Remember when Carlton gets shot! Lol


And then later he’s got a gun! Holy shit, priceless. First time I saw it was like “is this shit even real, is this the wrong show? Did they forget what show they were on?”

reply

Carltons got a gun.

they had a few serious episodes over the years, which was weird for a comedy show.

reply

A lot of the sitcoms in the 80s, and 90s had "very special episodes", which were about serious topics.

Hoowee!! That 2 part episode of Different Strokes The Bicycle Man about the child molester!! 😖😫

reply

Yup. I remember that one.

reply

Never saw any different strokes but the Jefferson’s had a bunch of these types of episodes. Guys with guns, kkk members, you name it. Well not sure about child molesters but it wouldn’t surprise me.

reply

The Full House episode with the kids drinking beer and one dude sprays it all over dj, and later uncle Jesse thinks she’s drunk.

Also the Family Matters where the racist cop harasses Eddie and so Carl has to confront him.

These weren’t as good as Carlton with the gun but they were still trying to be a little edgy.

reply

I can't remember if it was Full House or Boy Meets World, but there was an episode where one of the classmates was being abused by their father. I think it was Boy Meets World.

reply

Actually, they did such an episode on "Full House".
Stephanie somehow had realized that a boy in her class was abused.

reply

That's right.
