It did fit the 30 minutes, different topic each week sitcom mold, but it was way more serious than most sitcoms.


Wasn't it an hour long?

Nope. They lived in a Dee-lux apartment in the sky-hi. Pretty sure Balki lived in an apartment too.

What would you consider the house in Too Close for Comfort? It was one of those San Francisco row houses - I know the building itself was two story, but Henry and Muriel lived upstairs and the daughters downstairs. Was it a townhouse, an apartment building, a two story house with the lower level turned into an apartment?

Damn, I vaguely remember that show. I had to google it and ran across this. Per wiki:

quote:

Ted Knight and Nancy Dussault star as Henry and Muriel Rush, owners of a two-family house in San Francisco. The two story red house, seen at the opening and closing of each episode was shot at 171-173 Buena Vista Avenue in San Francisco.

Dukes of Hazard? I don't recall the boys trouncing down any stair cases at Uncle Jessie's farm house.

Does this count as a sitcom?

Uncle Jessie's pad was one story but I don't know if you'd call the Dukes a sitcom. Maybe so?

Mork and Mindy?

quote:

After discovering Mork is an alien, Mindy promises to keep his true identity a secret and allows him to move into her attic.
Does an attic count as a second story?

Mork & Mindy house was two story at least in real life.


I don't ever remember anything more than the living space and the attic though, so maybe the downstairs was a seperate apartment or something?

Wonder Years was far from a sutiation-comedy show.

I think Hooperman was the first show to get the Dramedy label. Wonder Years was more Dramedy or slice of life than sitcom.

By the way, Wiki lists Wonder Years as a comedy-drama. FWTW

I guess the tents in M*A*S*H don't count as houses either, if you're not going to count the huts in Gilligan's Island.

BTW, this is one of the funniest Movie board threads I've read in a while!

WRONG.

CORRECT.

The Flintstons on the other hand was a cartoon, not a Sitcom.


WRONG.

The Flintstones was an animated situation comedy a.k.a, sitcom

With that being said...The Jetsons lived in a one story home. It was a space needle like house, but it was a house just the same.

No doubt. He had at least 3 levels of living in that house that appeared to be one story from the outside. I would not at all be suprised if he also had a little stabbin cabin for Alice and Sam the Butcher hid out in there somewhere.

Mike also had a hidden cellar where the bodies of all the missing little boys from the neighborhood were discovered decades later.

Actually, if you count the sunken office, then you should also count Greg's swinging bachelor pad in the attic, thus 4 floors in a house that looked like a single floor.
