S01 E10: Bulldog forcibly kisses Roz on screen and it is played off as a joke.
S02 E01: It is revealed that while underage, Frasier had sex with a teacher. I found forced kisses and similar assault pretty common on this show and played for laughs. This list is not complete - I burned out on this show around seasons 3 and 4

No, however a tribute to the series creator/showrunner and his wife, who were killed onboard American Airlines Flight 11, appears during the credits of the season 9 premiere (it doesn't mention how they died.) Also, by an eerie coincidence, in the season 4 finale, a character is mentioned as arriving on American Airlines Flight 11.

"Rooms with a view" is about characters remembering times they were in a hospital while one of the main characters undergoes emergency heart surgery. It is treated very seriously, though he makes a complete recovery.

No, but Frasier's ex-wife and son are Jewish, so there is some gentle making light of the religion and Frasier's naivety surrounding it.

Very soft yes on this one. Although the show is very anti-ableist, there are scenes where Frasier struggles to be politically correct (for the time period) and usually ends up accidentally being ableist.
