Damn.

 

[MileHigh]

That sucks.

 

[Michael_ Gee]

Dreadful news.

 

[DanielSimpsonDay]

Take off that Milk-Bone underwear and rest easy.

Looks like we have dueling threads if a Mod wants to nuke mine...

Norm is as iconic as it got for American TV.

Fat Sam was an excellent little side character in Fletch.

I'll have a screaming viking in his honor.

Cheers ended 32 years ago today.

 

[BitterYoungMatador2]

Of all of the reboot shows that that have been made recently, I always thought Cheers would have worked because, until recently, most of the core cast was still alive.

One bit that never got old.

"What's going on, Mr. Peterson?"
"The question is what's going in Mr. Peterson? A beer please, Woody."

RIP George Wendt.

All I can think of is all the cartoons with the crowd yelling "Norm" from the other side of the pearly gates.

RIP.

What's shakin' Norm? All four cheeks and a couple of chins.

Rough one. RIP to an actor who created an iconic character.

One of those actors and roles that seemed so perfect for each other, it's almost like he was just a regular guy who walked in while they were filming. RIP.

When someone born after Cheers ended writes an obit. The fact that he's Sudeikis' uncle is an interesting side piece, but not major to his accomplishments.

Twenty years ago, we had a great cat we named Norm. Playful, solid lap cat, would chase wadded paper and retrieve it, came to us when we stepped in the house and hollered, "Norm!"
