If there's a moment you thought should be on this list, make sure you watch our first list of the Top 10 Darkest Sitcom Moments: ua-cam.com/video/MGJhtc3Wya8/v-deo.html
What about Bens death from Scrubs. Cox imagines him there through the episode until he finally forgives JD and realizes they are going to the funeral instead of his kids party.
Moments from One Day At A Time: -Alex being told to "go back to Mexico" -Penelope's depression -Schnieder relapsing into alcoholism -Victor not accepting Elena being gay
A few more to include -Elena friend’s family getting deported -Lydia sister not being able to live in the U.S due to her age -Lydia getting hospitalized due to a stroke -Penelope and victor going back into the military after 9/11 -Penelope and Elena getting an anxiety attack
It was a great episode, but it had me wanting more and to see the fallout of that situation. Rosa seemed shaken up and I wish we got a follow-up episode with her dealing with it. Diaz is such an interesting character and Stephanie Beatriz is such a good actress it would've been a great opportunity to tackle the subject, because it's sadly far too relevant nowadays, as well as delve into her character a little more. I think it was a missed opportunity for a two-parter and there would've been potential for some great dark comedy as well considering Rosa's personality.
@@happychaosofthenorth I agree with you, it truly deserved a second episode. Rosa is one of the main characters, but I feel like she is often missed out. By that, I mean that she had very few moments in the spotlight, fewer than what she deserved. I don't know if you understand what I meant, but I'm glad if you did.
@@happychaosofthenorth weirdly enough, there's actually a movie starring stephanie beatriz as a woman who is sexually assaulted and it follows her dealing with the issues it causes in her life. I highly recommend it
@@goofybutserious4807 it's a quote from the Golden girls but it's not the full quote so I can kind of see why you don't understand it anyway its basically Blanche trying to tell Rose that Aids doesn't discriminate after Rose says that she shouldn't be able to contract it because she's a goody two shoes
Fred Mouling because they wanted them. People used to get robbed by gunpoint often. If you had something that someone else wanted they would say give it to me or I’ll shoot you.
How i met your mother when Lily tells marshal that his dad died 😢😢 that moment got to me when i first watched it but broke me when i re-watched it after my dad past away
What we can learn from "The Golden Girls" episode "72 Hours" is that H.I.V/ A.I.D.S is bad enough in and of itself; but two things make A.I.D.S even worse: Ignorance and Fear.
Ah yes, the "rabies" episode of "Scrubs" never fails to make me sob, especially when the Fray's "How to Save a Life" starts playing over Cox failing to resuscitate his patients. It's just so shocking to see the normally cocky Cox breakdown. And when J.D. repeats Cox's words of "Once you start blaming yourself for other people's deaths, there's no going back" right back to him, John C. McGinley's sobering "Yeah, you're right", gets me every single time!
@@falkner9072 Well, I guess it's treatable when you're otherwise healthy and robust, but those patients were very sick, that's why they needed the donation. Plus, an organ donation is already risky when the organ is healthy, so I guess, the sick bodies having to deal with a new organ and rabies was just too much.
It's Ironic that "That's So Raven " was about Negrophobia/Racism as Raven Symone publicly stated that she would never hire someone with the name Shaniqua or Dejeuner.(Not the exact names but you know what I mean)
Bens death from Scrubs. Dr. Cox blames JD and imagines Ben throughout the episode to cope with his death until the end when they are at Bens funeral when he is imagining its his kids birthday party.
Oh I was in tears for that one, especially when they played the painfully sad song where Cox was taking to "Ben Sullivan." He then finds himself at Ben's gravesite when JD appears looking confused saying"Where do you think you are?" Ben's gone and Cox sits at the front of the funeral between Jordan and JD and starts sobbing.
I don't know why this episode never gets mentioned, but it's the Archie Bunker's Place episode where we learn the details of Edith's untimely death. Archie sits on the bed where Edith had died, finding one of her slippers. He talks about waking up to Edith quietly sleeping while he went downstairs to make her breakfast. He brought it upstairs to wake her up. She didn't wake up again because she had a stroke. Archie Bunker holding Edith's slipper breaks down and cries like a baby he could barely speak. It was very unnerving to watch and I think I cried as much as Archie, watching *him* go to pieces like that.
I know that the scene when Shawn's father Dies was very sad but for it to be number one on this list is misplaced compared to the other very heartbreaking & deep scenes on this list.
Word. I was looking for this comment. Chet was never around because he abandoned Shawn over and over. I didn't shed one tear when he died. Shawn almost joining that cult or trying to become an alcoholic were much darker storylines.
