Tv shows where the characters mention another tv show, whether it is another sitcom, drama, game show, soap, etc.

A reference was made abt SANFORD & SON when Redd Foxx was mentioned.

THREE'S COMPANY: During a toast, the threesome said, HAPPY DAYS, GOOD TIMES, LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE. Although Jack and Janet were not really naming tv shows, Chrissy said LHOTP because of the mention of good times and happy days.

8 Simple Rules - Did a Threes Company Parody
Boy Meets World - Mentioned Full House in the pilot episode

Family Matters - A Joke is made that Carl looks like the father from the Fresh Prince

The Big Bang Theory - Mentions Scrubs, Star Trek and others throughout its first season.

Friends - All hum the Odd Couple theme in a season 1 episode.

Many more shows but of course, the biggest shows on TV to do that would be SNL and Family Guy!

"Wings" has been mentioned a couple of times on Monk, which is kind of an inside joke, because Tony Shalhoub used to play Antonio on "Wings".

On an episode of "Full House", Jessie and Joey were fighting, and Jessie said "Maybe there are too many dads here. Haven't you ever seen that show My Two Dads? Two is all you need."

Andrea

THE KING OF QUEENS-once Doug dreamed he was in "THE HONEYMOONERS" with Doug as Ralph, Carrie as Alice, and Deacon as Norton.

QUANTUM LEAP-once when Sam was in 1980, they showed someone watching "MAGNUM, P.I." (and both shows were produced by Donald P. Bellisario)

KING OF QUEENS: During that dream sequence Treky above mentions, they also did THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS. :lol: With two characters on that soap making an appearance.

Fresh Prince - and old neighbor thought Phil looked like "the dad on Family Matters", and also mentioned The Cosby Show numerous times.

Mad About You - they mentioned TV shows numerous times. In the season 3 finale, they had The Nanny, Saved by the Bell, and Baywatch theme playing in the background. I'm pretty sure they also mentioned how Friends is such an overrated show in one episode.

Roseanne - did the Gilligan's Island parody in the season 7 finale. Also mentioned how they should go over to Saturday Night Live to see when they're ending their sketches (:lol:). I know they also mentioned Full House and The Nanny once

Diff'rent Strokes and Facts of Life--both have mentioned The Brady Bunch

Married...with Children--has Al flipping channels and the FOL theme song comes on! :lol:

On an episode of Laverne & Shirley, Sea Hunt, Oh Susanna! and

Other examples of shows that not only mention but include guest appearances
of characters from other shows include: Gilligan's Land on both ALF and Baywatch. An episode of Boy Meets World featured
three of The Monkees (Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones and Peter Tork) and Dave
Madden of The Partridge Family. Boss Hogg appears on Alice.
And Superman (George Reeves) appeared on I Love Lucy.

L&S also mentioned Hazel in a California episode when they had to clean Sonny(I think)'s apt in a hurry--"Boy, all those years of watching Hazel paid off!" :lol:

ALICE: Mel constantly referred to Charlie's Angels. He even wore a shirt of Farrah Fawcett.

ROSEANNE: They did a parody of Giligan's Island and some of the actors appeared as their Gilligan character on the same episode. :rofl: I remember it was Gilligan, Ginger (Tina Louise!shocker!!!), and the Professor.

On "NewsRadio", Dave mentioned a few times that he loves "Green Acres." He's also mentioned that being forced to read a book for school caused him to miss an entire semester of "Cheers."

On "Ned & Stacey", Ned was watching the television and laughing. He thens says "Wings is such a zany show!" That's an inside joke, because Ned was played by Thomas Haden Church, Lowell from Wings. Ned has also mentioned that he taped a "very special episode" of Boy Meets World.

The Nanny mentioned tons of shows over its 6 seasons - I know they mentioned The Mod Squad and Cagney & Lacey in 1 episode. They mentioned Facts of Life a few times as well.

Fresh Prince - and old neighbor thought Phil looked like "the dad on Family Matters",

I'm surprised by that, because networks seem to not like their shows mentioning shows on other networks that were on at the same time.

Fresh Prince - and old neighbor thought Phil looked like "the dad on Family Matters", and also mentioned The Cosby Show numerous times.

Mad About You - they mentioned TV shows numerous times. In the season 3 finale, they had The Nanny, Saved by the Bell, and Baywatch theme playing in the background. I'm pretty sure they also mentioned how Friends is such an overrated show in one episode.

And Irene, I loved that scene in Three's Company where they all mention the different TV shows - I just watched in on my DVD a few days ago, and I thought of that immediately as well!
The Fresh Prince - that was my man Gregory Sierra (:eyes:) who said about Uncle Phil - "ain't you the guy from Family Matters?" That was too funny. :rofl:

Sister, Sister mentioned The Cosby Show, Full House, South Central (!), I Love Lucy, Three's Company and Savannah. They also did a spoof of The Brady Bunch. :lol:

The Fresh Prince - that was my man Gregory Sierra (:eyes:) who said about Uncle Phil - "ain't you the guy from Family Matters?" That was too funny. :rofl:
:brent
I can hear him saying that. :lol:

:brent
I can hear him saying that. :lol:
I loved that line. GS' delivery just destroyed me. :rofl:

I loved that line. GS' delivery just destroyed me. :rofl:
Yes, you are so right. It was the delivery that made it hilarious. Man, I swear, I can hear him saying it as I type this. :rofl:

Wings mentioned I Love Lucy. Antonio had never watched it before, but became hooked during an ILL marathon. LOL Murphy Brown mentioned Mary Tyler Moore. Murphy didn't want to a story on a famous hooker, and Miles told her, "This isn't The Mary Tyler Moore Show! You can't just say, 'Oh, Mr. Grant, I don't want to do this story!' There's no studio audience out there laughing at every cute thing you say!" *He points to where the studio audience is* LOL

KING OF QUEENS: During that dream sequence Treky above mentions, they also did THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS. :lol: With two characters on that soap making an appearance.
yea; I was gonna say that; but I was too tired.

They also parodied an old TV movie called "BRIANS SONG".

Yes, you are so right. It was the delivery that made it hilarious. Man, I swear, I can hear him saying it as I type this. :rofl:
Example 681,027,204 of great minds thinking alike. ;) :rofl:

Yeah, that was definitely a great line from the show. I guess Family Matters made a crack at Fresh Prince, so Fresh Prince made one right back.

And Kristen, I forgot about that MTM joke on Murphy Brown. There was also another I remember, where Jim says something about Rhoda, how she got married and it ruined the whole show. Can't remember the exact quote, though.

Family Guy - made many references to Mr. Belvedere
Stewie: "I'm trying to watch Mr. Belvdere!"

and when Stewie got really annoyed and couldn't hear the TV, he begins screaming out the show's theme song lyrics :lol:

Family also mentioned "Family Feud"

King of the Hill - Lucky made many game show references about "Family Feud"

Moesha - the father made a reference about the Cosby Show and they even did a follow up dream sequence of imagining the family as the Huxtables.

Growing Pains - Ben said that they had tickets of them going to see the Cosby Show, the #1 show on TV!"

Here's my favorite. On the Soprano's Junior thought he was Larry David on Curb Your Enthusiasm. :lol:

Family Guy mentioned The Incredible Hulk...I think Peter played the theme on the piano or something, and then at the end of the ep, they showed Stewie trying to hitch a ride to the Lonely Man theme just like David Banner did at the end of every ep.

On SEINFELD, Susan told George to hurry up because MAD ABOUT YOU was starting.

Of course this means Susan & George were watching a fictional sitcom about a couple living in New York featuring a character who, as was learned in an episode of MAY, was sub-letting his old apartment to their friend Kramer.

How does that happen?

Matt Leblanc (Joey) was a regular on "Days of Our Lives" (On "Friends", that is!). He even had a DOOL Cast party!

Let's see ...

On Family Matters when Eddie's grandmother came to visit and reminisce about the old times (from about 1990; she flew a fighter jet IIRC) Eddie mentioned he'd rather watch The Wonder Years. Guess who showed up as a guest speaker at his school the next day! :lol:

Many shows have been mentioned on Perfect Strangers, especially in the episode "Couch Potato" in which the cousins got cable.

Yeah, that was definitely a great line from the show. I guess Family Matters made a crack at Fresh Prince, so Fresh Prince made one right back.

And Kristen, I forgot about that MTM joke on Murphy Brown. There was also another I remember, where Jim says something about Rhoda, how she got married and it ruined the whole show. Can't remember the exact quote, though.

Oh, yeah. That was when Murphy announced that she was pregnant, and Jim said it was the worst idea since Rhoda's wedding. I loved that joke, hehe.

I don't know if anyone else has mentioned this, but Golden Girls made fun of Designing Women a couple times. Sophia called Blanche's southern accent phony, and then asked, "What is this, an episode of Designing Women?" And once she said she'd survived 2 seasons of the show, too.

- Kristen

The Facts of Life was mentioned in the Square Pegs episode "Square Pigskins". The Flying Nun was mentioned in The Odd Couple episode "You Saved My Life". The Courtship of Eddie's Father was mentioned in The X-Files episode "Paper Hearts". The Simpsons was mentioned in the Millennium episode "The Cure of Frank Black" and The X-Files episode "Revelations".

The Fresh Prince - that was my man Gregory Sierra (:eyes:) who said about Uncle Phil - "ain't you the guy from Family Matters?" That was too funny. :rofl:


What episode was that? I'd love to see it. Sounds hilarious!

What episode was that? I'd love to see it. Sounds hilarious!
"Will Gets Committed", which was the second episode of Season 3.

All in the Family (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=31) - Edith's fav. show was Marcus Welby, MD and Archie hated Walter Cronkite on the CBS Evening News.

Married with Children (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=84) - Al's fav. show was the fictional western Psycho Dad, each one hour ep. averaged 84 killings incl. Psycho Dad killing his family.

Leave it to Beaver- Wally mentions watching Ben Casey, and one episode Gilbert makes a reference to Rod Serling.

The Munsters- in the episode where Eddie runs away, Herman wants to handle it like Ward on Leave it to Beaver.

Married with Children- 'F Troop' is mentioned a few times, even Larry Storch makes an appearance.

Green Acres- a play is put on based on The Beverly Hillbillies tv series(Eddie Albert plays Jethro)

The Wonder Years- Kevin dreams he is in a Star Trek episode

Batman(60's series)When Batman and Robin are climbing up the wall Col Klink from Hogan's Heroes pops his head out the window.

The A-Team- Face(Dirk Benedict) sees a Cylon walk by, and reacts as if he recognizes it from somewhere.

In Perfect Strangers, besides the cable TV episode that mentioned so many classic shows, the episode in which the cousins babysit Gina's baby had Balki singing the theme to The Brady Bunch to put the baby to sleep(as well as Larry singing it in another scene), and at the end after Gina got it back they decided to watch TV, and guess what was on!

The Fresh Prince have mentions of Webster when a girl asks Carlton is he "the guy" from Webster.

In Mad About You, Paul and Jamie mention how one of the doctors on ER was based on one of the doctors they were seeing. I'm not sure if that's true or not, though.

Al mentioned Bewitched, Gilligan's Island and Full House in the episode "The Wost Noel" from Married With Children. He also mentioned Family Matters in another episode and I'm pretty sure Full House was mentioned at least one other time and of course The Jeffersons.

Corner Gas has mentioned M*A*S*H, Street Legal and the Beachcombers*
*The last two are Canadian classics not well known in the USA

GOLDEN GIRLS - I know they've mentioned the Cosby show several times. One episode I remember Dorothy talking to sophia about something to the affect of "Wait till a funny black family moves in next door" or something like it, it was a funny line I remember. Also I think it was something to do with a repairman fixing the house or something as they mentioned something about not on thursday because "The Cosby Show is on" referring to the Thursday Comedy Lineup.

ROSEANNE - Friends was mentioned a bunch. Roseanne joked about those "Skinny bitches drinking latees", and I forget the line exactly but she said something about "Go for the muffins!" I believe it was the eppi where Roseanne gets her own spot on a morning show a la Regis & Kathy Lee, and states her opinions.
Another eppi where Becky runs off with Mark. Becky is on the stoop and says about staying in Lanford, stuck with my parents watching Bonanza. The lights start blinking signaling Becky to get in, as she opens the door, the theme of Bonanza starts playing.

Roseanne mentioned the Darrin switch on Bewitched a couple of times, and there was also this little nugget when new neighbors moved in:

"Well, okay, the husband Darrin, he's in advertising, and they have this cute little daughter named Tabitha. But the wife, I don't know, something's wrong with her. I think she's a witch." Roseanne's sarcastic channeling of Gladys Kravitz was hilarious. :lol:

on "THE HONEYMOONERS" once, Ralph appeared on "THE 64,000 QUESTION" and another time, Ralph and Ed were on "BEAT THE CLOCK" (both were game shows at the time that were also on CBS-and "THE 64,000 QUESTION" was the cause of the infamous "quiz show scandals". If you don't know what those were, see the movie "QUIZ SHOW")

Once on "GREEN ACRES", Oliver & Lisa were visiting an inventor. When they walked in, the guy turned off the TV, laughed, and said "Oh, those Beverly Hillbillies"-another reason that was funny was because "THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES" was also on CBS, and right before "GREEN ACRES".

