Growing Pains (TV)/YMMV
- Funny Aneurysm Moment: Any instance of Carol being teased about her weight. Hollywood Pudgy actress Tracey Gold, who played her, would go on to have a well-known (and near-fatal) battle with anorexia.
- Almost any appearance of Boner, given the actor's tragic death.
- Retroactive Recognition: Matthew Perry, years before Friends, played Carol's doomed boyfriend, Sandy. Also, as mentioned above, Leonardo DiCaprio as temporary family member Luke.
