Sad one could be when sam went missing you could see how much the mother missed him and wanted him back

some episodes arent sad overall but have sad moments in them like the one where dudely thinks if its dad doesnt find a job he can be taken away or the one where arnold tries to hook up mr drummond with the black maid they used for a while

The episode where willis friend dies in a car crash at random was a sad one

The one where Willis friend died mr Drummond didn't seem to sad about it Willis was crying and mr Drummond was just like aww I'm sorry lol

Neutronman67 · 04-30-2013, 08:44 AM

Yeah but it felt kinda rushed their should have been a 2 part episode because they never mention the death of willis friend again in the series.

The only sad part of that episode is that they found him and had to take him back.

Why do all those links go to Cosby Show reviews?

Probably "Sam's Missing".

The 8th season episode when Willis is off to college and Arnold is too proud to say he'll miss him so he writes Willis a note and reads it revealing Arnold's true feelings that he'll miss Willis, pretty tear jerker stuff.

That episode was on the other night. Terrible stuff. The biggest joke is that they were all saying goodbye to Willis like he was getting executed in the morning. Then he just came home a few days later to do laundry.

He moved out of the house. That was a big event. They were accustomed to having him there for so long and now a big change is being made. That is very normal.

WalterTheDrinker · 12-27-2013, 03:25 PM

They were acting like typical, soft, out-of-touch, entitled rich people. Drummond was the strongest one out of all of them, probably thanks to his war experience. He seemed like he wanted Willis the hell out of the house finally, quite frankly. (Who could blame him?) The other ones were a pathetic mess. "Willis!!! How will we possibly go on between now and when you come home to do laundry later this week???"

Drummond probably wished he could have been rid of all of them, to be honest.

Walter, I don't mind you posting your opinion but I have to remind you not to turn all comments into a negative bash fest. So please be mindful when you do post. Thank you.
