Top 10 times Anime tackled serious issues
"How come he don't want me, man?!" Proof that Will Smith is incredibly talented, and ad libbed that line. Apparently, Phil's comforting hug was also improvised.
Everyone on set was in actual tears that the director didn't know when to call cut.
Avery had a teaching moment about that scene b4 It happened & told Will that how u pull the talent he had out or something along those lines....
💯🎯💯🎯💯🎯💯
James Avery remarked into Will's ear "now that's acting" when he nailed it in the scene. He was right.
You can hear Hilary (Karyn Parsons) crying in the background of that scene.
Uncle Phil hugging him is the closer it needed, it's sad to think how common that is, parents selfishly abandoning kids.
“How come he don’t want me man?”
That’s something no one should EVER have to ask about their dad (or mom)
and yet, so many often do...
The Gaming Paladin Sadly
always cry for that fresh prince scene
still gets me to this day
Yeah it hits you in the feels certainly did to me as someone who's dad wasn't present since birth.
That was a heartbreaking scene💔
same 🥺🤧
@Daniel Nathan Roberts always man always
Boy Meets World had a lot of important ones. Like Topanga’s parents divorce and the one where the girls dad beats her
It's my favourite tv show
And Shawn getting left by his parents and talking about s3x
Shawn drinking and shawn losing his parents
And they have a whole episode on on Top 10 serious moments on Boy Meets World...
@@_xxicantthinkofanamexx_6864
And when things finally got better with his dad, his dad died from a heart attack.
That Will Smith moment is one that always sticks. One that always stands out and can be related to by many. They did tackle some other hard issues like guns, drugs and the such but that one... that one always hits harder than any other.
It still makes me tear up to this day... and I'm 36 now. Lol
@@thablackguy84 heh I'm 38 and I have to try to avoid it because each time I watch it a tear forms
@@Slim451 I don't avoid my feelings. Lol I'll cry and be happy about it. It's a liberating thing. Sometimes you need a good cry. Lol Normalize feeling feelings.
Racism, police interactions, the L.A. riots, all long before "get woke, go broke" became a phrase for those wanting to keep their heads in the sand.
@@thablackguy84 same!!! I lived it and I'm 35😓😭
The 90's did serious issues 1000 better than any show in the 2010's
absolutely
Then any show? That's a stretch bud. 13 reasons why tackled serious issue every episode. Modern Family incorporated things that a lot of people still don't agree with now. All-American has done it as well along with other shows.
Euphoria? Degrassi the Next Generation? Queen Sugar? Sorry but tackling issues properly has definitely evolved. Now if we want to discuss sitcoms well… 🤷🏽♀️ I’m not the biggest sitcom watcher these days so you’re on to something there.
@@PrettyNerdTingz Definitely mean sitcoms.
I think that’s the reason why laugh track sitcoms don’t work anymore. They’re more comedy and don’t try to teach life lessons or social issues.
Stranger on the Net still terrifies me. When I was a kid I didn’t understand the episode until my mother explained it to me about online predators and what they do.
That's why I always said I was a 19 year old female from California even though I was much younger and from Ohio. I wanted to make sure no one could find me.
Yes that was a great episode. Definitely had an impact on me as a kid...
Interestingly, Tahj Mowry's sisters had an episode of their sitcom (Sister, Sister) about Internet safety. I think it's from the 4th season; basically, Tia starts chatting with a guy on the Internet who claims he's a famous fashion photographer, and...well, you can guess the rest.
Family matters also dealt with guns in school too when Laura's friend got shot over a pair of jacket, and gang violence after a gang robs Rachel's restaurant. But thank you for this list, i cry the hardest whenever i see will smith's monologue.
Honestly Family Matters deserves it's own list seeing as the show in nearly every episode dealt with serious issues
@@richardperaza5083 its still relevant today, if they did a reboot with Laura and Steve married with kids. so many of the topics could still be tackled ranging from racism to bullying to peer pressure
@@JanetMarieRose73 true the issue is the black culture idolizes gang members and other really bad stereotypes about the black community I wish we could break those boundaries
If that Fresh Prince scene doesn't make you tear up, you better check your pulse
specially if you lived that....
