I recently saw the whole 10th episode of cheers. Do you think Lilith Sternin Crane have Aspergers syndrome??
I thought so!! Because she has an monotone voice, troubles with her emotions and feelings, she says shes not good at making friends, shes honest and blunt but intelligent, she wears the same hairdo and clothes, gets upset because she misunderstand people and shes socially awkward. What do you think?

And what do you think about Lilith?? I love her and her actress Bebe Neuwirth she is much like Lilith herself!! :D

Lilith Sternin Crane was a fictional character portrayed by a very talented actress, singer, and dancer: Beatrice "Bebe" Neuwirth.

Her character of Lilith Sternin, while emotionally repressed, did not regularly exhibit any of the characteristics of AS as listed in the DSM.

From the Wikipedia article:

Wikipedia wrote:
"Like Lilith, Neuwirth admits being shy and socially awkward with limited interpersonal skills. She is not easy in groups, and the thought of a cocktail party where she must meet a lot of new people strikes terror in her soul. Neuwirth is a very cerebral intellectual, but although she may appear unapproachable and radiates callousness behind a wall of reserve, she is a loving, funny and giving person."


So ... while the actress she may seem somewhat Aspie-ish, there is no reason to claim that she is one of us.

All I know is, I love both Lilith AND Bebe Neuwirth. Always have.

Lilith delivered some of the best "zingers" on the show. And Bebe Neuwirth must be one of the most talented actresses on the plant -- mostly in terms of her singing and dancing abilities. She had a run in the musical "Chicago" on Broadway, and from what I saw of her on tv one day during that run, it must have been a spectacular show.

Cheers was one of my favourite shows back in the 80s and 90s. It still is. :)
