Any other examples of this out there?

There was an episode of The Cosby Show called Full House.

Is this limited to only sitcoms? I can think of a few dramas this would also apply to.

Zoneboy · 10-11-2022, 05:43 PM

The Andy Griffith Show had an episode called Three's a Crowd.

I could change the title to TV show episode titles that were also other TV shows.

Would that still work on the General Sitcoms board? (because I can’t move it)

There's a Wings episode, "All in the Family"

^ There's also a 1998 "Home Improvement" episode called "All In the Family"...and then one three weeks later called "Bewitched"

Full House had an episode in 1991 called "Fuller House"...years before the spinoff of that name.

The Twilight Zone had episodes titled "The Invaders" and "The Hitchhiker"

opus · 10-12-2022, 10:32 PM

One Day At A Time had an episode called Small Wonder.

They also had an episode called The Good Life, which I figured had to have been a sitcom title at one point somewhere, so I looked it up. 4 seasons on the BBC.

And on the drama side ODAAT had an ep called Sisters, a show which ran on NBC for 6 seasons.

Yes. It is up to the OP, but general discussion of more than just sitcoms often happens on this board.

After 3 years I finally changed the thread title. Ok, so I’m no Usain Bolt.

Anyway, Touched By An Angel had these episode titles

- The Comeback

- Reasonable Doubt

- Last Call

- Millennium

- Promised Land (this show was a spinoff from this episode but I’ll count it)
