How many Wings characters does it take to change a lightbulb? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

You know the question, "How many <blank> does it take to change a
lightbulb?" Well, here's my Wings version of it.

Joe- Does research on all the different kinds of lightbulbs and lights and how they work and stuff like that before deciding what kind of lightbulb to use.

Brian- Thinks life is too short to worry about changing lightbulbs.
Asks Lowell or someone else to do it for him.

Helen- Practices lightbulb-changing a lot and dreams of becoming a professional lightbulb changer, but never can seem to make it.

Lowell- Breaks many lightbulbs and shocks himself several times before successfully changing the lightbulb.

Roy- Bribes someone else into changing the lightbulb for him.

Fay- Suspected by Brian to be the Lightbulb Killer. Accidentally hits
Brian over the head with a lightbulb.

Antonio- Is clumsy, inexperienced, and doesn't know where the
lightbulb goes.

Casey- Whines until Brian or Antonio or someone else changes it for her.

Carlton- Asks many annoying questions about lightbulbs and electricity and why lightbulbs need to be changed.

Sandy Cooper- Is madly in love with the lightbulb, but doesn't show her psychotic side unless she and the lightbulb are alone.

Bob- Takes Antonio hostage until someone changes Bob's lightbulb.

Danny Connelly- Gets all whiny and pissy and mean because Antonio won't change the lightbulb for him.

Any other ideas?

Here's one that was not on the list

Cord- quits because he cant handle changing the lightbulb

Hey, you forgot one:

Alex - While all of the guys are standing around, fumbling and trying to figure out how to install the new light bulb, Alex walks over, says, "Here, give me that", takes the light bulb, screws it in and calmly walks away as the guys all look at each other and ask, "How did she DO that?"

Roy: 3 wings characters to change a lightbulb ... 1 to change the lightbulb, 2 to rotate the ladder ............

Here's another old post I thought definitely needed to be brought back

Brian Hackett · 02-26-2005, 12:08 AM

I'm glad you brought that back, I never ever saw that and man is that clever.

Davis -- he's way too busy to be bothered changing lightbulbs, so he hires someone to do it for him.

Davis:Plans to invest in a lightbulb company, but then changes his mind and begins dating the owner's ex-girlfriend.

Fay uses a lightbulb named George, when it burns out, she finds another lightbulb named George, and so on. hehe