I'm an empath so I feel it HARD...I start crying early in Will's speech
@@Tarthalas You're right. I definitely lived it and that moment will always stick with me. I'm almost thirty and my father hasn't seen me since I was nine.
I have a wonderful father, for all my years. This scene still gets me because I feel for those who don't.
☝️🤷♂️😁💯
Shows should never be afraid to talk about serious issues because these are very real subjects that really cant be ignored. If people dont like it they dont want to face a issue that can happen to anybody
I applaud Carl for confronting the racist cops for Eddie
Big Guy doesn't stand for any of that, Carl Winslow wasnt gonna pretend that nothing happened.
Good Cop, Bad Cop is one of the best episodes from any 90’s Sitcom. The whole episode was something people could relate to and learn from.
Carl standing up for his son was strong and powerful
I can never turn away from that clip from Fresh Prince. Still relevant and heartbreaking, even today.
dat one ,de one where Will had to stop Carlton from hurting someone n himself wit a gun,Carlton facing reverse racism,Uncle Phils heart attack were de ones dat got me
Good choices of shows that tackled serious issues. I think there should be another list though, fresh prince and boy meets world both tackled way more serious issues over their runs.
i think there should be more than 10 since there are so many issues that aren't covered
They did one on Fresh Prince I think they also did one on Boy Meets World
A Different World
A different world should have honestly be included. I feel like they tackled wha more serious issues than all of the shows on the list. They didn’t sugarcoat it.
Yea off the top of my drinking
Don't f with uncle Phil.
🗣🔊
"Cut the crap , alright, cut it! Cause I've been there. And I didn't run out on my family, I was there everyday. Cause that's what a man does."
One of the greatest TV dads ever!
Or Carl Winslow both of them were probably the greatest 90s dads
@@richardperaza5083 yes Carl Winslow is so underrated. I love him and uncle Phil.
Family Matters also had a solid episode about gun violence
Nothing will ever top that Fresh Prince moment.
I also like "Just Say Yo", when Will had those speed pills and Carlton took 'em.
Boy meets world, could fill this whole list.
I haven't watched it since I was a kid. Does it still hold up?
I love this comment so much
Boy meets world is where it’s at
@@aileedubaron it absolutely does hold up.
@@andrewkearley6900 nice thanks. Probably going to rewatch it soon then. I researched Saved By The Bell this past year and 😬 yikes lol
Family Matters also dealt with gun violence at school when a girl gang member shot one of Laura’s friends on her arm over for her shoes.
They mentioned it in another countdown so that’s why the chose another episode
That episode was more to show people about violence in the inner city
The episode when Will had to take the gun from Carlton hits different too
I always LOVED when sitcoms did these serious episodes. Not everything has to be shits and giggles for entertainment. Sadly, we as a young society are still dealin with a good portion of these issues 20-30 years later smh.
A Different World FOR SURE shouldve been on this list tho. The rape episode, the racism episode,the abuse episode, the LA riots episode, the gun violence episode with Kriss Kross, etc. Hilarious show that not only was never afraid of tackling serious issues within the black community but also inspired a huge portion of black teens to go to college in the 90s.
I wish they could’ve brought up the “Josh is Done” episode from Drake and Josh. It’s a perfect example of a sitcom with a serious episode with an important message for its viewers.
This isn't a serious moment, but I'll never forget after the end of an episode of Family Matters when James Avery came onto the Family Matters set and Reginald VelJohnson fell out laughing and ran into his arms and hugged him. That's a crossover if I've ever seen one. Two of the best sitcom dads of all time. RIP James "Uncle Phil" Avery.
That same episode I believe is when Ritchie’s friend says Carl looks like the father from Fresh Prince. Than the other night, I was watching the episode of the Fresh Prince where Will and everyone goes back to help rebuild the old neighborhood. When will goes to clean up an old apartment, Uncle Phil and Aunt Viv’s old landlord pulled out a bat on Will. When Phil showed up, the landlord told him “Aren’t you that guy from Family Matters”. That was a good little crossover tidbit.
