Classic TV Moments

[Breez]

While digging a few days ago I found What's Happening, the complete series box-set. I forgot how many hilarious moments that show had. Just thought I'd share one of it's funniest. Feel free to share any moments you might consider classic & hilarious, from any other sitcoms. Enjoy!!

How many seasons/boxes does the entire BOX have?

3 seasons (1976-1979) on 9 discs, 65 episodes. I was thinking it was more seasons than that. I only paid $10 for it, not a bad deal.

alfred hitchcok presents: the episode where the con woman tricks the elderly black dude into burying her in the prison graveyard with a body and then digging her up hours later so she can escape. as she's waiting for the guy to come get her, she lights a match inside the coffin to pass the time and discovers to her horror that the dead body in the casket with her is that of her friend and that she is trapped there forever. then she starts screaming and they cut to a peaceful shot of the surface of the grave.





that shit gave me serious nightmares.

I was never feeling Fresh Prince of Bel Air; I found it really tedious. Everytime it was on I couldn't wait for it to be over and to watch whatever dumb shit was next.

On some "very special episode" shit, the "My Name Is Alex" episode of Family Ties, particularly the second half-hour when Michael J. Fox talks to the psychiatrist. Pretty heady stuff, and very well done.

I don't remember that, but you reminded me of Tom Hanks the alcoholic uncle drinking vanilla extract or some weird shit like that out of the pantry.











Cosby Show


-when they made Theo go back and apologize to the girl at the burger joint for making fun of her.





-when Vanessa brings home the older man boyfriend and Cliff says something to the effect of "he may be filet mignon but you served him to us on a garbage pail lid"

I loved the "very special episode" episodes. There was one I remember on Family Matters where Urkel got drunk by accident and Rachel saved him by her tightrope skills. Oh, and it did give us this.

It won't let me embed that, but it'll allow me to embed another classic TV moment of mine.











Andy Kaufman is the greatest of all time.
