View Full Version : Most "Unrealistic" sitcom Chocolate Moose 12-03-2008, 10:52 AM Well, Weeds for one ... Curb Your Enthusiasm for another. they're great entertainment but not likely to happen IRL. Anyone ? sunshinefizzy 12-03-2008, 10:56 AM Three's Company, Gilligan's Island, Full House, and Seinfeld (depends which incidents you talk about). Chocolate Moose 12-03-2008, 01:28 PM Oh, and 2 1/;2 Men. Not that I don't love it, I just don't think it would really happen. TV DVD Fan 12-03-2008, 02:35 PM ALF and Mister Ed are probably right up there... along with Green Acres, The Beverly Hillbillies and Mork and Mindy. I concur with everyone who has said Gilligan's Island as well... but that one's obvious! Let's make a car made out of coconut shells... that'll work! And it did! dakert 12-03-2008, 02:51 PM My Mother The Car LOL TripperFan 12-03-2008, 04:14 PM My Favorite Martian Mr. Ed Married With Children Friends According to Jim The Beverly Hillbillies Green Acres The Munsters The Addams Family wkomorow 12-03-2008, 05:25 PM Aliens in the family Tubehead 12-04-2008, 01:52 AM i would say family matters. it was real for a while. then they had steve chaing into a cool guy. then they had him time travling. boy meets world the older shows the munster i don't think it was sousseped to be real just funny. i dream of jennie bewitched sarbien,theteeeange witch Gossbumps my favorite martian Tubehead 12-04-2008, 01:54 AM sorry didn't mean to post twice Buffyboy323 12-04-2008, 03:59 AM I Love Lucy The Munsters The Addams Family Bewitched I Dream of Jeannie The Brady Bunch Saved By The Bell jimpickens 12-04-2008, 05:25 AM Happy days My Name Is earl Laverne & Shirley comedyfreak 12-04-2008, 09:38 AM Welcome Back Kotter Mork & Mindy Full House Scrubs ALF 3rd Rock From The Sun Get Smart repeatshistory 12-04-2008, 01:42 PM Well, Weeds for one ... Curb Your Enthusiasm for another. they're great entertainment but not likely to happen IRL. Anyone ? Is Weeds really a sitcom to begin with? No offense intended, I just think it's not a 'sitcom' formula. And more often than not, we're more willing to accept the IMPOSSIBLE in television and movies, than we are the IMPROBABLE. Could most of the things that happen in Weeds actually happen? Believe it or not, yes. But I do agree with Curb Your Enthusiasm. And I would add the Drew Carey Show. It got to the point that things were truly impossible. (Drew being sent to the Great Wall of China, for example.) Chocolate Moose 12-04-2008, 01:56 PM Sure Weeds is a sitcom. My kids laugh and laugh at it, while I sigh ..... Zany isn't realistic, but it is entertaining. Many sitcoms resort to zany. TVFactFan 12-04-2008, 02:47 PM Well, Weeds for one ... Curb Your Enthusiasm for another. they're great entertainment but not likely to happen IRL. Anyone ? Three's company, there would be no way in real life that a straight man could live with two sexy girls and not be intimate with one of them. Lorimar Television 12-04-2008, 04:39 PM For all of you who said Full House, Im sorry but I disagree. I mean, sure the show would get sappy, but believe it or not, there really are families who get along well with eachother, and hug alot, out there. Plus they werent always perfect. They just always had a happy ending. DSfan 12-04-2008, 11:20 PM I agree. Also, people might it unrealstic because it might have been just so realistic that it was unrealistic for it to be so realistic (huge tongue twister lol hope everyone understood :) treky 12-05-2008, 03:31 AM ALF and Mister Ed are probably right up there... along with Green Acres, The Beverly Hillbillies and Mork and Mindy. I concur with everyone who has said Gilligan's Island as well... but that one's obvious! Let's make a car made out of coconut shells... that'll work! And it did! Also in "G.I." how their clothes never got holes in them or anything, none of the men ever grew beards, the proffesor could make virtualy ANYTHING out of a cocunut, etc. treky 12-05-2008, 03:36 AM well, out of current sitcoms, I'd say "MY NAME IS EARL" & "TWO AND A HALF MEN"-I'm not saying they're bad shows-in fact "EARL" is my favorite-just that they're unrealistic. littlebelle 12-05-2008, 03:38 AM I'm thinking Diff'rent Strokes... dav4463 12-05-2008, 05:46 AM Hogan's Heroes treky 12-06-2008, 04:37 AM out of the older sitcoms, "THE BEVERLY HILLBILLIES", "GREEN ACRES", "GET SMART", and DEFINETALY "HOGANS HEROES". wkomorow 12-06-2008, 07:53 PM Why is 2 1/2 men unrealstic? James 12-08-2008, 01:38 PM My vote goes to The Munsters. Honorable mention goes to Aliens in America, Married ... with Children, and Two and a Half Men. Oh, and all that animated fluff from FOX. GARFIELDKOOL 12-08-2008, 02:01 PM Brady Bunch, hands down! How often does a widow with 3 girls meets and marries a widower with 3 boys in the same age bracket as the girls?! DSfan 12-08-2008, 05:01 PM Only 1 other time.... on Step by Step. Lorimar Television 12-08-2008, 07:12 PM Only 1 other time.... on Step by Step. Actually they were two divorcees, the mother had 2 girls and 1 boy, and the father 2 boys and 1 girl. Heidi Dawn 12-09-2008, 05:47 PM Gilligan's Island - how on earth did Mary Ann and Ginger, plus the Howells get all of those extra clothes. Goldilocks 12-10-2008, 05:20 PM Let's not forget The Monkees! Four guys in their very early 20's living in that fabulous beach house, sharing one hot-rod car and their only visible means of financial support are their inconsistent gigs. Yeah, that could happen. :lol: factsoflife 12-10-2008, 06:27 PM Roseanne---it definetly has no relevance to my life. none whatsoever. Saved By the bell was pretty unrealistic, even by the standards of a high school show. Beverly Hills, 90210 Merlose Place Webster Different Strokes Facts Of Life ALF Mork & Mindy dawsongirl 12-12-2008, 09:33 PM I think it's beyond safe to say any show with a supernatural aspect. Those shouldn't even be listed because that's obvious. factsoflife 12-12-2008, 09:47 PM Actually they were two divorcees, the mother had 2 girls and 1 boy, and the father 2 boys and 1 girl. I'm pretty sure they said that Frank's wife died and that Carol was the only one with a divorce to her name. What i found odd about this show if they were both divorced how come neither one ever had to deal with the ex for custody? or go to court? how come neither ex ever visited or causes issues for the new spouse?

Frank's wife wasn't dead. She had left her family to go work as a dancer in Las Vegas. |
