"5 Inexplicably Horrifying Episodes of Classic Comedies"

[kane_magus]

What the hell, Cracked? o_O But then, of course, Cracked didn't create these episodes (none of which I've seen myself, aside from the Youtube clips embedded in the article), they just wrote an article about them. The Punky Brewster one didn't seem all that bad to me, given that it was all fictional even within the context of the show (though Cracked makes a good point about it being potentially easy to miss that that's the case) and it was all crazy over-the-top supernatural stuff, but from #4 on they were indeed rather horrible, given their relative basis in reality.

But you know what, to me, was the absolute worst part about those? The frickin' laugh tracks... or, even worse, the actual live studio audiences, if that's what they were.
