He speaks so eloquently and with so much sense. Massive respect to him. Loved him as Niles but love him more as David! Thanks for his work for Alzheimer's. A subject close to my heart sadly.

David is the first person for me who so clearly articulated the effects of Alzheimer's on the patient and on their loved ones.
RIP my mother, her sister, my grandfather - taken forever to recover from their suffering.
Thank you David for being Niles 👏👏👏 Superb ! 🤗🏆

David Hyde-Pierce you are a brilliant actor !!

[candice]

Love his charm and humor. Really gifted actor with musical talents too.

"What is the biggest misconceptions about you?" "Oh, that I'm George Clooney." Hahaha; that was so quick!

[maryerb]

This is a lovely interview and I enjoy them both. David is terrific and so down to earth.

[maryjane]

He allways credits the writing....so humble, such a great actor, great human.

I'l say it, there is no cure because it mostly affects those who are old. I'm my mothers caregiver and I can tell you its very hard to watch her slowly disappear and I can't stop it. Its very frustrating and heart wrenching at the same time. There is a great difference caring for a friend or stranger vs caring for your parent.

Really talented but surprisingly, for such a superficial industry that he is in, a really decent person.

I hope he never developes alzheimers :( DHP seems to be one humble guy. Great comedic actor. Just pure joy to watch him as Niles Crane. Every time he brings up Maris 😂

Kind of funny fact. He wasn't into fine dining and opera before Frasier. The one who introduced him to the fancier side of life was the late John Mahoney (Martin Crane)..

I love this guy, one of the best comedic actors of all time. Love and respect

[elainelaw]

I love this man, David. Thank you for all the laughs. ❤

I love love love David so much! I know I’m so late to this but I’ve been and always watch Frasier one of my favorite shows!! It’s freaking hilarious and David as “Niles” is genius so funny 🥰🥰🥰 I love the whole cast!

In Frasier the writers were clearly taking a page from Monty Python in that they didn't date themselves with anything specific; they kept with large timeless themes.

[jennhoff]

I totally agree with everything he said about Alzheimer's. It is a crushingly devastating disease, and so little research being done.

[bishlap]

Niles was my favorite character on "Frasier" and it's so good to see someone so down to earth and pleasant instead of the usual phony baloney celeb(s). God bless him.
Yes, I know it's spelled Bologna... poetic license invoked.

[MostafaAhmed]

his role as the suicidal congressman in Powers that be is really underrated

[shmookins]

2:41 Ah, s some of the people that worked on Frasier work on Modern Family. That makes sense. So much so that I said Modern reminds me of Frasier in that it has solid and clever writing that it reminds me of Frasier's quality. Not incidentally then that Modern is my favorite sitcom since Frasier. Frasier will always be the pinnacle for me. :)

I like is attitude about relationships. Don't Make a big deal about people being straight or gay. Too be equal, act and treat your opposite preference how you wish to be treated and don't air your personal business.

[lilidoucet]

I preferred the personality of his character Niles He was so lovable and funny.
