Cheers, Norm

[elwaclaret]

Only just heard that actor George Wendt died peacefully in his sleep yesterday. Appearing in every episode of Cheers as everyone’s favourite bar fly (and later with co-star Kelsey Grammer in Frasier) . He was clearly s popular off stage as on according to the flood of well wishes and condolences his family has received from his former co-stars. RIP

What would you say to a beer Norm?

Loved that show and he was a major reason why it felt lovely when you watched it.

I always wanted to pop in for a beer with Norm.

Was Norm the postman?

"Whats going down, Normie?"

"My blood alcohol level. Pour me a beer!"

[Bosscat]

Was Norm the postman?

No that was Cliff Clavin played by Toy Story "Mr Potatohead" John Ratzenberger

[ŽižkovClaret]

Never really watched Cheers. Correcting that tonight. Looks like it will take a while

[HahaYeah]

One of the greatest characters in one of the greatest shows ever.

Pass the nuts.

Sign of the times that cheers finished, being based in a bar, and friends started, being based in a coffee house!

I first visited Boston getting on 30 years ago. Visited the "Cheers" bar - really just the steps leading down to the entrance door - for a beer. Bought the Cheers t-shirt "where everyone knows your name." Stayed in Boston a couple more times in the years since, always call at the "Cheers" bar.

Cheers, Norm.

Logged in just to "like" that pictorial. Brilliant.

One of the best programmes ever to appear on the TV. As alluded to
earlier, I always felt comfortable and cosy watching it - somehow felt
to be part of the customers. Great, great storylines,
clever humour and above all, brilliant characters.

May look a little dated if re-run now, but I would love to be able to find out..

Thanks for the good times "Norm"

RIP

It's on Paramount+ - very good quality because it was all filmed on "film" so it looks great. I've been through it a couple of times in the last few years.

Second this. The humour hasnt dated. The performances havent dated. It really is a great show.

This then Frasier equals months of quality television.

When I watch it, it just feels like you're watching actual people. You are watching Norm. And he is funny and a nice guy.

Sad day

Cheers has been re-running for a while now on Channel 4 in the Mornings , 4 back to back episodes from about 6.30 till 8am.

Boy, are you in for a treat.

"What's going on Mr Peterson?"
"It's what's going in Mr Peterson that I care about."

[Vintage Claret]

RIP George aka Norm, a great comedy character.

"How's life treating you Norm?"
"Like it's found me in bed with it's wife'

[ŽižkovClaret]

Boy, are you in for a treat.

"What's going on Mr Peterson?"
"It's what's going in Mr Peterson that I care about."

Really benefitting from it having been filmed on proper tackle. It doesnt look as washed out as it might otherwise.

Do you want all the Norm entrances in one place? Course you do...
