Yet another disruption--Apologies!


Hey!
If anyone's checking in and wondering why I've dropped the ball after a steady run through season one...I have a bad shoulder which makes typing tough. And no physio during Corona makes me a very sore man. Had I foreseen this, I'd have gotten a dictation program (and a mic--I'm a dinosaur), but I wanted to assure folks my passion for Cheers runs unabated, and this blog will return! Stay safe out there.
Much love,
Kev

Season One Ep 17 Diane's Perfect Date

Coach: Beer, Norm? Norm: That's the sudsy amber stuff, right? Most Cheers guest spots are done in one episode, but Derek McGrath made such an impression here as lovable murderer "Andy-Andy" Schroeder that they brought him back twice more in the Diane years and one last time during the nostalgia-heavy final season.

It's a gift and a curse, as Walter's basically incapable of carrying on a normal non-numerical conversation. This screwball setup lends itself beautifully to come classic Cheers banter from sitcom legend David Lloyd with his second Cheers script: Sam: B...

Farewell to Kirstie Alley and So Long to This Blog (for now, at least)

  The amazing Kirstie Alley... Hello to anyone who can find this blog through the murky mystery algorithm! The bad shoulder alluded to in the last post or two has only gotten worse so I've had to cut back on computer time and focus my writing on other areas, which means I'm calling it a day on this blog. For now at least. I like to finish what I start so this is a major bummer, but I hope you enjoy the in-depth first season coverage you can still find here. Apologies for some dead links on the videos...really wishing I'd captioned them all for some context. But I can't quit without giving props to Kirstie Alley. This blog goes on (and on) at length about Shelley Long's screwball genius and I would've heaped praise on Alley, too, had it lasted long enough. She had an impossible task joining the well-established cast of TV's top comedy, and she somehow pulled it off in style. Cheers went on to flourish for six more seasons post-Long, and no small part of that ...
