Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Another “Frasier” alum is about to return to the series’ new revival: Harriet Sansom Harris, who originally played Frasier Crane’s agent, Bebe Glazer, is back for a guest role in Season 2.

Joining her will be “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” star Rachel Bloom, who will play Bebe’s daughter, Phoebe Glazer. As described by the show, the “delightfully devilish Bebe Glazer, one of the show’s most iconic characters,” is “known for her dramatic flair and outrageous Machiavellian maneuvers.

Bebe will stop at nothing to get what she wants.” As for Phoebe, “having inherited her mother’s indomitable charm, Phoebe boasts a magnetic personality as well as a taste for the finer things.” Harris appeared in 11 episodes of the original “Frasier” over the course of its 11-season run, starting with the Season 1 episode “Selling Out.” She most recently earned an Emmy nom for guest starring on “Hacks” and is next in the feature “Americana” and limited series “Long Bright River.” She’s also known for roles on series like “Desperate Housewives” and “American Horror Story,” as well as films like “Licorice Pizza.” Bloom, who earned an Emmy for original music and lyrics, as well as a Golden Globe for best comedy/musical actress for “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,” has recently been seen in “Julia” and “Reboot,” as well as the Netflix films “Your Place or Mine” and “The School for Good and Evil.” Harris joins Dan Butler, Edward Hibbert and Peri Gilpin as original “Frasier” alums who have returned to appear on the revival.

Gilpin is back this season to reprise her role as Frasier’s former radio producer, Roz, as seen in the show’s original 1993-2004 run. (Gilpin also appeared on the current revival’s Season 1 finale.) Butler.
