Lillith and Niles - Frasier Reunion 2022 on Julia!

Julia is the new HBO Max comedy series from creator Daniel Goldfarb (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), and just like the 2009 bifurcated biopic (Julie & Julia), it's named after its subject — the great chef and TV personality Julia Child. Her life and career are certainly fascinating enough to warrant it, although it remains to be seen whether the new series can manage to qualitatively separate itself from a film that starred Meryl Streep. The TV series will get more space to tell the fascinating story of Child's TV series The French Chef, however, and that could be all kinds of fun. Paul Child was a diplomat working for the United States government in the middle part of the 20th century, and he was also Julia Child's loving husband. While working for the Office of Strategic Serviced in World War II, he met Julia McWilliams, and they married. After the war, Child worked in the United States Foreign Service, stationed in various European locales, including Paris, where Julia attended Le Cordon Bleu and got her formal training. Played in Julie & Julia by Stanley Tucci, the TV version of Paul Child is played by David Hyde Pierce , the Emmy- and Tony-winning actor best known for his role as Niles Crane on the long-running sitcom Frasier. He won four Emmys for Frasier, a Tony in 2007 for Curtains, and was nominated twice more, most recently for starring opposite Bette Midler in Hello, Dolly!. Avis DeVoto was a culinary editor and book reviewer who struck up what would become a lifelong friendship with Julia Child after Child wrote a response letter to one of DeVoto's husband Bernard's columns on the subject of kitchen knives. They were pen pals for years before becoming IRL friends, and Avis would eventually help Julia get Mastering the Art of French Cooking published. She's played by Bebe Neuwirth, another luminary of stage and screen who, like David Hyde Pierce, found her breakaway TV success playing opposite Frasier Crane). She won two Emmy Awards for playing Dr. Lilith Crane on Cheers, to supplement the pair of Tony Awards she took home for her performances in Sweet Charity and Chicago. Most recently, she spent four seasons starring on the CBS drama Madam Secretary, appeared on the HBO Max series The Flight Attendant, and was one of the many Broadway luminaries who made a cameo in tick, tick… BOOM!.
