The Rise and Fall of Sitcom Crossovers

Sitcom crossovers were once major TV events, uniting beloved characters from different shows for unforgettable moments. From George Jefferson on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air to Steve Urkel on Full House, and the New Girl & Brooklyn Nine-Nine mashup, these collaborations sparked conversations among fans.
However, with the advent of streaming, network rivalries, and a flood of content, the sitcom crossover has nearly vanished—until now. The unexpected crossover between It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia & Abbott Elementary demonstrated that, when executed well, sitcom mashups can still create magic.
