is there any sitcom ever where a family has moved into a new house anytime during the intire run like they start in one and by the end of it there in a new one

I Love Lucy. Only they don't change houses. They go from apartment to house. Does that count?!

My Three Sons, Perfect Strangers and Leave It To Beaver are the only ones I can think of right now.

This has been a topic I've been wondering about for awhile, because there are not many shows that do this. The only one that I can think of is The Jeffersons. They move from the house next to Archie and Edith to the deluxe apartment in the sky.

Beaver is the most obvious, but there were some other changes not by "families," if they count:

Coach-from the cabin in Minnesota to the modern house in Florida
Laverne & Shirley-from Milwaukee to California
Mary Tyler Moore-from cool apt. to the one with the view
Facts of Life-school to Edna's to another place? (I lost track)

Mr. Brady moved from his house and Ms. Martin moved out of her parents house, got married, and moved into there ever famous 2 story ranch if you call it that,

"THE GOLDBERGS"-one of the very first sitcoms.
The Cuninghams on "HAPPY DAYS" even though nothing was ever said.

Not a family but in who's the boss? mona gets kicked out of her apt and angela makes one for her out of the garage and rents it out to her

FueledByParamore · 05-30-2007, 02:54 PM

yeah i forgot about some of those jw cause most sitcoms theyre always in the same house for the intire series

The Odd Couple (Felix & Oscar) move from one apartment to a different one -- but nothing is ever said about the new place.

comedyfreak · 06-02-2007, 05:26 AM

Mary Tyler Moore Show, Mary moves from her studio apartment to a one bedroom.

Perfect Strangers-Larry moves from a studio to a bigger apartment after Balki moves in, then in the last season the boys get married and share a house.

Welcome Back Kotter-The Kotters move from their studio apartment to a bigger apartment after julie has the twins during the 3rd season.

Not the main characters, but the Coopers moved to a new house "across town" (according to Wayne) on The Wonder Years between the 1989-90 and 1990-91 seasons.

Heather987 · 06-04-2007, 08:40 AM

The original home on TCS changed after the 1st episode, or its downstairs appearance changed dont think the family moved though.

Golden Girls - Rose, Dorothy, Sopia all moved in with Blanche and then all moved to a hotel except Dorothy who married

Mamas Family - Naomi moved from her house next door to the basement with Vint after they married

TCS - Sondra/Elvin moved from a crappy apt into a better one, in with Cliff/Claire, into a new house

puertaazul · 06-04-2007, 11:49 AM

wow, this is a really good question. the only thing i could think of was the full house crew adding all those "additions" on to their house, like the attic, the garage, etc. that was hysterical.

Heather987 · 06-04-2007, 03:00 PM

Roseanne - Jackie moved from her apt, in with Roseanne and her mother, then into that house that Dan and his buddies were selling.
Darlene moved from home to her school apt.
Becky and Mark moved into some trailer from Roseannes home
