Sitcom kids learning to drive...which ep was best?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Oh, how do I remember learning to drive. I look back now and laugh watching some of these eps:

Marcia learning to drive on the Brady Bunch

Tia and Tamera learning to drive on Sister, Sister.

Even though she wasn't a teen, the episode of Bewitched with Sam learning to drive. Paul Lynde, pre-Uncle Arthur, played her nervous mortal instructor. The way he yells "SELFISH! SELFISH!" is priceless!!

A couple of learning o drive episodes that come to mind:

Kevin in the Wonder Years not being able to Parallel Park.
Dj in Full House crashing uncle Jesse's red Mustang.

"Clueless" had a good one, with a funny Brittany Murphy(guest star) behind the wheel.

Marcia Brady.

I know this isn't a kid, but Lucy teaching Ethel to drive is a classic!

Ahhhh, season, what season was that? damnit...can't remember, but it is the episode when they are going to get ready to leave for Hollywood. I think it is season 3.

You're not alone! My choices are a tie between the following:

Balki Bartokomous on Perfect Strangers
Laverne DeFazio on Laverne and Shirley

JO jr · 02-25-2007, 02:52 PM

TOOTIE ON THE FACTS OF LIFE. 4 OF HER FRIENDS WERE TEACHING HER THE RULES OF THE ROAD, THE THINGAMAJIGS INSIDE OF THE CAR, AS WELL AS HOW THE CAR OPERATES. ALL WITHOUT LEAVING THE GARAGE.

THEN WHEN SHE WENT FOR HER LICENSE, SHE DOESN'T PASS. WHEN SHE RETURNS TO TAKE IT, THE ONLY CAR AVAILABLE IS FROM HER FRIEND, NATALIE'S PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT. WHICH WAS A FUNERAL HOME. SO, SHE'S OUT ON THE ROAD IN A HURSE WITH THE GUY FROM THE DMV, NATALIE HIDING IN THE BACK, AS WELL AS A BODY IN THE CASKET.

THIS WHOLE EP IS HILARIOUS, ESP THE LINE THAT JO STATES SHE DOESN'T LIKE TO TEACH PEOPLE TO DRIVE, BECAUSE THERE'S CRYING AND SLAPPING INVOLVED

I remember seeing Laverne learning to drive - but which season of PS did Balki learn to drive? I don't remember that one - it sounds hilarious!!
