The Abbott Elementary star gushed over Cheers in her visit to Danson's podcast Where Everybody Knows Your Name (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkUqaMSOqGI). More than most TV comedies, Cheers “felt like a play. Everyone was very grounded,” Brunson told Danson. “I remember thinking that Diane was so grounded. I almost felt like she wasn’t acting.” As Cracked's Matt Solomon notes, that got a laugh from Danson. “I felt the same way being with her sometimes," he said. "Oof," said Solomon. "The comment flew past Brunson but it jibes with Danson’s comments to the Smartless guys (https://www.cracked.com/article_43533_ted-danson-says-it-was-sometimes-hard-to-be-in-same-room-as-shelley-long.html) on an earlier podcast." “It was hard for us sometimes to be in the room together,” he said. “We’re so different. Our styles, our approach, our everything is really different.”
