Woody, Sam, Frasier and Rudolph...



From the "Cheers" episode "Thanksgiving Orphans":

Sam Malone: Oh, look at that will you? Nice Rudolph.
Woody Boyd: I made it myself.
Sam Malone: No kidding?
Woody Boyd: You know, Rudolph is my favourite guy in the Christmas song.
Sam Malone: Yeah.
Dr. Frasier Crane: Apparently then Woody, you're unaware that the story of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" is one of the most unrealistic and therefore potentially damaging in all of children's music. It gives them a horribly distorted view of reality.
Woody Boyd: Yeah, but you got to admit, it's easy to whistle.
Dr. Frasier Crane: No, I'm serious. First the other reindeer tease and then ostracise him. And then when his abnormality proves of service, they use him.
Dr. Frasier Crane: [Sam and Woody are speechless] But then do they allow him to play in their stupid reindeer games?
Sam Malone, Woody Boyd: Yes.
Dr. Frasier Crane: Oh, no, I know how the song goes. In fact, not only do Donner, Blitzen, et al, not love him and laugh out loud with glee, but they doubly dispise the bulbous-nosed little wimp.
Dr. Frasier Crane: [Frasier gets up] Well, I've got to be off. Happy Holidays!
[Frasier leaves, Sam and Woody are shocked]
