Is it believable that Frasier got all those beautiful women?

"Frasier was not dating hat check girls"women do not like to date men who are less successful than they are. Remember how embarrassed Roz was when she went out with that garbage man? You could hardly see some billionaire heiress dating a janitor, could you? Face it, women are more attracted to men who are "ugly" and successful than handsome and poor.

Average joe guys being with beautiful out-of-their league women is a sitcom trope.
Curb Your Enthusiasm, The King of Queens, Seinfeld, 8 Simple Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter, According to Jim, Modern Family, and many more.
Come to think of it, "average" might be being too kind.

I don't think he was overweight, just a bit flabby but all that can be fixed with a training program to include weights.and stop eating all that crap from Europe plus North America, Central Americagive it a French name, he & Niles would devour raw eggs.
I don't think he was attractive or handsome or any of thathe did have charm and the voice of what we would think for Fabio. He was always pompous. Arrogant. Know it all. Imperious. Ostentatious. Pretentious. etc etc And he loved to talk about himself & Harvard.
What really turned me off for him is his begging for sex routine. Oh pleasegive me another chance. 'whimper' OH BOO HOO BOO HOO And when he started dating the famous & rich tall lawyer, he became a pussy.
He is the same kinda' guy as Alan Harper, only rich. -

Modern Family? I would say Phil's a good looking guy, and Claire's not out of his league at all. They're both about equal in terms of attractiveness. Unless you were talking about her father who married a woman half his agebut then he's not necessarily unattractive, just older.

Maya55555 - He didn't bag and shag all of them. He would make some lame excuse as to why they were not compatible. And then on his way.
Plus Frasier was a hypocrite. He always claimed he had sex with only those that had a future with him. We all know that's a lie.

Yeah, RaimeyD, that last one irritated me. It was obvious that the same writers did not write all the shows. The lack of continuity bugged me. Frasier would bang almost anything that moved. And then would get razzed by the others for being "celibate", and not being able to "get a date", WTF??

No, not believable.
There are some women (many?) who would go out with someone just because they are a "doctor".
But as you correctly pointed out, he was overweight, balding. Also, he worked on an AM radio station (hardly a high-prestige job). -

He could get womenhe just could not keep them.
When Cheers ended he had a beard and looked better with it. He wanted to keep it but the producers asked him to shave it because John Mahoney. The guy playing his father is only 14 years older and they needed a visible age difference. -

Yeah, I was surprised to see that John Mahoney was only in his early 50s when the show premiered. It might just be the white hair, but I thought he was actually old enough to be Frasier's dad - the character was nearly 10 years older than the actor.
The balding did make Frasier look quite a bit older though. His skin actually didn't age that much from his start on Cheers to the beginning of this show, but he looked a lot older in 1993 than 1984 because of the hair loss. -

He is ugly as hell. That was one of the largest goofups in the show. Him and niles getting all of these beautiful women was completely unbelievable. It was completely ridiculous. However maybe that was part of the humor of the show. Who knows.

I disagree. I thought that they were both cute. And I didn't think that all of the women were all that hot (not gonna name names). I guess beauty really is in the eye of the beholder
