Hallelujah for those few shows that don't try to keep us guessing all summer. Frasier takes an uncomfortable look back at the shrink's (Kelsey Grammer) early days in Seattle, at the start of his radio show and the last days before his father came to live with him. Meanwhile, Darlene Cates — What's Eating Gilbert Grape's 500-pound star — guests on Touched by an Angel, playing the sister of a talk-show host. (Incidentally, Cates was the first person to write a fan letter to the show.) Is there a resolution? ''There are no cliff-hangers with God,'' says executive producer Martha Williamson. ''You know He'll be back next year.''

(Additional reporting by Kristen Baldwin, Dan Snierson, and Bret Watson)