Will’s father Lou had no business being a dad some boys need to appreciate that they have a father or a male figure in their life
I remember the first time I saw that Family Matters episode where THAT word was spray painted on Laura's locker like it was yesterday - I'm pushing 40. I'd never heard THAT word before and had to ask my folks what it meant. They uncomfortably explained and I remember getting so angry that this type of injustice and prejudice existed (exists) in the world. Very eye opening moment, for sure
I just turned 40 last month so I know exactly what you mean
at least your parents didnt shelter you and/or lie to you and actually told you the truth, however uncomfortable for them it may have been. unfortunately not everyone has that chance.
When Alan defends Shawn against the cult leader like he was his own son..
That is one of my favorite moments of the entire show, among many.
I believe the dialog you're looking for is this "A judgment I made a long time ago is that Shawn Hunter is the best friend that my kid ever had, and I will kill to protect Shawn Hunter from people like you."
In Girl Meets World we find out that Alan and Amy at one point wanted to adopt Shawn as their own child.
Shawn was the one who didn’t want that to happen.
There was some definite cringe in the 90s, and some jokes and plotlines in 90s sitcoms that would not fly today, but people really forget that they also tackled things like this too. 90s television paved the way for inclusivity and sensitive subject matter in media and though we obviously have a lot more work to do, we wouldn't be where we are today without these shows taking a chance and releasing episodes like these.
Some of these things were good (fatherlessness and it's results, drug use being bad).
Other things, not so good.
Will Smith could act circles around everyone listed here. That was a phenomenal scene.
I’d rather know the truth regardless of the cost to my comfort.
Also, cannabis requires no apologies. The only dangerous part about cannabis use is the laws that turn a blameless action into a crime. End the War on Drugs.
While I agree, but in the 90s and still some states Pot is a drug charge over an amount is distribution so it can/did ruin lives. So folks still need to be aware of the cost of having until all 50 states catch up.
Marijuana isn't illegal where I live
even i don't understand . man wrecking destruction over other man is not serious , but self destruction is a crime
canabis is a drug which can be used for medicine, but guess what , the world doesn't accept spit facts like that so easily
Ikr
For the love of God be there for your kids. I don't care if you are struggling with your own problems. Show up for your children!
I work with at risk youth and more often than not a parent isn't present in their life. Kids need guidance.
The will Smith scene will always break my heart and stick with me.
Wow, these are real issues that are happening in today's world, it's a good thing these sitcoms address these issues
Mr Turner deserved to have a physical appearance in later seasons of Boy Meets World
Yeah he’s in Girl Meets World but still
He sure did. One of the best characters in the show.
As a person who grew up with a dad that just wasn't there and when they were would rub my face in how I was not as good as his other kids. Who has to see how my other half siblings have had a better life and I was always the one who had to reach out even now.. I feel Will Smith in that performance. Why do the kids have to be the first to respond or acknowledge shit? Even as a 33 year old it still hurts, but I refuse to call that man first cause I didn't leave he left us!
No kid should have to deal with a parent dipping and excusing like they shouldn't have to deal with abuse. It's not the child's fault your an asshole.
I'm sorry to hear that
Sadly I know that feeling too 😥
@@vixen4327 I'm sorry to hear that for you also
Aww the 90's, when they put life lessons in kids shows. We need this now more than ever.
That Fresh Prince scene never fails to make me tear up
WHY DOESN'T HE WANT ME?
Gives me chills everytime
I have found it impossible to watch the Will Smith moment without breaking down.
Boy Meets World and Full House really hit me home ❤️❤️❤️
This is back when the "special episode" meant something.
Now let’s see one for animated shows.
You mean like Static Shock?
