80s TV COMEDIES CRYPTOGRAM PUZZLES: Solutions
THE SHOW'S RUN
Cheers debuted in nineteen eighty-two and ended in ninety-three. It was a staple of NBC's must see Thursday night schedule. However, it was almost canceled in it's first season due to a poor showing in the ratings.
ACTORS
Sam and Diane were played by Ted Danson and Shelley Long, but Fred Dryer and Julia Duffy had also auditioned for the parts. They both ended up being guest stars on the show.
THE INVISIBLE CHARACTER
Norm's wife Vera was frequently mentioned but never shown on the show. On one episode she was nearly revealed to the audience, but her face was hit with a pie before the audience could see her face.
