Gravesite Of CHEERS TV Show Actor Nicholas Colasanto (COACH) & David Angell

[@joseyeastwood]

Kurt really knows his stuff Steve Rest In Peace to all the lost souls who lost their lives 21 years ago today September 11 2001 to evil in my condolences to their families.

[@mr.blackhawk142]

Jou got evil in yer condolences??? Just Juan question! HOW do you FIT all that in there???

[@judd442009]

It's great to see Kurt Deion again. It's remarkable that there have been a couple of generations of Americans who weren't born during "Cheer's" original run. Time marches on--as the graveyards attest.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Lol, I know, right? :-)

[@monicahyland8641]

I love how you can relate to everyone you talk to, you speak to them like you have known them forever. This guy really knows his history. He takes it all in. Beautiful cemetery.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Thanks Monica. Kurt's an awesome guy, so that makes it easy. And, yes, he really knows his history. I envy his amazing memory! :-)

[@mr.blackhawk142]

@ Monica, too bad the people who live in that area cannot be buried there!

[@jehobden]

Nicholas Colasanto was also a tv director. I've seen his work, as he directed the COLUMBO 1972-73 season premiere, "Etude in Black", which starred John Cassavetes & Blythe Danner, as well as Myrna Loy.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Thanks for sharing that with us Jon. I didn't know that.

[@texadonkey34]

Very nice collaboration. That’s sad about the wife too. I also read that Anthony Perkins’s wife was on a 9-11 flight that crashed. He’s very connected to the cemetery. 🌻🌻😊

[@RaeAnn_1202]

Kurt has so much interesting information. Such a sad story about David Angell and his wife. My parents were on a trip in LA years ago. They were in a small grocery store in an area that is not-so-nice. They noticed a gentleman walk in and get a cart. They recognized him right away because they were both fans of Cheers. They took the opportunity to chat briefly with Nick and let him know he was their favorite character. He was gracious and humble and they enjoyed meeting him. My mom always wondered why he was in that grocery store in that part of town. It left her wondering about his financial status. Thanks to you and Nick for this video.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Thanks for sharing that memory with us RaeAnn.

[@patrickt6642]

Very impressed with that young man's knowledge and very well spoken

[@leesashriber5097]

Thank you, Steve!! Coach was awesome! Thank you for the beautiful tribute. 🕊️🙏❤️ God bless all we lost that terrible day. To the heroes we thank you.

[@Lava1964]

It wasn't until 1987 that I started to watch Cheers when it began being shown widely in reruns in my area. I was hooked very quickly. Cheers was the last sitcom I religiously watched. The writing was especially excellent.

[@travelingwithmikeandpam9074]

Coach was such a great character! Missed him!

[@cjhoward409]

My parents were on a plane that fateful morning. They were going from Chicago to Orlando. Thankfully, they were not one of the hijacked planes BUT, unnerving nonetheless because I knew they were in the air and we all didn’t know at the time where all the hijackings had started from. They did have to land in Atlanta and take a bus the rest of the way, as all the planes were forced to land immediately.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

OMG, I remember when they grounded all planes. How freightening that must have been for your family. Thanks for sharing this memory with us Cj.

[@billl1127]

I was in a hotel in Times Sq on 9/11. It was a very surreal experience.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

OMG, that must have been terrifying. Thanks for sharing this with us Bill.

[@julienielsen3746]

Watched a few episodes of Cheers. I watch Frasier every week day. One of my favorite shows. So many stories about what happened to different people on 9/11. Those who lost loved ones that day. Just finished watching some interviews about an hour ago on the Discovery Channel.

[@jodywoodruff6473]

[@leftylou6070]

My Grandmother was a graduate of Bryant College in 1917. It was a girls college back then, I didn't realize they are now co-ed. Thanks for the Video!

[@kurtdeion]

I’m afraid I have some conflicting information about Bryant. It was not a women-only college at any point. The book “Bryant College: The First 125 Years” from 1988 says, “Beginning in the 1880s, the number of women students at Bryant and Stratton grew rapidly; although they continued to be a minority, they made up a sizeable group.” All the same, thank you for sharing this information about your grandmother, from someone who graduated 99 years after she did.

