I’ve always loved how almost everyone says, “Norm” in this really loud but welcoming manor, but then Coach just screams it at the top of his lungs like there’s a fire
I once met George Wendt, in a professional setting. It was years after 'Cheers' and he was playing a lead in a big theatre production. Someone offered to me to meet him, and I being a consummate professional myself greeted him by saying; "Great to meet you Mr. Peterson". After that I'm pretty sure I turned bright red, caught fire and fell to ash. The last words I remembering hearing were something like, "I get that all the time".
Went to Oktoberfest in Cincinnati Ohio. Met George Wendt. Sat and drank beer with him and watched Chicago Bears game very nice man. His family was there also very nice person
"What'll you have Normie?" "Well, I'm in a gambling mood Sammy. I'll take a glass of whatever comes out of the tap." "Looks like beer Norm." "Call me Mister Lucky." What can I do for you, Norm? Open up those beer taps and, oh, take the day off, Sam. Hey, Mr. Peterson, Jack Frost nipping at your nose? Yep, now let's get Joe Beer nipping at my liver. "Hey Mr. Peterson, there's a cold one waiting for you." "I know. If she calls, I'm not here." What can I do for you, Norm? Well, I am going to need something to kill time before my second beer. Uhhh, how about a first one? Hey, Mr. Peterson, you got room for a beer? Nope, but I am willing to add on. "Beer, Norm?" "Have I gotten that predictable? Good." "What's going on Mr. Peterson?" "A flashing sign in my gut that says, 'Insert beer here.'" Can I draw you a beer, Norm? No, I know what they look like. Just pour me one. How about a beer, Norm? Hey, I'm high on life, Coach. Of course, beer is my life. "Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?" "Alright, but stop me at one...make that one-thirty." "Can I pour you a beer Mr. Peterson?" "A little early isn't it, Woody?" "For a beer?" "No, for stupid questions. What do you say, Norm? Any cheap, tawdry thing that'll get me a beer. How's a beer sound, Norm? I dunno'. I usually finish them before they get a word in.
God I loved this back in the day. I remember one very funny quote from Norm. "Vera wished I looked more like Charles Bronson And I wished she looked less" Or something like that, well it was almost 40 years ago. Still funny though to this day.
I dont think the screaming "NORM" thing would fit in with her character, she'd rather wait to the riff raff had screamed their guts out and greet him with a polite "Norman", I always thought the way coach screamed his name was way over the top and almost ruined the whole thing
I went to a taping during the final season of Cheers. Afterwards the cast was milling about and my friend asked George Wendt for an autograph. He refused because of "security reasons ".Paul Willson, on the other hand, came up and mingled with the audience and gladly signed his name. In fact, he had me turn around and used my back as a solid surface and signed his name for my friend. Paul was great! George Wendt was and is still probably an asshole.
It's the fans who make you a success. I have had the privilege of meeting presidents and men who have walked on the moon and they showed more class than an actor.
@@Mrgop i have met actors and athletes (football,baseball), in his defense i was later told he was almost illiterate and almost to a man they are butt heads.
"What's new, Norm?"
"Terrorists, Sammy. They've taken my stomach hostage and are demanding beer..."
Woody: "What's going on, Mr. Peterson?"
Norm: "Let's talk about what's going IN Mr. Peterson."

Yeah, I feel it ruined it slightly to be honest
i just noticed this watching clips here on youtube, it is pretty damn funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@philmuggeson1849 Really?

"Like a baby treats a diaper."...
Other best line ever :)

I would have been like NORMM!
5:42 Paul: "What do you mean?" followed by the facial expression of instant regret LOL.

That's awesome! Was he scheduled to be there?
@Michael Richmond Jr you are an asshole!
Awesome,Mike!
@Michael Richmond Jr who hurt you?
Bucket list... check.

Ugh. I felt that!
We used to wear similar hats in the Mormon temples. Plus robes and green aprons.
Frasier: 'Oh my God! I'm in one of Norm's dreams!' Lol
Andrae Coleman Goodness. Hi
Andrae Coleman...I knowwww 😆😆😆. That was HILARIOUS!!!
Happy belated Birthday George Wendt!
So i always miss the 1st running of good sitcom's like cheers...Seinfeld & others...im glad they had reruns...
They picked the right person to do a spin-off. I think Kelsey grammar was the only person in the cast who could carry his own show.
Woody Harrelson did alright for himself.
@@ipudisciple he did, but I don't think his character would've been a good lead for a spin-off.
@@nicholasfarrell5981 Exactly
@@ipudisciple That's an understatement.
Man I forgot how good Norms one liners were.
"hows life treating you"... "like he caught me with his wife"
I can't do that to the navy..😂
The last one 😁 Norm's world comes crashing down!
Awesome stuff!👍
Am in Norms dreams HahahHa. Brilliant
"Norm"! My farther use to "Teach" at the cafe he stop at to have coffee after work.
Norman.
George Wendy wrote most of the Norm entrance gags
I love the fact that kids from 2000 and on will never know what it's like to slam a phone reciever hard when mad at someone and hanging up on them
You can toss it like a frisbee, almost as cathartic
Love it
NORM!
Heyyyy you guys got a cash register back here 🤣🤣🤣
Why is it that Diane is always the last to say “Norman”?
I dont think the screaming "NORM" thing would fit in with her character, she'd rather wait to the riff raff had screamed their guts out and greet him with a polite "Norman", I always thought the way coach screamed his name was way over the top and almost ruined the whole thing
To remind the audience Diane is the outsider because she refuses to "lower" her level to cheers.
Diane loved Norm. Her Norman! was probably the highlight of her day.
Plus it was different.
She always had to have the last word
I need part three
Norman..
Wow he could move for a big guy.
Gonna be fat and from Chicago, better be light on your feet.
Why is Cheers not on tv anymore???
It's on Hallmark
I lived in the bull&finch as a mouse in the attic...I say I must say . What's woody been doing lately
They dont serve pints in this bar? hahah
How was cliffie persuaded not to go to Canada?
The Green Beret hymn
jenny gore No. Hi. Yes. Bye
Noooorm!
Why are these clips so low in visual quality? They didn't broadcast in this quality !!

Bill Holstein -It would be easy to become an “asshole” with people “Jonesing” for your autograph all the time!

More likely you just shoved it in his face. You had it coming. People like you are the reason this world is in the crapper.
@@Mrgop i have met actors and athletes (football,baseball), in his defense i was later told he was almost illiterate and almost to a man they are butt heads.
I always hated how Diane would say Norman after everyone yelled Norm. Freaking annoying
Did you miss the fact that the whole point of Diane's character was to be annoying?
@@geoffreyholland328 Exactly. Diane was supposed to be a snob. Shelley Long played her brilliantly.
No, it was Diane's bit of nice.
