How many times have we seen best friends or casual friends get mad at each other? Too many. Here are some:

GOOD TIMES: Willona Woods and Florida Evans. Willona refuses to discuss sex with her 12 year old daughter. Florida gets mad at Willona for not doing what is right.


I LOVE LUCY: Lucy Ricardo and Ethel Mertz. Lucy as well as Ricky and Fred get mad at Ethel when she gets a "big head" while in her hometown, so they get back at her by ruining Ethel's solo performance in a show.

Lucy and Ethel get mad at each other in the episode when it's Ethel's birthday. Lucy buys a pair of pants that Ethel wouldn't be caught dead wearing and insults Lucy's taste.


The Ricardos and the Mertzes get mad abt a lease and so the Ricardos try to break the lease by causing so much noise and commotion so the Mertzes will kick them out.

The Mertzes get mad at the Ricardos (on purpose) because they think that Ricky and Lucy should live in a fancy penthouse instead of their brownstone apt. so they figure by causing a fight, the Ricardos will leave.

The Mertzes get mad when Ricky forgets to buy two train tickets to New York for their return trip from Hollywood. Then Ethel gets mad at Lucy when she sees Lucy with her hand inside of Fred's jacket while he is sleeping.

Also Ethel gets mad at Lucy over a washing machine that Lucy sells her and
then the washer goes haywire and she wants her money back. They kept
shoving the washer back on each other, it was pretty funny.

"I Love Lucy"-Lucy and Ricky give Fred and Ethel a brand new TV for their anniversary or something, then get mad at Ricky when he tries to fix it and ends up breaking it, then Lucy gets mad at them for getting mad at Ricky, and to get back at them, Fred breaks their TV, and the Ricardos thretean to sue the Mertzes or something, and they all wind up in court.

Also the one where the 2 couples buy a diner and go into buissness together, with Lucy & Ricky greeting all the customers; Ethel doing all the cooking; and Fred doing-something (I forget what). The 2 couples get mad at each other, they split the diner in two; with Fred and Ethel naming their half "A BIG HUNK OF AMERICA" and Lucy and Ricky keeping the name "A LITTLE BIT OF CUBA" for theirs. I forget how they get back together.

"The Honeymooners"-Ralph got mad at Ed numerous times.

"Friends"-Ross and Rachel; when they kept breaking up, getting back together, breaking up, getting back together,:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: ....and took all the humor out of their relationship. It was funny the first couple times, but by the 90th time it wasn't funny anymore.

also on "I Love Lucy" once, Mrs. Trumbell complained to Ethel about the Ricardos baby. When Ethel said something to her, she kept telling people about it over and over and over until Lucy got tired of hearing it. When she said something to Ethel, Ethel got mad at her.

On "The Dick Van Dyke show" once, Milly got mad at Laura when Laura became friends with the new neighbor.

There was one episode of Rosanne and it was one of the seasons where she was working in the coffee shop at the mall. Leon was retiring as the manager because he got another job or something like that and Roseanne and her coworker/friend Bonnie got in this huge fight about who should be manager then Roseanne doesn't end up speaking to her. Later you find out neither of them did and they were closing the coffee shop for good:( That turned out to be a sad episode.

There is an episode from the first season of Amen called "Casting the First Stone". At a prayer meeting, the choir director Lorenzo brags about a "moment of weakness" he had with a lady in the church, complete with "crimson skyrockets". The members try to figure out who the mystery woman is, right when the church is to host an important interfaith dinner. This dinner has leaders of other churches as guests of honor. The church members get angry with each other (popping balloons, slashing cakes and dumping flatware on the table!) and the choir strangles each other in front of the other church leaders (:lol:)!

Of course, everyone forgives each other. I just thought that ep was hilarious. The poor reverend was the only one acting normal and trying desperately to keep everyone's hostility under wraps from the other church leaders. :lol:

Yes, Laura deliberately left out the mustard in her avocado dip recipe~!
That's a great episode, Rob and Laura hear Millie and Jerry complain about them on the kids' intercom and Jerry says: "Laura wouldn't do that. Pause
Rob would do that!"

I love that one.

Irene, the one where the girls make fun of each other at the table is because they thought one or the other was having sex with Jack.

It is in the last season. It is the second to the last episode of the series. Lucy enters a flower/garden contest and it is her first time. Lucy's friend Grace (her neighbor) has won the contest previously. It is hilarious just seeing Lucy going crazy on the lawnmower, going in circles and then she ends up riding all over town with it. :lol:

Last night's King of Queens episode had the Heffernans (really Carrie) upset that their good friends bought a vacation home. The Heffernans felt they "carried" their friends and that was the reason they were able to afford their vacation home, thus, causing a rift when they spent the weekend at the vacation home.
