multi-part sitcom episodes of all time? Any two, three or four (!) parter is fair game!

One of mine is the 3 part Sanford and Son Hawaii extravaganza. I love how they play the Hawaii 5-0 theme whenever the cops are doing something!

Of course The Brady Bunch Grand Canyon and Hawaii episodes are timeless classics as well!

NewsRadio (Season 5)
Jail - Part 1
The Lam - Part 2
Clash of the Titans - Part 3

This three parter introduces Johnny Johnson, an evil man who takes control of Jimmy's empire and has Mr. James thrown in jail. Everyone in the office is under Johnny's evil spell except for Dave, who tries to convince the staff that Johnny's evil. I won't give away the ending, but it involves special guest star Adam West!

Saved by the Bell: The New Class (Season 2)
Goodbye Bayside - Part 1
Goodbye Bayside - Part 2

This season two finale, finds Bayside sold and about to be torn down. The current gang tries to save the school by inviting the man's high school friend back to talk some sense into him (it's the girl he had a crush on in high school). The best part comes at the end. Slater, Lisa and Zack all come back to save Bayside.

All of the two-part "Taxi" episodes.
As well as the three part London episodes of "Married ... with Children."

Yeah I need to add the Happy Days "Welcome Home" two-parter. I love those episodes. Especially the beginning, when the audience is applauding for the returning cast members, Lori Beth, Ralph and Richie. I wonder if it was kept a secret from the audience that they were coming back.

The entire "Uh-Oh" sequence (3 parts) on Murphy Brown comes to mind. The scene in Part 2 where Murphy runs into Miles while she's buying home pregnancy tests is a riot! Plus these are the eps. that start the whole storyline of the pregnancy. While I'm on the subject, I should also add the "Potatoe" episodes from Season 5. The show's reaction to the Dan Quayle thing was very well-done. They managed to actually make a point among all the comedy.

Edit:I can't believe I left out Wings. The "Decent Proposal/Whose Wife is it, Anyway?" two-parter where Joe and Helen get engaged is great. And so is the one about their wedding and Joe's bachelor party. (Can you tell I'm a Joe/Helen fan? hehe!)

I don't know if this qualifies, but I remember on I Love Lucy where they go to Hollywood cause Ricky's going to be in a movie or something. Some really great episodes there, like when Lucy and Ethel ditch the tour bus and jump the fence at Richard Widmark's house to pick a grapefruit.
