Some of the Cheers writers and directors also wrote and directed Wings.  :)

George Wendt and John Ratzenberger both appeared in one episode of Wings (The Story of Joe (1990)) as Norm and Cliff.

Edit: Kelsey Grammer and Bebe Neuwirth also appeared in a Wings episode (Planes, Trains and Visiting Cranes (1992)) as Fraiser and Lilith.  :D


That DOES ring a bell, about them being in that airport.  I loved Wings.  And now I love Steven Weber. 

Lee, sorry for my chopped liver post.  It doesn't look as funny as I meant it to be when I wrote it.  No worries.  {{{Lee}}}

Yes. I remember some of the writers saying they really tried to keep a "Cheers" look and feel when they created "Wings". Helen's lunch counter always reminded me of the Cheers bar a little bit. I suppose that's why.

Also, both shows take place in Massachusetts; Cheers in Boston, and Wings in Nantucket. Maybe I shouldn't have said it was a spin-off from Cheers, but rather the two shows are closely related to each other. But there ARE a few common bonds that link the two shows together, and I think the writers were trying to point that out when some of the Cheers characters appeared in a couple of the Wings episodes.  :D

Yeah, I like Steven Weber too. I've also been a big Timothy Daly fan for a long time. He was so cute in Wings. He's still very good looking. Tim will be starring in a new show this Fall called "Private Practice". I can't wait to see it!  :)

Okay. Back to the Cheers lines now! Sorry about that Jess. I'm not trying to hijack your thread here!

I love reading all these funny quotes from the show. They are very funny!  :laugh:
