Remembering George Wendt: A Comedy Legend

George Wendt, the beloved American actor and comedian known for his iconic role as Norm Peterson on the hit NBC sitcom “Cheers,” passed away at the age of 76 at his home.

Beyond his role on “Cheers,” Wendt continued to showcase his talent in various projects, including guest appearances on shows like “Saturday Night Live” and films such as “Fletch” and “Gung Ho.” He also ventured into theater, taking on roles in Broadway productions like “Hairspray” and “Elf the Musical.”