@@williamcrowe2576 remember the Gun episode
@@nicholassims9837 Remember Richie's Dad episode
@@zeze9291 I think I saw it once
Captain Planet (the drug addiction episode)
Irony of the home improvement episode. Tim Allen was arrested in Detroit for cocaine trafficking
I also really like the episode of Full House where they deal with death. I remember the original airing of the episode like it was yesterday. There was a disclaimer before the episode that said kids should not watch this episode alone but with their parents. My parents had me watch it with them since I had no first hand experience with death at that point in my life. The episode surrounds Uncle Jesse’s grandfather Papouli coming from Greece for a visit. He starts bonding with the Tanner girls, especially Michelle and she asks him if he would be her guest for special grownups day at school and he agrees. Then the next day Michelle comes home from school and sees everyone crying and is confused. Danny tells her Papouli died in his sleep the night before. Michelle doesn’t take the news well at all. However, Stephanie instructs Michelle not to feel sad or cry around Uncle Jesse because he’s in charge of the funeral plans and if they cry he will cry too and not be able to plan the funeral. Michelle is unable to keep her promise to Stephanie about not crying. A day or two later Michelle decides to skip school and hide in a new boat Danny recently bought. Uncle Jesse finds her there and asks why she isn’t in school. Michelle tells him that day is the day Papouli was supposed to teach her class a Greek dance for special grownup day. She and Uncle Jesse have a long talk about Papouli and Michelle reveals how Stephanie said they should be brave and not cry in front on Uncle Jesse or he will cry too. Uncle Jesse says that was the wrong thing for Stephanie to do and will talk to her about it at another time. Then Michelle asks if it’s ok to cry and she and Uncle Jesse have a good long cry. Lastly, Uncle Jesse brings Michelle to school and helps her teach her class the dance Papouli was supposed to do. I totally remember breaking down in tears when I originally saw this episode as I was a kid at the time. It was hard for me to watch. The episode re-aired a few months later and I couldn’t bring myself to watch it a second time. I didn’t see this episode a second time until I was an adult and the show aired on Nick-At-Nite.
I remember watching that episode as a kid (Full House was the only Nick at Nite show I liked at the time)
Show: A Different World
Episode: cats in the cradle
Issue: racism
Great example
That's the one with Dean Cain, right?
Real talk, A Different World could fill a list like this on its own. There were so many episodes that discussed serious issues like date rape, AIDS, abusive relationships, sexual harassment in the workplace, colorism, hell, the sixth season starts in the midst of the LA Riots.
That fresh prince scene made everyone cry and made sure we had a star in William Smith
Willard Smith *
@@srenin7975 or slick willie
Vilhelm Schmidt…
2 other issues that were in 90s sitcoms and in my opinion should be mentioned was the issues of " rumors and how they can wreak a reputation " like the episode of " family matters " when Laura went out on a date with Ted and he let this male friends assume that he slept with her. Thank goodness for Steve and Eddie getting Ted to come clean about the fact nothing happened between him and Laura in front of the entire school.
And the 2nd issue being the " Trying to look more developed physically issues" like the episodes of several shows that show teens who want to look " developed " like a girl wanting to wear makeup / revealing clothes or stuffing a bra . Oh and 1 more issue that definitely needs to be addressed more often especially now a days is the being bullying both physically and emotionally in schools.
So I don't think I've seen all these shows or even all these episodes but I remember that Will Smith one and it hit me because as a guy whose dad did not come back since birth it does hit hard. He's not dead but he was a part of salvation army but he never really came to visit me or anything
"I'm so excited! I'm so excited..."
Ahh, the 90s. When values still were actually good values.
So glad that I grew up as a teenager in the 90s watching most of these episodes. That episode on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air with his dad hit way too close to home for me.
A different world should be in this list
Too Black for this list
Too Black for this list
It could fill a list of its own.
when Uncle Jesse asks" i look at u girls n nikki n Alex how could anyone hurt their child" makes me cry
boy meets world and full house talked about so many different real world problems and that’s why I love them
how can you not mention the 90's sitcom roc?
Roc was overly preachy to me and wasn't very fun.
I used to love that show!!!
Exactly the episode Terrace Get Your Gun man that messed me up for several years 🥺
@@RajaReign78: The actor that played Terrance is the same actor who played Aaron in “Moesha”. That “Roc” episode made me cry so hard, just like the “Hangin' with Mr. Cooper” gun violence episode.
There's an episode of Sister Sister that is similar to Smart Guy's about chat rooms. I was around their age and was active in various chat circles online and it scared the hell out of me.
The issues of " on the internet safety " for me were addressed in " sister sister " in the episode: "Model Tia" .
The issue of " gun safety " was in an episode of " Family matters " titled " the gun" And episodes of " the Cosby show " delt with the birth control safety issue in a two parter episode with cousin Pam.
