Shannon L. July 28, 2016 Share July 28, 2016 (edited) I've stopped watching The Big Bang Theory because it wasn't much fun for me anymore, but the first few seasons had some of the funniest stuff I'd seen on tv in a long time. These are just a few: Penny is the new neighbor and Sheldon can't deal with how messy her apartment is, so he takes it upon himself to clean it: Even funnier is the next day, when she confronts him: The first Christmas episode. Sheldon (who is very uncomfortable with physical contact) discovers that Penny has purchased gifts and has no clue what to get her. So, he gets her a variety of gift baskets in differnt sizes from different stores. He says that after he opens her gift , he'll fake "digestive distress" and run back and get what he thinks is the appropriate basket to match what she gives him: Sheldon at the DMV for his learner's permit: The more I think of the show, the more clips I think of.

Shannon L. August 23, 2016 Share August 23, 2016 (edited) I started watching the series The Sixties last night on Netflix and the first episode was about tv and how it changed during the decade. I'm too young to remember most of it, so I was surprised at the comedies that tackled such controversial issues. Laugh-In for one. I don't know that I could sit through an entire show of nothing but jokes (as opposed to skits that ran a few minutes long), but I was amused at what they showed. I was shocked, yet still laughed out loud, when they showed a young black artist (Sammy Davis, Jr.? I forget now), standing there, when a KKK member, in full white robe and hood, comes out, taps him on the shoulder and hands him a pen and paper for an autograph. Wow. They also interviewed Carol Burnett and she said that Tim Conway lived for cracking up Harvey Korman and that back stage, there were running bets--not on whether or not Harvey would laugh, but on how long it would take for him to start laughing. They showed clips of the dentist skit and Tim swears that Harvey wet himself trying not to laugh too hard.

Irlandesa September 17, 2016 Share September 17, 2016 So many good memories. Frasier's farce episodes always did it for me. Episodes like Ham Radio, The Ski Lodge and The Two Mrs. Cranes were my favorite types of episodes the show did. The creators were theater people who really knew how to stack the jokes, lies and misunderstandings to keep upping the hilarity. The Two Mrs. Cranes has a long sequence that you can start here: http://dai.ly/x3r49fh?start=546. Or even a little sooner as the whole episode is there. Daphne tells her ex-fiance, who has come to woo her, that she's married to Niles (who is actually separated from his wife, Maris.) As more characters enter the scene, new stories are invented to keep up the charade. But the scene I hold in most comic affection from Frasier is the "hot and foamy scene" from the "Are You Being Served" episode where Niles & Frasier find their scientist mother's journal talking about Niles & Frasier's personalities. It spurs Niles to take action and sign his divorce paper. I'll embed what's on YouTube, but I think it works a little better when begun about a minute earlier which you can see here. And the outakes from the scene here: 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45373-gut-busters-tvs-funniest-moments/page/2/#findComment-2575648
Shannon L. September 18, 2016 Share September 18, 2016 I just realized that these are all comedies (understandably), but dramas can have funny moments, too. For some reason The West Wing popped into my head. There are a ton of great moments in it that include, but not limited to: CJ having to chose which turkey the President will pardon. That one lives it's life on a beautiful farm and the other gets served for dinner. She can't handle that, so she asks President Bartlett to pardon the other one, as well, after the ceremony has been finished for a while. Which opens a fun discussion about how he can't really pardon a turkey. Josh, the deputy chief of staff, getting into a crazy political conversation on some online message board that he found that was dedicated to him. They went a little crazy and he kept digging himself into a deeper hole with them. Then CJ has to tell him to knock it off in her own, amusing way. Rumor has it that Sorkin based these scenes on TWOP threads. Josh taking over the press briefing after CJ has emergency root canal and thinking that it's ok to be sarcastic with the press by jokingly stating that the president has a secret plan to fight inflation. They didn't like being treated like idiots, so they ran with it. Then, he has to inform the president that the press is now expecting to hear about this secret plan soon. President Bartlett calling the Butterball Hotline. Sam realizing that he accidentally slept with a prostitute (she didn't charge him), then announcing it to someone who he didn't know was the Chief of Staff's daughter. and so on, and so on, and so on........ 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/45373-gut-busters-tvs-funniest-moments/page/2/#findComment-2575797

There was a kerfuffle over the writing credit of an episode that won an Emmy (Sorkin claimed he wrote the episode on his own; the writer pointed out this couldn't be true), and some of the posters dared to criticize Sorkin.
