Recurring Characters

Cheers had several memorable recurring characters over the years. This category is a gathering place for them. Here, for the purposes of this wiki, a recurring character is a character that was not part of the cast, but appeared in at least two distinct episodes (not a two-part episode), either as part of a storyline, or for distinct purposes.
