...Jeffersons (3), ... Roseanne (2). Today? The Simpsons only have two kids I believe (Bart and Lisa). Is there a third kid?
Yes, the third Simpson kid is Maggie (the baby). "Roseanne" had 4 kids (she had a baby in Season 7). "The Jeffersons" had ONE kid.
When I saw this question, the first show I thought-of, was "Outnumbered". It seems like alot of the shows, with 3 kids, have 2 kids who are close-in-age, and then a baby or much younger child (like on "Roseanne", when it first came-on----and, "Outnumbered").
I'm thinking it's so there's more scope----they can cover teenage situations / problems, and then baby / younger kid situations / problems; of course, I'm thinking they always need a boy and a girl, as well. Like, on "Roseanne", the oldest girl was dating, the middle kid (girl) was a jock, and the youngest kid (at-the-beginning) was just learning how to play checkers, and still asking "Why" and "What does ________ mean?"----so, that gives ALOT of scope; then, later, when Roseanne had a baby, they had even MORE angles, from which to write stories.
