Cheers

In honor of Netflix Instant’s return from an unexpected outage, we bring you the first new Qworthy post in months!

Perhaps the best sitcom of all time, Cheers managed to overcome a contentious cast situation with Shelly Long and then didn’t skip a beat when she left after five season. She was, of course, replaced by Kirstie Alley as Rebecca Howe, and the show lasted another six seasons. They also had to replace one of my all-time favorite sitcom characters, Coach, when Nicholas Colasanto died in 1985.

At 11 seasons, you could be forgiven for not sitting through the entire run of the show, but it’s a great fallback when you can’t find something else to watch instead of cleaning the kitchen.