Fresh Prince - and old neighbor thought Phil looked like "the dad on Family Matters", and also mentioned The Cosby Show numerous times.


Whats funny is, in that same episode Valerie Jones (Judy Winslow in the pilot of Family Matters) played Hillary in a flashback.

on "EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND" once, in a flashback scene of Frank walking out on Marie, Ray & Robert were seen watching "BONANZA".

In one of the WORST episodes of "STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE" (back in the first season, when it was titled "ENTERPRISE") in a flashback that was taking place on earth in the 50s, someone mentioned wanting to watch "I LOVE LUCY".

On an epsode of Good Times, Florida said something about hijacking Soul Train.

Whats funny is, in that same episode Valerie Jones (Judy Winslow in the pilot of Family Matters) played Hillary in a flashback.

I didn't know that - Family Matters and Fresh Prince had a lot of connections!

In the Seinfeld episode, "The Pen" Jerry's aunt Stella says "I'm missing 'Golden Girls' for this!"

On The Sopranos, the History Channel is mentioned a lot.

Andrea

on a first season episode of "HAPPY DAYS" (before they ruined it by adding that live audience, making it "THE FONZIE SHOW", etc.) Joanie was told to go to bed, and she said "But can't I stay up and see Groucho say the secret word"? (a reference to the show "YOU BET YOUR LIFE" with Groucho Marx).

KING OF QUEENS: During that dream sequence Treky above mentions, they also did THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS. :lol: With two characters on that soap making an appearance.
this isn't a TV show, but they also did a scene from an old TV-movie called "BRIANS SONG".

once on "CHEERS" they're watching the news on the TV in the bar, and when Rebbeca comes out, they quickley turn to "THIS OLD HOUSE".

Another time, Frasier is shown watching "GILLAGENS ISLAND".

ALF - On a S2 episode where ALF has a dream where he's on "Gilligan's Island," and when Willie asked what ALF was doing w/ a stagecoach he says "Now he's been watching reruns of 'Bonanza."

Gimme a Break! - made some bogus references about Punky Brewster and in turn on Punky Brewster, they made a lot of fat jokes about Nell Carter.

Good Times.


One of the characters was reading JET or some other black magazine on the couch.


The Jeffersons was on the FRONT cover of that same magazine!


LOL

I'm surprised by that, because networks seem to not like their shows mentioning shows on other networks that were on at the same time.


Well, Kramer was Murphy Brown's secretary in one Seinfeld episode.


That was brillant funny!

Matt Leblanc (Joey) was a regular on "Days of Our Lives" (On "Friends", that is!). He even had a DOOL Cast party!


And Days Of Our Lives was filmed in New York City too!


In real life, Days is in Los Angeles!


LOL

All in the Family (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=31) - Edith's fav. show was Marcus Welby, MD and Archie hated Walter Cronkite on the CBS Evening News.

Married with Children (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=84) - Al's fav. show was the fictional western Psycho Dad, each one hour ep. averaged 84 killings incl. Psycho Dad killing his family.


Married With Children - some people wondered if Jefferson was on Happy Days and The Love Boat!


Also, Married With Children did a parody of that one housewife too.

Al mentioned Bewitched, Gilligan's Island and Full House in the episode "The Wost Noel" from Married With Children. He also mentioned Family Matters in another episode and I'm pretty sure Full House was mentioned at least one other time and of course The Jeffersons.


Yeah, I remembered that episode.


Peggy and Marcy wants to see The Jefferson Live with Al and Jefferson.


The husbands did not want to see the show.


Al made Kelly and Bud to take their place at the The Jefferson LIVE.

The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air did a Soul Train episode.


I think Phil and Vivian met at Soul Train and they celebrated their 20th anniversary.

I remember an episode of Charles in Charge, and a kid(I think Justin Whalin)called Charles Chachi, and did the Chachi catchphrase "Wa wa wa"

In Roseanne, there's a scene where Roseanne names classic TV fathers that smoked...though either her character was wrong(or the writers)because she named Ward Cleaver as one of the smokers- he never smoked.

