I’m only 25, however, I just got into watchin Cheers for the first time, and I gotta say, I love this show! Oddly enough, I remember the final episode being advertised back in 1993 when it finished. It’s got good chemistry between the actors which makes it all the more watchable, it’s like a fine wine which gets better with age. But yeah, I just had to say I love this show. ---

One of my favorite shows of all time. ---

One little bit of trivia I remember about the show: They weren’t sure how to do the credits, since both Danson and Long were considered the lead. People read left to right and top to bottom, so Danson got lower left and long had top right. ---

_ring ring_ “Hello, you’ve reached Cheers. No one is here to take your call right now so at the beep leave a message.” _beep_ “Hi Sam, it’s Diane, I’m just calling to say I love you.” _beep_ “Hi Sam, it’s Woody. We need to order more napkins and lemons. Oh, and I have a message from Diane. I love you. Well, bye Sam.” _beep_ “Hi Sam, it’s Woody again. When I said I love you, that was Diane saying that. I don’t love you. OK, bye Sam.” _beep_ “Sam? It’s Woody again. Don’t get me wrong, I think you’re a really great guy.” _beep_ ---

Yes. Yes it was good. I’m slow to catch on to new trends. Cheers was popular for a few years before I finally decided to give it a chance. I was pleasantly surprised how funny it was. “You’re making a mockery of bell night!” I’m just starting to appreciate The Big Bang Theory now. ---

Yeah, it was a few years before I got into it too. I started losing interest when Kirstie Alley was on, but it still had its moments. My favorite episode is the one where Cliff goes blind. ---

Aw, Carla, you made her an Open Grave! This is not something that comes out of your mother’s cupboard in a can with a mermaid on it. This is _fruit de la mer_! And at thirty-five dollars a pop, I think the lad ought to give it a try! [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cheers-tv-show-appreciation/553627.md?page=2)
