Wing Men

'Look, up in the air. It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a high-flying comedy - where the laughs always arrive on schedule!'

The 1990's was truly a great decade for sitcoms. Some the highest rated, and critically acclaimed shows aired over the 10 years.  Some of them included; Friends, Mad About You, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Everybody Loves Raymond and Will & Grace.  Frasier all made it's debut in the 1990's, shortly after Cheers said goodbye.  Both Frasier and Cheers were created by David Angell, Peter Casey and David Lee.

Another sitcom by the three writes and producers made it debut in 1990 and ran through 1997.  Wings didn't get the critical acclaim that Cheers and Frasier received, but it was a decent show and better, than most gave it credit for.  Like their other shows, Wings had a defined work setting, in this case a small airport in Nantucket, as well as a solid group of characters and actors to portray them.

Maybe one of the reasons Wings didn't get the same attention as Cheers and Frasier were because it's two male leads were played by two hot, ad relatively young actors.  Both Tim Daly and Steven Weber were in their early thirties when the show premiered.  Daly and Weber's looks were also certainly used by the writers frequently.  There were plenty of shirtless shots, and even implied 'nude' scenes, which is one of the reasons I occasionally tuned in.

I recently caught the episode, Death Becomes Him, on one of my retro channel.  The episode included the scene I've capped here.  Although I've featured both Weber and Daly on FH before, I thought it time to take a deeper dive into their sitcom skin baring scenes, as well as their nude scene in other shows and movies.  Check out my findings on FH HERE:
