Full House did several variations (especially in the earlier years) of: The kids have to keep Danny from discovering _______ in the living room/kitchen/backyard. The best one was the car

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

The best one was the car I dunno, DJ hiding the horse in the living room was....something. Remember, she secretly bought it. How did she get it there from whatever farm it was at? Like, did she ride the damn thing across San Francisco without anyone questioning it?

With one or two exceptions damn near every Power Rangers season for a decade had the "evil Ranger shows up, kicks the ass of the team, leaves, then the team tries to rescue/discover evil Rangers identity, gets their ass kicked a few more times, evil Ranger is free from brainwash/misunderstanding and joins the team." It was just a rehash of Green With Evil. Luckily recent seasons have done the sixth ranger introductions a bit better.

it seems like every 90's sitcom had the exact same B plot with billiards. Kinda nerdy character is assumed to be bad at pool, is actually pool shark, and the live studio audience claps and "wooos". Fresh Prince is the only time that subplot ever worked for me. I want a series to have someone deliberately invoke this, the nerd or square coming up to win their friends' or family's money back, and the person just folds and gives it to them. Then reveal that they're just kind of mediocre, but genre savvy.
