What other show has an entire episode where two people are just trying to plan a dinner party and it's a good episode?

Frasier has so many "bottle episodes". It's my favorite type of episode and they nail it everytime. The Cafe Nervosa episode "are you happy?". Niles and Daphne during the blackout. This dinner party episode.

They are so good! It just relies almost entirely on good writing.

Yes. Amazing writing and the actors' ability to bring that writing to life in the best way.

One of my favorites is the one where Frasier is pretending to be Jewish for Faye’s mother. The different threads in the episode culminate when Faye’s mother opens the door to the powder room and sees Niles dressed as Jesus with a Christmas tree crammed in there with him.

Oh my god yes. Definitely one of my favorites too. Niles trying to teach Martin how to act Jewish? Hahahaha
