Kelsey Grammer from "Frasier"

should allude to the Sept. 11 attacks on a future episode. The

co-creator/executive producer of the show, David Angell, was a passenger

on one of the planes that plowed into the World Trade Center.

In an

interview with today's New York Post, Grammer said,

"It's been crossing my mind lately that maybe we need to at least

address [Sept. 11] in some way, because we're a contemporary show, we're

concurrent with what's going on in our daily lives. ... To completely

ignore it might be a mistake. So it's something we will probably address

fairly soon."

But, in a separate interview, Pierce disagreed, telling

the Post, "I don't want to make too much of it, but I wouldn't

underestimate the value of our not specifically dealing with those

terrible issues. ...My feeling is that our place is to make people

laugh."
