00:00Francis, this baby's gonna be born any minute. I want you to do something for me.
00:04What do you want me to do?
00:06I want you to deliver the baby!
00:07Welcome to Ms. Mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the most painfully hilarious
00:13moments when a TV baby decided to start making their entrance.
00:16I'm Phoebe Buffay and I have babies coming out of me.
00:21Number 30. Bernadette Rostenkowski-Wolowitz. The Big Bang Theory.
00:26To be fair, either of Bernadette's labor stories could have made our list,
00:30but we're going with the first one.
00:32Okay, I can do this. We have a plan. Somebody please tell me the plan!
00:38I'll get the hospital bag.
00:39I blew the van up.
00:40Me outside in two minutes.
00:41Steam baby, go!
00:43For starters, while most expectant parents may prefer to share this precious moment alone,
00:48Bernadette rolls into the hospital with an entourage. After a false start, they're sent home,
00:54where Raj drops a huge reveal that gets him booted from team baby.
00:58All right, enough with the camera.
01:00This is not for me. This is for the baby. Someday she's gonna want to see this.
01:05I'm sorry. Who's gonna want to see this?
01:08Meanwhile, Bernadette's slow labor delays Amy and Sheldon's annual night of passion,
01:13leading the birthday girl to hilariously quip,
01:17Yeah, but I thought this baby was supposed to ruin their sex life, not mine.
01:20Eventually, the soon-to-be parents steal a moment alone before their bundle of joy arrives.
01:27Just a heads up to the medical staff, approach Bernadette's cervix at your own risk.
01:31Need to get the nurse?
01:32No! If one more person puts their fingers near my uterus,
01:35I'm gonna cross my legs and snap them off!
01:4029. Zelina, Once Upon a Time
01:43Pretending to be a midwife isn't quite the same as, you know,
01:46actually training as one, but don't tell Zelina that.
01:50You have to stay calm and breathe.
01:52Shut up! I was a fake midwife. I know the drill.
01:54Zelina, why would Emma do this?
01:56I have no idea!
01:57Are you sure it was her?
01:58Let's just say when the dark went off, did you want onion rings?
02:02Last time we saw her, she was still in her first trimester,
02:06but it turns out that onion rings seasoned with dark magic can really speed a pregnancy along.
02:11Regina and Robin rush her to the hospital,
02:13where she encounters the very wry and questionably qualified Dr. Whale.
02:20Someone scream for a doctor?
02:22There is an angry baby inside of me! Get it out!
02:24You know, the last time I delivered a baby, you tried to steal it,
02:28but why try to steal one when making one is so much more fun, right?
02:32It probably doesn't help that Zelina and Whale have some past beef too.
02:36She may want that angry baby out of her, but we're guessing Dr. Whale wouldn't mind
02:40getting this irate patient out of his delivery room, preferably before she tosses him across it.
02:46Oh my god, stop talking! Didn't I kill you the last time I was here?
02:49No, you just threw me across the room. I hope that doesn't happen again this time.
02:54Okay, all business today. Got it.
02:56Number 28. Wanda Maximoff.
02:59WandaVision.
03:00Each episode of WandaVision parodies a different era of classic sitcoms.
03:04Episode 3 takes us to the 70s, where Wanda and Vision brace themselves for parenthood.
03:09Definitely pregnant.
03:12Well, that much we figured.
03:14It's just kind of taken us by surprise, just kind of suddenly, quite suddenly, wasn't it?
03:18I mean, practically overnight.
03:20True to sitcom tradition, Wanda's pregnancy defies all biological norms.
03:24Plus, her contractions are powerful enough to trigger a neighborhood-wide blackout.
03:29Additionally, the usual...
03:31I think my water just broke.
03:32...line takes an unexpected turn.
03:35Yeah, it does bring a whole new meaning to water birth.
03:38The episode pokes fun at the cliche of hiding pregnancies with props.
03:42Also, the arrival of a stork, yes, an actual stork, only adds to the hilarity.
03:47So I'm trying every trick in the book to help this poor man.
03:51I'm hiding behind filing cabinets and jumping out when he least expects it.
03:59And hey, why have just one baby when you can have surprise twins?
04:03It's double the chaos and double the laughs.
04:0520 fingers and 20 toes.
04:08You've got two healthy baby boys on your hands.
04:12Thank you, doctor.
04:14All in a day's work.
04:15Number 27.
