Please, specify if your pick wasn't unintentionally funny during the entire runtime.

Certain episodes of Law and Order:SVU have been known to strike the unintentionally funny note. The one with Rose (  ) McGowan playing a 'sexpot' who hustles customers at a Plato's Retreat-type sex club may very well be one of the most unintentionally hilarious episodes of any television show ever-- and her performance is eye-rollingly hammy and awful. Catch the melodramatic ending for further laughs. Another one is the story arc where some high-end madam apparently has blackmail material on the entire NYPD at her disposal; Cragen gets caught passed out in bed with a murdered prostitute, yet somehow gets himself cleared (he just hooked up with prostitutes for someone to talk to--uh-huh) and reinstated back to his position as chief of the Sex Crimes Unit! Yes, that's certainly how it would play out in real life, right? |

I remember as a kid watching Marcus Welby, M.D. for laughs. It was one of those shows in which every acquaintance of Dr. Welby would come down with some rare, life-threatening condition, which he would cure by the end of the episode.
Nowadays, my mother watches the Home Shopping Network channels. She doesn't buy stuff; she likes to make fun of the way the hosts gush over the cruddy, overpriced junk they sell.

Damn, I forgot about Quincy!
When me and the boys first started smoking weed and still had the major giggles, we would watch Quincy episodes that were aired during the day. We did a lot of laughing. 🤩✌

As much as I loved Dark Shadows during its first run, I laughed when I saw it years later in reruns. Barnabas never appeared in one episode when he didn't fumble with his lines. Grayson Hall, in all her multiple roles was always mugging ridiculously. Quentin's perpetually cynical demeanor was hammy as hell. Apart from the acting quirks, technical glitches were often ignored. Stage technicians would wander onto the set occasionally. One episode showed Joan Bennett being pestered by a fly buzzing around her face while she was trying to recite her lines. For some reason they never tried to remove any continuity errors. As a child, I never even noticed but years later I couldn't help laughing at the mistakes.

Actually that show is a drama. Pay attention to the title of the thread. Unintentionally funny shows of all time. This is not considered a comedy. Not like Simpsons, not like Seinfeld, not like the King of Queens, not like I Love Lucy. This was a drama. Well, dramas can have (intentionally) funny moments. You showed evidence of that. That doesn't mean they're not dramas overall. This thread is for dramas that we laughed at due to their mistakes.
