Review of Cheers

I do love sitcoms, and Cheers and its spin-off Frasier are two of the best sitcoms there are in my opinion. Cheers is a comedy classic, I have been a fan of it for quite some time now and never got round to reviewing it until now. The production values are of top notch quality, there's nothing cheap or dated about Cheers, not then, not now. The story lines, springing from a simple but good concept, are outstanding in their ideas and in their execution and Cheers has some of the best, funniest and creative writing I have heard and seen in a sitcom. The characters are wonderful, timeless and best of all real, all of them are easy to relate to and one of the main reasons, aside from the writing, why Cheers is such a hit for me. My favourite is the eloquent Frasier Crane, but I love them all equally. The acting is superb as well, not just from Ted Danson and Rhea Perlman but also from Kelsey Grammar, I can't choose who's the best as this is one of the rare sitcoms in my opinion where nobody gives a bad performance. Overall, a comedy classic that has stood the test of time. 10/10 Bethany Cox