[@monikameza4107]

R.i.P to all the victims of 9-11. 🙏

[@lesliefitzgerald2354]

Still a fan ! :) Thank you again for reminding me how life is short nd we need to embrace the moments ! :)

[@HistoricallyMarked]

I'm sure most people as in Cheers fans know this but Colasanto was honored in the final episode, almost to the screen goes dark at the end. Nicholas Colasanto had a picture of Geronimo in his dressing room during his time on Cheers, and the rest of the series they put it by the piano in his memory. In the last moments of the final episode, Sam takes the time to straighten Geronimo's picture and stares at it for a moment. One of the best finales in TV history in my opinion. Great episode, and Kurt was really great. I know he has a website, but does he have a KZbin as well? Cheers! (no pun intended)

[@kurtdeion]

Thank you for pointing out the Cheers finale tribute! I do have a KZbin channel, technically, but I rarely upload anything at this point. Perhaps I will upload more in the future. Right now my content priorities are my website, Instagram, and the history-travel memoir I am attempting to publish.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Thanks for sharing that with us HM! I've been trying to get Kurt to start up his YT channel again, lol, but he is a very busy guy! He does already have a few really great videos though on his channel. Especially the one where he interviews the officer who was handcuffed to Lee Harvey Oswald when he was shot! Definitely check that one out for sure.

[@syreetaabney6968]

Enjoyed the video Steve and he was very knowledgeable and thanks Steve for sharing the memories.

Thanks for sharing that Steve. And I hope all the souls that were lost on 9.11 are resting peacefully in heaven! 🙏

[@Ms.HarmonyJ]

Hey Steve great video love Frazer and cheers in I'm 31

Angel started writing for Cheers in 1983. Colasanto left Cheers in early 1985 and missed a good chunk of season 3 due to health.... but they definitely knew each other from season 2 and season 3 of the show.

[@dtfg-33]

Kurt, great info! I hope you watch these older shows, especially "Frasier". Hilarious shows! Thanks Steve always great videos!

[@kurtdeion]

For some reason I’ve never had the impetus to watch Frasier, and as a teetotaler I’ve never had a desire to watch Cheers. I do enjoy many TV shows dating back to the 1950s, and The Twilight Zone is my second favorite show ever. Thank you for watching, and for supporting Steve - he’s great! It’s hard to believe it’s already been 4 months since we recorded this.

[@kurtdeion]

Happy to participate, Steve!

Great episode, guys. Very poignant... considering today is 9-11. A classic CHEERS Coach episode is "Pick A Con...Any Con". Season 1, Episode 19. Harry Anderson guests. Great twist at the end.

[@normahird9059]

Steve...... Very interesting vlog. I did watch Cheers from the beginning until the sad week that it ended. You know that I am an avid Pittsburgh Steelers and football fan. Well here is some trivia about Cheers for you. There was a former NFL football player who auditioned for the Sam Malone part who later went on to get his own police show. Fred Dryer of Hunter is that person. Great vlog. Cheers had so many great characters through the entire show. Again thanks for this great vlog. I will be humming the opening song and remembering the different episodes.Best to your husband.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

Hi Norma, I love trivia and I didn't know that. Wow, thanks for sharing this with us! It's interesting to wonder what the show would have been like with different cast members. :-)

[@neitajames6029]

Thank you Steve. Coach was quite a character. He was funny without forching it. It seemed to come naturally to him. Yes he was one of my favorites on Cheers, if not my favorite. They included his death in cheers, I believe woody came in asking about coach and was told coach had passed. Of course he was involved in other projects. Most will remember Nicholas Colasanto, as Coach from Cheers. RIP COACH.🙏🕯🌹🌠. Also 911 was a tradgety we will all remember. Sad David Angell was on one of those flights with his wife. Sad thier remain was not found till 7 years later. I lost an uncle in that disaster. He words in the financial building. I has just lost a grandmother 3 months earlier, I was already grieving. My uncle was just 39. Getting that news. Was one of the most painful things.today is 911 2022. 21 years and a lot of us has not healed. I still say 911 2001 was one of the worst Diasters this country has ever experienced. RIP David Angell and his wife.🙏🕯🕯🌹🌹✨🌠. I pray all the Victims are at Peace. ✌. Love,respect and positivity always. Neita and family.

[@craigtalbott731]

Debbie was a Providence native. I never watched "Cheers" and caught only several episodes of "Frasier", although Debs and I attended a filming of the show @ the Paramount Studios. The primary reason we went was that my wife worked @ a CPA firm where Kelsey Grammer was a client and Debs secured tickets through another employee who assisted w/ his account. (He would occasionally pop-in the office there and also raid the refrigerator.)

[@LawyerCalhoun1]

I never watched Cheers until the 5th season. Initially, I did not think a show about barflies would be very interesting. Those 9-11 remains were likely fragmentary, such as a piece of charred bone.

[@TheGraveyardChannel]

True, but at least they have a proper final resting place and memorial for friends and family and fans to remember them. Thanks Rob

[@babyfir77]

Colasanto also directed some episodes of Columbo, saw his name in the credits of this show on Tubi.

[@alcapozzi2611]

Very odd your Co host knows more about Cheers and it's history etc and has never watched it . Watching someone on this program really just proves how Steve is so perfect for this format. It's like watching the 2nd actor who played the original character of a great movie. Another fine job ! Your buddy Al. from Buffalo 😊
