Fans of the hit show, Frasier, that dominated the small screen from 1993-2004, will remember Dan Butler as the rabidly heterosexual radio personality Bob ‘Bulldog’ Briscoe, who teased colleagues and chased after anything in a skirt with energetic glee.
Butler’s shaping of the character, infusing him with characteristics he gleaned from his father, led to a successful stint as a recurring character on the award-winning series. It is a great testament to Dan’s acting abilities that an out and proud gay man could play so indelibly straight.