Mama's Family has an episode where they go on Family Feud.

How I Met Your Mother- Barney(Neil Patrick Harris) goes on The Price Is Right

King of Queens, in one episode during the closing credits they spoof the credits for Courtship of Eddie's Father with Jerry Stiller and Patton Oswalt playing the parts(even playing the theme song in the background)

On Red Dwarf, Dave Lister and Cat talk about how sexy they think Wilma Flintstone is:

Lister: D'ya think Wilma's sexy?
Cat: Wilma Flintstone?
Lister: Maybe we've been alone in deep space too long, but every time I see that show, her body drives me crazy. Is it me?
Cat: I think, in all probability, Wilma Flintstone is the most desirable woman that ever lived.
Lister: That's good. I thought I was going strange.
Cat: She's incredible!
Lister: What d'ya think of Betty?
Cat: Betty Rubble? Well, I would go with Betty... but I'd be thinking of Wilma.
Lister: This is crazy. Why are we talking about going to bed with Wilma Flintstone?
Cat: You're right. We're nuts. This is an insane conversation.
Lister: She'll never leave Fred, and we know it.

That 70's Show.


last night, the teens was watching Gilligan's Island.


another time, they spoofed about I Love Lucy.


Fez was Ricky, Donna was Lucy, Red was Fred and Kitty was Ethel.



Some other times, they did Happy Days, Charlie's Angels and few others.


Also, they did a BATTLE OF THE NETWORK STARS too.

I remember on Me & The Boys, Steve Harvey was lecturing his two troublemaking teenage sons. Then he sent them out of the room: "Wally, Beaver - upstairs!" :rofl:

The Flintstones and Bewitched did a crossover episode when Darren and Samantha make an appearance on The Flintstones(Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York did the voices)

and for that episode, HANNA-BARBERA; who did "THE FLINSTONES" & the opening animation for "BEWITCHED" used the animated figures of Samantha and Darrin from that show.

was watching golden girls last night and they mentioned designing women.

Fresh Prince made a mention of Mayberry RFD when Vivian and Phil went to a police station to pick up Will and Carlton.

Vivian made an angry remark towards the sheriff by calling Will and Carlton's arrest the worst rip-off since "Mayberry RFD!"

The Bewitched episode of the Flintstones was awesome!!!! I love how they remembered to add Samantha's heart necklace. :D

On an episode of Friends, Chandler says something like "it feels like when Melrose Place was canceled" referring to when Rachel left him.

There was a show about UFO's called Project UFO? or Project Blue Book?....something like that anyway.

On the show they mentioned "Charlie's Angels".

It was a mistake in writing because the UFO show was actually set in the 50's or 60's and Charlie's Angels would not have been on the air yet.

Alot of shows were mentioned on Friends...Baywatch,Happy Days, Family Matters,Laverne and Shirley, Melrose Place, Three's Company, Entertainment Tonight, The Waltons,Star Trek, The Golden Girls, What's Happening, Cheers, Dallas, Eight is Enough, Wild Kingdom, Jackass, Bevis and Butthead, Seasme Street, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, Lambchop

On The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air Carlton mentions something about having a date with Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. LOL.
I know that Tootie from The Facts of Life was mentioned more than once on Fresh Prince.
I know Sherman Hemsley and Isabel Sanford guest starred a couple of times as George and Louise "Weezy" Jefferson.
Sherman Hemsley guest starred as a completely different character several times.
Conrad Bain and Gary Coleman guest starred as their characters from Diff'rent Strokes. They were thinking about buying the mansion from the Bankses. Sherman Hemsley guest starred as George Jefferson in this episode and he is the one that ends up buying the mansion because it's close to the Playboy mansion and it makes Louise mad.

On The Golden Girls Blanche and Rose were mad at Dorothy and Dorothy says:
"I remember Jack and Janet giving this kind of treatment to Chrissy on an episode of Three's Company".
On another episode of The Golden Girls the girls all missed their flights to go visit their families on Christmas due to weather so they ended up going to a diner. It was the only place open on Christmas Eve and while there they all started telling each other Merry Christmas and Sophia said "What the hell is this, the Waltons?" LOL.
Mr. Belvedere was mentioned a couple times. Once Rose said it, "...they do it all the time on Mr. Belvedere." She was talking about repeating something and I guess Mr. Belvedere did that a lot on their storylines. It was mentioned again when Dorothy was talking to Stan. Stan: "I am but a humble servant." Dorothy:"Mr. Belvedere was a humble servant, Stanley. You're a horses' ass." Referring to Stan.
They even mentioned MASH in an episode. Sophia hadn't realized that it had been canceled. "Is Hotel still on?" LOL.

