Amazon.com:
With this third season, Frasier scored an impressive hat trick, winning its third successive Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series. You don't need too much analysis to get to the bottom of this unprecedented success. The series was a primetime oasis of wit and sophistication, with welcome forays into farce that pricked Frasier's bubble of pomposity. His priceless reactions to the assaults on his dignity are worthy of Jack Benny. Frasier (Kelsey Grammer) can be infuriating, as in 'The Focus Group,' in which he is obsessed with knowing why a lone focus group participant (guest star Tony Shalhoub) doesn't like him. But he is also endearing in his delusional view of himself as, in the words of one mocking bystander, a 'man of the people.' Frasier meets his match in new station owner Kate Costas (Oscar-winner Mercedes Ruehl). Their combative relationship turns to lust over the course of the first 10 episodes.
But the season's most pivotal story arc is the separation of Niles (David Hyde Pierce) and Maris. 'Moon Dance,' which marked Grammer's directorial debut, is a series benchmark, as a crestfallen Niles tangos with his unrequited love, Daphne (Jane Leeves), at a high society ball. Not that the Crane family still doesn't have issues to work out. Frasier cannot abide being beaten at chess by Martin (John Mahoney) in 'Chess Pains.' Frasier and Niles ill-advisedly go into joint practice in 'Shrink Rap,' and find themselves on the opposite sides of a sanity hearing in 'Crane vs. Crane.' Lilith is sorely missed, but in this season's blast-from-the-past episode, Shelley Long returns in 'The Show Where Diane Comes Back.' It is a joy to see Cheers resurrected, if only in Diane's self-absorbed new play, which Frasier agrees to back. And any episode with Frasier's amoral agent Bebe (Harriet Sansom Harris) is must-see television. Frasier's humor was character-based, rather than topical, giving it a longer shelf life. For those who lament the end of one of television's gold standard series, this boxed set will be excellent therapy. --Donald Liebenson

Rating:  - I love Dr. Frasier Crane!
I am entirely too biased, how can I review this when I am mad about Frasier's character, his wit, his intellectual humor, his abysmal luck in life and yet his persistence on living a fine life with opera, classical music, the finest wines and restaurants and tastes in furniture and all yummy material things in life. It is wonderful to own the series. What a fabulous show. They don't make that stuff anymore!
Rating: - More Great Frasier Laughs!
I am a huge Frasier fan and couldn't wait to watch my new season and it was hilarious. If you love Frasier then you can't go wrong with Season 3.
Rating: - Just What I Paid For!
I am very pleased with the service, it was shipped very quickly, and the product arrived in new condition...the package has not a single scratch, tear or even wear mark, and the discs play perfectly.
Rating: - Very funny season. I can't wait to watch Season Four!
Season Three of Frasier was terrific. I've watched season one, two and three in order and I must say I am enjoying the show more than when it was originally on. You get more out of it by watching the shows in order. Bring on the Fourth Season!!
Rating: - Frasier-The Complete Season
The point with me is I just love all the Frasier seasons. I can never get enough. I find it a thrill each time I watch.
