Nick at Nite Celebrates Cheers 20th Anniversary--Sept 30

[Cheerschick47]

i know where u live

lol

[Dulcineah1]

54 is almost as old as my dad...but Ted 20 years ago was totally hot, and I would have dated him, except I was an infant, so that doesn't really work. *sigh*

Dulcey, who's emerging from lurkdom just before she moves yet again

[BrassyBebeBabe]

Dulc, I absolutely love your reasoning. LOL Besides, I think Ted is still handsome, or maybe it is just the fact that I know what he used to look like, and I can't acknowledge that he now has gray hair and wrinkles. LOL

[Cheerschick47]

OMG he doesnt have wrinkles! u ppl r blinde

[Samsgirl xo]

yes, he does have wrinkles. its ok. he was totally worth indulging into him during the 80's.. but then he got really old. and kinda gray. wel lcompletely gray and very bald. LOL, we still love him. but he seems like hes lost so much excitement in his interviews, he'll talk and just sound like hes rambling.. its like hey ted, want some caffeene? please?

[Samsgirl xo]

I know he's still handsome I just said he was sort of old.He does have some wrinkles.

[Dr. Lilith Sternin]

The only one who really aged well was Kelsey Grammer. (I'm not saying Bebe because she's still young!!! *gasp* And no one better say otherwise!)

I think Kelsey's far more handsome now than his Cheers years with his little mullet cut. I honestly think he's very handsome now. I don't find Ted attractive at all... sorry guys. Even then... Sam had charm, he carried himself well, but I didn't find him, "hot."

Kyle Lowder... now that's HOTT, baby! Mmmmm...

[Dulcineah1]

Ted's still handsome, but it doesn't mean I find him attractive now. I think Sean Connery has aged well and is handsome, but he's old enough to be my grandfather, so that kills the attraction right there.

I agree about Kelsey having aged well. And I absolutely love his voice.

[CheersGang3]

I'm so happy i'm glad they're doing a reuion it's great

[flutterby01]

I'll definitely be watching on September 30th! Heck, maybe I'll even start taping the episodes since I am a newer viewer!

JOEY: Hey, check it out! Some girl ate Monica!
MONICA: Shut up! The camera adds 10 pounds!
CHANDLER: So, how many cameras are actually on you?

However, they are shocked when the beautiful blonde presents the award - a writing prize for a screenplay - to Sam's old flame Diane Chambers. His feelings for his old love momentarily rekindled, Sam telephones Diane in California and leaves her a message congratulating her on her achievement. Not surprisingly, Diane returns Sam's phone call and the two are soon catching up on each other's lives. Diane tells Sam that she is happily married to a man named Reed and has children. Sam, not wanting to look like a loser, says the same. He then makes the fatal mistake of inviting Diane to visit him and Cheers sometime soon. To nobody's surprise but Sam's, she takes him up on the offer and soon arrives at the bar. Meanwhile, Rebecca's relationship with Don the Plumber appears to be heating up to the boiling point.

Rebecca is a mess over losing Don with her hair disheveled and constantly bursting into tears at a moment's notice, but she cleans up as best she can and joins Sam, Diane and Reed for dinner. Everything is going smoothly until Don bursts into the restaurant and declares his love for Rebecca, asking her again to marry him. She is finally able to say yes, the happy couple leaves the restaurant, and Sam is left looking like a fool. A few minutes later, Reed's gay lover arrives, furious that Reed left him for a woman. Reed explains that he is only doing his friend Diane a favor and hastily hurries out after his lover. Humiliated and embarrassed, Sam and Diane are left to face up to their lies, realizing their six years apart have been empty, and that they still have feelings for each other. Before long, they rekindle their once-passionate romance and, to the dismay of the Cheers gang, announce that they plan to get married.
5:30AM #275 “One for the Road Part III”
When Sam fills the Cheers gang in on his plan to marry Diane and leave the bar to move to California with her, his friends are understandably upset. Angry at their lack of support, he heads to the airport on a sour note to begin his "new life." However, while waiting for the plane to take off, Sam and Diane both experience severe second thoughts. When they finally find the courage to discuss their feelings, they realize that, as much as they love each other, their relationship just can't work. Sadder but a little wiser, they wish each other luck and bid each other a warm farewell. Deeply depressed, Sam returns to Cheers hoping for comfort from the gang. But the gang coldly fills him in on the fact that, contrary to what he believes, they have lives too. Rebecca has married Don, Woody has been sworn in to the City Council, Cliff and Norm have a new government job and Frasier has reconciled with Lilith. They all leave the bar, leaving Sam alone. But a moment later return to tell Sam that their coldness was a well-deserved joke. They stay at Cheers until the wee hours, smoking cigars and talking about their lives. Norm is the last to leave, and before he goes, he reminds Sam that Cheers is the one thing that he has in life that he loves the most. Sitting alone in his bar, Sam finally realizes how lucky, and happy, he truly is.
