"is there an Ernie Pantusso here?" That's you coach, speaking!👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣
My absolute favorite line!👍👍🤣🤣🤣
You just saved me typing it out! :-)
@@robertschmidt7879 While I absolutely loved coach, and everything he did,
when he said, "speaking", the roar started, but the look on Diane's face, finished me.
@@justplainbrad7713 Comedic timing! :-) In my opinion, 1/2 beat later and it would’ve been an OK line.
@@robertschmidt7879It always was an OK line, and great scene to me, "Speaking" set me back in my seat, and was definitely enough to carry it through. Catching that sincere look of bewilderment on her face, likely went unnoticed, but it took nothing away from coach's scene...if fact, it enhanced the scene.
Coach was poetry in motion, and Diane was an enhancement, whom I really liked.
I Say that line still to this day.
Coach was the show's real MVP. I know it was able to move forward without him, but some of the magic was permanently missing after he died.
Coach was #legend. You simply can't learn that kind of comedic timing and delivery.
He was brilliant. As much as I loved Woody as well, I wish Coach was around for a couple, few more years.
Coach was awesome! Rest in peace Nick.
It's probable Coach is still getting swindled by Harry. =)
Coach was the funniest member of the cast on Cheers.
Hate to say it, but Frasier was the funniest instead. Coach was too predictable. Still love him though.
@@Amp661 Sort of, it's between Frazier and Harry the Hat.
Coach was such a decent man with a heart of gold.
Diane throwing the pitch at Coach has always been one of my favorite moments.
When this show was on I was happy. Full of hopes and dreams.
The same feeling as well
1982. I was 9 years old and to this day, I still love coach. R.I.P. Lou.
Me too !!! These were great shows not like today 🙄😊
Coach was so funny. So sad he passed away so soon in the show
It's also sad that they TOTALLY IGNORED his passing.
One would think they would have had more respect for him.
@@rogercraven2667 What a wonderful thought.
Imagine a "COMEDY", where they focused on a beloved cast member who had died...how long before the program died?
You could certainly work Coach's death into a joke, correct?
Some people cannot rationalize, and I've wondered, why?
They didn't totally ignore his passing; they just didn't dwell on it.
@@justplainbrad7713 you should get into. comedy, no way youd be missed.
@@jordansmith9743 So, you're one of those people who cannot rationalize. Tough luck!
Woody Harrelson was funny and did a great job but Cheers just wasn’t ever the same after Coach was gone. He was just so perfect in his portrayal and so damn funny.
Tough pair of shoes to fill. But Harrelson obviously proved he was more of a renaissance man. Some of the films he did were pretty nuts. I remember one with him, Liz Shue, and this one chick where I always forget her name, but her performances are pretty unique (I think she was also in American Psycho). He was a fantastic lead in it. Decades ago, though.
@@Novastar.SaberCombat I mean, I tripped out when I first saw Natural Born Killers. ;-b
@@wtfsalommy3250 What a phony piece of shit that movie was. Oliver Stone and quarantino are so overrated.
Every sitcom back in those days had it's dummy, most were kind of lame, but Coach was by far the funniest. Nicholas Colasanto's way of delivering those lines had you believe he was really simple minded, I cry laughing at some of those scenes. It's a real shame he never had the proper sendoff when he passed away like they did with Jack Soo on Barney Miller. He deserved it.
Hate to say it, but Coach wasn't really funny. His humour was too predictable.
One of the things that I love about the show so far (I’m only on the tail end of season one) is that none of the characters mock him or make fun of him for being simple minded. They just roll with it and accept him for who he is. In any other sitcom the other characters would usually make fun of a character like him for being so air-headed. Instead, the comedy of coach’s character comes from the fact that he’s so Ernest about everything, that you can’t help but laugh at his little remarks and quips to everything throughout the show. I give props to the actor for playing it so well. If anyone else were to play coach, I don’t think his personality would’ve been pulled off as well.
