Norm from Cheers has left for that great barstool in the sky. I hope when he walked through the gates, everyone said, "NORM!!!"
R.I.P. to George Wendt

DA BEARS!!!!
I am drinking a beer in his honor.
RIP to a very funny actor. One of my favorite exchanges from Cheers if I’ve got it right:
Woody: How’s it going Mr. Peterson?
Norm: It’s a dog eat dog world out there and I’m wearing milkbone underwear
Woody: How’s it going Mr. Peterson?
Norm: It’s a dog eat dog world out there and I’m wearing milkbone underwear
May a man after my own heart rest in peace. He will be missed.

I’ve never been a big TV guy but enjoyed Cheers. In the early-2000s when I was in college it would always come on TV Land from midnight until 1 and if I was around I’d always catch it.

I never watched an episode of Cheers. Maybe I missed something.
OP
There's still time. it's on Hulu and Paramount+. I highly recommend you try it.
Cheers was a very enjoyable watch. Extremely well written with a near perfect rotating cast.
80.4 million viewers tuned in for the Cheers finale.
Quite the send off.
Quite the send off.
“What’s shaking, Norm?”
“All four cheeks & a couple of chins.”
“What’s new, Normie?”
“Terrorists, Sam. They’ve taken over my stomach & they’re demanding beer.”
“What’d you like, Normie?”
“A reason to live. Give me another beer.”
“What’ll you have, Normie?”
Well, I’m in a gambling mood Sammy. I’ll take a glass of whatever comes out of the tap.”
“Looks like beer, Norm.”
“Call me Mister Lucky.”
“Hey Norm, how’s the world been treating you?”
“Like a baby treats a diaper.”
“What’s the story, Mr. Peterson?”
“The Bobsey Twins go to the brewery. Let’s cut to the happy ending.”
“What’s going on, Mr. Peterson?”
“A flashing sign in my gut that says, ‘Insert beer here.’”
“Whatcha up to, Norm?”
“My ideal weight if I were eleven feet tall.”
“How’s it going, Mr. Peterson?”
“Poor.”
“I’m sorry to hear that.”
“No, I mean pour.”
“Women..... Can’t live with ‘em.... pass the beer nuts.”
“What’s going down, Normie?”
“My butt cheeks on that bar stool.”
“Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?”
“Alright, but stop me at one....make that one-thirty.”
“How’s it going, Mr. Peterson?”
It’s a dog eat dog world, Woody & I’m wearing Milk Bone underwear.”
“What’s the story, Norm?”
“Boy meets beer. Boy drinks beer. Boy meets another beer.”
“Can I pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?”
“A little early, isn’t it, Woody?”
“For a beer?”
“No, for stupid questions.”
“Hey Norm, how’s life in the fast lane?”
“Don’t know, can’t find the on-ramp.”
[Frasier, Sam, Cliff and Norm are stranded out in the desert. Norm is missing]
Cliff: You don't suppose some wolf dragged him off in the night, do you?
Sam: Maybe we ought to take a look for him.
Frasier: Not me. I don't want to meet the wolf that could drag off Norm.

My only encounter with Mr. Wendt was in Chicago, at the House of Blues for a charity concert.
He stepped on my foot in a stairwell, and almost went tumbling. He was not a small man, and it did hurt.
He apologized, sweatily, and beelined for the bar as one would expect.
RIP sir.
