Why he might be annoying:

    He said 'I don't like showing imperfections in real life, so acting's a way to do that.'
    Every major award he's won is due to 'Fraiser' (one trick pony).
    He holds the record for being nominated for Best Supporting Actor Emmy.
    He gives a short appearance (he is 5'10).
    He goes by the pretentious three names.

Why he might not be annoying:

    The role of Dr. Niles Crane was created especially for him due to his physical resemblance of Kelsey Grammer.
    He plays piano and the organ.
    He is active in the fight to cure Alzheimer's (his grandfather suffered from the disease).
    He attended Yale with Jodie Foster, which helped him land a part in 'Little Man Tate.'
