Cheers: The Crane Mutiny (1987)
Season 6, Episode 5
9/10
Frasier In Heat
29 April 2011
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of the most under-rated episodes of Season Six, in my humble opinion, as Norm and Cliff- for no reason whatsoever- dupe Frasier into believing that Rebecca is in love with him. This of course leads to Frasier ending his relationship with Lilith in order to pursue Rebecca. There's something hilarious about watching Frasier race around- panicked and confused- trying to woo Rebecca while placating Lilith.

There's a goofy subplot about Sam and Carla defacing Rebecca's picture, but I didn't find it funny in the slightest. Frasier being forced to "break up" with Rebecca while Lilith watches is hilarious, and probably the moment NBC execs started thinking about giving Kelsey Grammar his own show. And the fact that all this silliness leads up to Frasier proposing marriage makes this episode a classic.
