I know that Wings is often a butt of many jokes, but I liked it. Not only was it a good show but it was the lead-in to NewsRadio & Frasier for a while. I actuyally started watching it when it moved to Tuesdays & John Ritter's wife joined as Helen's sister. Wings surpassed Cheers for me because it had the same good writing but it didn't have Ted Danson's "acting". The only qualm I had that Lowell wasn't in or mentioned in the finale.

I'm also glad it's coming. And like you, that's when I started watching Wings in the original run. Actually I watched NewsRadio, and since Wings came before it, I watched that too. I'm not a big fan of Cheers. I think that Cheers went for award winning comedy, while Wings just tried to make people laugh and didn't worry about winning any awards. That's what makes it so fun. I missed Lowell when he left and just wished they would have mentioned him a couple times throughout the last 2 seasons.

Yeah, but the whole show will be edited and several classic scenes
will be cut because, well, this is N@N.

I thought for a while there that they edited alot out of
the "Cosby" episode where the men all have 'babies'.

I can't wait for Wings too. One week from tomorrow! :happyface :happyface :happyface

I never understood the animosity that a lot of people seem to have towards Wings. I always thought it was just as good as Cheers, The Simpsons, and early Frasier and definitely funnier than Friends, Seinfeld, and Will & Grace. (Sorry, but I never understood the appeal of those three shows.)
