And, speaking of TV, yesterday was the 30th anniversary of the premier of one of my all-time favorite sitcoms, "Cheers." The date was September 30, 1982 and the series ran for 11 years. It debuted dead last in the ratings, but the network gave it a chance and it became an all-time classic. Some 40 million watched the final episode in 1993. Was it THAT LONG ago?
I was sure one of those watching it. Just turned off the lights at the end. My favorite character by far was Coach, who just lived in his own little world. That opening bit where people were humming a song and whenever they walked by someone else, they started humming it. That is, until someone walked by coach and he started humming a different song. That was Coach.
Never thought Frazer would do so well in his own show, either.