@annasambuco3877 I think they really respected him so much. They talk to some cast in sept, 23 and George Wendt said how do you change lkke that? He said as soon as he gets there he acts like he's 11 years old. I went to the bull and Finch in late 80s early 90s. Got a sweatshirt still have. Says Cheers, last call. With the date of final episode. 2nd most watched finally in tv history behind mash. But it ran on a night against tougher competition. A few days later a repeat was just as popular. But coach was great. A director too!!😂👍☮️
@@Amp661I think most fans would disagree with you. His delivery was great. The entire cast had great respect for the man. He wa very intelligent in real life. A director as well.🤣👍🤣☮️
@@mgebi1 I absolutely agree. He was the character to the nines, he even sounded like a baseball coach with his raspy voice, but his gag got very old after a couple seasons. Hell, eve the whole Sam and Diane gag also was way overdone, and there are some people who wanted to see them together! Maybe they see something I don't, but they were completely vitriolic for each other and it's obvious.
" hey look you guys, if you cant say it in front of me dont say it anymore"... that was priceless.
I love the little detail that he knows the names and ages of Carla’s kids off the top of his head
I'm bummed they left out the 1st episode with him telling Diane about Sam being a major league pitcher!
Coach: No, I mean it, he was the best. Sure as the earth is round.
Sam: You don't believe that.
Coach: I didn't until I saw those pictures from the space shuttle.
also missing from the 1st episode: when Coach answers the phone, and asks the Bar if there is an Ernie Pantusso there and Sam had to remind him who he was so Coach answers into the Phone, "Speaking"
You prolly dont care at all but does any of you know a way to log back into an instagram account?
I was dumb forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Avery Jagger instablaster :)
@Forest Ellis i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Forest Ellis it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my ass !
When Coach yells "o.k honey, I'm ready; Let her rip" how can you not laugh like a buffoon? We miss you Mr. Colasanto
Coach is the kinda mentor EVERYONE needs/deserves
I'll pass, thanks.
I was hoping it would have the one where he threw himself down the stairs. I wasn’t disappointed 😀
Before his career as a moonlighter, Coach worked as a stunt double on the set of The Exorcist. It's true!
He was in Mean Streets as well, if I remember correctly.
@@briancox9357 Raging Bull. Was one of the mobsters who controlled LaMotta
coach was one of the all time great sit com characters, and Nic was incredibly good at making him lovable.
How to be a dummy in a show but encompass loads of wisdom. Love Coach!
Great job editing. Thanks for all of your hard work!!
Thanks for watching!
@@RoxyCakes Cheers is one of my favourite comedies
I loooved Coach...great collection thanks. It feels good to laugh out loud ...too funny..
You are so welcome!
What a great show! Why can’t the networks make fantastic sitcoms anymore?
Because it's too "risky"
Because they've become soft. This show plus frasier would be too much "crossing the line" for pussies. That's why we need to appreciate these classics.
Too much hippie, woke, cancel culture, someone may get there feelings hurt, political, PC bullcrap🤣🤣
There are still fantastic sitcoms being made, it's just that multicam sitcoms, and more importantly, network television is going out of fashion. Now, I didn't grow up on Cheers (I'm nearly 23) , but like 5 years ago I decided to watch through all of Frasier on Netflix (having never seen an episode before), and then watched through all of Cheers after that (I did those out of order, I know). I really enjoyed both and would even call them some of the best TV shows I've ever watched, but I think it's unfair dismiss modern television altogether because you're more familiar with this format or just nostalgic for particular shows from this era. If you want fantastic modern sitcoms, try Parks and Rec, Community, 30 Rock, Arrested Development, The Good Place, The Office, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and Schitt's Creek just to name a few. For what it's worth, if you're only referring to *network* multicam sitcoms when saying that sitcoms aren't "fantastic" anymore (which you very well could be--you specifically mention networks in your comment), then generally speaking I agree with you. But if you want to know why these shows have declined in quality, it's because modern audiences are generally preferring streaming services over network TV or cable, so that's where the quality TV shows are going. On top of that, the single-camera format has become preferred by modern audiences, and we're getting sick of laugh tracks. So if it's a modern, multicam, network sitcom either filmed in front of a live studio audience or with a laugh track that you're looking for, I'm sorry, but those are just going out of fashion. But if it's good writing, good characters, and good laughs that you're interested it, I suggest one of the shows I mentioned earlier
They're too busy rebooting. What a sad development and a full admission that imagination is dead.
First scene I saw with him he picks up the phone and says cheers. Just a minute I’ll check. Is there an Ernie Pantuso here?? That’s you coach. Speaking 😂😂😂
Coach just Made the show ,he was a great Character and I missed him when he passed.
