Anti-Climacus

If your day is slightly less busy than mine, I highly recommend Mike Schur talking about the merits of Cheers. I was a bit too young to watch the show when it was first on (my Must-See-TV consciousness begins with Seinfeld), but I caught the show from the beginning on late-night tv way back in 2004 and find it just as impressive as everyone says. The pilot is an elegant, slow introduction of all the characters; the first season is one of the all-time great comedy seasons; season 5--Diane's last on the show--goes to some surprisingly deep places.
