Mmm, loobster.
Not Sure what is a worthwhile endeavor as a human...but making millions of people laugh has to rank up there,
One of the opening scenes a guy walks into cheers and he hasn’t been there for like 20 years. He starts noticing all the changes in the bar and after about the third one he notices a change on one of the walls.
Someone says where what wall. Guys points and says right there ….behind Norm.
Hilarious… I never forgot that opening scene. Very sad day. My generation is up to bat….the 80s were like yesterday. Yet so long ago….
I understand that he recieved a writing credit for every episode of Cheers because he wrote every opening scene joke.
Norm! Sad day.
I agree......he was the best. IIRC when asked “What’s up Mr. Peterson”? Norm said “My nipples, it’s freezing out there”. I fell outta my chair....RIP
Yes, he did.
Rest In Peace, George Wendt.
One of the great characters in TV history. My brother and I visit my cousin at Union College and he introduces us to his roommate Norm. I turn to my brother who didn’t go to college and say, “That’s not his real name. No one’s named Norm. He earned that.” Sure enough, Norm’s typical day began at 4 p.m. and you can guess the rest.
RIP, George. Thanks for all the laughs.
