It's been a while since I've watched the reruns but, I don't remember a serious episode.

I'd say that when Kyle gave the eulogy at Chef's Funeral it was kinda serious.


Chef's Eulogy

This was probably the most serious moment in South Park history. As ridiculous as the episode was the eulogy given by Kyle really showed that the creators cared for IH and wished things had turned out better then they did.

Colbert



even though it's not a sitcom, there's been a few serious moments. One is when he talked about Robert Novak having cancer and another when one of the congresswomen he previously interviewed died. I also think there was another when the congressman who Colbert got to say he liked cocaine got a lot of flack, Colbert talked good about him on air in a serious moment.

a lot of the shows mentioned in this thread either definitely had serious moments or are not sitcoms. the only 30 minute non-cartoon shows i can think of that have never had a serious moment are:

seinfeld
arrested development
always sunny in philadelphia

there are a couple serious moments. The finally when Michael gives his speech is serious. And a couple times when he talks to George Michael about family he is serious.

what about arrested development? can't remember one serious moment off the top of my head...


are you kidding me? Arrested Development definitely doesn't qualify as never having a serious moment...

2. Married with Children


There were a few.

1. Al and the family lose the Dodge at the drive through car-wash because it was originally red(the dirt washed off). Al was worried throughout the entire episode because his beloved car was gone, but to everybody's surprise, he was afraid that his family photo, which was stuffed inside a copy of Big-un's, was lost. That was serious.

2. Al was mad a Peggy, so he spent the evening at his friend from the shoe store (white playboy dude). Al was beging tempted by a hot airline attendent, but he turned her down because he actually loved his wife. That was serious.
