Were proto-creepypastas about fake lost episodes circulating the internet in the early 00s? I always suspected Pigmalion was based on something like Dead Bart when I learned it was a real episode and not a fever dream, but I'm not sure if the timeline adds up.
reminds me of when Jerry was making out with his gf during a showing of Schindler's List. can't blame him tbh. watching israeli girls get slapped around gets me hard too
That fricking dog episode from American dad where Stand gets a dog. There were a couple of season where they just kept doing unnecesarly cruel shit to animals as jokes in both AD and Family guy. But that was a whole episode of depicting horrible animal abuse for no reason
That was so weird cause it's very rare American Dad stops being farce and gets emotional, and this is still when the episode has shit like cat pirates and testicals for eyes
ALF's Special Christmas was a fricking downer with a hospital full of dying kids. The Christmas episode of Doug with Porkchop going to the pound was a downer as well. Basically I don't like melancholy holiday specials.
Holy shit, I never really watched much of this show while I was growing up but I would sometimes catch the odd episode here and there, is this really how it fricking ends? If so that’s so hilariously dark kek
In an interview one of the creators said the plan was to always end with their extinction, not really any other way to end a show about dinos. https://www.vulture.com/2018/08/dinosaurs-tvs-saddest-sitcom-finale.html
Was it an environmental message thing? I remember the early 90s there was a lot of environmentalism sperging going on in culture and inserted into a lot of TV shows
>when she dies and Archie has a breakdown
That was Archie Bunker's Place. Still one of the Top 10 episodes of television in my book. Carroll O'Connor's performance as Archie Bunker finally allowing himself to grieve Edith's passing is a powerhouse one.
I like the idea of version of Family Matters where Steve was a bad person but has amnesia and is constantly asking if horrible things were done by himself.
The speed kills episode of WKRP was supposed to be grim but was unintentionally funny. Same with the Who concert disaster. Only Fred Tarlick got the point that these were funny.
Brava, whedon. She at firsts keeps repeating mom as if she herself has achieved catatonia. And then "mommy", showing she has reverted to a child in a way. This makes me cry unilaterally.
Such a kino episode, even if you know what's coming it still hits hard Also it's the last time Buffy nailed a dark and depressing episode, every other one they did after this was trying too hard
That episode of HIMYM where its revealed at the end that all his friends have moved on and no longer hang out at Maclarens and the plot of the show was just his memories from years ago
There was an episode of family ties that always stuck with me because it was laid out like a stage play. I think he was at a shrink's office because his best friend died in a drunk driving accident and he was fricked up by it. God frick thus show was kino, I wonder why nobody talks about it these days.
Those episodes of 8 Simple Rules after John Ritter died where it went full drama and decided to make him die in the show, it was never quite the same after that
In Family Guy it's technically the one where Brian and Stewie get locked in the bank vault but it was ruined by the fact it was written horribly and Seth MacFarlane turned out to be a shitty dramatic actor.
Not really dark but the Spongebob episode where Squidward tries to impress Squilliam by pretending he owns the Krusty Krab ends on a pretty sad note.r4w
>"Alright, now, I want you boys to scream real loud at my ass."
That episode was so weird because it was a "Very Special Episode" but they kept the laughtrack and dumb jokes.
One of the funniest "special" episodes to air.
The Home Improvement episode where Jill finds out she has ovarian cysts is up there too.
>YOU CAN HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH YOUR CLOTHES OFF YOU LITTLE BLACK homosexualS
Jurassic Bark
kino
I had a coworker once tell me this came on TV while he was in a hotel room and he felt so uncomfortable he turned it off and went right to bed
If you find this episode "too cringe" you don't get The Office.
ive watched every episode of the office but i have never managed to get through this episode.
>"Oh my God. I can suddenly think clearly. The voices have left my head. What am I doing in a pig costume?... Uh-oh."

