I hate when sitcoms get serious or gradually turn into soap operas. Like the mantra was at Seinfeld's writing offices:

 

NO HUGS. NO LESSONS LEARNED.

 

Keep it funny, goddammit. I can get drama elsewhere.

Jessie tweaked out on caffeine pills. SBTB.

I'M SO EXCITED! I'M SO EXCITED! I'm so...I'm so...scared.

 

How about that episode of Full House when D.J. becomes anorexic so she can lose weight in time for the big pool party.

WKRP In Cincinnatti- the episode where the 7 kids got trampled at The Who show at Riverfront...

 

Webster- when he burnt down the apartment with his chemistry set...

 

What sitcoms had the most "V.S.E's"? My guess would be either All in the Family (which were usually very good) or Diff'rent Strokes (Which were usually preachy and sappy)

 

What about sitcoms that had NONE? Afforementioned Seinfeld. Cheers? I don't remember any VSE's of Cheers. Any others?

Too bad Blossom never had a VSE where Six becomes a porn star and changed her last name to Tynine

total aside

 

VH1 did a where are they now with Blossom and Six

 

Jenna Von Oy is a country singer now..or trying to be at least

 

Mayim or whatever Blossom's real name is some kind of scientist and leads a jewish chorus group

 

Six held up better looks wise than Blossom

Kinda makes you wonder what the hell her boyfriend (Vinnie ?) was thinking when Six was RIGHT THERE and seemingly ready to jump just about any guy...

 

SBTB had a few "very special" eps, although the only one I can remember (besides the caffeine pills of course) was the "don't do drugs" ep. I'm pretty sure that every Peter Engel show had at least one VSE each year. Hell, even the hella-bad One World had a couple of those...

Fresh Prince of Bel-Air: Will's father walks out on him again.

 

Family Matters: It was some episode dealing with racism that was in school, can't remember much about it though.

Family Matters: The guns in school one where Laura's friend gets shot

 

 

And the Kenny Dies episode of South Park was hilarious for the simple reason that everyone in the show is mourning his death while everyone watching at home is completly desensitized to it from seeing him die in every other episode in the most brutal ways imaginable.

Damn... that the episode I was thinking of, Fook. I just couldn't remember whether it was racism or something else.

 

Goddamn, my mind is getting bad in this old age...

What about the VSE of A Different World, dealing with racism when Ron and Dwayne ended up in a brawl with white guys after they vandalised their car with racial slurs. That's one I'll never forget.

I think A Different World also had a VSE dealing with date rape. I seem to recall that when it comes to listening to a girl's body or her mouth, always listen to her mouth.

 

While this is good advice, which everyone should already know, I don't know if it should have been Sinbad as the one telling us.

On The Jeffersons, Louise, aka Weezie, witnessed a murder and I think the murderer comes looking for her and she somehow fights him off.

the Kenny Dies episode of South Park.

Hey, that would make my favourite VSE of Full House the one where Jesse loses the mullet... :headbang:

argh...I loathe VSE's. I don't want to see that stuff on sitcoms.

 

I think the only sitcom where VSE's were ok was All In The Family. But All In The Family wasn't a typical sitcom.

Exactly...and All in Family never really had "VSE" show...it was just always important issues.

She must have threatened to sing to him...

I think it was mandatory for every sitcom in the '80s to dedicate at least one episode to the plight of the homeless.

 

Damn you for ruining Mamma's Family!...

Full House had the child abuse one- that episode kicked ass.

 

Family Matters had one where Laura tried to start a class on black history (I think) and someone spraypainted the 'n' word on her locker. Mama Winslow then told a story about checking out books from the library and they ended up learning black history. I think.
