One Big Family (1986). The last attempt at a hurrah for Danny Thomas. It went a season.

I have an episode of One Big Family, but there is so little info out there on the series, I'm not sure which one it is.

The 5 Mrs. Buchanans (1994-95).

I watched most of this when it originally aired, but remember zip except Charlotte Ross was called Bree. At least a handful of full episodes are on YouTube.

Turn-On, the infamous ABC bomb from 1969. Some networks refused to air it, at least one cut it off after 10-15 minutes and some that did air the episode were flooded with complaints. Few clips of the show exist.

Many folks remember the Super Mario Brothers Super Show, with Lou Albano. I like reminding people of its last season, Club Mario.

In GBS' white whale thread, I've been trying to figure out a mid-1990s sitcom scene.

Grandpa is watching his grandson one night, the same night a big boxing match is on PPV. Grandpa has been looking forward to this and has everything ready to go. Right at bell time, the grandson gets caught on the fridge or on top of it and needs his grandfather's help getting down. Grandpa does this as fast as possible, but by the time he gets back to the TV, the fight is over. Immediate first round knockout.

He at least wants to see the instant replay, but something distracts him there, too.

I was thinking it might be Shaky Ground. Wiki has details of some episodes and one is boxing. Youtube has some rips of some episodes, including the boxing one described. It is not that episode. I'm not 100% convinced that there wasn't another boxing episode later in the series.

I've gone through all the primetime schedules for the 1990s and can't find anything else that has a similar lineup of characters. I'm pretty sure grandpa was recurring because I think he had a girlfriend in this episode or another one.
