more like diane (brick) and carla (spaulding).

a good number of its regulars are still getting lots of work today, like Woody, Ted Danson and Kelsey Grammar.

John Ratzenberger created a character in Cliff Clavin and that character still gets work.

Wendt must have made some serious coin from the show because he never seemed desperate to work. He was incredibly accessible. I've been to a couple of events over the years where he attended as the celeb and then just hung around with the crowd for the crowd for the rest of the night long after most would have run out the door.

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

The only person who didn't really gave a great career after the show was Shelley Long. I think she had the Brady Bunch movie and not much else. Nick Colasanto didn't do much after the show, either.

He didn’t do much during the show either since he died toward the end of the 3rd season.

I have Cheers as rated Appropriately or even a little under-rated. The aging of the film is a valid observation....I can still watch it and I still think it's hilarious. I was never able to understand the appeal of Frasier....did not find it funny or entertaining at all. I know that's a minority take.

I have MANY years of experience in trying to appreciate steaming piles of dogshit.

what about Becker? now that was a great show .

No. I think it just goes directly in the ass.

It had more in common with Friends than Simpsons or Seinfeld: a well-written, character-driven sitcom. But yeah, it's fading away because it kinda burned off its second life in syndication too early and couldn't carry momentum into the streaming era. I know for a while there, channel 9 reran Cheers the way Friends and The Office are now.

Also, it was shot on film, and '80s TV film stock can start to look old. Friends, for being quintessentially '90s, still feels semi-contemporary, and The Office almost 20 years on looks like it could air today. Shelley Long-era Cheers looks old.

Frasier might end up being the more lasting show.

EDIT: 20, not 30; I fat-fingered it on my phone, sorry

when the big 3 networks were kings, believe each network played games with the color temp/color balance and lighting. abc seemed to have the sharpest picture/contrast (brightest), while nbc appeared to be in love with seppia coloring. cbs was dull, dull, dull. watch any barnaby jones episode and fall asleep within minutes.

compare a 70's cbs 'the jeffersons' episode with a 70's abc 'love boat' episode. no comparison as to which was easier on the eyes. no surprise that abc had the highest rated sitcoms during that era of obvious differences. if viewers didn't care about aesthetics, we still be buying black and white zeniths.