#Cheers to me is without question one of the all-time top 3 sitcoms in TV history. Excellent writing, and stellar casting also. One of my favorite Coach moments was when Coach hurt himself at the bar and the ensuing conversation with Diane (I'm writing this is from memory so lines may be off):
D: Coach! Are you okay??
C: Yeah I'm fine. That was nothing.
D: Coach, you must have a high tolerance for pain!
C: Tolerance? I don't know the meaning of the word.
D: That's impressive!
C: No seriously, I don't know what that word means.
🤣🤣
Honestly one of my favorites was when he sung into the phone
Thank you for the memories. ❤️🇵🇹
Coach was the best.
If you like Nick's acting.....catch him in Kojak, where he played a mob boss. It was awesome.
Also the movies Raging Bull and Fat City.
The Look on Sam's face when Coach left with Nina Lol!
The coach was so funny.he is legend.for me the best actor in cheers.rip coach. Cheers without diane and coach was not same anymore.
Your right.cheers got better. Coach wasn't really funny and Diane was HORRIBLY annoying and stupid, especially around season 5. Good god and good riddance.
For me first 5 sesaons was better
@@Amp661 Boy are you off the mark. Diane was the best thing on the show and Coach was a close second. I stopped watching regularly after season 5. Only Frasier and Lilith were worth my time after that. Sam was boring without Diane, Norm and Cliff became stagnant, Woody was a cheap imitation of Coach, and worst of all was that badly conceived white trash moron and epic pain in the ass Carla.
Nick Was Very Funny On Cheers with a lot of heart!! R.I.P. Nick!! 🙏🙏
"oh Thank God, i thought I had malaria" LOL
Coach was one of a kind man, i loved his character, he had a heart or gold man, Rip Nick Castlano
Mr Colasanto was brilliant. Coach should have lived forever.
This week a channel here showed a series of classic Columbo episodes, and two of them back to back were Etude in Black with John Cassavetes and Swan Song, the one with The Man in Black, Johnny Cash.... And they were both directed by Nicholas Colasanto! It's weird thinking of Coach being behind the camera, but it just shows what a great comedic actor he was.
I had no idea.
He directed at least one early Colombo episode.
Coach was amazing. It was so sad when he passed.
Can't believe you didn't have the clip where his tie gets in the blender. He notices, and fries or "My tie, my tie!.....anybody want a Mai tai?". Great stuff, though.
Some of my edits get taken down.....
Works every time 😂😂
Great show for sure!!
Loved coach. So glad they didn't replace him with another old man like on Hill Street Blues
Agreed, It was great that Woody was brought in as a kind of young Coach instead,
@@RoxyCakes yes that was the brilliant part. With Coach he waz Sam's coach and father figure. Then when Woody came you saw Sam being the father figure to him.
Strange you should mention that. Robert Prosky was the actor who replaced Michael Conrad on "Hill Street Blues" when Conrad passed away. Kirstie Alley replaced Shelley Long when she left "Cheers" in 1987. So only a few years later who did "Cheers" hire to play the part of Rebecca's visiting father from San Diego? Yep, Robert Prosky!😂B.W.
It would have seemed like a cheap move if they would have. Bringing in woody was genius.
I liked it when Lucy Bates was the desk sergeant for a time before Jablonski was brought in, who was no Phil Esterhaus, unfortunately.
I forgot how good this show was ..
When you got a bartender especially in Boston nicknamed The Coach the regulars shuffle in every night and you got a great neighborhood watering hole
There's nothin in the world like a Bawstin Bah especially with locals like this.
I got a bar in downtown L.A. called Hank's. He was an old seadog who died in the late 80's, but every now and then I hear an old story about him.
Rest in peace Nick
I love your videos.
we ned tv show like this back on air tv
He hates that question
I have seen every episode God only knows how many times. 1st time I got or caught the Sir Isaac Hayes joke. Lol
He just doesn’t know what to do with himself 🎹
Coach.. he definitely made the show!! I wonder how the show would have been if he didn't pass..
When he passed. It got better honestly. Woody was still bad but not blatant like coach.
@@Amp661 "better" my ass. All they did was give all the lines that would have gone to Coach to Woody.
RIP coach you are missed
Coach was the only character Carla didn't verbally abuse...
