In the past I covered some of my favorite Kiddie TV Shows, Adult TV Shows, Movie Theme Songs and even some of the scariest movie theme mewsic. I guess I’m gonna have to get creative with today’s pick, huh?
Cheers, aired 1982-93. Ted Danson plays Sam Malone, a skirt chaser and former Boston Red Sox relief pitcher who owners & bartender. The show centers around a group of drinking buddies fellowship filled with laughs in a local bar. The original cast of characters included Diana Chambers (Shelley Long) as a sophisticated Boston University graduate student who gets jilted at the altar leaving her without a husband, job, or money and reluctantly takes a cocktail waitress job at Cheers. She eventually gets tangled up with Malone. “Coach” Ernie Pantusso (Nicholas Colasanto) as the forgetful but lovable co-bartender and retired baseball coach. Carla Tortelli (Rhea Perlman), a sarcastically funny cocktail waitress who treats customers badly and single mom to a brood of young hooligans. Norm Peterson (George Wendt), the accountant and everyone know his name when he enter they shout, “NORM”. Cliff Clavin (John Ratzenberger), a middle-age bachelor, US mail carrier, and annoying ‘know-it-all” norotrious for uttering nonsensical trivia to his friends and lives at home
Three’s Company, aired eight seasons (1977-84) with John Ritter (Jack Tripper), Suzanne Somers (Chrissi Snow), and Joyce DeWitt (Janet Wood). The series revolved around three roommates sharing an apartment. What made this particular fun is the Three’s Company clan had to fool their landlord, Stanley Roper (Norm Fell) to allow opposite sexes to live together by telling him that Jack was gay which was the furthest thing from the truth. It was loads of giggles as the threesome tried to hide the truth from Mr. Roper.
Remington Steele, aired 1982-87 with Stephanie Zimbalist (Laura Holt) and Pierce Brosnan (Remington Steele). The basis of this comedy of a female private eye who opens a business but quickly learns it’s a man’s world still and cleverly invents a factious male partner, Remington Steele. A former thief and con man with no name (Brosnan) hijacks Holt’s make-believe partner’s identity, Remington Steele. She allows it because she can’t risk turning her new client base away but as the farce continues, love blooms. What can I say, it’s a fabulous witty sitcom which launched Brosnan’s career.
Taxi, aired 1979-83. The storyline surrounds the lives of the factious NYC Sunshine Taxi Cab service. Most of the cabbies see it as a ‘hold over’ until they hit the bankroll, except for one driver who claims his status as a cabbie, Alex Reiger (Judd Hirsch). Elaine Nardo (Merilu Henner) is a single mother working as a receptionist at an art gallery by day, Tony Banta (Tony Danza), a boxer waiting to break his long losing streak, Bobby Wheeler (Jeff Conaway) a struggling actor hoping to catch a lucky break, John Burns ( written off after first season) a college student, “Reverend Jim” Ignatowski (Christopher Lloyd) brain-fried old hippie minister learning the ropes a cabbie, Latka Gravas (Andy Kaufman) the big-eyed impressionable mechanic from an unnamed foreign country, and the grumpy dispatcher, Louie DePalma (Danny Devito) who’s not too big on dishing kind words
Bosom Buddies, aired 1980-82 with Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari. In the pilot, Kip Wilson (Hanks) and Henry Desmond (Scolari), wake to find their apartment building under demolition. The two guys transform themselves as women to find low-cost residence at the Susan B. Anthony complex tailored for only females. At first, they think the idea won’t work but Kip meets the gorgeous Sony Lument (Donna Dixon) and convinces Henry that the experience will make a great book idea, so with the help of co-worker, Amy Cassidy (Wendie Jo Sperber) who has a crush on Henry, the boys move in as under the pseudo Buffy (Hanks) and Hildegard(Scolari) finding creative ways to outwit the landlady and other girls in the building.
