Favorite underappreciated episode? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Number 9 Dream · 05-08-2005, 09:10 PM

Ok, we all know which episodes are the best and most popular...but is there an episode you really, really love that doesn't get talked about often?

I'm sure I have a bunch more, but right off the bat I can say I love A Black Letter Day , Season 4. I watched this episode for the very first time last night on my dvd(remember, I'm quite the newbie at liking this show so there are some episodes I haven't seen!) and I was DYING with laughter. First off, Chrissy's impersonation of a "come hither" type look with Lana

Then the whole "siamese twin" article that they kept repeating just had me in stiches. I thought the comedy was so great in this episode.

What are your favorite underappreciated episodes?

Wow, I have a lot!! I love all the episodes where Jack is very loving and caring to the girls because (from what I heard) John was exactly like that. Like last night, in the first episode (I missed the 2nd one, so I'm not sure which one it was) Jack was like Chrissy's father--it was so sweet!! But every episode where Jack is like their father, I catch myself smiling because John was like that.

I also like the episodes where John shows off his physical comedy!! My mom and I crack up watching him!! The first episode I saw was "Strangers In The Night" and I was hooked all because of John! I wanted to watch it ALL night just to see John throw himself around to make us laugh!

Makes me miss even more though.
Reminder, Three's Company will not be on at 11 tonight, but it will be on at 2am, just to let everyone know! The episodes will be Chrissy's New Boss and The Crush.

I think Upstairs Downstairs Downstairs is really funny. That's the one where Jack is trying to cook a dinner for the girls and a dinner for a girl he has stashed in Larry's apartment, then another girl comes over. He's running around like a chicken without a head. They all find out about each other at the end and pour food on him, etc.

I love that one! This episode was so chaotic and crazy!

Great topic girly! I love Larry Loves Janet!!! It's my fav. non-Jack and Janet epi! Larry is so silly! OMG I love him on this epi!!! LOL! and so is everyone else!!!

Chain Gang Member · 05-10-2005, 11:02 AM

Larry sort of creeped me out when he showed up in a tux holding a coursage.He acted like a teenage boy on a first date.It was weird seeing him dressed up and acting like that

TVFactFan · 05-10-2005, 11:40 AM

The most underappreciated episode is when Jack gets Bullied by the Tall guy at the Reagle Beagle in season 1.

I LOVE "A Black Letter Day!" John was SO cute at the end when Janet told him he sucked his thumb in his sleep!

I LOVED it! I also love "The Loan Shark"

Terri Cardellini · 05-13-2005, 01:39 PM

i think probably one of the most under appreciated episodes is Dates of Wrath... i LOVE that one and not too many people ever mention it... i think it's hilarious how Janet and Terri argue lol....i also like Out on a Limb...that one's not noted too much either

Chain Gang Member · 05-13-2005, 02:37 PM

I too liked Out On A Limb.Especially when Terri shouted into Mr.Townsand's ear.

Terri:OH,I'M SO GLAD THAT YOU'RE HERE MR.TOWNSAND!
--------------------------------------------------------
Terri: DO YOU REALLY NEED TO GO INTO YOUR OFFICE RIGHT NOW!

Mr.Townsand:I'M AFRAID SO!

I know but seeing Larry do that was kinda uncharacteristic of him.If I was Jack,I would've said "Who are you?"
