Your all-time favorite sitcom episodes

[AOIIalum]

Ditto to whomever mentioned any Cosby episode involving lip synching!

M*A*S*H "Adam's Ribs" (and probably another 100 or so I could list, I adore this show)

WKRP in Cincinnati "Turkeys Away"

Designing Women "The Beauty Pageant"

Not slightly a sitcom, but the "Puppet Show" episode of Angel is probably one of the funniest 44 minutes of TV ever.

How was this forgotten until the fifth page?! I also loved the WKRP when Mrs. Carlson wanted to sell, so all the smart ones acted dumb, and all the dumb ones acted smart.

Did anyone else ever see Evening Shade? It had Bert Reynolds as the football coach of a small Southern town. The mayor's wife was Anne Wentworth, and when she was talking to a stripper, she said (paraphrasing), "My husband caught your act in Little Rock, and he said that you can get the one tassel twirling to the east, and the other twirling to the west. And I don't care what they say, that's a gift!"

I loved that show.

And did you ever see Filthy Rich? It was another Linda Bloodworth-Thomason series starring Dixie Carter, Delta Burke and Ann Wedgeworth, pre-Designing Women. They actually used one of the same lines in Filthy Rich and Designing Women -- Carlotta/Julia (Dixie Carter) to Kathleen/Suzanne (Delta Burke): "If sex were fast food, there'd be an arch over your bed!"

YES! Loved Ann Wedgeworth as Bootsie Westchester.

Here's the entire pilot:

I have to admit, I had never seen Filthy Rich before - it's pretty good! At least, it had me laughing, which is more than I can say about most of the current sitcoms.
