Interesting change in perspective. +1 for being deep.

Diff'rent Strokes where Dudley gets molested. All in the Family where Edith gets sexually assaulted.
Horus175
AITF handled that one pretty badly by modern standards, though. At one point Edith has a panic attack and the laugh track goes off.

"All In The Family is filmed before a live studio audience" Said at the closing credits.

Never seen the Family Matters one. Shit got real

That's the one episode I'll skip most of the time when I rewatch the show. It still breaks my heart.

When he says "it can't be over" and she says "then how come it is". kills me. KILLS ME. I'm crying now.

He was jealous and drunk, and she invited the guy he was jealous of inside. He heard him answer the phone, and jumped to conclusions.

"WE WERE ON A BREAK!" - Ross, every single time.

harles2000
it is if you're a parent. Having to confront your childs sexual activity head on, unexpectedly, that's some heavy stuff for a parent.
ToastyPotato
Teen pregnancy was a huge issue in the 90s. The numbers are down today, but it was a big deal like smoking and drugs for shows.

There might not have a laugh track but when Buffy find her mom dead in the living room...
IsuckAsthis
Was marathoning Buffy when my dad died, got home from funeral and turns out I was up to that episode. Sucked to say the least.
DarthSuraTheSavage
Funny how life seems to work like that.. Sorry for your loss
TheWorldEndsWithYou
Got to that episode when my friend died from a similar way. Was not fun but it's a beautiful episode
ImAnSJW
Ugh Anya's speech in the following episode got me real good.
Mythosjunkie
"I don't understand!" Yeah, it gets me every time I see it
mooncactus
Mom? Mom? ...mommy..?
captainlavender
You're a monster! I've watched every episode a million times. I skip that one.
neogreenlantern
Anya's freak out really got to me.
rufio42
That's one of my favourite episodes. Not because Joyce died, but because of how well done it was. And it was completely silent
CountessVonFingerbang
Oh god, I was marathoning Buffy a few months after my dad died. I forgot that one was coming. WAS NOT PREPARED.
MrTummy
I don't think you can be... it caught me so off guard...
bazlovechild
Yeah, that would really be hard to sit through. Totally too soon. (sorry about your dad)
margaretolson
That episode and the one after it still make me sob. "When I stop--it means she's really gone." UGH
jenlovesmemes
I was like that after my dad. I watched that episode over and over until I could cry no more. It helped.
margaretolson
:( *hug*
jenlovesmemes
Thanks it's been 3 1/2 years but it's still hurts when I ever I'm reminded of him.
bazlovechild
This. Fucking. Broke. Me.
MrTummy
Oh yeah 100% still makes me tear up thinking about it...
bazlovechild
I introduced my best friend to the series last year. This was the only episode where I prepped her first (her mom was battling cancer).
MrTummy
Yeah that shit would have nearly killed her...
DieterPinklage
MRW I see this comment
DonnaNobleHasLeftTheLibrary
I re-watched the entire series recently and got that episode while I was PMSing & I sobbed alone on my couch eating cookies when it was over
LatverianXPrincess
Dude..."The Body" actually helped me cope with losing my dad earlier this year.
MrTummy
I'm sorry but I'm glad it helped you...

MrTummy
Sorry Bae :-(
Momof2needsabreak
That episode always gets to me.
notmyrealface
I literally broke down sobbing at this episode. My mom had died recently. One of the cries where you can't catch your breathe.
MrTummy
Yeah I cried like a little bitch during it... it comes out of fucking nowhere and was just a kick in the chest...
lesbianyellowsourfruit
dude, spoiler alert that shit!
MrTummy
Even "spoiling" it won't prepare you for that episode... I cried like a bitch...
Gryphon17
It's been years!
Kitastrophe
I never watched the show. What got her mom dead?
ItchySweater
Cause of death was mundane. It's the tone of the episode that's really, really chilling. It's excellent television, I recommend it.
Kitastrophe
So she just suddenly dies for some random, boring reason?
AlbertoMX
She had a normal death. Which means it was sudden with no warning and caught Buffy completely unprepared for it. So it hurt watching it.
ItchySweater
SPOILERS are in the reply to this comment...
ItchySweater
She had a brain anuerism. The previous episode cliffhanger, Buffy finds her on the couch, then next ep is about the aftermath of finding her
ItchySweater
Yes, actually!
Kitastrophe
Like that girl didn't have enough problems. Perfectly healthy middle age mom just keeling over like that
Snooj
My parents and I had a huge fight about homosexuality the same day that Dan's friend came out of the closet on Roseanne. That was tense.
BlueBomber05
Did you eventually convince your progressive parents that homosexuality is wrong?
Snooj
I almost answered you earnestly before I realized what you did. Sneaky.
Snooj
Also I remember watching the series finale of MASH. The Goodbye on the ground as Hawkeye left made me cry.
jjchum03
Omg, the episode where Henry Blake dies. That was his name, right?
officerjt
Yes that was his name.

