During the episode, Harrelson and Will Arnett introduce Danson to a new term: BDE, which stands for big d*** energy. The pair alluded that Danson was famous for having this type of energy on the set of Cheers.
“BDE, have you guys heard of it?” Harrelson asks. Danson then responds with a simple “no.” Harrelson then explains: “Big d— energy,” he said before pointing at Danson and saying “he has that.”
Woody’ Harrelson’s Absence From ‘Cheers’ Reunion Explained
The 2024 Emmy Awards took place this past January. The award show was star-studded as usual. It also included a host of reunions of famous television shows. One of those shows was the classic hit sitcom Cheers. But one notable cast member was missing. Woody Harrelson, who plays Woody Boyd on the show, was not in attendance for the reunion.
With Harrelson, playing such an important role in the sitcom’s success, many wondered why the Cheers star wasn’t present for the reunion. However, Emmys executive producers Jesse Collins and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay told the Hollywood Reporter that it was just a scheduling issue.
“Woody Harrelson couldn’t make Cheers because he’s in a play [Ulster American in London],” they said. “So there were a few people where there were just logistical challenges. But we were lucky to get so many people who were willing to participate.”
Darius Rucker Reveals How Harrelson Saved His Life
Harrelson has been an actor for decades. So of course he has made a myriad of friends in the industry as well as shared some unforgettable memories with them. Fellow actor Darius Rucker recently shared a story of how Harrelson saved him from drowning when he went to visit him in Hawaii.
“I’ll never forget this. He told me what to do, and I was fine. I’m a good swimmer, but then I dove in the water and I opened my eyes and all I saw was no bottom, fish. All I saw was a bunch of fish, and I panicked. Then, I got caught up in this current that was just killing me,” Rucker Shared.
“It was probably a good 40 minutes of trying to get out. And then finally, I looked at him, and this is so vivid to me, I looked at him, I said, ‘Man, we both don’t have to die out here today.’ I was like, ‘You’ve got to let me go.’ And just like Woody from ‘Cheers,’ he looked at me and said, ‘Not on my watch.'”
