Must be just me but aside from the oldest guy, none of the faces from that Cheers shot look obviously older than I'd expect from their age. Which is not to say I disagree with the basic idea that the average 30yo today looks younger than someone the same age did 50 or 70 years ago, for all the various proposed reason here and in the article . It's that people are especially surprised by that Cheers cast post that surprises me...maybe I'd feel differently if I were <=30 myself!
- silisili 3y agoCliff Claven(the mailman, rear center) blew me away the most. I'd have pegged him for late 40s or 50s in that pic/show...
- wizofaus 3y agoI think that was the guy I meant - not "Coach", who was actually 58 when the show was filmed. But I know guys in real life in their 30s that arguably look older than I do (despite being 10+ years younger!), usually because of thinning or greying hair etc.
- siva7 3y agoTo me they look all at least 20 years older in that picture. Let’s say i would meet them in the wild today and they told me their age i would surely think they’re lying about their age.