Overrated Sitcom. It's Been Rated Too Highly. Noone Talks About Characters Going Through Violence. Then I Found Put Shawn's Father Died From An Alcoholic Heart Attack. It Was Time For Him To Go Home. On Family Matters, Rachel's Husband Which I Found Out How He Died, Was Sadder. He Had Been Killed. How Often Do Sitcoms Deal With Murders Of Family Members And Main Characters? I Never Seen It. Family Matters Had That Much Guts. The Writers Believed The World Wasn't Ready. And In Family Matters Final Episode, That Nuclear Satellite, Steve Saved The World. The Writers Didn't Think The World Was Ready.
I think it was mostly because Shawn was finally getting a dad after so long of being alone without a parent/parents that is what made it so sadder then it actually was
The Roseanne episode "War and Peace" (I think) when it turns out Jackie's boyfriend had been beating her. Everything from Darlene walking in on her and seeing the bruises, Dan getting arrested for beating up Booker, Jackie feeling it's her own fault for provoking her boyfriend, is absolutely chilling for anyone who has experienced domestic violence.
It's a two-part episode. Part one is called "Crime and Punishment" and it is where Jackie reveals that her boyfriend is abusive to her and Dan goes to beat up Fisher (Jackie's boyfriend.) Part two is called "War and Peace" where Dan is arrested for assault.
Decades later I realize that was the wrong message. Carlton bought a gun to protect himself. He wasn't about to just go kill some random. And they basically told him he doesn't need it. Will could have died. Maybe a gun could've prevented it. The lesson was basically enjoy your life. Don't worry about defending yourself lol.
YES. One of Reggie Vel Johnson's finest moments if not his finest acting moment. His monologue vs the cops at end was so damn badass. Shame he got ignored for awards over that.. it may have been a sentimental show but when it went hard it did it and did it well.
Boy Meets World had many dark moments. Shawn’s mom leaving multiple times. Then his dad leaving him with Cory’s family. Mr. Turner’s open ending. Shawn being rejected by a girl because of where his family is from. Claire, the girl that had an abusive father, so Cory and Shawn take her in to their respective homes. Shawn’s alcoholism and when he pushes Angela. BMW tackled a lot.
@@notaytguru8214 What DIDN'T happen to Pheobe? A person who actually watches the show would probably give you a better, more detailed answer, but from the videos i've seen; her mother committed suicide, she grew up homeless, she battled hepatitis, her step dad went to prison, she has a twin sister who does porn and they aren't on speaking terms, her biological father left her and then there's a bunch of sadder littler stuff along the way too
That death in "8 simple rules" was on the last list I never watched it that much as I was a bit smaller but I remember that happening I was young but I was old enough to understand what happend and I was so sad
i loved 8 simple rules mainly for john ritter. i had grown up watching him in reruns of three's company which his character of jack tripper always made me laugh till i cried whenever i was feeling down.. i also grew up with him as the voice of clifford the big red dog so naturally i was drawn to 8 simple rules because he was in it.. i remember exactly where i was when i heard he had died.. i was in an applebee's with some friends waiting for a table when it came up on the news station that was on at the time.. it really hit me hard and he was one of the first celebrity deaths that made me cry. until robin williams that is... i almost couldn't get through the episode of 8 simple rules that followed his death and the episode made me cry all over again knowing that it was his real death and seeing all the actors cry as well knowing they most likely were real tears instead of them acting. i also just noticed that the show was recently put onto disney+ and was thinking about watching it again until i came across the synopsis for the episode regarding his character's death and it saddened me. i honestly may still watch it in his memory just as i do with three's company whenever it comes on.
I will try to help explain as best I can. Peter sees the movie Roadhouse at a video store and buys it. He watches it, and at the end, Swayze stares straight-faced at the camera and says, “Roadhouse.” Peter is inspired by Swayze’s grit, so he’s on kind of a movie high. He proceeds to do careless or violent things, and as soon as he does them, he stares straight at the camera and says, “Roadhouse.” I’m sorry it was a long explanation. Look it up in a video if you need a better example. ROADHOUSE.
@@briestoll9329 yo everybody has different definitions of clickbait, this is what the internet defines it as and what's also the definition of it to me: "clickbait /ˈklɪkbeɪt/ nounINFORMAL (on the Internet) content whose main purpose is to attract attention and encourage visitors to click on a link to a particular web page." so to me it applies, you can disagree, I don't care
Tom Hanks as Alex's alcoholic uncle on Family Ties was pretty sad. Hard to watch the part where he's trying to drink vanilla extract in the kitchen pantry.
Another episode that never fails to make me cry is the one where Alex's friend dies in a car accident. Alex was talking to somebody that I don't remember seeing but it was powerful acting.
