Could This Show Survive Today? Ep. 4 - Cheers

[Mister B. M. Ed.]

For Episode 4, let's go to the bar where everyone knew your name.

Cheers (1982-1993, 275 episodes)

Premise: Located in Boston, a local bar had some regulars and some good staff.

Was every scene in the bar?

 

[BDP™️]

Yep.

Surprised it hasnt been “modernized” or a spin off hasnt been created

There’s copycats of this show in different variations. Even though it was a trash show, Undateable for the most part took place in a bar. How I Met your Mother had a lot of scenes in a bar. I’m sure I’m missing others.

How I met your mother was pretty good

How I met your mother was pretty good

Except for that last season. Shit pissed me off. All that buildup and the mom dies. Smh

Louis CK & Steve Buscemi did a low budget series that took place in a bar couple yrs ago.

It was almost like a play more than a show. It sucked.

Sullivan & Son was pretty much a Cheers ripoff as well.

Hell The Simpsons has interpolations of Cheer’s in Moe’s Place.

 

[Northside7]

The only good thing about the show was the intro.

 

[313 Wayz]

It would definitely thrive today......the only complaint someone may have would be the lack of cast diversity but then again the bar was in Boston

 

[Goldie]

Never could sit through a full episode of this show

Frazier WAS the spin-off.

It was a wack show.

 

[Loquacious]

I used to watch this to go to sleep.