5:07 I never knew Danielle Fishel (Topanga) came out on a episode of Full House
Essentially all of these are pulled from “On a very special episode” series😂
There was a gun violence episode of “Hangin' with Mr. Cooper” that left me in tears. “Increase the Peace” was such a powerful episode. Also, “A Different World” had quite a few, but “The Cat's in the Cradle” episode is one of the best shows I've seen when it comes to confronting racism. The show itself also tackled sexual harassment, sexual assault, and gang violence...but between TCinC and the “Pride and Prejudice” episode, the show really did hit when it came to race issues in the United States (for the era).
You Forgot The Gun Episode from Family Matters, it was one of the most serious episodes of the show ever plus it was accompanied by a PSA in the end of the Episodes
The thing that always gets me with these lists:
"How this is only Number 2!? What could possibly-- _Oh."_
Keep it up on your work and this channel
Thanks for including the Smart Guy episode. That show was possibly the most underrated sitcom of the decade
For real, Floyd was one of the best fathers in sitcom history. Sadly the sitcom was too underrated.
@@nathansaintus9927 I couldn’t agree with you more, dude. Floyd Henderson’s relationship with T.J. even reminds me of my relationship with my father.
Will Smith made me cry all the time.
I relate so much to the fresh Prince scene you show about will's dad and I cry each time I see it
There is a couple of scene that really hits me the hardest. That I cry at the most and my heart breaks every time
90’s sitcoms that felt with serious issues
When Stephanie comes to Jessie about Charles’s dad beats him -Full House my heart breaks every time
Will Smith’s scene with Uncle Phill about not having his father - Fresh prince of Bel Air I cry every time watching this scene
Shawn’s emotional outburst to his father as Chet has anther heart attack and passes away- Boy Meets World just so hard to watch especially with Shawn because of how he feels on the inside
smart guy was an elite show
Absolutely.
Even though Will Smith's father didn't actually leave him, he conveyed the hurt and confusion of having a parent abandon you. What I'm trying to say is. I relate to his character on a personal level. A+ acting
So it’s from the 80s, but someone’s gotta mention “that” Different Strokes episode. You know the one. Where that old dude takes a liking to Arnold (Gary Coleman) and Dudley.
Nah. Liberal Mojo thinks racism is much more of a major issue than pedophilia.
@@nicholasbourcier And both of those issues *aren't* relevant? Because black kids probably have to worry about both.
@@fromthehaven94 racism isn't that prevalent in America no matter how much your media and Democrat overlords want to you believe.
@@nicholasbourcier If it isn't, then the reactions over issues of police brutality wouldn't be so... different.
@@fromthehaven94 police brutality isn't a thing for everyone other than the victimized POC and white Marxists.
A Different World. The episode where dude was trying to force himself on Freddy 🤬🤬
I would have chosen the Home Improvement episode when Randy thinks he might have cancer over "What a Drag"
IN my opinion, the "don't ask don't tell" I took it as: "If I didn't ask your sexuality, then there is no reason to tell me." I am all for LGBTQ+ people, but with some people I know, them being gay is all we talk about because they won't let me talk about anything else. and that was basically the first thing they told me when we met. which is silly. IDC if you're straight, bi, gay etc etc, I only care if you're a good person.
"DADT" was the colloquial name of the US military's policy on homosexuality at the time. It specifically means that if you suspect a fellow service member is gay, don't ask them to either confirm or deny, and if you are gay, stay in the effin' closet, behind your uniforms. It's a phrase about oppression, not about silly problems like friends not varying their conversation topics adequately.
that one episode of Hanging with Mr. Cooper where a young girl is killed due to gang violence and that episode of Family Matters where Laura wanted to buy a gun are two that made me sad
I was just thinking of that Hangin With Mr Cooper episode too...the girl in question was played by former Yellow Ranger Karan Ashley
I've never seen that episode before
It seemed like the 90s knew a lot of these issues will still happen right now. I still watch these shows and it shakes me to the bone. That episode of Family Matters when Eddie gets pulled over by the cops is still very much heartbreaking
Darius McCrary (Eddie) said that actually happened to him once.