@@carlyedwards1422 One of my favorites is when Dan sacrificed his relationship with his brother but not before setting Dr. Cox straight about his attitude around J.D.
Yes, that episode of Boy Meets World gets me every time. I never cease to cry like a baby during the scene and the next one where the dr comes out and tells Shawn and Jack that he died. *cries* I love that the Fresh Prince scene was on here, though, because it is one of my favorite episodes of the series. Very powerful.
Definitely! Jodie overdosing, or Majorie battling cancer(or her husband Victor having a stroke then passing away) or Bonnie relapsing! There is so many to choose from
@@trinaq Yes. More transgender people are more comfortable about their sexuality. I love it! We all have a right to be who we want to be. I'm heterosexual myself but I like transgender people. More people should to.
@@babycakes1658 They have the right to be who they want, yes. Just don't force sane people to feed into their delusion is the only problem that exists.
@@TheStranger513 No man can force someone to believe in anything. I'm a realist. I go by what I can see or touch. They are not a delusional group of people. What we see is not an illusion or delusional. Not acknowledging is delusional. If you acknowledge it, accept it.
@@babycakes1658 Lol you're a realist. People out here are literally one gender but saying they are the other. So yes, I acknowledge the delusion. You seem sold on it lol. But the majority of us will not play the gender game.
I remember this sitcom called 'Mom' with Anna Faris and Allison Janney, there was this teenager called Jodi, played by Emily Osment, she had trouble staying sober and staying away from drugs. She finally overcame and stayed sober for a long while, but...during one episode, we got to know that Jodi died of a drug overdose and when I heard that, I froze in shock. That moment felt so dark and so tragic, I had no idea how to react, honestly. Also one dark sitcom moment - When Howard's mother (The Big Bang Theory) dies :/
Yeah, this show was full of them. Another awful one for me was when Jill had her miscarriage, and her ensuing depression. I've miscarried myself, and while I might not have been able to care for the baby myself (I'm a college student and the baby wasn't conceived consensually), I do want children and knowing that happened still hurts me even a few months later. I know a woman who misses her baby she miscarried and it's been years. That one hit me hard, especially after I suffered that myself. God this show knew how to be funny and how to rip out my heart lol
Dang. I'm surprised Roseanne didn't get at least a shout-out. The episode where Fisher beats Aunt Jackie was definitely an episode that touched on some darkness.
What about the episode where DJ starves herself into exhaustion because she doesn't feel pretty enough in a bathing suit for kimmys birthday. She even makes a promise to Stephanie she would eat something and then the second Stephanie leaves the room unbeknownst to Dj just hiding on the stairs watches DJ immediately give her food to Comet. Or the episode where Stephanie almost gets in a car accident but thanks to dannt putting his foot down she misses the event while her friends are hospitalized and one of them actually dies.
That one. Love Taps where Gina gets beat up by her boyfriend and tries to cover for him. But I think the top one would be the episode with Tisha Campbell saying she has aids and admits that she won't live very long.
Saddest moment from mash for me was Henry Blake’s death, I know the last episode was depressing but when radar tells them that Henry’s plane got shot down, was worse imo.
The sometimes your hear the bullet episode was also pretty heavy. Rule number one young men die and rule number two doctors can't change rule number one
I can't believe you didn't mention Jake's and Amy's dialogue with Terry's daughter in #9. To me, this sealed the brilliant delivery of the episode. When a pre-school girl asks "So it's bad to be Black?", you gotta be terrified about the whole situation.
I thought of one. On “Happy Days” Ritchie has a motorcycle accident and Fonzie breaks down in tears, calling Ritchie his best friend and praying he doesn’t die.
Both All In The Family and M*A*S*H has a deep pool of dark moments. From Gloria getting molested and Edith dying to, well, everything in M*A*S*H which is basically about finding a reason to go one more day without losing the will to live. This list deserves a part two for those two shows alone. Great list though. I've seen at least eight of those episodes and Chet dying really got to me when I first watched it.
I'm so glad that Dr Cox breakdown make it on this list because it was not just heart-breaking but also a brilliant episode too, can you please do a top 10 Scrubs episodes or moments I love that show and I miss it so much
Shaun's dad dying in that episode really proved why Boy Meets World was more then just a comedy it felt so real compared to other shows at the time i lost my dad at 10 years old
There was also one time where someone painted a racial slur on Laura's locker when she was having people sign petitions to get a class based on Black History.
