Star Trek’s Cheers Casting Bridge

Star Trek and Cheers shared a surprisingly strong link because both productions filmed on the Paramount lot, with "Cheers" using Stage 25 in Hollywood. That closeness helped create several actor crossovers, including Kelsey Grammer appearing as Captain Morgan Bateson in "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and actress Kirstie Alley appearing in "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" before joining "Cheers."
