Quote from Niles in Mary Christmas
Niles: What is it with you and this parade? Frasier: Oh, Niles, don't you remember when we were kids? We'd sit on the couch and cradle our cocoas and stay up late to watch our holiday hosts, Bob Vernon and Sergeant Michelle, the... Both: ...traffic lady! Niles: Oh, I haven't thought about them in years. Frasier: You know, to me, that was always the official beginning of Christmas. And now this is my chance to usher in the season for a whole new generation. Niles: I loved Sergeant Michelle. To this day, every time I cross against the light, I feel like I'm letting her down.
