Scenes just for Opening Credits - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone know of any other shows that created scenes only for opening credits? Meaning that the scenes you saw in the opening credits were never seen in a episode just the opening credits. I know 3 shows that have done this.

Happy Days
Good Times
Three's Company

If any HD fans reply, the scene when Al drops a plate of french fries on Richie, Ralph, and Potsie in the opening credits was never part of any HD episode

Full House. None of the scenes in the opening credits were ever shown in episodes.

Boy Meets World, the opening scenes for Seasons 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 were not in the show. Some of the stuff in the Seasons 1 and 4 openers were though

The Brady Bunch - there were nine TV-shaped photographs of the actors and actresses with light blue backgrounds

Perfect Strangers - several scenes, including the one outside of Wrigley Field with the cousins running across the street

The Wonder Years - there were lots of videos "looking back" in the opening sequences that did not belong to any episode (Winnie driving the blue car in the last season or two, for example)

Okay now you've got me confused, what do you mean inside the house? I thought you were referring to scenes in opening credits that were never in the show.

Yeah Seasons 5, 6 and 7 were. Season 4 could be considered that too, cause they were in a car

Which segments in Good Times' opening are not in any of the episodes?

Isn't there a scene from the opening credits of Full House where DJ is lying on her bed talking on the phone???

As for the main question:

The Donna Reed Show (Donna answering the phone, standing by the door handing lunches and books to her kids)

Leave It to Beaver (same sort of thing, plus Ward and June waking up the boys, the family doing yard work, etc.)

Father Knows Best (the kids standing on the stairs giggling while the parents kiss)

I am. I'm talking about scenes inside the house that was never in a episode. Example, in the Happy Days Opening Credits, Al drops a plate of French Fries on Richie and Ralph inside the hangout-"Arnolds" but it was never seen in a HD episode.
