Kelsey Grammer has finally revealed why he and Cheers co-star Ted Danson had a 30 year feud just months after they started the healing process on a podcast.

Grammer, 69, appeared on Danson’s, 77, podcast Everybody Knows Your Name, which he co-hosts with Woody Harrelson, back in October where they talked over their issues.

Danson had not divulged specifics on what started the argument between them but did apologize to Grammer on the podcast and now the latter has finally revealed what started the rift.

Grammer recently told the New York Post: ‘It got a little blown out of proportion. There really wasn’t an argument. 

‘It was at a time in my life when I was actually going through a lot of self-doubt, self-loathing, honestly.’

The star got candid about the issues he was dealing at the time which seemed at the center of why the two sitcom stars weren’t seeing eye to eye.

Grammer explained: ‘It was when I was drinking a lot. Ted had just come up and said, “You know, I’m kind of mad at you that sometimes you don’t show up ready to go.” And I said, “Okay, I respect that.” And that actually was sort of it.’

‘Now maybe what happened for Ted was, he stepped away from what might have been a better friendship … maybe he had to protect himself. I’ve always thought if him — it’s the most loving kind of remembrance and fondness. Same with Woody. Woods and I have actually stayed in touch a bit more than Ted and I have. That’s still an active sort of friendship — we were emailing just last week. We’re still around.’

The two had previously talked about their 30 year feud on the podcast which was released on October 2024. 

‘This isn’t self-deprecating, but I wish — I feel like I got stuck a little bit with you during the Cheers years. I have a memory of getting angry at you once,’ Danson said.

‘Yeah, you came and told me that one day,’ Grammer replied, as Danson added, ‘And it’s stuck in both of our memories.’

‘But I feel like, f**k, I don’t know. I missed out on the last 30 years of Kelsey Grammer, and I feel like it’s my bad, my doing,’ Danson added.

‘I almost feel like apologizing to you… no I don’t feel like, I apologize to you and me that I sat back, you know, and didn’t. I really do apologize,’ he said.

Grammer thanked him for that and said, ‘I truly wish we’d spent some more time together,’ before sharing an anecdote Danson told him that has always, ‘quoted to other people.’

‘When I turned 40, you came up and said, “You know what it means, don’t you? Now that you’re 40, it means you’re finally worth having a conversation with,”‘ Grammer said with a laugh.

‘I thought that was f***ing brilliant. I always loved that. And I thought about it, and I’ve repeated it. My love for you has always been as easy as the day. You know, as easy as the sunrise,’ as Danson replied, ‘Mine too.’

Danson was one of the original cast members of Cheers, playing former Boston Red Sox pitcher Sam Malone, who opened the тιтle bar in Beantown.

Grammer didn’t debut until the third season as psychiatrist Frasier Crane, initially only slated to appear in six episodes, but became a series regular who was a presence through the show’s 11th and final season in 1993.

They also spoke about the bond they formed with legendary TV director James Burrows, who once told them, ‘I don’t care what you crazy people do during the week, just show up on shoot night and be funny.’

Grammer added, ‘We were doing an interview together and he said, “You got to have an oar in the water.” I’d never heard him express this before, but he said, “As long as everybody’s got their oar in the water and they’re pulling, then I’m happy,”‘ 

‘I thought, “Yeah, makes a lot of sense.” And we’re still working together. I mean, he’s done, you know, he does four shows in the last bunch and it’s been great working with him,’ Grammer added of the iconic 83-year-old TV director.

They also recently reunited during one of many TV reunion segments during the Emmy Awards.