Ad and fg are animated by chinks and we know how they treat animals
Which dog episode? The only one I remember is the early season one with the tiny dog and Francine joins the lady bugs
Kisses, he gets mangled and some lady Frankensteins him all grotesque
oh no, not the heckin' animated doggerinos. poor cartoon doggs dindu nuffin.
Frick off, moron.
who's a good boy? good doggo. good pupper 😉
kys you fricking homosexual.
That was so weird cause it's very rare American Dad stops being farce and gets emotional, and this is still when the episode has shit like cat pirates and testicals for eyes
That episode was funny, not too dark.
why's hank got a chud grin
thinking about reboot gives me painful nostalgia
saved by the bell - Jessie's gotta study
>not the cum jar!
The Gooey Gus episodes of Ghostwriter. If the rest of the series had been that good I would have watched that shit more often.
i've seen people post this guy as nightmare fuel for years, and he's only 2 fricking feet tall? what the hell?
He was created by Tom Savini.
ALF's Special Christmas was a fricking downer with a hospital full of dying kids. The Christmas episode of Doug with Porkchop going to the pound was a downer as well. Basically I don't like melancholy holiday specials.
The ALF episode is kino
>helps dying girl enjoy her last moments on earth
>talks a guy off jumping to his death
chad ALF
used to like alf as a child, haven't talked with anyone about it since maybe the 80s
That zombie Simpsons episode Bart misses a ball at a baseball game then the entire town starts shunning him until he tries to kill himself
mass extinction sure is good for a hyuck
Holy shit, I never really watched much of this show while I was growing up but I would sometimes catch the odd episode here and there, is this really how it fricking ends? If so that’s so hilariously dark kek
Even funnier it was the father's stupid bulder at work that got everyone killed
earl SNEED sinclair
90% of people are gonna think your shitposting
I used to vandalize the dinosaurs wikipedia article to say "formerly Earl Chuck Sinclair"
can you imagine two autists changing the middle name of a dinosaur back and forth on a silly website?
Where do you think we are right now?
its an autism free zone last I checked
You checked wrong and thought wronger extremely hard homosexual
Yes because I was the one who did it.
It was funny because I did it for fun and the jannie on Wikipedia did it as SERIOUS BUSINESS
This obviously its just so dark and bleak wtf where they thinking ?
They were doing it to spite disney for cancelling the show.
Technically there's a few more episodes after this that were made for syndication

Released in 1994 when global cooling was still favored as opposed to global warming as the weapon of the apocalypse.
It's a shame we didn't listen, this was almost 28 years ago so Earth must be completely destroyed by now.
scrubs
Being light hearted and goofy one moment then tragic and down to earth the next was kind of Scrubs' whole thing though
where do you think we are?
>where do you think we are?
Great actor shame he wasn't used more
that was fricked up
Arnold was huge fricking wiener tease.
Dudley's got it right. Drugs, a new bike, porn on VHS and a blow job from an old guy.
always disliked this episode, they made crazy joe davola too real
You a little bit slow or something?
No. You?
Yes.
For some reason I don’t believe you considering you posted Smiling Friends completely off-topic
Shit anon you bring back memories i forgot i had from childhood
Top 5 cringiest moments in the office for sure
>haha, funny cat liek lasagne
All in the family where Edith almost gets raped or when she dies and Archie has a breakdown
>when she dies and Archie has a breakdown

The standalone episodes of Mythic Quest were pretty uncharacteristically sad.
They were but she was so stupidly hot that I had a dream I sexed her the night Inwatched it. Thst sort of thing is rare for me.
how did the door know?
who opened her door before she got there?
Good point
The vandals. Her and Steve walk up as they are doing it.
Did i do that?
I like the idea of version of Family Matters where Steve was a bad person but has amnesia and is constantly asking if horrible things were done by himself.
Urkel had trouble memorizing dialogue so they wrote his lines on the set
I remember watching this as a kid in Spain, and being like: So what? What's going on? Why the strong reactions?
>did i do that?

The weird communism episode of girl meets world. Based, but weird

HEY MR. SCOTT
I remember a very special episode of Doug
https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/739452
Not an episode but an entire season
>when the father takes Orel out on the hunting trip and has to resist raping his anus
too dark
Don't lie
It was the nurse that was raped by her closest friend and it was a different ep
But do you appreciate it all as a little baby? No all you do is cry cry cry cry cry cry cry cry
I have no idea why Superjail, wacky violent cartoon fun, decided to have a super sad episode
I liked that one and still mispronounce cancer on purpose from time to time.
That episode of HIMYM where its revealed at the end that all his friends have moved on and no longer hang out at Maclarens and the plot of the show was just his memories from years ago
No MASH finale? Actually a lot of MASH eps
Kek I haven't even seen a single episode of this show but I know exactly what this is. Brutal
Cuter than Raven.
There was an episode of family ties that always stuck with me because it was laid out like a stage play. I think he was at a shrink's office because his best friend died in a drunk driving accident and he was fricked up by it. God frick thus show was kino, I wonder why nobody talks about it these days.
I vividly recall an episode where a relative of the family tries to molest one of the daughters.
Those episodes of 8 Simple Rules after John Ritter died where it went full drama and decided to make him die in the show, it was never quite the same after that
There's also that two-parter episode where Kramer gets mistaken for a serial killer in LA. That was really weird.
I don't care for Boy Meets World but this episode is so undoubtedly and brazenly kino I know of it just to watch it occasionally

too soon
That's not a dark episode, just a sad moment.
If you want to talk about Futurama and an unexpectedly dark episode, then you're looking at the bee one
In Family Guy it's technically the one where Brian and Stewie get locked in the bank vault but it was ruined by the fact it was written horribly and Seth MacFarlane turned out to be a shitty dramatic actor.
the even stevens halloween special
The one where Bud goes crazy in the basement on Married with children.
Doesn't Edith get raped on some All in the Family episode?
Not really dark but the Spongebob episode where Squidward tries to impress Squilliam by pretending he owns the Krusty Krab ends on a pretty sad note.r4w
Every episode of hey Arnold.
