Here's a few, some of them may not be considered "serious episodes" though.

Death Begins At Forty (4-4)

A Marked Man (4-25)

The Longest Day (5-22)
After a medical checkup, the family finds out that Randy may have cancer.

Taps (6-24)

What a Drag (7-16)
When Tim falls through the gazebo he discovers a small bag of marijuana taped to the underside of the swing. Jill and Tim stake out their backyard from Wilson's to catch the culprit... to everyone's surprise, Brad is caught red-handed with the goods.

I didnt like the serious episodes at all I always wondered on such a funny show why they did these usually depressing episodes

"The Longest Day" episode in season 5 was the most serious episode of the series!!!
