So, I was trying to figure out how to get a list of Emmy nominations by year online (and failed miserably), but I came across an Emmy Trivia site and I thought people might be interested to know some of the records that "Cheers" holds (or held as of 2001). . .

It holds 28 Emmys--the fourth most in TV history (after Frasier, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and the Academy Awards).

It holds the record for most times nominated w/ 117 nominations.

It's tied for second for most Best Comedy Series Emmys.

That's it! In case we needed more proof that "Cheers" was a great show. . . .:wave:

Here are some little known facts about the emmys:

Kelsey Grammer is the only person ever to be nominated for playing the same character on the three different television series (Cheers, Wings, & Frasier).

Alan Alda (M*A*S*H) is the only man ever to win emmys for acting, writing, and directing.

Frasier has one five consecutive outstanding comedy series emmys.