04:16Mary, the Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
04:19It's Christmas at the Tipton, every room is booked,
04:22and a heavily pregnant Mary seeks refuge from a snowstorm.
04:25What could happen?
04:27The bags!
04:28Hurry back!
04:29Perhaps a kid who's just learned there's no chance of his parents getting back together,
04:34and his twin brother will join her in the elevator.
04:36Which, of course, will get stuck.
04:38Cody thinks he's ready to help with the birth, but reality hits hard.
04:42Shining as brightly as Rudolph's nose on Christmas Eve.
04:45Okay, we're going to need boiling water, towels, twine, and scissors.
04:49Let me check the elevator gift shop.
04:52Oh look!
04:53There isn't one!
04:55Would we want to be stuck in an elevator with two 12-year-old birthing assistants?
04:59Probably not.
04:59But hey, it'll be a great story to tell her daughter someday.
05:03One of you on the floor is enough.
05:04What should I do now?
05:05Catch the baby when it comes out.
05:08So not happening.
05:09Luckily, the doors open just in time for the adults to take over.
05:13Man, I'm never having kids.
05:16Number 26.
05:17Vanessa Scott.
05:19My wife and kids.
05:20As Vanessa's due date nears, Michael jumps into action,
05:23crafting a plan complete with an actual script for the big moment.
05:27Another contraction has come!
05:29Please hurry!
05:30Please, please!
05:31I feel the baby coming!
05:32Wait, wait, wait.
05:33That's not in the script.
05:34I was out living.
05:36Don't do that.
05:37However, in sitcoms, as in reality, things don't always go according to plan.
05:42When Vanessa actually goes into labor,
05:44Michael's meticulously crafted plan goes right out the window.
05:47Acting's a little over the top, hon, but I like the commitment.
05:50Look, she left a puddle outside as if a water broke.
05:53My water did break!
05:54I'm having this baby now!
05:56Screaming ensues, Junior tumbles down the stairs,
05:59Jay faints, and Michael unexpectedly finds himself delivering his own grandbaby,
06:04none of which was in his script.
06:06Plus, Vanessa's language turns out to be far more colorful than anything he could have penned.
06:10If you don't shut up, you'll never breathe again!
06:12Daddy, I'm scared!
06:14And if you thought 12-year-olds were too young to assist with a birth,
06:18wait until you meet Franklin.
06:19Okay, the baby just winked at me.
06:21What does that tell you?
06:22It tells me you better get in the catching position.
06:24It's chaotic, but one of the series' funniest moments.
06:28Number 25.
06:29Keiko O'Brien.
06:31Star Trek The Next Generation.
06:33No to anyone, human or otherwise, suddenly tasked with delivering a baby.
06:37It's not quite like commanding a starship enterprise crew.
06:41I'm going into labor.
06:43You cannot.
06:44This is not a good time, Keiko.
06:46It's not open for debate, like it or not, this baby is coming.
06:50For one thing, the baby doesn't take commands from anyone just yet.
06:54Worf finds this out the hard way when Keiko goes into labor
06:57while they're already caring for injured crew members.
07:00Your contractions are now only 30 seconds apart.
07:05Dilation has gone to seven centimeters since the onset of labor.
07:09That did not take long.
07:10It's easy for you to say.
07:13Despite Worf's lack of obstetrics expertise,
07:16he's the only one available to assist her.
07:19Why has it not begun?
07:21I don't know.
07:23I don't think it's up to me.
07:24It happens when it happens.
07:27Computer simulation was not like this.
07:29That delivery was very orderly.
07:31Let's just say that if a textbook could deliver a baby, it might sound like this.
07:36His usual stoic demeanor, which might be perfect for running a spacecraft,
07:40proves comically out of place during childbirth.
07:43Push, Keiko.
07:44Push hard.
07:47Push, Keiko.
07:48Push.
07:49Push!
07:50Push!
07:50I am pushing!
07:52He might not offer much comfort, but he gets the job done.
07:55Number 24.
07:57Gloria Stivic.
07:58All in the family.
07:59Nothing ruins a romantic night like your partner having contractions before dinner is even served.
08:04Let me see.
08:0520 minutes would mean that the contractions are coming.
08:10About 20 minutes apart.
08:12Right.
08:13Okay.
08:14All right.
08:15We just, we're calm.
08:16We're calm.
08:18One moment, you're toasting to your lives together, and the next,
08:21you're scrambling to get organized and borrowing money from your server to make a call.
08:25I need this money, dear.
08:26Just take a few cents here.
