Today’s generation might never understand the popularity of the 80s show named Cheers. Cheers is an American TV series that spanned over a decade with more than 11 seasons. When the show ended in 1993, it had already crossed over 275 episodes, each of 30 minutes. The show was co-produced by Charles/Burrows Prods with Paramount Network Television. The premise of the show is based inside a bar located in Manhattan called “Cheers.” It’s the meeting point of many locals when they need to relax and socialize while drinking. The show became popular for its catchphrase: Where everybody knows your name. Although the main character is Sam Malone, here we will discuss the fate of Frasier, another character and who he did end up with at the end of the show, etc.
Other characters were Carla and Diane, who were both waitresses in the show. Then there was Coach Ernie Pantuso, the second bartender, and regular visitors Cliff Clavin, Frasier Crane, and Norm Peterson. Woody Boyd would replace Coach after three seasons. There are other lead characters who come later in the show, such as Rebecca Howe and Lilith Sternin. It is shocking that the show, which went on for more than 10 years, was almost canceled after its very first season! But slowly it rose to the top, becoming a top ten rated show, and even earning the number 1 position during its 9th season. It was in NBC’s “Must See” TV Series lineup and boasts 117 nominations and 28 Primetime Emmy Awards. Cheers were subsequently followed by a spin-off Frasier with 11 episodes.