That whole show had dark moments...Elena getting rejected by her own dad when she came out as lesbian, Alex being told to go back to Mexico for speaking Spanish, Lydia revealing that her oldest sister had to stay behind in Cuba because she was too old to leave on the same flight Lydia did, Lydia's stroke, Elena and her girlfriend getting sexually harassed by guys
A hard episode in All In The Family, was when Edith dies, and it hits Archie. When he holds her slipper and sits on the bed he says crying "It wasn't supposed to be this way"
That Boy Meets World Episode guts me every time-not only for Shawn, but for Jack too. Jack had just got to know Chet as his father, as Jack was raised by his mom and stepdad. When the Doctor tells them “We lost him”, it just rips my heart out. Also great mention of that Fresh Prince Episode, that was a powerful scene...and Will emptying the gun on the bed and breaking down in tears was just gut wrenching
Thank you for including this because I thought it would be on the other list and it surprised me when it wasn’t b/c this, Shawn’s speech before this and Shawn’s speech in “Cult Fiction” are some of Shawn’s most important and powerfully emotional moments in the show. I wanted the “Cult Fiction” moment on the list too so I am including that speech in this comment in case you want to use it for a future list “John, how could you be in here? How could you screw up on your bike? I’ve never seen you screw up on anything. I’m the screw-up remember, C’mon John you remember....Don’t do this to me John, I don’t do alone real good. I know you’re in there but it’s like you’re not really here. You’re not talking but I know you’re here. So I’m gonna talk and you can listen. John even when I was at the Centre,it was all the things you taught me that made me wonder if it was the right place for me or not, but you didn’t teach me enough. You and Cory and my parents and the Matthews and the handful of people who really care about me, So don’t blow me off John! Don’t blow me off God! I never asked you for anything and I never wanted to come to you like this but don’t take Turner away from me he’s not done yelling at me yet, God you’re not talking but I know you’re here, so I’m gonna talk and you can listen. God I don’t wanna be empty inside anymore.” This is so powerful b/c Shawn is practically in tears the whole time.
i reckon the episode of HOME IMPROVEMENT, where Randy gets a health scare shouldgeta mention too, along with the episode of BECKER where he helps a grieving mother who lost her son in 9/11, has trouble getting to the ground zerolocation via subway
That moment when Florida loses it is such a real moment. Sometimes it just hits you out of nowhere. I was in such a state of shock when my mother died, I really didn't break down like that for months.
I love Terry Cruz so much he is such a man in every sense of the word. My heart broke and burst at the same time when I heard his testimony, he is so brave and I know that’s not easy for a man
I only connected it when I got older, but That's So Raven just did the same episode as Smart Guy, but with more comedy. I think you should've included Smart Guy instead.

Omg, both of those episodes are still so hard for me to watch.
To be fair though, by that point Boy Meets World was hardly a comedy series anymore.

The pocket dial moment should have been on the list, where Marshall freaks out about not hearing his dad's last words to him. Soooo sad!
I think that's in the first video.
Damn u brought back memories of me and my ex from 8 year's ago 🕳️🚶😭😔
Jina Koffi it isn‘t
And the fact that Marshal's reaction was not scripted, is making that scene even more epic.
I can not believe One Day At A Time didn't made the list. They are tackling really serious subjects like refugee, addiction or harassment
Yaaas I so agree. They handle some tough things
I believe they made the last list. I’m not positive though
Your right. Watch MOJO really needs to expand their research areas
Because that is EVERY episode of the show.
Dude..then it's not a comedy show..
What we can learn from "The Golden Girls" episode "72 Hours" is that H.I.V/ A.I.D.S is bad enough in and of itself; but two things make A.I.D.S even worse: Ignorance and Fear.

The Roseanne episode "War and Peace" (I think) when it turns out Jackie's boyfriend had been beating her. Everything from Darlene walking in on her and seeing the bruises, Dan getting arrested for beating up Booker, Jackie feeling it's her own fault for provoking her boyfriend, is absolutely chilling for anyone who has experienced domestic violence.
It's a two-part episode. Part one is called "Crime and Punishment" and it is where Jackie reveals that her boyfriend is abusive to her and Dan goes to beat up Fisher (Jackie's boyfriend.) Part two is called "War and Peace" where Dan is arrested for assault.
They need to replay that Prince of Bel Air episode again. We need it about this time. That and the Family Matter's episode.
Decades later I realize that was the wrong message. Carlton bought a gun to protect himself. He wasn't about to just go kill some random. And they basically told him he doesn't need it. Will could have died. Maybe a gun could've prevented it. The lesson was basically enjoy your life. Don't worry about defending yourself lol.
The Family Matters episode where Eddie is racially profiled by cops.
There was also a Fresh Prince episode that tackled racial profiling when Will and Carlton get pulled over by cops
The irony with that is that Eddie's dad, Carl, was a cop.
