DarleneIllyria 09-06-2002, 10:00 PM You know, you are right. Most shows do I have an episode like that.
Here's some I can remember off the top of my head
Leave it to Beaver~ Beaver gets his head stuck in a fence
Mr. Bean~ Gets his head stuck in a turkey
Sitcomwriter 09-06-2002, 11:04 PM BTW the quote I posted above is from an episode of "That's my Bush" called "Trapped in a Small Enviorment" and don't bother looking or those Friends and Geena Davis episodes because they don't exist!
Will and Grace Fanatic 09-07-2002, 01:42 AM In I Love Lucy, Lucy gets her head stuck in a trophy. And on an episode of Friends Joey gets his head stuck in a Turkey.
BulletTrain 09-07-2002, 03:09 AM In the simpsons bart gets stuck in a well.
Sean Snow 09-07-2002, 07:55 AM In #166 "Baby, It's Cold Inside" of "Three's Company", Jack and Mr. Furley get stuck in a freezer. I also remember an episode of "Kenan & Kel" where they got stuck in a bathroom and an episode of "Happy Days" where they either got stuck in a bathroom or meat locker, not sure about that one.
TVJunkie101 09-07-2002, 10:19 AM And of course, who can forget "I Love Lucy" when Lucy got trapped in a meat locker/freezer.
I actually remember watching a Dallas episode with Bobby and JR getting stuck in something, but I forgot what they were stuck in!
TV Guy 09-07-2002, 10:45 AM Don't forget that episode of "Cheers" when the subplot was about Diane stuck under the floor of the bar. That episode was done during Shelley Long's pregnancy, and was a pretty clever was of disguising it while keeping Diane featured.
Janice 09-07-2002, 11:45 AM Laura Petrie got her toe stuck in the tub faucet while bathing on The Dick Van Dyke Show.
Doug got stuck hanging from the attic ceiling on The King of Queens.
Maybe this counts, Cliff Claven was stuck on a mechancial bull on Cheers.
Archie Bunker was locked in his cellar.
Sitcomwriter 09-07-2002, 01:40 PM Mallory and Skip were stuck in the basement on an episode of "Family Ties" and of course the aforementioned "That's My Bush" episode "Stuck in a Small Enviorment"!
Will and Grace Fanatic 09-07-2002, 01:44 PM On the Brady Bunch, two of the Brady boys got stuck in a meat freezer.
LucyFan 09-07-2002, 11:56 PM Yes, it is true unless it is a short-lived show.
In one of the most famous episodes of The Lucy Show, Lucy Carmichael and Vivian Bagley get stuck in the shower.
In an I Love Lucy episode entitled "The Passports", Lucy gets stuck in Fred's old vauldville trunk.
AND who can't forget The Lucy Show episode where Lucy Carmichael gets locked in the vault with Mr. Mooney! Btw, the was the first episode to feature Mr. Mooney.

Yes, Greg and Bobby got stuck in Sam the Butcher's meat locker in Episode #62, "Big Little Man," in which Bobby, always complaining about his height (or lack thereof), becomes a hero when he climbs out the window of the meat locker (after Greg broke it) and opens the door. Greg, unlike little Bobby, was too big to fit through.
Also, in Episode #115, "Top Secret," in which Bobby is convinced a visitor from the FBI is a double agent out to steal Mike's plans and that Sam the Butcher is about to sell Mike's blueprint plans to a spy named Gronsky (who turns out to be Sam's landlord). Bobby locks Sam and the Gronsky guy in Sam's meat locker.
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 09-09-2002, 01:28 PM On Happy Days, the gang and their dates all got stuck in Howards safe-vault.
On 90210, Kelly got locked in the bathroom (with some girl) during a fire. Not a comedy, but they still got stuck lol.
On Laverne & Shirley Squiggy got stuck in the apartment shoot for like, 2 minutes- he was digging for gold in the "mine-shaft"
Bootsy Whoosh 09-09-2002, 02:16 PM Good point! It does seem to be true, doesn't it?
On the Facts of Life Jo gets stuck in the attic with that guy who moves in up there (forget his name).
The "Friends" folks seem to get stuck alot. There's all the ones already mentioned, and then there's also:
Monica, Chandler, Joey and Phoboe get "stuck" in a bedroom while Rachel and Ross fight outside. They weren't literally stuck, as they could leave whenever they wanted, but they didn't want to. Also it was a pretty big space but when you consider there were 4 people in there, it seems smaller.
Also Ross and Phoboe? I think got stuck in the janitor's closet at the hospital when Ross' ex-wife was giving birth to Ben.
Will and Grace Fanatic 09-09-2002, 02:32 PM I think this fits here. On Cheers Sam got stuck outside on the window ledge well babysitting.
Brian Damage 09-09-2002, 04:36 PM On Diff'rent Strokes-Arnold and Willis get stuck in the basement.
Odd Couple-Felix and Oscar are stuck in the laundry room.
Frasier- Niles is stuck in the building's stairwell.
webuster 09-13-2002, 03:11 PM It's true, every show has an episode like that:
Moonlighting- David and Maddie get stuck in an elevator
Diff'rent Strokes- Arnold gets stuck on the windowsill outside the penthouse.
Ellen- I'm not sure if this counts, but in one episode Ellen and Paige get stuck in a fence while trying to climb over it while visiting a health spa
Adamantium 09-14-2002, 07:51 PM I saw an episode of "Night Court" in which Harry gets locked inside a small safe. :p
Penny Lane 09-14-2002, 07:57 PM On Designing Women Julia gets her head stuck in a stair rail in a fancy home.
