10 Sitcoms That Travelled to Disneyland or The Magic Kingdom For a Very Special Episode

The Tanners embark on a trip from California to Florida after Uncle Jesse's band, Jesse and the Rippers, is invited to play at the Magic Kingdom. Naturally, there's plenty of sibling drama when Michelle is crowned Princess of the Day instead of Stephanie, and DJ can't stop seeing her boyfriend Steve, who couldn't make the trip, all over the park. There's even a scene where he pops up in a parade as Aladdin – a small nod to his real-life role as the voice of Aladdin in the 1992 Disney animated feature.

In this episode, the Winslows tag along to Disney World with Steve Urkel after he learns he is a finalist in an inventor's contest and can take as many people to Disney with him as he wants – a pretty nice prize for a contest he hasn't even won yet. Steve's invention transforms him into his suave alter ego, Stefan Urquelle. Steve's crush Laura seems to prefer him this way, but his girlfriend back home has a few choice words to say about their newfound romance.

In this episode, the extended Pritchett-Dunphy-Tucker family, who all live close by in the suburbs of Los Angeles, decides to venture out on a day-trip to Disneyland. Oddly enough, two of the episode's plotlines have to do with footwear. Mitchell and Cam resort to buying child-size high heels for daughter Lily after she attempts to run away one too many times, and Jay purchases a pair of giant, fuzzy Minnie Mouse slippers for Gloria after her too-tall heels become a major pain.

If you thought driving for two days to Disney World when your tickets were actually for Disneyland is the worst thing that could happen on holiday, you haven't met the Hecks. Management lets them stay, but that's really where the trouble begins. As they bump up against obstacle after obstacle, you begin to wonder if they'll ever get to enjoy a single ride. It's not all bad, though – they do end up in what appears to be one of Disney World's most expensive hotel rooms, from which mom Sue steals copious amounts of toilet paper.

Though it is currently the newest sitcom to visit a Disney park, because it's set in the '80s, this episode of The Goldbergs actually takes place before any of the others covered here. After being inspired by National Lampoon's Holiday, Mrs. Goldberg decides to take the gang on their own family holiday to Disneyland. The majority of the episode takes place in the car because it would be pretty difficult to get that vintage feel while filming inside a modern-day Disneyland, but their eventual arrival at the parks provides a well-worth-it (and tear-inducing) payoff.
