Arguably America's favourite fictional psychiatrist could be returning to television.

Kelsey Grammer is reportedly interested in reprising his role as Dr. Frasier Crane in a Frasier reboot.

According to Deadline, Grammer has been fielding interest and meeting with writers to discuss new story lines and ideas to help push the narrative forward.

If a reboot does move forward, fans could expect to see major life changes for Dr. Crane.

Some of the new concepts being discussed include: adding a number of new characters and moving the backdrop of the series from Seattle, where the original show was set.

Chicago may very well be one of the cities on the list, since Frasier was seen in the series finale flying to the Windy City to pursue Charlotte.

This isn't the first time the 63-year old actor has reportedly been interested in a Frasier reboot.

"It would be neat to see what happened to him, because clearly he never had any luck in love," Grammer revealed in an interview with TV Guide last year. He went on to add that he didn't think Frasier's relationship with Laura Linney's character Charlotte would have worked out.

Grammer made his first appearance as Dr. Frasier Crane in season three of the hugely successful sitcom Cheers in 1984.

The series Frasier was created as a spin-off when Cheers ended in 1993, and also starred David Hyde Pierce, Jane Leeves, Peri Gilpin and the late John Mahoney.

It ran for 11 seasons until 2004 and won 37 Emmy Awards, including five consecutive wins for Outstanding Comedy Series. Grammer won four Emmy's during the series run.

According to Deadline, the project could move beyond exploratory stage, if the producers settle on a writer and a premise for the plot.

So far, reps for Grammer and CBS TV Studios have declined to comment.
