  • Excellent work!!

    

  • This parody is so spot-on and hilarious. Bravo!

    Still, I have to say I miss TV shows like this. Sure they were corny, but they put you in a good mood. I mean, if I want harsh reality I have actual harsh reality.

  • Reminds be of Family Matters, the beat.

  • @machstarfox - They aren't showing the character names, they're showing the actor names.

  • Every Episode of Full House.....

  • how do the family members have different last name.

  • ONEEE MOORRREEE CHEEEZZZYY CHORD!

  • This needs to be a real show.

  • wuz just watching family matters, damn is this accurate.

  • this would make more sense if they were black xD TO ME ANYYWAY not trying to be offensive or whatever lol

  • Hey, I think I know Gruff Naibor ;)

  • at 1:10, thats the frog outfit from the sexy costume store skit :)

  • dont get the dads name

  • @chloeraider10 - the name is Patrick Riaarch. Which if you say it fast together it becomes Patriarch which means in Latin father, or head of family.

  • How did they manage to capture every 80's and 90's sitcom theme in one song.

  • Familial Happenings is a Miller-Boyett production(?), and is distributed by Warner Brothers Domestic Television Distribution.

  • @GreatMewtwo and is filmed before a live studio audience lol

  • Why the hell is it SO God dammed catchy

  • another area view of the land

    the show is created by THIS man. lol that had me rollin

  • if your gonna make a Family Matters parody, you can't leave out urkel!

  • That was amazing. LMAO.

  • @picklejar222 see I don't get that one...I understand the others though

  • Yo dawg, I heard you like sitcoms so I made a sitcom about sitcoms so you can watch sitcoms while you watch sitcoms.

  • @darthharbison We need to go deeper!

  • rofl patrick riarch

  • Reminds me of Family Matters and Full House.

  • The show was created by THIS man!

  • :49 seconds! ROLLERBLADING MAN!!!

  • Yep, that's every Miller-Boyette sitcom ever made.

  • ride a bike and wear a...silly suit!

  • They definitely nailed just about every Miller-Boyett opening from the 1990s right there. Full House, Family Matters, Step By Step, you name it. Only thing they missed was putting the "as (whoever)" on the last character, e.g. "and Telma Hopkins as Rachel".

  • @schuminweb haha Yeah.

    - The other thing missing is a Perfect Strangers reference. On the other hand that wasn't a family, so I guess it doesn't necessarily count.

  • @Billinois78 Yeah, Perfect Strangers kind of falls into a different category because it was an adult-oriented show rather than one centered around a family, and its opening only had two turn-and-smile shots in it. Most of that show's opening was clips of Larry and Balki traveling to Chicago (in the early opening), and crazy antics in Chicago (in the later opening). Nothing against the show (I always enjoyed it), but it's just kind of apart from the others.

  • whoa... everyone's white

  • The song is sort of cute haha.

  • i first thought the dad was dr drew

  • This totally made my day! The only thing missing was the annoying neighbor/friend part!

  • @cubedtothex Actually, I take it back, just read the "names" they didn't miss a mark!

  • lol i love theme songs.. this is pretty funny

  • Cute, I thought it was like Full House too.. lol

    Thanks for sharing,

    Jessie

  • Oh my god. I love this.

  • I think I've seen this show before somewhere...

  • One more cheesy chord!!! Lolz...

  • Even the font is almost identical. Well done.

  • Very Miller-Boyett... Lol.

  • LMAO!!! Perfect, perfect, PERFECT!!!

  • LOLSAUCE at their names

  • An executive at Warner Brothers is probably watching this video right now and saying to himself, "Get Thomas and Robert on the phone, we've got a new show for them"!

  • what is a riarch?

  • @holykarmor "Patrick Riarch" = patriarch: The father runs the household.

  • Interesting way of describing the characters personalities VIA their names.

  • hahahah......TGIF!!!

  • "This guy must be a lawyer" - Chorus

    'Associations of Trial Lawyers of America' probably gave that away...

  • This is spot-on....the only thing that's missing is the introduction for the dog at the end...."And Sparky as Himself"

  • I like the sublimity of the names.

  • wow this is like one of those literal videos to songs

  • Lol at 1:23 the little girl turns around, looks at her parents so they tell her what to do and then smiles :D

  • what year is this?

  • when was this and sounds alot like family matters and full house theme songs lol sounds funny

  • ashley marketable x-D

  • lol at their names.

  • Lol, if this would become actually a real show, it would be so much better than any today's shows. XD

  • The 196 dislikes are from former Miller-Boyett employees.

  • Oh man, that's so true. Full House, Family Matters and even Step by Step were extremely cheesy occasionally.

  • oh i get it this is made up LOL i was lke TURN AND SMILE???

  • Ashley Marketable :D

  • The guys who worked at Miller-Boyett must be weeping that every aspect of their 1990s sitcom formula was lampooned in the span of 1:41 seconds.

  • i'm not familiar with this sitcom 

  • @q1111w this isnt real lol check out the last names of the "cast"

  • 195 people don't like to turn and smile...

  • this is the same place as the obama barbeque

  • That's a riot. All those lame family sitcoms in the 80s and 90s were like this.

