Frasier (1993)
TV Show
First aired
The Ski Lodge (season 5, 1998)
After two short scenes in Seattle, the rest of this Joe Keenan script stays inside a mountain ski lodge for a night of door-slamming bedroom farce. Keenan called it very mathematical, a precise chain of misunderstandings in which nearly everyone is quietly chasing someone who wants somebody else. Confinement is what makes it work: with only a hallway and a handful of bedrooms, every wrong door opened is a collision. It is the less purist choice here, since it does not start at the lodge, but nothing else on the list shows so clearly how one location can be used for farce rather than conversation.