@@dhenderson1810 Just like it was ironic that Uncle Phil was a lawyer, and Will and Carlton were racially profiled.
YES. One of Reggie Vel Johnson's finest moments if not his finest acting moment. His monologue vs the cops at end was so damn badass. Shame he got ignored for awards over that.. it may have been a sentimental show but when it went hard it did it and did it well.
@@efan2012 it’s also ironic that he also played a cop opposite Bruce Willis in the movie die hard
Been waiting for another dark sitcom list ❤️
Boy Meets World had many dark moments. Shawn’s mom leaving multiple times. Then his dad leaving him with Cory’s family. Mr. Turner’s open ending. Shawn being rejected by a girl because of where his family is from. Claire, the girl that had an abusive father, so Cory and Shawn take her in to their respective homes. Shawn’s alcoholism and when he pushes Angela. BMW tackled a lot.
How about sad sitcom character backstories?
Sarah Venable Phoebe from Friends would win in a heartbeat😂
Niles Crane in the running for that
Jacob Rickayzen what happened to phoebe? 🤷🏽♀️
@@notaytguru8214 What DIDN'T happen to Pheobe? A person who actually watches the show would probably give you a better, more detailed answer, but from the videos i've seen; her mother committed suicide, she grew up homeless, she battled hepatitis, her step dad went to prison, she has a twin sister who does porn and they aren't on speaking terms, her biological father left her and then there's a bunch of sadder littler stuff along the way too
Jacob Rickayzen oh wow, I just watch random reruns, phoebe is my favorite though.
For me, death of dad(john Ritter) in "8 simple rules" is the darkest moment in sitcom. Also Roseanne has a series of such moments
Akshay H I cried so hard.
That death in "8 simple rules" was on the last list I never watched it that much as I was a bit smaller but I remember that happening I was young but I was old enough to understand what happend and I was so sad
Those moments are in part 1
i loved 8 simple rules mainly for john ritter. i had grown up watching him in reruns of three's company which his character of jack tripper always made me laugh till i cried whenever i was feeling down.. i also grew up with him as the voice of clifford the big red dog so naturally i was drawn to 8 simple rules because he was in it.. i remember exactly where i was when i heard he had died.. i was in an applebee's with some friends waiting for a table when it came up on the news station that was on at the time.. it really hit me hard and he was one of the first celebrity deaths that made me cry. until robin williams that is... i almost couldn't get through the episode of 8 simple rules that followed his death and the episode made me cry all over again knowing that it was his real death and seeing all the actors cry as well knowing they most likely were real tears instead of them acting. i also just noticed that the show was recently put onto disney+ and was thinking about watching it again until i came across the synopsis for the episode regarding his character's death and it saddened me. i honestly may still watch it in his memory just as i do with three's company whenever it comes on.
When wills dad walked out again in fresh prince was powerful
Apparently after that monologue and uncle Phil comforts will James Avery whispered into his ear. Now That’s acting!
That was on three other list
Ben's death on Scrubs always gets me. The line "where do you think we are?" is burned into my mind forever.
What about when my name is Earl got cancelled....... It's been ten years and I'm still not over it
Roadhouse
I need somebody to explain this joke to me.
@@NicholeSnickers23 it's not a joke i really miss my name is Earl
Roadhouse
I wish Peter were here so he could explain this joke to you.... u/PeterExplainsTheJoke where you at!?
If any show needs a reboot It's My name is Earl I would settle for a movie
I will try to help explain as best I can. Peter sees the movie Roadhouse at a video store and buys it. He watches it, and at the end, Swayze stares straight-faced at the camera and says, “Roadhouse.” Peter is inspired by Swayze’s grit, so he’s on kind of a movie high. He proceeds to do careless or violent things, and as soon as he does them, he stares straight at the camera and says, “Roadhouse.” I’m sorry it was a long explanation. Look it up in a video if you need a better example. ROADHOUSE.
clickbaiting with a Nine-Nine thumbnail, huh? Well it's working, I clicked ;)
Its in the video . not clickbait
@@briestoll9329 lol that's what i was going to say.
You don't know what clickbait is.
@@briestoll9329 yo everybody has different definitions of clickbait, this is what the internet defines it as and what's also the definition of it to me:
"clickbait
/ˈklɪkbeɪt/
nounINFORMAL
(on the Internet) content whose main purpose is to attract attention and encourage visitors to click on a link to a particular web page."
so to me it applies, you can disagree, I don't care
ihavemoreshipsthanthenavy 99 The mental gymnastics just to avoid being possibly incorrect is astonishing.
Laura’s Friend who was shot in Family Matters also played Shawn’s Girlfriend Angela in Boy Meets World.
I KNEW that was her!
