwatchable; the repeated laughter track and hooting, even when nothing is funny, were really annoying.
Despite the disappointing start, and my initial desire to skip this show after the first two episodes, I decided to give it another chance because "Cheers" is one of my all-time favorite shows, and the original "Frasier" is as well. So, having watched all the episodes, this show started improving after the fifth episode. Despite a few bad episodes and excessive laughter track usage, it still has potential and could really improve in the future. If it gets renewed for a second season, they must find better writers, increase guest appearances, and rework the entire theme and setup.
