| Biography (TMDB): | Shelley Long (born August 23, 1949) is an American actress, singer, and comedian. For her role as Diane Chambers on the hit sitcom Cheers, she received five Emmy nominations, winning in 1983 for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. She also won two Golden Globe Awards for the role. She reprised her role as Diane Chambers in three episodes of the spin-off Frasier, for which she received an additional guest star Emmy nomination. She has starred in several films including Night Shift (1982), Irreconcilable Differences (1984), The Money Pit (1986), Outrageous Fortune (1987), Hello Again (1987), Troop Beverly Hills (1989), The Brady Bunch Movie (1995), A Very Brady Sequel (1996), and Dr. T & the Women (2000). While working on Cheers, she continued to appear in motion pictures. In 1984, she was nominated for a Best Leading Actress Golden Globe for her performance in Irreconcilable Differences. She also starred in the comedies The Money Pit and Outrageous Fortune. She was offered lead roles in Working Girl, Jumpin' Jack Flash, and My Stepmother Is an Alien but did not accept them. She was also offered the role of Mary, the mother in Steven Spielberg's E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, but turned it down because she had already signed on to appear in Night Shift. She left the series Cheers in 1987, but returned for the 200th Anniversary Special in 1990. She then returned as Diane in the last season (1992-1993), for which she picked up another Emmy nomination. She later reprise her role as Diane in several episodes of the Kelsey Grammer spinoff series Frasier, for which she was nominated for another Emmy Award. She appeared as Carol Brady in the 1995 hit film The Brady Bunch Movie which is a campy take of the popular television show. In 1996, she reprised the role in A Very Brady Sequel which had modest success, and again in the 2002 television film sequel—The Brady Bunch in the White House. She had a recurring role on the popular ABC sitcom Modern Family as DeDe Pritchett, the ex-wife of Jay Pritchett. |

0:04 - Shelley pulls an all-white from the pack, but we don't see the lightup (or any drags), just holding and stubbing out. 0:31 - Gaby lights a short, filtered cig in the principal's office and takes a drag before it's grabbed away. 0:35 - Gaby bums a cig from two other girls who are smoking. She lights up and takes one drag-exhale before her friend scolds her and takes it away. |
Irreconcilable Differences
|
smokingsides
Shelley smokes in at least five scenes and looks drop dead gorgeous in some, inhaling without appearing to release it. Sharon extracts her cigarette from a case, accepts a light, and takes a subsequent drag with a sultry exhale that steals the show. |
Night Shift
|
smokingsides
She smokes in a few scenes, but does an annoying sound when she exhales. there is a short scene where a very cute girl uses a 10 holder in the background, much better than the Shelley Long scenes! |
The Money Pit
|
smokingsides
Only one short scene where she steals a smoke, feeling it's time for one after quitting for a while. She's just started again after quitting for five years, but is disappointed that the cigarette she is offered is a filter-tip. |
Troop Beverly Hills
|