I loved that guy
Go Great Friends and Groups and Supporters. And Viewers.
Go One Hundreds.
You're Tops. & You All Are Number One!!
I love seeing the Taxi crossover actors!
i love norm's quote way to hum girl right in the honeydew and coach is ok after being hit by the baseball Lol
Coach was hilarious
It works all the time..👌😎
I was sad when Diane left Sam to write a book! He took it like a man when he told her "Have a good life" I cry every time I watch that part, but then again I wanted to slap Diane for breaking Sam's heart!
Breaking sam's heart? Don't you know what kind of guy Sam is? He wouldn't change his lothario ways. They were beating a dead horse with the whole diane/Sam romance bull. It was a relief when she left the show.
It was really sad.
He was also a director on a few Colombo
Episodes
Frasier. And Cheers
The twins but was never the same.
Frasier and Sam the protagonists.
Woody is Niles
Diane is Daphne
Roz and Carla
Coach and Dad Martin
Norm and Kenny
Cliff is Bob
...and then theres Lillith !
My favorite characters:
1. Coach
2. Woody
3. Cliff
4. Norm
My favorite characters:
1. Frasier
2. Harry the Hat
3. Carla
Colasanto always reminded me of a more cipher, slightly more charismatic Richard Dawson. RIP to both. 💪😎✌️
❤ her
Coach was the goat
I can still sing the Albania song.
He was the original dumb blonde, but one with a big heart.
"original"? You must be very young.
He played a mafia boss in Raging Bull...
Tim B - I remember seeing him in that after he'd died and I was shocked. He was COMPLETELY different in that - very hard and tough - than he was in Cheers.
Cheers is easily the greatest sitcom of all time, and Coach was a huge reason why. Brilliant actor, and underrated.
Not underrated. The last scene of the show was dedicated to him, Sam fixing the indian portrait on the wall.
@@redacted2275 No kidding. But, no awards or anything. Not well known today.
Not the greatest of all time. I'd save that for Frasier who was legions funnier. Coach was one dimensional so he really wasn't funny thought. Woody was worse because he was the same.
6:44 this scene is amazing bait and switch
But what can he do?
He gets on base.
Sitting Bull❤
3:57 😂
You have too be a cheers fan and grow up in the generation too get it and I get it ❤️
Diane was so fine
LOLOLOL
I remember when cheers first came on the air. It was considered a racy show and they had to show it after 9 o'clock once the kids were in bed but my Dad would let me stay up and watch it with him. That's true as well there was a time when Cheers was considered a show for adults because it was in a bar and dealt with adult issues how Sam was a womanizer and everything else especially the very early years when Coach was on the show. It was on at 9 o'clock for that reason. Thursday nights. That later became a prime slot. TV used to be so different. Cheers literally changed television.
Cheers changed nothing. It stood alone except for maybe Seinfeld. 30 Rock was the last really great sitcom. Network TV after the new century began became a virtual wasteland of game shows and reboots. No imagination.
No secret / interesting Easter egg in the Ted Lasso finale - the bartender, May, adjusts the picture of Geronimo that hung in the bar of that series as a tribute to the Cheers finale when Sam adjusts the picture. That same picture hung in Colasanto's dressing room. I love that kind of thing.

R.I.P. Nicholas Colosanto but it’s Coach Kisha was the bomb but then Woody Harrelson replaced him it was such a tragic for him when he had a heart attack but he would’ve made his life a great career than ever and On cheers
What the Hell are you talking about?
@@waynemarvin5661 I meant he was the bomb coach on the show cheers
@@waynemarvin5661 That’s what I’m talking about
Sir Issac Hayes 😂
7:48 does anyone notice that cliff sounded different back then?
To his credit, Cliff was always the only member of the cast to use a Boston accent.
He also directed several episodes of "Hawaii Five-O"
Is there an Ernie Pantuso here?
Another sitcom they can't seem to make today???
Be careful what you ask for....
The sad thing is that Nicholas knew he was in bad shape especially with the alcoholism that led to his congestive heart failure and yet he took the role of Coach anyway. The sad thing is that the show was slowly killing him and each year up until his heart attack he got worse. I wonder if he didn't take the role and retired from acting how many more years he could have lived. I personally think he wouldn't have made it to 70, but at least he beloved by everyone in that cast.
