Patricia Heaton reuniting with Kelsey Grammer for Frasier season 2

The sitcom legends starred together in the short-lived 2007 sitcom "Back to You."

More sitcom-legend casting news for the second season of Paramount+'s Frasier reboot has arrived.

On the heels of news that Peri Gilpin will reprise her role as Roz Doyle for Frasier season 2, Everybody Loves Raymond alum Patricia Heaton will also join in the fun.

According to Deadline, the Emmy winner will have a guest starring arc as a potential love interest for star Kelsey Grammer's titular lovelorn Lothario.

She will reportedly play "Holly who is down-to-earth, unpretentious, and openly mocking of overly-intellectual types. A Boston native who tends bar at upscale restaurants and events, Holly is extraordinarily comfortable with both who and where she is in life, a quality that the always-climbing, always-reaching Frasier finds as alien as he does attractive."

Reps for Frasier and Paramount+ did not immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly's request for confirmation.

The second season of the hit reboot, based on the original classic which ran from 1993 to 2004, is stacking the casting bench. In addition to Gilpin and Heaton, the show has also tapped Grammer's own daughter, Greer Grammer, to play Alice Doyle, Roz's all grown-up daughter.
