Rebecca was like Jefferson Darcy from Married with Children: Perfect replacements that managed to skilfully replace their predecessors and made their shows funnier. Kirstie deserved the awards she received.
Funny you said that, because Ed O’Neill was nearly cast as Sam Malone, and Shelley Long ended up playing his ex-wife on “Modern Family.” Also, regarding your comparison: *1.* “Cheers” and “Married With Children” both lasted 11 seasons. *2.* Rebecca Howe and Jefferson D’Arcy both surpassed their predecessors in the number of seasons/episodes they appeared in. *3.* Diane Chambers and Steve Rhoades were pretentious snobs. Rebecca Howe and Jefferson D’Arcy were gold diggers.
Had to come back and rewatch after hearing the news. :( She gave me a lot of laughs but, Rebecca was always my favorite Kirstie character. So so funny. RIP.
R.I.P. Kirstie Alley (1951-2022)🕊 You were an amazing Actress and your legacy will live on in many years to come. Cheers is one of my favourite shows so the passing of Kirstie really broke my heart💔 I send my deepest condolences to the Alley family as well as Kirstie’s friends and loved ones during this very difficult time.
If Shelly stayed on cheers, it probably would have been over in a few years. Kirstie was a breath of fresh air and the show had new life. RIP our dear Miss Howe
The less said about her later years, the better. Kirstie Alley on "Cheers" was exceptionally funny. She could play the straight man one minute, and suddenly be a ball of hysterically crying jelly the next. RIP
Haven't watched Cheers in a long time. What immediately strikes me about Kirstie Alley now is how much she reminds me of Lauren Bacall. Her droll delivery, their facial features and even their voices bear a remarkable similarity. Funny how I had never seen that before. Rest in peace Kirstie, and thanks for helping brighten our lives a little bit with your remarkable talent.
If only she was in a film noir, " a type of crime film featuring cynical malevolent characters in a sleazy setting and an ominous atmosphere that is conveyed by shadowy photography and foreboding background music." Merriam dictionary Lets make a film.
I know most love Diane chambers but I thought the show got better when she left .. That Sam and Diane relationship had gotten old and it was toxic Af and she was a snobby know it all who made everything about herself .. With Rebecca Howe there were better storylines and it made the whole cast better plus she was hotter to me than Shelly long lol
I love this show. Shelly Long was amazing as Diane Chambers but somehow I love Rebecca a tad more. The whole cast was amazing. Woody, Norm, Cliff, Carla, Sam etc
@@TheSully00714 Wouldn't say unique since there are quite a few people who prefer Rebecca to Diane. Kirstie also received an Emmy and People's Choice for this role so I'd say she definitely was pretty well liked by most fans of the show, or at least a good portion of it.
@@kendallrivers1119 Agreed! i loved how they added more of them in the later episodes. they are both my favorite characters on the show. i only watched Cheers because of Fraiser and how he would bad mouth his wife and I was curious what their marriage was like.
I preferred her character in the beginning, when she was sharp-witted and sassy. It irked me that they devolved her into this whiny, insecure neurotic. I still prefer her to Diane, though.
I agree... loved Rebecca in the beginning. However, I liked both her and Diane for different reasons. Diane was sassy and sharp-witted. But her character had more depth. One minute, she was funny or endearing, the next annoying as hell. That's a great character. Disliking Diane is like disliking Cliff. Cliff was annoying as hell, but endearing.
Yep - me too. She was a little stiff at the beginning, but I think they really found the right balance for her by the middle of her first season. By the time Robin Colcord showed up at the beginning of season 8, she had become too much of a mess.
@@Murph_. I think both Diane and Rebecca were funny in very specific and different ways which made both great characters, but I have to say as great as Shelley was I just prefer Rebecca's character who imo was so much funnier when she became the biggest loser of them all. I do think though that Sam's relationship with Rebecca had far more depth and actually evolved unlike his one dimensional relationship with Diane. Sam and Rebecca started off with Sam just trying to get his hot boss into bed to actually developing a genuinely close friendship. Sam and Diane got stale by season 5.
Kirstie was a great actress, she always made me laugh, everything seemed to come so naturally to her! which made it that much funnier! RIP Kirstie you were great! You will be truly missed.
Aww she will be so remembered and missed I Had a chance to see him in a restaurant in Philly but not her She played a great character in all her movies I saw her in,and surely created a legacy for her self and family now she served her purpose and with the great father and she truly with the celebrity stars and will be missed on this planet of earth and nw she's in the heaven ❤, continually yo watch over us ,Cheers to you beautiful 😍 you love on
At the time of Cheers's run, I was married with a really beautiful sexy woman! no Other Woman turned my head but Kirstie. And she was so funny. Rip beautiful Kirstie.
I don't get all the weirdo scientology stuff, but whoo am I to judge a person's choices? All I know : that lady made me laugh a lot in my young years. My respect to a great actress
What a loss. Kirstie Alley was amazing. Her role as Rebecca is a wonderful example. RIP, Ms. Alley.
It was a weird feeling when she passed. Time flies by. I want the world before the internet back. I hate it now. Nothing funny about it.
Who else is here tonight watching her old scenes? RIP Kirstie! She was an excellent actress.
Me! I own the whole series of Cheers and will be plowing through it yet again. RIP Kirstie. 😢
Yep...I searched for this.
Here now ♥️ rest in eternal peace Kirstie, she was a beautiful soul ♥️
Me!!!!
Amazing woman and actor. One of the few respectable Hollywood people I actually admire who wasn’t afraid to speak her mind. She will be missed.
Michael Moore, Samuel Jackson, Matt Damon , and many others speak their true feelings.....they just don't excuse Trump's blatant racism !!
She will be missed!! What an amazing presence on the screen…
Rebecca was like Jefferson Darcy from Married with Children: Perfect replacements that managed to skilfully replace their predecessors and made their shows funnier. Kirstie deserved the awards she received.
Jefferson and Marcy were great! I want to go watch that now.

