Laid-back Sam Malone, a former relief pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, owns and runs Cheers, a cozy bar in Boston. He hires smart, uptight -- and jilted -- Diane Chambers as a server, out of sympathy, but their attraction causes constant bickering. Wacky characters fill the bar: sarcastic waitress Carla, beer-loving accountant Norm, know-it-all postman Cliff. When Diane leaves Boston much later, Sam sells the bar, buys a boat and sails the world, but his boat sinks, so he returns. New, ambitious manager Rebecca Howe hires him back, but they love to hate each other too.

Lucy Clark Sydney Morning Herald 06/15/2021
[Kirstie] Alley is excellent. So Cheers is still excellent and worth a good laugh. So much, of course, depends on the writing, and the script is still as sharp as a tack. Go to Full Review Doug Anderson Sydney Morning Herald 06/15/2021
It's a good natured show, laid back and sufficiently flexible to sustain a high degree of self parody while enjoying the capacity to include the viewer as part of the regular gang who frequent the bar. Go to Full Review James Plath Movie Metropolis 01/19/2015
Cheers spun off in a slightly new direction the sixth season, but the quality of writing and the laughs as consistent as in previous years. All of the shows are entertaining, with a handful of them riotously funny and engaging. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

07/16/2021 I've thoroughly enjoyed two sitcoms in my entire life, both before my "time" and this is one of them. Hilarious and fun. See more 05/02/2017 I hate change, I didn't like the Diane character. But they changed the whole show based on her leaving. That sucks See more dave d @RT34924333 09/21/2016 Rewatching this series from start to finish is pure joy! See more Read all reviews
