Sam Malone's drinking problem (which led him to buy the bar Cheers) soured his career as a pitcher. When a young teaching assistant, Diane Chambers is left by her fianceé, she takes a job waitressing at the bar, leading to a rocky, on-again, off-again relationship with Sam. The bar where everybody knows your name is a home away from home for Sam's old Coach, know-it-all Cliff, bitter waitress Carla, and regular Norm, owner of the largest bar tab. Contains the entire 22 original episodes from the first season of Cheers.
