"Cheers": All-Time Ranking (1 Viewer)

[Raider Nation]

I hate to nitpick minor things in comedy shows, but that's what I'm about to do.

Last night they aired the episode where Rebecca shot her sister in her office. Sam is standing there in shock.

But don't people usually, you know.... BLEED when they get shot six times? Really hard to overlook that one.

I am not sure you can blame it on the show as much as the censors.

But my point is, how would that possibly have fooled Sam?

 

[Raider Nation]

Harry, did you see i scratched my nose. Yes coach i saw it. Harry well i scratched it because it itched...

This one is on at the bottom of the hour.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

I can't remember the last time I saw Harry Anderson in anything.

Fred Dryer was the runner-up to Danson for the role of Sam.

I guess "Hunter" was the consolation prize.

####in hate that. Recently said the one where that jerk wants to kick Cliffs ### so he brings in his "enormous friend Louis" was going to be on but it was something else.

Sam was not very smart. Plus, when he was in major shock at having seen what he just thought he saw, I doubt his first instinct was to look for blood.

"You know....he does the same thing down at the post office!"

BTW, Louis was played by Sam Scarber.

Night Court was about it for him.

Night Court was about it for him.

He was in that sitcom "Dave's World", which was based on the life of humor columnist Dave Barry (about 5 years after Barry stopped being funny).

If the program guide is correct (and it was last night), this episode is on at the top of the hour.

Awesome. Guess I'm up for another half hour.

 

[Raider Nation]

”How am I supposed to know Leslie Uggams?!"

I think this is my favorite line from the episode.

 

[Raider Nation]

Either that or ..."Hey, Kung Fu."

 

[RBM]

Side plot of Sammy and Diane in the football pool is great too

"Can you tell what's the more dominant flower..."

 

[satch]

For some reason, one of Diane's lines from season 2 ep 12 always stuck with me. She and Sam are arguing about something and she says emphatically, "You, are a sand flea!" Something about the way she delivered that line was just perfect. Calling him a "sand flea" is so particularly non-random that it's like she seriously considered all the possible things to compare him to and sand flea was ultimately the most accurate choice. Not just any flea, a sand flea.

 

[Raider Nation]

Great episode on now. Cliff, Diane, Carla and Door Number Three go to the postman's ball.

 

[Ghost Rider]

"What did he say??"

"I can't believe it matters."

 

[Raider Nation]

"Look at meeeeeee, I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree."

[Emerson Biggens]

I was watching an episode yesterday that was about Rebecca wanting to hire an ad agency to do a jingle for a commercial. The guy they end up with, Sy something I think, is John Mahoney, Frasier's dad later on. That may be normal for shows and I've just never noticed, but I thought it was funny.

 

[Ghost Rider]

The actress who played Roz on Frasier was also in a Cheers episode that last season; she was a reporter in the one where Woody ran for city council.

No, why? Is your mom on there talking about how she should have aborted?

 

[AAABatteries]

I voted Great Show and have to say I'm a little surprised by the number saying top 10. It's possible it would fall in the top 10 if I ranked them all, I'm just surprised its that popular with so many folks.

Shelley Long became a senior-citizen about a week ago.

I didn't recognize her when she had that cameo on Modern Family as Ed O'Neill's ex wife.

I'm a cord cutter. Don't have Hallmark. Me TV is broadcasted for free over the air in my location.

Hallmark spends the last fifty days of the year showing nothing but Christmas movies. MeTv shows the show late at night in my DirecTV guide, but all I get are infomercials.

I miss the show just always being there. I miss being able to click on any episode, at any interval and knowing within a few seconds the plot and best lines.

:(

 

[Raider Nation]

It's always nice when it's on TV. Next-best thing.

I'm like that with "Taxi". I hate when something preempts it on Tuesday nights. Something about that show just puts me in a good mood.

 

[Mr. Retukes]

One of my favorite lines is from the episode where Frasier tries to prove that he has a dangerous side.

Trivia: apparently the husky guy next to the jukebox is a young Glenn Beck.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

This is a helluva series finale. Mostly just sitting around, drinking and smoking cigars. But so perfect.

Now contrast that with the series premiere.

Dark, dingy, empty bar. Terrible hairstyles. Weird sounds everywhere.

The show flips over in tonight's block.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Rebecca's "Sweet Baby" has died.

 

[RBM]

RIP Robin Colcord

"Which one of you told him to make that STUPID move"

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

I saw "Raging Bull" recently. It's always jarring to see Colasanto playing a Mafioso fight-fixer who won't give LaMotta a shot at the title. He plays it so cool and tough, completely the opposite demeanor of Coach.

 

[Evilgrin 72]

RIP Robin Colcord

"Which one of you told him to make that STUPID move"

Taking his horsey guy with the pointy one really threw him. RIP.

Meh. The computer would have crushed him if Norm's bar tab wasn't eating up all the memory.

 

[Raider Nation]

So I'm watching a "Columbo" TV movie, and look who shows up. It gets worse from there.

Hard to take him seriously in a dramatic role. He heaved a heavy sigh after EVERY line because he's out of breath.

I would put Wendt in the same category as Tony Sirico: two guys who were off-the-charts great as one character, but can't act a lick when asked to play something different.

 

[Raider Nation]

Probably my favorite Sammy scene.
