Top 10 Worst Episodes of the Series! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jack1000 · 07-16-2003, 01:46 AM

Guys,

We did a top 10 BEST! How about the top 10 Worst? (Try to think of 10, but if you can't--that's ok.)

1. Your Never Too Old (aweful...aweful...aweful)
2. The Honeymoon (Ruined by Tiger/Fluffy slapstick scene)
3. And Now A Word From Our Sponser. (Bad script, over-acting)
4. Kelly's Kids (Nothing to do with Brady Bunch, new series spinoff)
5. The SuperSnooper (i.e Shirley Temple)....UGH
6. Getting Davey Jones (Storyline too far fetched, not the worst, but I can't watch it)
7. Love and the Older Man (Not really bad, but....boring)
8. The Personality Kid (Very over-rated)
9. Eenie Meenie Mommy Dad (Unrealistic conclusion & Robert Reed must have just LOVED his crawling on the floor and "ribbitting like a frog scene!" LOL! No wonder he wanted out of the show!)
10. Double Parked (Who cares about saving a park? Since when did the family become environmentalists?)

My "bottom ten" are the following:

#14 "Every Boy Does It Once" (Bobby and the evil stepmother)
#46 "The Winner" (Bobby doesn't have a trophy)
#68 "The Power of the Press" (Peter and science teacher Mr. Price)
#69 "Sergeant Emma" ("calesthenics ... at 0600 hours!")
#72 "Hawaii Bound"
#73 "Pass The Tabu"
#74 "The Tiki Caves" (72-74 were the Hawaii trip)
#83 "Goodbye Alice, Hello" (Alice at the coffee shop)
#93 "You're Never Too Old" (Mike and Carol's grandparents)
#101 "Getting Greg's Goat" (Raquel the goat)

Notice that none of them had Cousin Oliver.

I can't come up with 10 right this moment, but The SuperSnooper (Shirley Temple) ep was awful

Wow James,

Interesting choices although some of your worst are some of my better ones! LOL! Goodbye Alice Hello is excellent. What's wrong with Power of the Press? I like that one too! Same with Getting Greg's Goat! I'm surprised that Reed directed that one--considering it's "comic" element!

Elizabeth B. · 07-20-2003, 11:19 PM

Hey, I thought the one with the goat was hilarious!

The ones I hate are (in no particular order):

Goodbye Alice Hello
Every Boy Does it Once
Power of the Press
You're Never Too Old
Kelley's Kids

zack · 08-25-2003, 10:49 PM

These ones are just plain boring:

Alice's September Song
You're Never Too Old
Out of This World
The Hustler
How to Succeed in Business
My Fair Opponent
Tell It Like It is
Double Parked
Love and the Older Man
Power of the Press
Top Secret

I don't remember the name of the episode, but it's from the first season. Mike is designing a cosmetics factory for Phoebe Galini (I think that's her name) and Carol is jealous because she is monopolizing all of his time. I hate that episode.

Mike's Horror-scope.

Actually, the cosmetics woman was named Beebe Gallini. Don't feel bad, Phoebe is a more common name (as in singer Phoebe Snow from the 1970s).

I'm not familiar with most of the titles so I'll post something from each episode.

#1.Pork Chops & Applesauce-Personality Kid?
#2.The Typewriter with the droopy y
#3.Two Fruit Cups
#4.Sgt Emma
#5.The Tiki Caves
#6.Marsha Meets Davy Jones
#7.Teeter-Totter
#8.Peter's Double
#9.The one where the girls want to put curtains in the club house
10.Episode where the kids sing on some tv show

By the way, In the episode Sgt Emma, Did Ann B. Davis play a dual role or did her twin sister play the part? I read that she started out to be an actress but chose another profession.

boechsner · 09-09-2003, 04:28 PM

The bottom 10 on my list mostly for being boring would be:

10. My Brother's Keeper #106
9. The Possible Dream #25
8. The Power of the Press #69
7. The Show Must Go On?? #82
6. Top Secret #116
5. Career Fever #79
4. The Liberation of Marcia Brady #45
3. My Fair Opponent #72 (boring, boring, boring)
2. Getting Davy Jones #64 (incredibly boring and overplayed)
1. Kelly's Kids #108 (obvious reasons)

I'm not saying I hate these episodes, they are just the episodes I like the least of all 117. With #1, Kelly's Kids being the episode I like the least. Surprisingly, it's the only episode that makes a reference to the smash hit sitcom, All in the Family.