  • @funkeekatt A lot of those are better then the reality shows they have now.

  • @aztekarrow I'd rather watch Hell's Kitchen than Full House any day.

  • LOOK HERE NOT AT THAT OTHER PLACE!!!!

  • Familial Happening's "Turn and Smile" theme song , is a parody of mostly 80's and 90's sitcom TV shows such as Family Matters and Full House, but has a mixture of other shows as well.:) Good Times had the oldest son JJ who had the catchphrase, The Cosby Show had Theo as the only male sibling, The Parent Hood and The Cosby Show, tropical 5th season opening are the only shows I remember that had all of the cast members look at the camera at the end, like at 01:24. :D

  • pretty damn accurate. Lol

  • probably the best of ch :D

  • this really reminds me of 7th heaven

  • Katie Thomboi! hahhaah!  awesome

  • I had to laugh at "Ashley Marketable"

  • XD Family Matters parody

  • 1:25 the little girl gets distracted.

  • Wow!! This should be made into a real series!!

  • The guy from the Onion is there! 0:18, in the brown shirt, holding a plate.

  • Danny Cachfrase (catchphrase)! lol Katie Thomboi (tom boy!), Ashley Marketable, Cutethrine bookish, valerie stayatome, gruff naibor. wooow. lol

  • Ashley Marketable... XD

  • @TheGreatAwakening5 Exact same thing happened to me.

  • LOL "Familial Happenings" "Valerie Stayathome" "Gruff Naibor"??? God this is funny.

  • Can't believe I missed this from almost a year ago.

    The names were funny too. "Gruff Naibor"

  • The guy from the Onion! Awesome.

  • The one playing the reporter in "Pulsating Red Dot", right?

  • lol ive always hated how marketable the olsen twins are XD

  • the family matters and full house theme is burned in my head.

  • OMG i love this one... XD

  • This is why I like the Scrubs theme

  • You really have to watch this several times to get the full humorous effects.. once doesn't do it justice

  • Summed em all up! nice one

  • shows created by this man

  • genius!

  • this is really true about sitcom openings

  • the one thing they are missing is the older sisters' best friend...they coulda added that

  • Ashley Marketable LOL

  • Danny Cachfrase lol ;>

    and that frog costume, already seen in ch vids :) nice one

  • Spot on!!!!

  • haha patrick oriarch = patriarch haha this is awesome

  • oow this realy is one of the best songs of college humor..

    love it :P

  • its never on.

  • Which was the theme song that they all sit on the couch? Was it growing pains?

  • does it really matter? it's all the same...

  • nah, they all stand outside for growing pains,

    but i feel like i should know what you're talking about. haha

  • haha i love the names. especially ashley marketable. LOL

  • anyone notice that gruff naibor is Mcain?

  • He got the frog costume from the girls costume warehouse

  • Wow they got the Full House and Family Matter's openings down perfectly.

  • XD I love how at 1:25, the blondie girl doesn't even look at the camera and smile until the end...

  • it's funny, because I made a video of my kids, and no lie, the last clip, every kid runs away except for one(a la Growing Pains.)

  • One more cheesy choo-oord!

  • i was trippin out when i seen da funny names Valerie stayatome..danny cachfrase..gruff naibor...katie thomboi...ashley marketable.....cutethrine bookish...lmfao at the song great funny video

  • I loved the clever family member names ("Patrick Riarch", "Danny Cachfrase", etc.)

  • I sooo thought of this years ago!!! I'm so pissed! I Guess I need to work for College Humor

  • haha, generic 80s sitcoms.....damn i hate 80's television, funny vid

  • Wow! The writers at CH came up with something that closely models the parody of Miller/Boyett shows I've been looking to make!

    They should produce an updated version of this with a new cast member slipped in toward the end. A new lyric can be inserted along the lines of "The nerdy next-door neighbor who is sweeping the nation" or "The new famous cast member we hired to save the show from cancellation".

  • this is bugging me, was there a joke in patrick riarch?? it's like 3am, and i can't figure this one out lol..

  • Patriarch.

  • ahhhh... thanks so much. i over think things. i do that a lot.

  • haha , u guys are right!

  • I'm so glad people don't act like that in real life..

  • @DuErGrim1990

    my life would be great 10 fold if it was.

  • @DuErGrim1990 Im glad people don't have names like that in real life. But they are kinda funny

  • @DuErGrim1990 I do, in my life large events happen within a collective timespan of 20minutes, and in the last 5 minutes my whole family sit together and discuss what happened and laugh.

  • @DuErGrim1990 Why not i mean it's not like anyone would want to wake up in the morning and have a perfect family and theme without ad wars i my oppinion i think it would be awesome to have a great family,theme, ad no wars sounds pretty cool to me.

  • This guy must be a lawyer! OMFG xDDD

  • Did 1:25 make anyone else EXTREMELY uncomfortable?

  • brilliant!

  • Ashley Marketable.. Hahahahaha.

  • this makes me think of three's company reruns!

  • it does.

  • Wow that mother does NOT look like she went through four kids.

  • I hate sitcoms with people turning and look at the camera during the theme or intro. No one really wants to see their faces. I personally get creeped out if they look at me through the tv set.