Also, Raven's friend in that clip was 3J in Family Matters
Tom Hanks as Alex's alcoholic uncle on Family Ties was pretty sad. Hard to watch the part where he's trying to drink vanilla extract in the kitchen pantry.
Another episode that never fails to make me cry is the one where Alex's friend dies in a car accident. Alex was talking to somebody that I don't remember seeing but it was powerful acting.
Dr Cox's breakdown was heartbreaking. It is every single time I see it.
The one where his friend played by Brendan Fraiser dies is pretty powerful too. Scrubs had a lot of really deep emotional moments for a sitcom.
I love that this channel actually read the comments from the previous video. And added this second one
Scrubs deserves its own list of heartbreaking moments!
little carpenter 👍
It really does. Ben's death, my lunch, Laverne's death, the one where JD and Turk stay with the dying guy all night... So many
I agree. Same with MASH.
@@carlyedwards1422 One of my favorites is when Dan sacrificed his relationship with his brother but not before setting Dr. Cox straight about his attitude around J.D.
Aaah! Don't get me started on MASH, I'm already emotional enough.
... Also, there could never be a list to contain it.
So...
7:20 & 9:00 Same actress
Laura's friend in #3 is Shawn's girlfriend in #1. Trina Mcgee was on fire in the 1990s.
HOLY SHIT, I've seen reruns of both shows numerous times and I never noticed that. Thanks for the mindblowing revelation!
She was also one of the 3 women tht came at the party in Friday After Next
Thank you!
The That’s so Raven episode is kind of ironic because I remember Raven saying that she wouldn’t hire anybody with Ethnic names.
Yes, that episode of Boy Meets World gets me every time. I never cease to cry like a baby during the scene and the next one where the dr comes out and tells Shawn and Jack that he died. *cries* I love that the Fresh Prince scene was on here, though, because it is one of my favorite episodes of the series. Very powerful.
I loved the B99 episode "Moo Moo" ... besides, Terry is now a Lieutenant!!!
And he damn well deserves it too!
@@wuzzy41123 So Terry & Holt may the right decision to submit the report and be patient for another opportunity to happen!!!
A sitcom with many dark moments is Mom and I feel you could make a list of those moments
Holy Shit, the amount in that show...
Definitely! Jodie overdosing, or Majorie battling cancer(or her husband Victor having a stroke then passing away) or Bonnie relapsing! There is so many to choose from
I remember that episode "Beverly " was Edith transgender friend. That was a rough moment for Edith.
I know, kudos to "All in the Family" for spreading awareness of the transgender community in the 1980's, long before it was made widespread. 😊
@@trinaq Yes. More transgender people are more comfortable about their sexuality. I love it! We all have a right to be who we want to be. I'm heterosexual myself but I like transgender people. More people should to.
@@babycakes1658 They have the right to be who they want, yes. Just don't force sane people to feed into their delusion is the only problem that exists.
@@TheStranger513 No man can force someone to believe in anything. I'm a realist. I go by what I can see or touch. They are not a delusional group of people. What we see is not an illusion or delusional. Not acknowledging is delusional. If you acknowledge it, accept it.
@@babycakes1658 Lol you're a realist. People out here are literally one gender but saying they are the other. So yes, I acknowledge the delusion. You seem sold on it lol. But the majority of us will not play the gender game.
I honestly thought the thumbnail was a scene from “Everybody hates Chris” because Terry Crews was On ThAt ToO!!!
i thought the exact same thing
SPOILER ALERT FOR SUPERSTORE
It just happened, but Mateo getting deported by ICE.
Simrah Malik I just posted a comment about this one! So heartbreaking 😞
Simrah Malik WHAT? I just started that series.
@@car998 Ahh, I'm so sorry I spoiled you, I'll edit it now. Sorry again!
My job had the show on today and now that I know kinda sad.
The episode of "One Day at a Time"(reboot) when Schneider starts drinking again after 8 years of being sober and hits Alex.
MayForDays i loved that show it sucks that it got cancelled
You could do an entire top 10 list with moments from that show, because there are so many to choose from
I remember this sitcom called 'Mom' with Anna Faris and Allison Janney, there was this teenager called Jodi, played by Emily Osment, she had trouble staying sober and staying away from drugs. She finally overcame and stayed sober for a long while, but...during one episode, we got to know that Jodi died of a drug overdose and when I heard that, I froze in shock.
That moment felt so dark and so tragic, I had no idea how to react, honestly.
