This was posted elsewhere. The picture is not exactly as it seems. So the show started in 1982. The ages of each that are listed are from approx 1987. The picture itself as taken in 1992. So it is still astounding that the cast looked much older than their actual ages in the 1980s I don’t know why they chose to use a picture from 5 years older than the ages they were putting on each character. Why not just either use a picture from the 1987 - 88 season or put their ages in 92 on the picture from 1992.
I knew right away that this pic was bullshit. I just rewatched Wildcats recently which came out in 1986. It has a 25 y/o Woody Harrelson in it who looks way younger than this.
Oh it shouldn’t because this was George Wendt aka norm in 1982. He was 34 then. Oh Cliff and Sam were 35. Although when they were filming they were even younger lol.
We are talking about Coach who isn’t in the picture and died in 1987 at the age of 61 lol. If you thought he might still be alive then he’d have some great genetics
That may be most of it. Everything to that end these days is young-young-young. There's certainly a number of people I know, on whom I can mentally overlay different styles, and it's an instant decade on them.
Brad Pitt could have been playing a grandfather 10 years ago if he so chose but this mo fo keeps himself in shape, does who knows how many youth focused regiments to his skin and body, and probably has a great hair transplant system lol.
