Grammer and Paramount refused to discuss further details because the actor wants to keep his salary details secret. Paramount also is finalizing a new long-term deal for Frasier costar David Hyde Pierce, who plays Frasier's brother Niles. Grammer will surpass such actors as Jerry Seinfeld, Tim Allen and Mad About You stars Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt, who earned salaries of more than $1 million in the final seasons of their series.