Also one dark sitcom moment - When Howard's mother (The Big Bang Theory) dies :/
Yesss big bang theory :( so sad
Yeah, this show was full of them. Another awful one for me was when Jill had her miscarriage, and her ensuing depression. I've miscarried myself, and while I might not have been able to care for the baby myself (I'm a college student and the baby wasn't conceived consensually), I do want children and knowing that happened still hurts me even a few months later. I know a woman who misses her baby she miscarried and it's been years. That one hit me hard, especially after I suffered that myself. God this show knew how to be funny and how to rip out my heart lol
Dang. I'm surprised Roseanne didn't get at least a shout-out. The episode where Fisher beats Aunt Jackie was definitely an episode that touched on some darkness.
That story is in her first video of darkest moments
This ie the second video of darkest moments from this UA-cam channel
That was on the first list.
👌🏽
And that was one of my favorites.
Family Ties when Alex friend dies and also about his uncle being a alcoholic.
The ICE raid from “Superstore” broke my f**king heart. I was hoping that would at least be an honorable mention.
Florida Evans, "damn, damn, damn" was one of the most heartbreaking lines ever delivered.
That scrubs scene was one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite shows.
10/10
Fresh Prince had several dark moments.
John Ritter’s send off episode in 8 Simple Rules was another one that hit hard
Alex Estrada in the first video.
You could fill this list with moments from Scrubs alone.
Sad piano play ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
What about the episode where DJ starves herself into exhaustion because she doesn't feel pretty enough in a bathing suit for kimmys birthday. She even makes a promise to Stephanie she would eat something and then the second Stephanie leaves the room unbeknownst to Dj just hiding on the stairs watches DJ immediately give her food to Comet.
Or the episode where Stephanie almost gets in a car accident but thanks to dannt putting his foot down she misses the event while her friends are hospitalized and one of them actually dies.
It was a equivalent of Different Strokes
Actually no one died in that car accident. You're probably thinking of the girls mother that died before the series started
@@KellySmith-iw6gn it was a car accident
@@superlex611 I know but you said one of them dies from that car accident. No one died on the joyride accident
@@KellySmith-iw6gn thank god Stephanie did'nt join her
A “different World” the N-word on the 🚗 episode at the football game...
That one. Love Taps where Gina gets beat up by her boyfriend and tries to cover for him. But I think the top one would be the episode with Tisha Campbell saying she has aids and admits that she won't live very long.
The Facts of Life had quite a few. Same with M.A.S.H.
Saddest moment from mash for me was Henry Blake’s death, I know the last episode was depressing but when radar tells them that Henry’s plane got shot down, was worse imo.
The sometimes your hear the bullet episode was also pretty heavy.
Rule number one young men die and rule number two doctors can't change rule number one
I can't believe you didn't mention Jake's and Amy's dialogue with Terry's daughter in #9. To me, this sealed the brilliant delivery of the episode. When a pre-school girl asks "So it's bad to be Black?", you gotta be terrified about the whole situation.
I thought of one. On “Happy Days” Ritchie has a motorcycle accident and Fonzie breaks down in tears, calling Ritchie his best friend and praying he doesn’t die.
I wish there's a Top 10 Funniest Moments in Drama Shows video.
Doctor Awesomeness M*A*S*H would make that list
How about The final scenes from Blackadder
That made me cry my eyes out 😭
Now that's depressing
Hell, which one? Every season ends in tragedy.
@@Xone9 Blackadder Goes Forth is perhaps the most infamous one due to the cast dying in battle over No Man's Land in WWI
Both All In The Family and M*A*S*H has a deep pool of dark moments. From Gloria getting molested and Edith dying to, well, everything in M*A*S*H which is basically about finding a reason to go one more day without losing the will to live. This list deserves a part two for those two shows alone. Great list though. I've seen at least eight of those episodes and Chet dying really got to me when I first watched it.
This is part two
I'm so glad that Dr Cox breakdown make it on this list because it was not just heart-breaking but also a brilliant episode too, can you please do a top 10 Scrubs episodes or moments I love that show and I miss it so much
Dark sitcoms lists are one of my favorites of WatchMojo and MsMojo
I just realized that the first one was parodied by family guy
Not really a parody if it's just doing the exact same thing, just lazy referencing
I totally agree with this list! I love that you include sitcoms from all different eras! :)
Terry loves being a detective, but Terry also loves being the man he is. Don't mess with Sgt./Lieutenant Terry Jeffords. NINE NINE!
I'm not crying...i....I accidentally poked myself on the eye. And I have allergies.
I found the That's So Raven episode funny and just controversial enough to be understood by me when I watched it at 11
Terry Crews is the Man. Great Actor with great roles.
Shaun's dad dying in that episode really proved why Boy Meets World was more then just a comedy it felt so real compared to other shows at the time i lost my dad at 10 years old
I feel like there were a few on Family Matters
The two gang episodes, the one were Steve got drunk and almost died, the racist cops and Eddie. Probably more.
