As Norm on Cheers
Norm Peterson, along with postman Cliff Clavin, were the two steadiest customers at Cheers. Peterson had a usual spot at the back corner of the bar. When he entered the bar, the employees and patrons would shout his name and either Coach or Woody would ask how life was treating him. Norm would typically respond with a witty quip about his less-than-perfect existence.On Saturday Night Live
Though Wendt was never a regular cast member on Saturday Night Live, he made several guest appearances in the 1990s as Bob Swerski, host of the show Superfans. The show parodies the appearance and actions of Chicago sports fans, cheering on "Da Bears" or "Da Bulls," and debating if former Bears coach Mike Ditka could defeat a hurricane.
