Ehh. I like Kelsey Grammer a lot and love Frasier the show and its amazing cast, but an unnecessary reboot/sequel can only work with the original writers.
I was just watching a not-particularly-celebrated episode last night (I think “When a Man Loves Two Women”) and marveled, as usual, at how the writers kept “plussing” the jokes—just when you think the joke’s over, the writers come up with an even funnier variation on it. That is good comedy writing.
And as far as I know the writers aren’t coming back. (Some who come to mind are existentialistic Suzanne Martin, farceur Joe Keenan, and the great, character-focused team of Chuck Ranberg and Anne Flett-Giordano.) Nice to see that James Burrows is directing some episodes, though.

Well, it's nice to see Kelsey Grammer get to work in something that isn't crap like Money Plane.

I will check it out, because i enjoy the character of Frasier both on Cheers and Frasier.
As far as i know the only main character from the original show that will return is Roz played by Peri Gilpin.
It's a bit disappointing that Jane Leeves and David Hyde Pierce said no to return, hopefully if the reboot get more than one season, they will change their mind and maybe return for at least one episode.
But i am a bit skeptical to this reboot/sequel, i will be very surprised if its on the same level as greatness as Cheers and Frasier was.

I hate pointless teasers. At least there's some pics.
Fraiser is better than Cheers. No contest.
I want Daphne, Niles, and Roz, but am still curious.

According to Deadline, Lilith (Bebe Neuwirth) is also returning.

I think season 1-5 of Cheers is better than Frasier, but i think Frasier is better than Cheers season 6-11

I know, but she was not a main character, at least i don't consider her a main characters as she only did one maybe two episodes easch season as a guest.

If any "Frasier" actors/characters appear, it will only be in a guest-starring capacity and not full-time.

This "Frasier" revival thing just makes me think of an athlete wanting to play sports again even though they're over the hill and past their prime. There is a nostalgia rush in watching them play again, and they can probably still play, but it's clear their best years are behind them. Kind of like Apollo Creed in Rocky IV.

The jokes in that trailer aren’t that funny. The one with the scotch is pretty terrible.

My reaction to the official trailer:
Eh, certainly doesn't look bad, but nothing that excites me either.
