Cheers is probably my all time favourite sitcom, and the annoying, know-it-all postman Cliff Clavin, played by John Ratzenberger, is one of my favourite characters.
If you ever watched Cheers, you may remember that Cliff had a recurring on-again, off-again romance with a fellow postal worker, Margaret "Maggie" O'Keefe. Well, I just discovered that the actress who played Maggie was actually Annie Golden, lead singer of New York new wave band The Shirts.

(That's a great album cover.)
Here's Annie / Maggie a few years before she met Cliff...
She was a lot chirpier before she started hanging out with Cliff, but I can understand that.
ReplyDeleteI loved Cheers. Saw it first time around and a couple of mammoth rewatches since (every episode, all 275 of them) on DVD. Followed by Frasier (ditto revisiting every one on DVD) and the rebooted Frasier from a couple of years ago.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly, Frasier wasn’t the first, or even the second, Cheers spin-off. Though I guess you already knew that.

Was there one about Carla's family / ex? I could google it, but I can't think of any others.
