When this program started, I had a neighbor without a TV who would hear the laughter from our apartment. Thursday night became her night to visit. What a great show.

The relationship between Sam and Diane was easily the best part of Cheers. Comedy of the highest order!

[@alanmalcheski8882]

I agree

"On behalf of the intelligent women around the world" is one of my favorite Diane lines ever lol

In my humble opinion Shelly Long was born to play "Diane Chambers."

[@independentfilmchannel1476]

Too bad she didn't realize that after five years.

Some shows are flops during their time - like Star Trek - and only later do they go on to become huge hits . Time will tell - I bet that going forward, the episodes of Shelly Long will be more in demand than the later shows with Kirstie

[@shanefolan]

''Tbh though I wasnt a huge fan of Season 5 they wrote Diane poorly on purpose as they knew Shelley was leaving.'' That is nonsense fan fiction. She resigned half way through season 5 in December 86 so considering much of the episodes were broadcast or written by then it proves it isn't so. It is more likely that the writers had exhausted the Diane/Sam plot by season 5 so it was beginning to crack.

[@allknowingoracle3277]

@@shanefolan No Shelley said she told them she'd be leaving during production of Season 4 as that's when Ted extended his contract to six years but Shelley didnt as they knew she planned to leave when her 5 year contract expired as she'd signed a movie deal with Disney.
