I suppose there's a thread, but oh well.

I'm watching Bachelor Father and see that they moved (meaning they changed sets) at the beginning of the third season. That doesn't seem to happen a lot. I can only think of two others (I Love Lucy and The Mary Tyler Moore Show). Are there any more shows where the main characters moved during the show's run?

Full House-Well they didn't move out of the house, but Joey moved from the basement room into Jessie/Michelle's old room. DJ moved into that room when Stephanie moved in to her room with Michelle. Jessie and Rebecca built an apartment upstairs in the house and moved into it.

Growing Pains-I can barely remember, but I think Mike Seaver got his own apartment in later seasons. Maybe not, though.

Cosby Show-Theo and Denise both moved out and got their own apartments

That's right. I can't believe I forgot about Joey sleeping in the alcove. One of my all-time favorite episodes is where they turn the garage into a room for him in Season One.

As far as I Love Lucy, I would consider when they went to California, a temporary move, since they were there so long, almost a whole season.

A Different World - Dwayne and Whitley moved into their house from their dorms at the campus once they both got married and graduated from college.

Ron also moved when he began dating Freddie in the final season, I think.

Also Dwayne and Ron also moved into another dorm room around the tail end of S2 or the very beginning of S3 I think.
