Roz's return

Interesting to see how this will go. I have predictions. Not necessarily hopes, mind you, but predictions.

Much fuss has been made over letting Frasier find the right woman before the show ends, whenever that may be. Because it was for so long such a driving factor in the original series. I mean sure, there was plenty else going on and it was a sitcom, not a romance show, I get that, but it was always there, he went on countless dates. And he and Roz always had a slight element and a brief interlude.

Now, this new series on Paramount+. It only had ten episodes, and that's hardly enough time to establish a new romantic interest unless you do it from the beginning, but being the first season of the revival, they've been busy establishing all the other new characters. And while I have enjoyed the revival, it of course can't compare to the original run, and I wonder if it's performed well enough to warrant a second season.

So, coming back to Roz and my predictions. I think they're going to kind of use her as a safety net. After this time apart, and each having grown since the original series went off the air, maybe Frasier and Roz will see each other in a new light, and are now at places in their lives where they could be more open to pursuing each other. I don't necessarily think they'll end up together. But I bet the finale will be done in a way that if it

A) Doesn't return for another season, we can easily imagine that Frasier and Roz get together. It can't be Lilith.

or

B) Does return for another season, nothing so serious happens where they can just be "Oh yeah Roz had a nice visit and is back in Seattle now"
