The Magnificent Seven and Cheers

 


Favorite movie of the Cheers gang. Diane Chambers Day playing now as I read a book and a favorite scene is when they are at the opera and when the lights go down Norm cracks open a beer. Nice sound effect. Clip below. Diane of course mentions The Seven Samurai when talking about The Magnificent Seven. In another reference in a different episode, Cliff and Norm mention that they once rented The Magnificent Ambersons, thinking it was a sequel to The Magnificent Seven, but quickly realized their mistake.

The Cheers episode "Diane Chambers Day" (season 4, episode 22) revolves around the bar denizens being invited to watch The Magnificent Seven, and ends with them singing an a cappella version of the theme.


:47. 1982 TBS promo. I remember The Magnificent Seven always being on TBS on the weekends.
