I was thinking about this the other day, and off the top of my head, I can recall three instances/examples of songs that name/mention sitcom characters.
1) So Fresh and Clean by Outkast:
"I'ma show you how to wild out like Jack Trippa"
2) Summer Girls by LFO:
"Michael J. Fox was Alex P. Keaton"
3) Gettin' Jiggy With It by Will Smith:
"women used to tease me
give it to me now nice and easy
since I moved up like George and Wheezey"
Can you think of any more examples?

Alicia Keys made a song almost two years ago, can't recall the title, but she mentioned "Florida and James" from Good Times. I think she mentioned others as well.

"Jan Brady" - The Lunachicks
"The Revolution Will not be Televised" - Gill Scot Heron
"Re-Run" - The Judys...
"Tiki God" by The Presidents Of The United States Of America:
When Bobby Brady found the idol in the rubble
Had no idea it would cause so much trouble
When Greg tried to throw it back in the ocean
There was a rumble, an awful commotion
Don't ask me how, but the tiki found Bobby
He thought that idol was some Hawaiian hobby
Turned out the god was mean and vicious
Didn't respond to Bobby's three wishes

Like a Sunday In Salem (The Amos & Andy Song) - Gene Cotton
There was a lights out television show
There was Amos and Andy on the radio
And a man on a hill runnin' round don't you know
Sayin' "ev'rybody here got to go"
Sayin' "ev'rybody here got to go"
The Andy Griffith Show - The Bellamy Brothers
On the Andy Griffith Show, Ange is letting Otis out of jail
And Gomers helping Goober drive the nails
Oh and Barney is looking for his bullet
You'd better watch out for your toes
I wish life was like the Andy Griffith Show

"1970 Something"- Daisy Duke
See if you can find the mistake within these lyrics:
19 Something by Mark Wills
I saw Star Wars at least 8 times
Had the pac-man pattern memorized
And I've seen the stuff they put inside
Stretch Armstrong
I was Roger Staubach back in my back yard
Had a shoebox full of baseball cards
And a couple of Evil Knevil scars
On my right arm
Well, I was a kid when Elvis died
And my mama cried
Chorus:
It was 1970- something
In the world that I grew up in
Farrah Fawcett hair-do days
Bell bottoms and 8-track tapes
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh, man did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
It was 1970-something
It was the dawning of a new decade
When we got our first microwave
And Dad broke down and finally shaved
Those sideburns off
I took the stickers off of my Rubix cube
Watched MTV all afternoon
My first love was Daisy Duke
In them cut off jeans
A Space Shuttle fell out of the sky
And the whole world cried
Chorus:
It was 1980-something
In the world that I grew up in
Skating rinks and Black Trans Ams
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh, man did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
It was 1980-something
Now I got a mortgage and an SUV
But all this responsibility
Makes me wish sometimes
Sometimes....
chorus:
It was 1980-something
In the world that I grew up in
Skating rinks and Black Trans Ams
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now I can see me
And oh, man did I look cheesy
But I wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
It was 1980-something
1970-something
Aw, it was 19-Something

Almost, The line Had the Pac Man pattern memorized is an error. That game was introduced in 1980 and therefore the pattern couldn't have been memorized in the 70's as the song suggests.
