That's why I like Frasier. It appeals to my intelligence and sense of refinement.

It's not. Frasier ascends and aspires to make the viewer feel more. Cheers may seem on the surface to connect to Joe Everyman far better, but that's just because of its ordinary setting. When you can connect with snooty, rich, and pompous Frasier Crane and realize that his imperfections and even dark sides are things that everybody has, it means the experience has resonated with you far better.

Cheers was brilliant, don't get me wrong. It was the first of its type. Frasier took what Cheers was (very much like a theatrical stage within a sitcom) and ADDED to its dimensions.

Also, Frasier went 11 seasons. Just saying...

I don't think I've ever made it through an episode of Cheers. When I was younger, whenever I heard the Cheers theme song come on the TV, it usually meant that it was around the time where my mom or dad would tell us that it was "bed time" and it would piss me off. Whenever I've seen a rerun on TV since then, I've always changed the channel real quickly because I think, "ugh, there's that TV show that meant bed time as a kid."

Same thing with M*A*S*H.

I recorded the final episode of Cheers as a ten year old, but I was a weird kid.

Macgyver was pretty cool shit. Watched quite a bit of that. I remember there being a certain night of the week as a 7 or 8 year old where our family would watch Macgyver, Unsolved Mysteries and Rescue 911 all in the same evening. Then we'd watch the news and as soon as that was over, the M*A*S*H or Cheers theme song would come on and boom, it was time for bed.

I was able to catch a few episodes of Magnum PI as a kid. I remember thinking it was pretty cool, but I don't remember much about it. To be honest, the only thing that sticks out out to me now when I think back about it is Selleck's mustache and a boat of some sort crashing in the water.

It was good because the music was so eerie and it had a great host. problem was it anti climactic - hence the title. it was still damn good for show that never had a real ending.

and it did a lot of UFO stories. love me some UFO's, and i'm not even morman

Cheers was awful, I can't stomach watching a full episode either.

MacGyver and Airwolf are now on Netflix.

He seems too humble to do that.

Married with Children was the best from that period, in my opinion.

Where is the next roast? The people demand more fat jokes.

Frazod contracted a flesh eating bacteria, but it died of diabetes.

Being a fatass doesn't run in his family. It rides a rascal.

Nice. I did not know that. I'll have to watch those in the near future. I've become such a tight ass with my money that Netflix is all I have for TV (with an exception of DVD's, VHS tapes and whatever my bunny ears pick up).
