Who is your favorite Cheers character and why? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

NORM · 12-03-2002, 04:08 PM

Mine is without question Norm. The charachter is so great and funny and i just can't get enough of his wit and humor. Not just his particular charachter on the show, but the actor himself. George Wendt is a genious and a perfect example of what every great actor should be. He has all different styles of movies such as serious drama in "Guilty by Suspicion" and then vulgar and humorous in "Welcome to Planet Earth". He will always be my all time favorite actor and he will always bring the happiness to my day when i see him on cheers.................

My favorite character is Cliff Clavin. I know a lot of fans find him annoying, but when he and Norm teamed up together it was pure comedy.

Coach · 12-03-2002, 04:25 PM

Mine's Coach. He was dependable for everyone and he had that innocent naiveity to him. He could always be counted on for a laugh and he cared about everyone else around him.

Sam Malone is my favorite character. I thought he stole the show. He had such an engaging way about him. Sexy as hell too.

Diane Chambers without a doubt! She had so much class but yet at the same time, she was willing to be "common", as she thought they were, like the rest of the people! She was funny, beautiful and she got to be with Sam! And I love Shelley so that kind of helps!

cheers freak · 12-04-2002, 05:01 PM

My favorite characters are equally Norm and Cliff. I think George Wendt and John Ratzenberger are both talented and actors and have great chemistry between them. I think they are the best duo in TV history and I dont think that either of them would have had the same impact without the other.

CheersChild4life · 12-04-2002, 07:56 PM

Carla. Carla is my favorite charectar because she has the perfect comebacks to everything.

SNLROCKS · 12-04-2002, 09:07 PM

Cheers Fanatic · 12-04-2002, 10:21 PM

Absolutely Lilith. She always makes me laugh. You gotta love her!!

MeganMullallyFan · 12-06-2002, 11:02 AM

Lilith, no doubt about it, Lilith is my favorite because I relate to her on many levels and she always makes me laugh because I understand the situations she has to deal with.

I loved Coach.

He had such pitch-perfect timing.

He was never unfunny.

Almost every line he delivered was dead-on funny.
