The two former co-stars, who played bartender Sam Malone and psychiatrist Frasier Crane respectively on the legendary sitcom, have appeared together on the Where Everybody Knows Your Name podcast, co-hosted by Danson and Woody Harrelson.

While reminiscing on their time together while filming the NBC show, they began to talk about their relationship off screen, causing Danson to open up about a particular regret he has.

“I feel like I got stuck a little bit with you during the Cheers years,” he told Grammer. “I have a memory of getting angry at you once.”

“Yeah, you came and told me that one day,” replied Grammer, without giving away the subject of the dispute.

“It’s stuck in both of our memories,” added Danson. “But I feel like I missed out on the last 30 years of Kelsey Grammer and I feel like it’s my bad, my doing, and I almost feel like apologising to you. I apologise to you and me that I sat back, I really do apologise.”

Grammer thanked him and wished they had been closer over the years. “My love for you has always been as easy as the day,” he added. “As easy as the sunsrise.”

Earlier this year, Grammer revealed he would like Danson, as well as fellow Cheers alumnus Shelley Long, to reprise their roles in the Frasier reboot.

The 2023 revival of the sitcom, which was a spinoff from Cheers, saw Grammer return to the Frasier Crane character as he moves back to Boston, and the second season of the new iteration of the show was released on Paramount+ last month.

Ahead of the Emmys this year, the cast of Cheers also reunited, with Danson, Grammer, Rhea Perlman and John Ratzenberger standing around a replica of the show’s famed Boston bar.

Cheers ran for 11 seasons from 1982 to 1993 and earned 28 Emmys during its run. Its final episode was one of the most-watched single television broadcasts in US history with an estimated 93 million viewers.