08:29Let me help you, sir.
08:31Grazie.
08:32Prego.
08:33She sure is.
08:34Yes, Mike panics when Gloria goes into labor,
08:37but not as much as when he realizes she and the baby are trapped in a phone booth.
08:42While it might not be the ideal place to be stuck at such a crucial moment,
08:45at least her doctor is just a phone call away.
08:48She's stuck!
08:50My whole family is stuck in a phone booth!
08:52Mike, she, she...
08:54Waiter!
08:54Waiter, help me!
08:56Even after they get her out of the phone booth and into a hospital,
09:00Mike remains a nervous wreck.
09:02Keep calm, Mr. Stivic.
09:03We haven't lost a father yet.
09:05You hear what she said, honey?
09:06We haven't lost a father yet.
09:08Isn't she terrific?
09:09Everybody's terrific!
09:10The whole thing's terrific!
09:11Number 23.
09:12Cheyenne Lee.
09:13Superstore.
09:14The moment Amy's water broke certainly elicited some laughter from all of us.
09:19Do you have any room in your car?
09:20I think maybe my water just broke.
09:23Oh my god.
09:24No, no, you're not due for another three weeks.
09:26Oh yeah, that's right.
09:28Never mind.
09:29However, Cheyenne's labor story was a huge hysterical mess.
09:33A big chain store isn't exactly the ideal spot to have a baby,
09:36but hey, at least it's well-stocked.
09:38For instance, Mateo gets sidetracked while gathering towels.
09:42We guess he wanted this baby to be born with style and comfort.
09:45Meanwhile, Garrett documents everything for the baby's dad,
09:49and customers still expect service.
09:51You're doing great!
09:52I'm right here.
09:54Excuse me, miss.
09:55What's the difference between a sunblock and a sunscreen?
09:58This is it!
09:59The baby's coming!
10:01Just when you think things can't get any wilder, it turns out to be false labor.
10:05The contraction stopped.
10:08Oh, that's um, huh.
10:10Braxton Hicks, I guess.
10:11It's false labor.
10:14I guess I should put on my pants now.
10:16However, she ultimately gives birth in the store,
10:19and as she holds her daughter, she looks like she's on cloud nine.
10:23Number 22.
10:24Temperance Bones Brennan.
10:26Bones.
10:27Even going into labor can't slow you down when you're on the verge of cracking a case.
10:31Just ask Angela.
10:33You've been jumping around all day and when my water breaks you don't even notice?
10:37What?
10:38Oh my god.
10:39Oh my god.
10:40Okay, here we go.
10:41Here we go.
10:42It's showtime!
10:44Being in the middle of a prison riot while nine months pregnant isn't ideal either.
10:48Sure, we've seen that false labor is a thing, just not this time.
10:52Bones, you all right?
10:53Yes, it's just Braxton Hicks contractions.
10:55I've been having them for the past month.
10:57Okay, well then that's exactly why that we should-
10:59Brennan!
11:00So after apprehending their suspect's shoes, Bones suddenly shifts gears,
11:05urgently telling Booth they need to get to the hospital immediately.
11:08Get his shoes, we have to run.
11:10Why, where are you going?
11:11I'm in labor.
11:12Right, she's in labor now.
11:14Bones!
11:15With no time to find one, they stop at an inn, only to be told there's no room.
11:20Bones hilariously threatens to give birth right there on the lawn if they don't find her somewhere.
11:25Hey, you don't mess with Bones.
11:27I'm about to push this baby out right now and if you don't find me a place to do that I'm
11:31gonna get out of this car, squat down on the lawn, and have this baby right here.
11:35She will still squat on the lawn.
11:37Number 21, Amy Santiago.
11:39Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
11:41Always the professional, nothing can throw Amy off her policing game.
11:45During a borough-wide blackout, Captain Holt and Terry get trapped in an elevator,
11:50leaving Amy to take charge.
11:51I need a pair of sweatpants and check again on that status update from ESU.
11:55All right, go, go, go!
11:57What do you need sweatpants for?
11:58My water just broke, which reminds me we should be prepared to distribute emergency water and food.
12:03Your water just broke?!
12:04Did her water just break?
12:06Yeah, but there's work to be done, and apparently it's nothing a fresh pair of sweatpants can't handle.
12:10While Amy keeps her sergeant hat on, Rosa times her contractions,
12:15and even Hitchcock and Scully manage to be surprisingly helpful.
12:18I promise I will go to the hospital as soon as...