On Full House Jesse was trying to learn the Three's Company theme. He was trying to sing it to Nicky and Alex.
After Jesse and Rebecca got married, they decided to sleep in the attic on cots. Jesse: "Twin cots. Geez, I hope Wally and the Beav don't disturb us." Rebecca: "Hey Ward?" Jesse: "Yes, June?" LOL.

On an episode of Family Matters Laura and her friend Maxine were talking about something and Maxine said to Laura: "I will even bring my Punky Brewster lunchbox." That was an inside joke because Cherie Johnson who played Maxine was on Punky Brewster.

I was watching the first season of Sister, Sister - Ray's date mentioned being amused that Lisa lived over the garage "like Fonzie!" :lol: Lisa, waiting for an important phone call, paced around the phone, nodded her head and blinked like Jeannie and tried twitching her nose like Bewitched's Samantha. :lol: Lisa also mentioned the various talk shows she liked - Oprah, Montel Williams, and Geraldo. :lol:

on an episode of "PETTICOAT JUNCTION" once, Steve Elliot-I think that was his name-thought that the 3 daughters all wanted to marry him(oh, what were their names again?) and in one scene he said to Kate "If you think David Jannsen can run-watch this"! (reffering of course to the then-popular show "THE FUGITIVE")

^ Billie Jo, Bobbie Jo and Betty Jo were the three Bradley daughters on PJ. :cool:

^ Billie Jo, Bobbie Jo and Betty Jo were the three Bradley daughters on PJ. :cool:
that's it! (hey, gimme a break-I just turned 51 a couple months ago!):)

that's it! (hey, gimme a break-I just turned 51 a couple months ago!):)
You're OK, Joe. :lol: I've been meaning to tell you that I think your new avatar is very cool!! :cool: :lol:

Goerge Lopez Show, The - When his mom was showing George his old stuff she used to save up, George found his old lunchbox from "Chico and the Man" and said Freddie Prinze's catchphrase: "Loooooking Gooooood!"

Ironically, George Lopez paid homage to the late Freddie Prinze Sr. again at a TV Land Awards show as well.

You're OK, Joe. :lol: I've been meaning to tell you that I think your new avatar is very cool!! :cool: :lol:
Thanx!

Etc, etc, etc

I was watching the episode of The Jeffersons where Jenny goes into labor and George mentions BJ & The Bear.

On SEINFELD, Susan told George to hurry up because MAD ABOUT YOU was starting.

Of course this means Susan & George were watching a fictional sitcom about a couple living in New York featuring a character who, as was learned in an episode of MAY, was sub-letting his old apartment to their friend Kramer.

How does that happen?

And it probably turned out that both shows were dreamed up by the autistic kid in the last ep of St. Elsewhere! :lol:

Leave it to Beaver- Wally mentions watching Ben Casey, and one episode Gilbert makes a reference to Rod Serling.


This same LitB ep ("Beaver on TV" from the final season) also had Wally making references to Meet the Press and Captain Kangaroo.

The only ep of Ned and Stacey that I ever watched had Ned's character w/ an obsession w/ Mr. Belvedere, and Christopher Hewett played himself in that one, looking quite a bit thinner than he ever had as Belvedere.

On the show "Strange Luck" I believe the main character was directed to call the FBI and the number was mentioned as "Fox Mulder"'s number. I think that might have been the show's last episode, though.

:rofl:

once on "PETTICOAT JUNCTION" Steve Elliot was running from something, and before he started he said to Kate "If you think David Jannsen can run, watch this"! (which was, of course, a reference to "THE FUGITIVE").

Once on "GET SMART" a female Control agent was turned into a child and when Max found her, she said she likes to watch Capt. Kangaroo.

The Golden Girls makes a reference to some tv show in just about every episode. Especially Sophia. They make good material for one-liners!

Miles: I've never met anyone quite like Rose!

Sophia: Check the cornfield on Hee Haw!:lol:

Roseanne spoofed alot of shows, plus had classic sitcom stars make cameos. And how bout that episode where she had about 8 sitcom mothers in her kitchen!

on an episode of Friends they are watching "Three's Company"
Will and Grace also mention Buffy and Sex and the city numerous times.
