Amazon.co.uk Review

For its fourth season, Cheers served up a new bartender. Following the death of Nicholas Colasanto, who had played Coach, the season premiere introduced Woody Boyd (Woody Harrelson), the Indiana hick who certainly didn't raise the bar's collective IQ but had his own brand of endearing goofiness. That episode, "Birth, Death, Love and Rice", also explained what happened at the end of season 3 when Sam (Ted Danson) chased Diane (Shelley Long) and Frasier (Kesley Grammer) to Italy in hopes of preventing their marriage. The end result is that Diane returns to work at the bar and resumes her sexually charged flirtation with Sam, and Frasier becomes a brooding presence always looking for a way to win her back. Jennifer Tilly guest-stars as one of Sam's ex-girlfriends who actually hits it off with the petulant psychiatrist, but stealing the show in the same episode ("Second Time Around") was Dr. Lilith Sternin (Bebe Neuwirth), in what was supposed to be a five-minute one-shot role. The impossibly buttoned-up Sternin was such a perfect match for Frasier that she later became a regular cast member and won two Emmys.

In other memorable episodes, Andy Andy (Derek McGrath) returns to terrorize Diane ("Diane's Nightmare"), the gang tries to turn the tables on Gary's Old Town Tavern in a bowling match ("From Beer to Eternity"), and Frasier sets up a night at the opera ("Diane Chambers Day"). In the three-part season finale ("Strange Bedfellows"), Sam begins dating a politician (Kate Mulgrew, later of Star Trek: Voyager) running for reelection. Diane decides to work for her opponent before taking a more drastic step, leading to Sam's memorable telephone call that served as a cliffhanger leading to season 5. Unlike previous seasons, the DVD set has no extras. --David Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheers - The Complete Fourth Season, 4 Jan 2006
By John Corbett - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This DVD release is an excellent addition to the growing 'Cheers' catalogue. The new characters of Woody (replacing Coach, due to the tragic death of the actor playing him) and Lilith added huge amounts to the show and became as strong and valued characters as the regulars.

This series comes with 26 episodes, the most of any release so far and rivalling most modern DVD releases. Sadly there aren't any extras, but with the consistently funny characters and sometimes surprising emotional depth, you can forgive the lack of extras easily, although I readily admit it would have been nice to have seen some interview footage with Woody Harrelson and Bebe Newirth to round out the interview footage on previous releases with the rest of the cast. That aside, this package represents excellent value for money (I picked mine up at a reduced price of £17.99) and stands well next to the other releases on my shelf.

Now all I want is for Paramount to hurry up and release the other 7 seasons over here!

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheers: A Place Where Everybody Knows Your Name, 16 Nov 2007
By Rama Rao "Rama" (Annandale, VA, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Cheers is a friendly Boston bar where everybody knows your name: For those of us who watched this show week after week during 1980s and later in reruns know that this is one of the greatest sitcoms ever made on TV. This DVD set contains all the 26 episodes of fourth season in four discs. This season makes two important additions to the series; following the death of Nicholas Colasanto (Coach), the season introduced Woody Boyd (Woody Harrelson), and Dr. Lilith Sternin (Bebe Neuwirth), who becomes match for Frasier. Later both win Emmy awards for their supporting roles. In this season we are presented with very interesting episodes such as when Sam visits Diane in a convent after she returns from Italy. Frasier tries to get over Diane and start dating Lilith. In other episodes, the gang tries to turn the tables on Gary's Old Town Tavern in a bowling match ("From Beer to Eternity"), and in the three-part season finale, Sam begins dating an older woman, a local politician (Kate Mulgrew) running for reelection, and Sam's memorable telephone call asking her to marry him, which many viewers remember. This set is reasonably priced and I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to enjoy a great sitcom.

This fourth season of Cheers carries on the excellent work of the writers and producers. And of course the actors who are brilliant, The introduction of Lillith and Woody really enhance the show.