@@miaya.micronis I think I was thinking about the drunk Steve one
There was also one time where someone painted a racial slur on Laura's locker when she was having people sign petitions to get a class based on Black History.
@Abel Lewis 27 Steve Urkel was not that shocking but it was a setup, Eddie racially arrested was equally close to the gun
@Abel Lewis 27 true
Jodi's overdose/death on the show "Mom" will always get me.
How could James' death in Good Times not top this list?!
That's because James death is on the other list read it says another top 10
One Day at a Time Reboot: When Schneider yells at Alex cause he's drunk and that whole episode. Also: Hello Penelope....
That whole show had dark moments...Elena getting rejected by her own dad when she came out as lesbian, Alex being told to go back to Mexico for speaking Spanish, Lydia revealing that her oldest sister had to stay behind in Cuba because she was too old to leave on the same flight Lydia did, Lydia's stroke, Elena and her girlfriend getting sexually harassed by guys
Cox's breakdown was actually inspired by a true story.
A hard episode in All In The Family, was when Edith dies, and it hits Archie. When he holds her slipper and sits on the bed he says crying "It wasn't supposed to be this way"
Absolutely heartbreaking 💔
“So excited, I’m so excited, I’m so excited, I’m so ... scared!”
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Darkly funny
That Boy Meets World Episode guts me every time-not only for Shawn, but for Jack too. Jack had just got to know Chet as his father, as Jack was raised by his mom and stepdad. When the Doctor tells them “We lost him”, it just rips my heart out. Also great mention of that Fresh Prince Episode, that was a powerful scene...and Will emptying the gun on the bed and breaking down in tears was just gut wrenching
Carlton has had some damn good scenes.
Thank you for including this because I thought it would be on the other list and it surprised me when it wasn’t b/c this, Shawn’s speech before this and Shawn’s speech in “Cult Fiction” are some of Shawn’s most important and powerfully emotional moments in the show. I wanted the “Cult Fiction” moment on the list too so I am including that speech in this comment in case you want to use it for a future list “John, how could you be in here? How could you screw up on your bike? I’ve never seen you screw up on anything. I’m the screw-up remember, C’mon John you remember....Don’t do this to me John, I don’t do alone real good. I know you’re in there but it’s like you’re not really here. You’re not talking but I know you’re here. So I’m gonna talk and you can listen. John even when I was at the Centre,it was all the things you taught me that made me wonder if it was the right place for me or not, but you didn’t teach me enough. You and Cory and my parents and the Matthews and the handful of people who really care about me, So don’t blow me off John! Don’t blow me off God! I never asked you for anything and I never wanted to come to you like this but don’t take Turner away from me he’s not done yelling at me yet, God you’re not talking but I know you’re here, so I’m gonna talk and you can listen. God I don’t wanna be empty inside anymore.” This is so powerful
b/c Shawn is practically in tears the whole time.
The end of Blackadder series 4, where they leave the trenches. Probably the best sitcom moment ever.
I saw the family guy version of the “IM SO EXCITED!” And I busted out laughing and it ruined the actual scene
The entirety of One Day at a Time should be on here
i reckon the episode of HOME IMPROVEMENT, where Randy gets a health scare shouldgeta mention too, along with the episode of BECKER where he helps a grieving mother who lost her son in 9/11, has trouble getting to the ground zerolocation via subway
The moments in the Superstore season 4 finale when everyone was fighting to protect Mateo from being deported by ICE, but he gives himself up.
Samuel Welch oh man when Mateo just tells them to stop trying hurt me.
2:12 I like that pause Rosa has when she's realized what's going on
Didn’t Rosanne tell off her daughter’s boyfriend’s mom who was a junkie
Miguel Avendano and then Roseanne was racist
That moment when Florida loses it is such a real moment. Sometimes it just hits you out of nowhere. I was in such a state of shock when my mother died, I really didn't break down like that for months.
50 Million Dollars For That Boy!? 3:14
Me: Here Yall Go I Found Him!
I love Terry Cruz so much he is such a man in every sense of the word. My heart broke and burst at the same time when I heard his testimony, he is so brave and I know that’s not easy for a man
What about that episode on Moesha when Frank tells Dorian that he's his biological father
That few seconds of Shawn's dad dying really got me! That was such a good show!
I think the episode where Carlton was taking speed had more of an effect then the episode he buys a gun.
Bro, the end of chuck broke my heart. Make an entire video for it😂😂
I only connected it when I got older, but That's So Raven just did the same episode as Smart Guy, but with more comedy. I think you should've included Smart Guy instead.
