Last call for Season 1! In part two of the season finale, George and Randy discuss one of the most iconic scenes in all of Cheers history, give an extended treatment to the top songs and movies during the summer of 1983, and reveal their decision as to the best episode of the season…the episode that will receive the coveted “Cristal with Bottle Service” designation. Join the guys as they look back on the first season, look forward to the second season and debate why exactly Sam Malone will be walking funny in the morning. (Review starts - 7:25)
As we near closing time on season one, things are getting serious. In “Showdown, Part 1”, Ted Danson does some of his finest dramatic work, we discover what is The Combat Zone and Randy is near tears as his children fail to appreciate a key 1980s action film. Pull up a chair, enjoy the bar chatter and learn why George calls this a ‘coaster’ episode. (Review starts - 7:00)
As we near the season one finale, it is party time at Cheers Weekly!! On top of the honor of meeting Diane’s mother and Paul teaching us the lyrics to Bonanza’s theme song, we get riveting commentary on USA Network dramas, The Leftovers, Seinfeld and The Facts of Life…and then a free round on the house…George’s stirring cover of Men at Work’s “Down Under”!

Only top-shelf product this week! First, we have Randy betting on George's Oscar knowledge. Then we have George raising the bar on the Cheers Weekly ratings scale establishing a brand-new, innovative level. But those are actually just bonuses - the true reason for this being a classic? An entire episode dedicated to Harry The Hat (Harry Anderson) entitled "Pick a Con...Any Con". And if you're from Philly...Harry said it, we didn't. (Review starts - 3:37)
