Little known fact: George Wendt had a writing credit on every show. From the time he came through the door until reaching the stool, he would write the set-up line and then deliver the punch line. However, he never revealed the punch line until the actual, live taping. If you watch Danson, especially, you'll note he almost always has a bottle of water going to his mouth after the punch line to hide his laughing. George's sister, Martha, was a former classmate of mine and when we met George he revealed that little nugget to us. Now, you know.
I think Cheers was the first US comedy show I watched when aired here in England. It has stood the test of time, still makes me laugh. Such characters, makes you want to be sat at the bar with them!
I once tried to purposely "accidentally" get locked up in a bar. Unfortunately, the owner was cleaning the bathrooms that night and when he couldn't get the stall door opened, he looked inside and found me trying to hide. So, yes, I left.
I remember in the early 90s I was living in Vancouver and I happen to see George Wendt on the street with some of his friends. I thought it would be incredibly witty to yell out 'NOOORM'. He was not impressed. It never even occurred to me that he probably gets that every single day of his life. I felt deep shame.
@@lockandloadlikehell Hardly. There's a thousand better moments. Cliff on Jeopardy, Thanksgiving Orphans, anything from the first 2 seasons, on and on.
My favorite that didn't make the highlight reel: Norm enters. Woody: How ya doin', Mr. Peterson? Norm: Poor. Woody: Aw, what's troublin' you? Norm (pointing to the tap): I said, "POUR!"

Norm’s best line for me isn’t even here. Norm comes into Cheers and Woody says “what do you say to a cold one Mr Peterson?” Norm responds something like “How was your day, Vera?”
Coach: Come on, who needs a ride home? I've never driven straight home alone. I wouldn't know how to do it Norm Peterson : OK Coach, you can take me Coach: Thanks Norm. I owe you one Norm: Just drop me off at Kenmore Square. I can catch a cab from there to take me back here to my car
I have used "Women...you can't live with them, pass the beer nuts." and "What's going down, Mr. Peterson? My butt cheeks on that barstool" comments (in some appropriate fashion) more than any other saying. Cheers and Norm have given us so many good one liners for generations!
This one was my favorite. I still find myself reciting this and laughing. And then the episode it was in just aired on Decades TV channel when I posted this!
Brinky Brinkz Your not from Beverly the Wendts and I are take your nonsense elsewhere you are talking about and old T.V. show I’m talking about real life
@@paulsoxl7739 Norm!! I don't care where your from. I'm watching Cheers right now! Season 8, Feeble Attraction in Surround sound in the comfort of my home. I own the box set! So take your b.s. somewhere else. Send my regards to Mr. George Wendt and tell him I loved his ghost story on Celebrity Ghost Stories. Cheers Rules! Sometimes you want go were everybody knows your name...
You stayed in a resort while we slept out here in the dirt? Norm: You guys really wanna argue about this? Because the breakfast buffet stops in ten minutes. Lmao
You know many ways how the Norm of the North franchise is the worst Norm (pun partially intended) of all time???? Well, THIS Norm can save our lives with its innovative charisma!!!!
