Haha.. I've gotta stop making these connections but can't resist making 1 last one.
Maris Crane from Frasier. Babe, you know how sometimes you talk about your wife but we never actually get to see/talk to her in person? I remembered you talking about her making you running around doing stuff for the ranch, waking up odd hours, pulling out trees... etc, etc, etc.
That's kinda like Nile Crane's wife in my favourite show "Fraiser". You never actually see her face on the show, all we know about her is when Niles talks about her. He would describe her using various metaphors, etc. She is apparently very rich (not sure that's the reason Niles married her or not though, but I suspect it is one of the reason since Niles is a very smart, albeit a gullible guy). From what I gather, she can be quite controlling both of Niles and EVERYONE around her, and Niles often joke about that but I think he actually enjoys 'pleasing her' by 'attending to her every demands'.
Niles as you know is a psychiatrist, very cultured, very well educated, so it begs the question why he married Maris as from all accounts she is very hard to live with ..haha.. but I guess it's kinda come off as cute on the show anyway that he's very loyal to her and running around doing everything and anything for her.
If you have watched Fraiser you would know exactly what I'm talking about, if not Maris would actually be harder than Wilson to peg down, since we never saw her face on the show, LOL.
