Is Cheers an unknown show?

I mean seriously, like it's the type of thing where you mention it and people "Oh yea greatest show" or the go "what?".......

I think we deserved at least ONE spot on the 200 greatest icons......lol Oprah got #1 for God sake....


Like........what makes a Cheers fan...?

The 200 greatest pop icons thing was a farce. I mean come on, the cast of Friends was ahead of the Beatles. VH1 doesn't have a clue about music or pop icons.

i agree, i think the friends cast shouldve not even been on the list and the cheers cast shouldve replaced them

Believe me guys, I'm a big Cheers fan, but even I have to admit that Friends should be on that list even if Cheers isn't. Friends spawned several knockoff shows on rival networks, it started a fashion trend with a haircut that was called the Rachel and even that stupid theme song became a hit on the radio.

Believe me, I'm not a fan of Friends. I just think it did have an impact on pop culture that I don't think Cheers did.

Which is a shame, because I bet you there would be more peace in the world if Everybody had a bar where everybody knew their name;)

Now that I think about it though...our characters are pretty unique.... I mean ok most of the promiscuous male characters are more like the "Fonz" than Sam. The idea of having a Sam type around isn't original, because almost every show has one, but Sam is a very unique and ironically complex character. Plus, and not a lot of shows have this, he's a main character (yes it's an ensemble, but Ted was a primary actor).

I have never seen a character like Diane chambers.....

Carla, and Sophia (Golden Girls) are VERY alike...only Carla is a bit meaner....

Coach........yea i've seen characters like him...like that guy from the show "coach" ..but he was pretty original

Rebecca.......i've never seen a complete Rebecca character (like i've seen neurotic characters...and then really shallow characters...but i don't think they had Rebecca's combination)

Cliff...never seen a character like cliff

Norm....never seen a character like Norm

Fraiser........not really...none that I can think of at the moment

Woody.....um........I don't know if I have seen quite a character like him.

lol im confused, are you saying that coach's character inspired dauber from the show 'coach' or coach copied his character from dauber?

I would say Woody is more like Dauber

And Coach is a lot like Luther

I think Dauber and Lowell were inspired by Woody. Luther, probably Coach. Brian (Wings) is like Sam IMO also.