Chicken death... ~sobs~

ThatOneGuyAzazel
I forgot about all of these. I don't even think I've seen the gun episode of Fresh Prince. Heavy shit
obieobiedo
Highly recommend it. It must've been some 15 years since I've watched, I still remember THE scene.
Dystopiana
I haven't either...and its making me wonder if I can find a source to watch them online...
CynicalButton
Netflix has the all the seasons
Xaldyn
How have you not seen that one!? It's so unbelievably jarring. The episode literally just ends with Will crying into his hands.
Hybris51129
Its a really depressing episode now that I'm old enough to understand it. Concealed carry saves lives and its not something to be demonized.
dangerkitty
They weren't. It was more that Will saw Carl - a dude who had everything to lose through a mistake - buy a gun and respond in the same 1/2
dangerkitty
way as the friends he lost in the ghetto. That Carl, who wouldn't hurt a fly, was so full of fear that he brought a deadly weapon. That 2/3
dangerkitty
Will was seeing Carl, a guy about as innocent and naive as you could get, lose his innocence. 3//3
Adthay
I love guns but he was carrying it out of straight fear and Will helped him. If he kept it it would have been a totem of fear

That episode... the acting they pulled off I tell you! Right in the feels...
ClapClapClapClapClapClap
That's the ting, I don't think it was acting.
Hsid
It wasn't acting. The scene called for Will to just shrug it off like nothing happened. But he was reminded of his own childhood....
ThatGuyYouMetOnTheBus
That's actually not really true. It was just really good acting.
AutomatedLady
This was another one that really broke my heart... :(
lokeanpriest
F-fuck you, man.

GOD DAMN IT DUDE WHY
mooncactus
That episode (and the one where carlton almost OD's) really displayed the awesomeness of Will Smith's acting.
Muttons1337
THIS is the one I love. And no one ever mentions it here on imgur.
dangerkitty
Will was actually improving in this case based off his own actual experiences. Less acting, more his actual feelings.
SuloBruh
Not true, he knew his dad bis whole childhood and was raised by him.

Fresh Prince. Will's dad comes in for an ep and leaves again at the end. It hits Will pretty hard.

The Scrubs episode where Dr Cox makes the wrong decision and kills three patients.

All medical shows get one free A+ episode when they play "How to Save a Life". Scrubs fucking aced theirs though.

God. That episode was rough. A+ fucking acting on everyones part.
Carger
I still tear up a little bit sometimes when I hear "How to Save a Life."
TrixieH0bbitses
Christ, I had forgotten about that.
MimzytheBun
Dr. Cox = best character for so many reasons. I loved him, hated him, wanted to take his tiny broken heart and feed it chicken noodle soup.
Beiki
One of the reasons why Scrubs is considered the most realistic medical show.
groversleeves
Which is why that episode kills me because the donation process in that episode is so off. Usually they are fairly spot on.
DMGuy
To be fair, Scrubs is generally playing to slightly older demographic than most of these. It's marketed as a dramedy for adults.

I'm guilty as well. I remember how corny the original BMW was early on and see GMW maturing too.
kingjamesversion2point0
It's cheesy but worth it to have all that adult closure. Shawn's breakup with Angela and how that leads into this story is great.

Early BMW was cheesy too. You can see GMW maturing as it progresses, as well.

Nothing inherently wrong with it but as a teen? It could very quickly lead to sex which could then lead to unwanted teen pregnancy.
oglehole
but his parents were home. thats not really something you can do sneakily

It's also why you may hear parents say "Keep your door open", that way no sexy-times can happen.
