Lisa never married Johnny Johnson on "Newsradio."

Nope, never happened. After Jimmy & Co relocated to New Hampshire, Dave was lonely and followed. Shortly thereafter, he and Lisa rekindled their relationship.

And they all lived happily ever after.

Yep. That's what happened.

i have so many fanesias i can't possibly list them all but a few of my standouts:

christopher being killed by tony on the last season of the sopranos
warwick being killed of on CSI ( and I still pretend that Grissom is coming back, it's the only way I can watch the show lately)
and randy (or whatever his name was) on the last seasons of that 70s show. and jackie's talk show

Love that you have CJ as COS on here, because before the jump when I read the Fitz part I thought - no, the one moment that didn't happen on WW was CJ/COS!

Also, I think that Amanda storyline is what drove me away from GL. Though that could have been Allison Janney's maid too!

What are you talking about? In the context of the show, CJ was an excellent choice as CoS. According to the show's rules, CoS has to be filled by someone who can stand up to the person that they are working for. Thus Leo, thus Amy Gardner for the first lady, hhis Josh for Santos and thus CJ for Bartlett after Leo left. In the universe of the show, no one, not even Oliver Babbish, had the ability to stare down the president and say "you're wrong here!".

Now, in real life, that's not how it works, but then again, that's true of nearly every aspect of the show. Doesn't matter, the show laid down its own rules and followed them in the manner most appropriate.

I could write a book on this topic - I'm cheating a bit with the premise, but a few standouts for me:

On "Family Ties" Alex doesn't end up with Ellen (or Lauren).

On "Bewitched" Larry never makes Darrin a partner - no McManon, Tate and Stevens.

On "The Wonder Years" Kevin doesn't end up with Winnie and his father dies (realistic but come on).

The entire final season of BSG never happened for me.

"Pushing Daisies" was NOT canceled.

...and one from a feature film (based on a TV Show) Spock and Uhura are not a couple.

Bob, you are right on the money with "The Andy Griffith Show". Barney proved to be the keystone of that series. When he (Don Knotts) left the show, it was never the same. I wonder while he lived, if Don Knotts regretted the decision to leave. I suppose we will never know. The first five seasons....truly classic.

LOST, Season 3, episode: Expose. Nikki & Paulo. nuff said.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit; Olivia was almost raped. That was kinda too scary to watch.

Fred dying and being possessed by Illyria in season 5 of Angel

Andy and Helen never did have a son during "The Andy Griffith Show". In fact, they never even married during the show. It was in the spin-off series, "Mayberry RFD" with Ken Berry as the lead, that Andy and Helen got married (in the first episode) and a year later, the baby arrived. Andy Griffith was only a guest on those episodes. There are some really good episodes in the 6th, 7th and 8th seasons. Also some really pitiful episodes. I also stick with the first 5 seasons most of the time. The Andy/Barney combo made the show.

I never knew that Andy and Helen had a son. That's how little I have watched the color episodes. I was thinking of just buying the first five seasons but I think the DVD of "Return to Mayberry" is only available in the complete series set. I usually don't watch reunion movies but I adore that one.
