One of the most beloved and critically-acclaimed television series of all time, CHEERS ran for 11 seasons and centered on the colorful staff and patrons of the Boston bar "where everybody knows your name." Run by former Red Sox pitcher and ladies' man Sam Malone (Ted Danson), the establishment's ever-present characters include salty barmaid Carla LeBec (Rhea Perlman), dimwitted bartender Woody Boyd (Woody Harrelson), barflies Norm Peterson (George Wendt) and Cliff Clavin (John Ratzenberger), pompous psychiatrist Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer), and his frosty love interest Lilith Sternin (Bebe Neuwirth). Following the departure of barmaid Diane Chambers (Shelley Long) in Season Five, the sixth season introduced Rebecca Howe (Kirstie Alley) as Cheers' ambitious but neurotic new manager after Sam's sale of the bar to a faceless corporation. Featuring guest appearances by Tom Skerritt, Robert Urich, Jay Thomas, Frances Sternhagen, and Harry Anderson, this collection presents all 25 episodes of CHEERS' Emmy Award-winning sixth season--including "Home is the Sailor," named by TV Guide as an all-time classic.

twenty-five delightful episodes that will leave you laughing and savoring every second
Included is an episode that's perhaps one of the series' all-time funniest—where Woody and Sam put their bodies on the line for a charity date auction!
Considering Cheers broke the mold, the DVD of Cheers' sixth season isn't just a fond remembrance, it is a part of television history.
