Cheers

Previously known as the Bull & Finch Pub, Cheers Beacon Hill rose to stardom in a classic Hollywood story that happened in Boston. Three producers seeking to create a sitcom about a neighborhood bar chose Boston because sports and politics were hot issues in local watering holes. One afternoon they went into the Bull & Finch Pub, where they met bartender Eddie Doyle, and after a beer, burger, and conversation with him, they felt good about the place. They visited half a dozen other Boston bars, then returned to the pub and declared, "This is the place!" They created the show and named it Cheers. The show premiered on September 30, 1982, and became one of the top-rated shows in TV history.
