An interesting list!

I would have also added in Married with Children and Red Dwarf to the list - though i do love Frasier!


Oh that's a classic!


Definitely, i also find it hilarious that the answer to the "which celebrity is best at BJJ" is actually Ed O'Neill - he is a legit 3rd or 4th degree BB (can't remember which) and trained in the "gracie dojo storm" era. He is apparently really good!
I've heard the same thing. I always thought that was pretty cool.

I think there are a lot of actors that train BJJ. I read Jim Carrey is a BJJ brown belt. I believe Austin Kutcher and Nick Cage are also active in it.

I also recently found out that the actor who plays Dr Mbenga in Star Trek Strange New Worlds is a 3rd Degree BB in BJJ, owns his own academy and used to make his living teaching. Apparently he is extremely good. So Ed O'Neill may now be the second best celebrity BJJ practitioner!

Excellent! I loved Frasier though i have already heard negative things about the reboot. Hope it's good though part of me wonders where they can go - by the finale they had pretty much exhausted most sensible plotlines; fingers crossed though!

Have you had a chance to see it? I have seen the three episodes that were released so far, and I find it unremarkable at best.

yeah i have watch the first three too.

I thought the first episode was patchy but that it improved a little over the next couple. I'll likely watch the season and see if it is just taking time to find it's feet.

The show does make me think how much they miss Niles as a character, his son is meant to be the 'new him' but is nowhere near as good (i think)

Agreed. The characters are lacking compared to Niles, Daphne, Roz, and Martin. There was such great chemistry between those characters and they fit so well together. I plan to stick with it for a while to see where it goes but I do hope it starts to improve.

yeah i totally agree. We also started rewatching the original Frasier series at the same time (my other half had never really watched it properly) and it is noticeable how much better it is!
