That is the only movie I remember him being in...maybe he did more but none that I know of! He seemed like a guy that was very content with his acting career.

Tilting a pint in his honor

"Pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
"Alright, but stop me at one... make that one-thirty."

"Can I pour you a beer, Mr. Peterson?"
"A little early, isn't it, Woody?"
"For a beer?"
"No, for stupid questions."

Still my favorite sitcom of all time. RIP, Norm.

It was a really great show.

Looking back at it now, Ted Danson has had an amazing career.

It's on Paramount Plus as well, which owns Pluto TV.
