This is the episode of CHEERS David Isaacs and I wrote that featured the "Wang Chung" line. Of all the episodes we wrote, this is one of my favorites. And I learned recently that James Hues, the lead singer of Wang Chung, said in an interview that his kids were more impressed that Wang Chung was mentioned on CHEERS than in the music. How cool is that???
Some background on the episode: It's the only show we ever did where we wrote no outline. That was the exercise. We had the idea of doing Frasier's bachelor party and wanted it to be stream-of-consciousness, go in whatever direction it wanted, and have the freedom to go off on bar talk riffs. This was the result. Everybody have fun tonight...
