Happy Birthday, Shelley Long! From making us laugh as the delightfully intellectual Diane Chambers on "Cheers," to perfectly spoofing Carol Brady’s wholesome charm in "The Brady Bunch Movie," you've kept audiences grinning through decades. Seriously, your comedic timing deserves its own standing ovation!Just know whenever someone debates literature at a bar or cheerfully proclaims Marcia's perfection in parody form, they're channeling lessons taught by you. Today we celebrate not only another fantastic year for an exceptional talent but also younger generations realizing—yes indeed—mom jeans and gentle lectures really can be hilariously timeless. Here's to more laughs ahead!
