Format: Pre-Owned DVD Cheers is an American television sitcom that aired on NBC for eleven seasons from September 30, 1982, to May 20, 1993. The show is set in the titular bar in Boston, where a group of locals meet to drink, relax, socialize, and escape from their day-to-day issues.

The ensemble cast introduced in the pilot episode includes waitresses Diane Chambers and Carla Tortelli, second bartender Coach Ernie Pantusso, and regular customers Norm Peterson and Cliff Clavin.