I'm actually glad they've done episodes like about this stuff...!! Were very teachable.
Beverly Hills 90210 had a lot of episodes (especially in the earlier seasons) that addressed sensitive topics. Still have memories of that Season 2 episode, where Andrea petitions the school board, to distribute condoms at school. Also, Donna standing up to her mother, with that speech she made at the PTA meeting.
On the Smart Guy clip which starts at 3:11. The person who plays a stranger was Jim Fife, who was the host of the Consumer Reports "Buy Me That" series on HBO in the early 1990's.
Tim Allen’s line of getting him on the pod and off the pot has me DEAD!
Gosh, I've never seen that Fresh Prince scene but in just the few moments it was on this video, it had me in tears. That's powerful
A very special episode of Watch Mojo
If you don't know what TGIF is, you missed some good times with your family watching TV together
Thank you for sharing the Full House episodes. True this show did take slander for including cheesy music during tender moments or serious awkward moments. I feel that was to ease the tension and at times it did work.
Can you please do one of these for both the 1980s and the 2000s? I love seeing these kinds of lists.
That Fresh Prince scene always gets me.
The scene from Fresh Prince still makes me cry.
I feel like I've seen a list like this before maybe it was broader where it said sitcoms in general didn't say specifically 90s
The Fresh Prince Scene still gets me all these years later
There are 3 Boy Meets World moments that reduce me to tears. When Corey hugs Shawn in that episode is one of them. “No Shawn! This is a hug!” 😭 Without spoilers the other 2 are Eric and Tommy and Shawn’s dad. “Class dismissed” gets me every time too but for happy reasons.
Where the heck is “saved by the bell” Jesse on pills. Remember “I am so excited”. You guys messed up. That should’ve been No.1
I know I'm shocked!
I was looking for that moment
I remember that episode..!! That episode was kinda emotional too.
Honestly they should've made the list longer
I'm quite surprised that didn't make the list as well. At the very least, that should have been honorable mention.
I feel like the order & entries could be adjusted some, but I figure you were also trying to do only one entry per show. I just wanna say I really appreciate you putting Black sitcoms at the top & giving the top 2 entries to episodes which addressed racism. As a young Black man (I turned 26 last week) I grew up seeing how far we've come since the civil rights movement but also how much farther we need to go, such as with George Floyd. It's also one detail I really appreciated about the 90s, how we had great Black sitcoms to help humanize us. We have that now with black-ish (I hope the trend continues)
That Damn scene with. Will still made me tear. up alittle. Loved this1
7:00 it's ironic that Tim Allen did an episode about Brad using pot when in real life Tim Allen did time for selling pot.
Bud Lightyear
Kids today esp around 6-12 swear they know everything when they get online. Don't know what they're doing, who playing with them online and or talking to but swear they got it.
Honestly I'm going to say this Good Cop, Bad Cop had 2 great messages
1. Racism with authority figures
2. Sometimes your mentor isn't the best person
Fresh Prince sure had realistic moments that apply to real life. For a sitcom that tackled some sensitive topics, it’s proof the show had heart.
We all need an Uncle Phil in our lives.
That fresh prince one. Always gets me. When my parents first split. It rocked me just like when Will. Was emotional like that. I was broken like that too.
I'm sorry
@@Xayjohns thank you. :)
As a child with both my parents happily married the fresh prince scene always hits me hard. I feel so bad for anyone who has to ask the question how come he or she doesn't want me.
Keep it up on this video
The previews has all my fave you guys better have them
The Fresh Prince episode was (and still is) so impactful. Especially to my life. I met my dad right before COVID hit, and he was going to fly out to see me, but it stopped travel. I'm definitely bringing up that episode when I have that "talk" with him. I lAter realized the actor that played his dad (Ben Vereen) is related to my husband. Go figure!😅
Will reacting to his dad leaving & Carl confronting the racist cop are two of the best performances in a sitcom ever
I agree. And I love how Reginald VelJohnson went from playing one cop in Die Hard, straight to playing Carl Winslow for 9 years on Family Matters.
I remember in the episode of cult fiction after Sean speech I think the leader said there’s always more that creeped me out when I was kid. I miss these kind of shows ❤️
