NORM!!!!!

[vhrocker]

Some of the best Norm Peterson quotes from "Cheers":

"What's shaking Norm?"
"All four cheeks & a couple of chins."

"What's new Normie?"
"Terrorists, Sam. They've taken over my stomach & they're demanding beer."

"What'd you like Normie?"
"A reason to live. Give me another beer."

"What'll you have Normie?"
"Well, I'm in a gambling mood Sammy. I'll take a glass of whatever comes out of the tap."
"Looks like beer, Norm."
"Call me Mister Lucky."

"Hey Norm, how's the world been treating you?"
"Like a baby treats a diaper."

"What's the story Mr. Peterson?"
"The Bobsey Twins go to the brewery. Let's cut to the happy ending."

"Hey Mr. Peterson, there's a cold one waiting for you."
"I know, if she calls, I'm not here."

"What's going on, Mr. Peterson?"
"A flashing sign in my gut that says, 'Insert beer here.'"

"Whatcha up to, Norm?"
"My ideal weight if I were eleven feet tall."

"How's it going, Mr. Peterson?"
"Poor."
"I'm sorry to hear that."
"No, I mean pour."

"How's life treating you, Norm?"
"Like it caught me sleeping with its wife."

"Women. Can't live with 'em.... pass the beer nuts."

"What's going down, Normie?"
"My butt cheeks on that bar stool."

"Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
"Alright, but stop me at one....make that one-thirty."

"How's it going Mr. Peterson?"
"It's a dog eat dog world, Woody & I'm wearing Milk Bone underwear."

"What's the story Norm?"
"Boy meets beer. Boy drinks beer. Boy meets another beer."
"Can I pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
"A little early, isn't it, Woody?"
"For a beer?"
"No, for stupid questions."

It's a little known fact that Cheers is my favorite show.

Thanks for posting those vhrocker.

btw, "Norm" was a nickname of mine in college. I didn't look like George Wendt or anything, but boy could I drink, and make the occasional wise crack.

"Women. Can't live with 'em.... pass the beer nuts."

One of the greatest lines ever in TV. And Cheers was my favorite as well.

Great list, here's another:

(shot of rain coming down)
(Norm enters)
Sam: Still pouring Norm?
Norm: That's funny, I was about to ask you the same thing.

The funniest moment in TV hstory may just be the episode where the gang is bowling against Gary's and Norm walks off camera to go get a few beers. Off camera you hear a door open and then everybpdy shouts "Norm". Sam says , "they know Norm here?" and Cliff says "hey, Norm has a life."

Incidentally Frederick Crane's first spoken word was Norm.

Can you tell Cheers is my all time favorite show?

My roommate in college was a "Norm", he was tall, lanky and a math major.

His favorite line was "I could."

"Norm, want a beer?"
"I could."

"Norm want a bong hit?"
"I could"

"Norm, want to get some food?"
"I could"

"Norm want to play Nintendo hockey?"
"I could"

"Norm, want to watch the playoffs"
"I could"

"Norm, she wants you, you want to get laid?"
"I could"

"Norm we're all going to <fill in a name of a bar>, want to join us?"
"I could"

"Norm the sink is full of your dirty dishes, can you clean the kitchen?"
"I could"

Ah, he was a good guy, harmless soul.
Every response was "I could" never a yes or a no.

The indecision was maddening


It's been a while since I've been in touch with Norm

Great list! Thanks for sharing. I think I'll go toss back a tall cold one to honor the almighty Norm!
