Well, Weeds for one ... Curb Your Enthusiasm for another. they're great entertainment but not likely to happen IRL.

Anyone ?

Three's Company, Gilligan's Island, Full House, and Seinfeld (depends which incidents you talk about).

Chocolate Moose · 12-03-2008, 01:28 PM

Oh, and 2 1/;2 Men. Not that I don't love it, I just don't think it would really happen.

ALF and Mister Ed are probably right up there... along with Green Acres, The Beverly Hillbillies and Mork and Mindy. I concur with everyone who has said Gilligan's Island as well... but that one's obvious! Let's make a car made out of coconut shells... that'll work! And it did!

Is Weeds really a sitcom to begin with? No offense intended, I just think it's not a 'sitcom' formula.

And more often than not, we're more willing to accept the IMPOSSIBLE in television and movies, than we are the IMPROBABLE. Could most of the things that happen in Weeds actually happen? Believe it or not, yes.

But I do agree with Curb Your Enthusiasm.

And I would add the Drew Carey Show. It got to the point that things were truly impossible. (Drew being sent to the Great Wall of China, for example.)

Sure Weeds is a sitcom. My kids laugh and laugh at it, while I sigh .....
Zany isn't realistic, but it is entertaining. Many sitcoms resort to zany.

Three's company, there would be no way in real life that a straight man could live with two sexy girls and not be intimate with one of them.
