What is the funniest episode of any television show you ever saw?

Question

Do you remember an episode of a popular show that had you rolling in the floor?I saw an episode of Frasier once where the brother Niles was ironing and caught his pants and then the couch on fire and ended up knocking himself out.It was about 8 minutes long and he never said a word. It was the funniest thing I ever saw. Also, when Ellen DeGeneres came out of the closet on her sitcom years ago and accidentally announced she was g*y on the intercom system in a busy airport. It was so funny that I've never forgotten it. Also when Will Smith was teaching his niece how to play drums.

Please tell me the funniest show you ever watched and why it was so funny.

(Please try to stick with one of the major prime time networks or I may have no idea what show you are talking about)

Answer 1

I agree with you about the episode of Frazier where Niles set Frazier's apartment on fire.  I rarely laugh out loud at comedy I see on TV, but I remember roaring with laughter at the whole scene...(who'da thought Niles could be that funny??)  

Another of my favorites was from the old Carol Burnett Show where she parodied "Gone With the Wind".  Loved everything she did on her show...wish they would do reruns on Nick at Night or TV Land ~

Answer 2

It was this one three's company episode where Jack went on television to cook a meal, and everything went wrong. I was laughing out loud oh, so hard. It was great xD!

Answer 3

REBA. when she got the wrong POTATO SALAD... HAha im still laughing.

Answer 4

Frasier-- Niles and Frasier go to buy Daphne's engagement ring.  The ppl in the store automatically assume F and N are a couple because of how bougie they are.  They clarify that they are not... Niles is the same ring size as Daphne.  He wears the ring to ensure the fit, Frasier's back goes out..he's on his knee now, Niles is looking at the ring and calls it "exquisite" and that this is what he always wanted..the crowd in the store see F on one knee, N wearing ring and gasping and all start applauding "the couple."

Answer 5

Definetly this...just pure genius, that never will be matched!

Answer 6

I love the episode of Sienfield that runs backwards and Kramer has a lollipop that keeps getting bigger.

At the beginning of the show he's got kind of like just the stick but by the end of the show he's got a full and big round lollipop.

I love that!
