Kelsey Grammer has ruled out the possibility of a Frasier movie.
The actor, whose new sitcom Back To You was cancelled earlier this year, says he does not want the show to follow in the footsteps of The X Files and Sex And The City.
"I hope not - it's just bound to be a failure," he said. "I like them on television. I even like Sex And The City on television. I know it had great success.
"But stylistically, the way it's shot, you could kind of buy that it could be a film. It wasn't such a transition in terms of what the actual camera work was, so it was okay."
Grammer said style of Frasier - a three-camera setup with a studio audience - would be difficult to adapt effectively to a movie.
"Frasier is rooted in the camera tradition that involves an audience participating. You have to allow that to happen for sitcom for work. And I wouldn't want to see that in film. I think it would be silly and tortured with self-awareness and foolishness."
