Happy Days
Everybody Loves Raymond(the pilot episode was a lot different,after the pilot completely different and the same ever since)
The Cosby Show(the pilot episode was a lot different(dining room was in the living room,the stairs were small,after that,completely different)
Bewitched:After the 1970-1971 season,they had stairs in the kitchen.
I Dream Of Jeannie: First 2 seasons,modern decor.After that,paneling on the wall and different decor.

The Nanny - The Sheffield living room changed sides completely, from door to staircase, after the pilot.

FRIENDS - Monica and Rachel's and Chander/Joey's apartment numbers changed after the first episode(s). Does that count?

On The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the kitchen and living room sets changed completely after the first season.

The apartment stayed the same, but The Bob Newhart Show got better furniture and other furnishings during the first season.
Towards the end of the show's run, they moved to another apartment.

I didn't mind "I Love Lucy" changing the set because they at least explained it--they moved. (Except I did mind it when they moved to CT.) It is kind of a pet peeve of mine to see a show change sets with no explanation... even the pilots.

Naming a recent one, didn't "8 Simple Rules" have a different set in the pilot?

"The Odd Couple"-in the 1st season, their apartment was similar to the one in the movie. But, this was probably because the first season apt. set wasn't able to accomodate a studio audience.

Silver Spoons also

On Leave it to Beaver they moved into another house after the second season.

Different Strokes had completely different furniture during the last season.
The Lucy Show had a completely different set after the 3rd season.
The Mary Tyler Moore Show when Mary was living in Phyllis' house,I noticed a couple of changes in the kitchen.
The Partridge Family in the last season,the furniture was different,the kitchen was different,and the stairs had plush carpeting on them.

Mama's Family; The first season the living room was slightly different.

Happy Days had the most inane change. The front and back doors were on the same side of the house!

BLT · 03-20-2003, 11:33 AM

Murphy Brown -- final season--it was such an improvement on the old newsroom with red walls & stairs (I think).

NewsRadio -- in season 2 the production booth was replaced by the luncheonette/break room & dave's office had a window blind--in later seasons it would be solid. In season 5, the set looked different but I think they used duller lighting or somethin in that season. there was at least one change in that season-- matthew's desk had a shelf or somethin behind it or something.

Perfect Strangers -- the last two seasons after Larry & Jennifer got married & the four of them moved into a house with Balki & Maryann, which included a staircase This set was much nicer & less confined looking than Larry & Balki's apartment.

Seinfeld -- Jerry's apartment changed at some point.

Get Smart -- after Max & 99 got married, max's apartment changed.

On "All In The Family", the location of the bedrooms and bathroom were changed constantly. In the episode "There's A Fire In The Bathroom!!" I remember they had the bathroom where Teresa's {Mike & Gloria's} bedroom was once. And after that episode they changed the wallpaper in the living room, stairway, and that little room off of the dining room.

David · 03-22-2003, 03:56 PM

Um, I think at times Three's Company changed their set... but I might be just totally not making sense right now, but I think there was one episode in season 3 (I think it was Helen's Rendezvous) where the bathroom was totally different.... but I donno..
