Basically, name fictional TV shows that appeared or got mentioned on real TV shows. For instance: 30 Rock had The Girlie Show The Flintstones had The Happy Housewife |

Another Full House one is Joey did a sitcom pilot with Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon called Surf’s Up. It wasn’t picked up but got retooled into a same named animated series with Annette, Frankie, and Joey doing the voices.
And then after this one episode we never heard about it again. |