RIP, Kirstie Alley. I also enjoyed her acting in Scream Queens
Also, RIP Nicholas Colasanto (1924-1985), who deserves an equal commendation.
She elevated the humor of this show. It was already funny and then here comes Kirstie Alley as Rebecca. RIP
Rebecca Howe who Sam could not take his eyes off of.
Had to come back and rewatch after hearing the news. :( She gave me a lot of laughs but, Rebecca was always my favorite Kirstie character. So so funny. RIP.
_Cheers to ya, Kirstie!! You're now in God's Tavern where all the angels know your name_
Kirstie Alley was the best replacement I didn’t really care for Shelly long
R.I.P. Kirstie Alley (1951-2022)🕊
You were an amazing Actress and your legacy will live on in many years to come.
Cheers is one of my favourite shows so the passing of Kirstie really broke my heart💔
I send my deepest condolences to the Alley family as well as Kirstie’s friends and loved ones during this very difficult time.
If Shelly stayed on cheers, it probably would have been over in a few years. Kirstie was a breath of fresh air and the show had new life. RIP our dear Miss Howe
She was one of the best! RIP beautiful, funny soul. You will be missed.
She was so good. There was fear that she would never replace Shelley Long/Diane. She nailed it.
Yep...what's great is she was nothing like Diane.
She did not replace Diane... she is her own character and her own woman. And now she is in the arms of baby Jesus.
Rest In peace Kristie Alley join Leonard Nimoy in heave 💔💔😢😢🙏🙏
R.I.P. Kirstie Alley aka Rebecca Howe
(1951-2022)
Rip Kristie Alley!! ❤ Despite you being into your crazy religion, you were truly a talented funny actress.. ❤
The less said about her later years, the better. Kirstie Alley on "Cheers" was exceptionally funny. She could play the straight man one minute, and suddenly be a ball of hysterically crying jelly the next. RIP
I agree with you about her later years. She achieved international stardom in the miniseries North And South.
Nothing wrong with her later years. She had children and raised them well.
@@christineperez7562 She was an insane Scientologist nutjob.

Say what you will about her Politics/Religious beliefs in her later years, she was Genuinely funny, may she RIP
Who’s here after her passing
Immediately came here after the news of her passing, she was a great actress, RIP
I know most love Diane chambers but I thought the show got better when she left ..

My condolences to her friends and family
Rest In Peace Kirstie Alley
How can you honestly make a video of Rebecca Howe funny moments, without the cigarette scene? That is the crown jewel of them all!
That & I'm too STUPID to live. Rebecca Howe & Robin Colcord.
Didn’t you notice this is only part 1?
Rest In Peace Beautiful One ⚘️ ⚘️⚘️
I love this show. Shelly Long was amazing as Diane Chambers but somehow I love Rebecca a tad more. The whole cast was amazing. Woody, Norm, Cliff, Carla, Sam etc
Unique take
Show got better in its later seasons which is very rare
Don't forget Frasier and Lilith! The Cranes certainly added so much to the comedy.