Im on my way to first
You edited in a scene from the episode with the prospective priest about to enter the seminary and you didn't include Coach's funniest bit.
Coach: I always thought I might like to be a priest, I thought it would be a nice quiet life"
Priest: Well allow me to dispel your misconceptions.
Coach: (kneeling down before the priest) Oh, thank you father!
That was a riot
1:00 -- wasn't he in Soap?
Yes he was. He played the convict who escaped from jail. Character’s name was Dutch.
Yep. Donnelly Rhodes. He was a Canadian, and I know him, now, form 'Soap', but being born in 1973, I knew him from a Canadian show called 'Danger Bay' (played on CBC from 1985-1990). I'm remembering now after quick research that I just did ('cause I couldn't remember his real name) that he died in 2018 at 80 years old
Last semester, my son comes home from college, with his new girlfriend, who’s black…
And your son’s not.
I wonder what the guy after Gus expected him to do about his son's fianceé (if she was the issue).
His fiancé and his son are gay. It's mentioned in the episode.
OK, but what does he expects Gus to do about it?@@Amp661
everyone knows your name
I LOVED DIANE she was gorgeous and a perfect match for Sam, perfect. I did not like Kristy at all she was either, hollering, crying, pissing and moaning or acting like a spoiled child. To me Kristy was obnoxious. Diane brought spark, excitement, charm, intelligence, fun, up lifting banter that was so missed after she left. Diane brought pizzazz punctuated with a spirit and zest for life. The show was never the same when Kristy Alley came. Yes the zipper segment was funny but again it would have been hilarious with Diane. I do not see Diane in the reunion segments. Their seemed to be a dislike for her by one of the cast members after Diane left the show. My obvious guess is that it was jealously. We all wanted Diane and Sam to make it So sad that she left the show.
My belief is that when Kirstie began on Cheers, the shos began to go downhill. Rebecca wAS JUST ANOTHER /LOSER WITH NO INTEELIGENCE TO SPEAK OF, A/WHEN Diane left, the shlw died, only FQRSIER ABD
Lilith had anything intelligent to say.
@@bobbyproulx5688 Yes I quit watching also. With Diane we had a sitcom with an intelligent, social and value minded plots. When Kristie came in the show became another trailer trash type show with low level interaction similar to so many other obnoxious sitcoms. Writers thought to get laughs the actors had to be obnoxious in real life as well. Hollywood took us DOWN THE TUBES.
If you think Diane was perfect for Sam, something is definitely wrong. Sam is a lothario, and doesn't want to stop. Diane is opposite that and has even taken hurt for how indirect his womanizing is to other women. Yet she persists and is constantly put down. How are they good for each other again?
Diane was also extremely annoying towards season 5 and her character got old quicker than anticipated. Plus, Sam hitting on Rebecca shows he's NOT a good fit for Diane.
@@Amp661 I know Shelly was also getting tired of playing the chase and say no role. She thought that Diane and Sam should get married. At the end of the season they actually filmed a wedding between them that must have been filed away when Shelly decided to leave the show. I give her a lot of credit for trying to find ways to play Diane's chase escapades. As far as Ted or Sam and Rebecca. I stopped watching after Diane left the show it was never the same after that. I did not like the loud mouth pushy Rebecca. The spark of excitement was gone for me after Diane left. She was fabulous.
Agree. Stopped watching. The nutter Kirstie Alley was intolerable.
I'm sorry. I don't mean to be rude, but the like I gave was for Cheers. Not you. This thank you for bring Cheers to me was indeed for you.
I am sure glad Diane left the bar and Rebecca came in.
I liked the Kirstie Alley years, too. Love the entire series.
No way. Diane was the heart of the show after Coach. When she left they all became sociopaths.
Hello
Hi Mike Or Shaun One Stoping By and Wishing A friendly Hellos and Best S.
And Go Top Groups and Viewers and Book Writers, Clubs, and Fans. And Go Top Tv Supporters & Fans ALL A's s.
So this more Diane than coach. these weren't even funny .
These were funny
"Mr and Mrs bubble butt "
" yeah it make a nice break in the day "
I understand that it was a different time, but... DAMN, his character didn't age well.. (LOL SEVERE CTE AND BRAIN DAMAGE IS HILARIOUS!) I'm just saying it's more uncomfortable now than funny.
Acting
