oh my god what a show my head is just spinning. I was toatly laughing my ass off when the different strokes thing came up well I guess different strokes ment something else that time around I about died 5 min. straight I was laughing my ass off. then goes right to black Thursday I think nbc should have tried black Friday instead. then you could have had the tv show amen with Sherman Hemsley rember he played a minster on that show then you could have had 227 and then different strokes. I remeber watching a cross over episode of mannix and diagnosis murder I cant really rember the details I just rember it . there is another cross over that would have been interesting welcome back kotter and the waverly wanders with joe Namath charlies angels had crossovers with the love boat a few times. hey guys the next show one of u could talk about the greatest tv bullies wether u saw the bullies or not u know like the gootch from different strokes. or you could talk about tv dads who were actullay gay off camera for example lumpys dad on leave it to beaver. I could imagine lumpy asking his dad hey daddy if your gay why am I here. that's all for now guys see u soon I hope don't make it to long now I need more best episode fix Jamie.

Ah, yes, crossovers. Didn't the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew have a few crossover episodes--the kind where they'd be crossing over into each others show in the same evening? Those were pretty seamless, IIRC--of course, they were basically the same show with different names and actors. (Or were those out of the correct time period?)

I can't believe I missed this episode. The opening credit sequence was done by Hannah - Barbera. So Sam and Darrin (Dick York) appeared as themselves on The Flintstones. No last name were ever mentioned. I vaguely remembered the one with Bonanza. I watched the Love Boat-Fantasy Island recently. One was aired on CHCH and the other one was on my DVD. I wasn't able to watch these episodes together or in order, the main story about Loni Anderson's character trying to avoid her real self didn't really flow all that well. Now these other crossovers happened in the 1990s. In 1996, Diff'rent Strokes' Mr. Drummond and Arnold showed up at Fresh Prince as prospective buyers of the Banks house. In 1994, 704 Hauser was short-lived series. It's the house from All in the Family. A black family moves into the house. In the first episode, Gloria's son Joey comes for a visit.

Another St. Elsewhere crossover. Betty White played a recurring character. The John Doe character went into a Mary Tyler Moore phase. This show and other MTM titles appeared on TV in St. Elsewhere. But when John Doe ran into Betty White, he called her Sue Ann.