12:23Amy, just make the noise, you're not fooling anybody.
12:27Where's Jake, you might ask?
12:29Oh, just out keeping the streets of Brooklyn safe.
12:31While he's doing his best to get back to Amy,
12:34she's in, um, capable hands.
12:36It's just too bad that he misses the show.
12:38Shhh!
12:39Ah!
12:39Shh!
12:40Bullshit!
12:41Hi!
12:42He's a fool!
12:43Shhh!
12:43Ah!
12:43Shh!
12:44Bullshit!
12:46He's a fool!
12:46Yeah, I'm definitely distracted.
12:48Number 20.
12:49Shirley Bennett.
12:50Community.
12:51Okay, oh boy, can someone please get every mop on campus?
12:55Um, did you break water?
12:57Is that broken water?
12:58Shirley goes into labor during the class's ridiculous anthropology finals,
13:03but with a food festival blocking the roads,
13:05she has no choice but to start delivering there and then.
13:09Most of the students sit and watch as if this is just a typical day in class.
13:13We came so close to having one class that wasn't all about them.
13:17Remember when they all took that fishing trip on St. Patrick's Day?
13:20God, that was a good week.
13:21Meanwhile, not all of Shirley's pals are coming off quite as well-meaning as perhaps they intend.
13:27Due to prior experience earlier in the season,
13:29Abed jumps into action, only Shirley isn't comfortable having him peek at her nethers.
13:34I just need to take a look and see how far along you are.
13:37Oh no, I'm sorry, Abed.
13:38I don't feel comfortable with you taking a grand tour of my nethers.
13:41I prefer if it's one of the girls.
13:42So he guides Britta through it instead.
13:44It's okay, ma'am.
13:45We can take it from here.
13:46Guys, I got it.
13:47I'm in the zone.
13:48Okay, come on.
13:48Well, we guess that's one way to earn an A plus in anthropology.
13:52Number 19.
13:54Gina's office friend.
13:55Martin.
13:56Hang up, Tommy.
13:57We don't need him.
13:58We can do this, man.
13:58We're men.
13:59We can do this.
14:00Martin says he'll help Gina throw a baby shower for her pregnant friend,
14:04but things take an unexpected turn when Gina gets caught up elsewhere,
14:08and an additional guest decides to make an appearance.
14:11With Tommy and Cole by his side,
14:13Martin gears up in rubber gloves and a shower cap to help deliver Thomasina's baby.
14:18Steady.
14:19This is stalag and diastolic normal.
14:22Cole, where'd you get that from?
14:24Me and Mom's was watching Doogie Howser last night.
14:26In a hilariously ridiculous moment, he catches the infant as it flies across the room.
14:31Funnier still is his response when Tommy asks about the umbilical cord.
14:36Where's the umbilical cord?
14:38Damn it, Tommy.
14:39We don't need an umbilical cord.
14:41This is TV.
14:42And somehow it just gets more absurd from there.
14:46There's nothing more comical than a show that acknowledges how unrealistic TV births can be.
14:51I gotta wash the baby.
14:52I saw this on emergency.
14:58Number 18.
14:59Petra Solano.
15:00Jane the Virgin.
15:01It's not a big splash like they show on TV.
15:03Does it feel like you're peeing?
15:04Yep, just feels like you're peeing.
15:06Oh my god, I feel like I'm peeing.
15:07After Jane's dreamy birth story,
15:09the writers decided that Petra's needed to be a bit more action-packed and humorous.
15:14So unlike her frenemy's euphoric experience, almost anything that can go wrong does.
15:20With only Jane around to help, this storyline focused on the rocky relationship between the two
15:25and how that dynamic changes as a result.
15:27After all, having your frenemy as a birthing partner
15:30is the perfect opportunity to share exactly what's on your mind.
15:33Five minutes of pain for a lifetime of happiness.
15:44Petra eventually delivers twin girls, Anna and Elsa,
15:48definitely not named after the Frozen characters.
15:51As for the hostility with Jane, perhaps motherhood will help her let it go.
15:55Sorry I called you all those horrible names.
15:58You didn't.
15:59Oh, I did. Trust me, it was just in check.
16:01Number 17, Amy Duncan.
16:03Good luck, Charlie.
16:04One week ago, the new baby was due.
16:07Let's see how that baby's doing now.
16:09I want you out!
16:11With the baby overdue, the family tries to prevent Amy from giving birth on Charlie's birthday.
16:16But as we all know, it's kind of hard to predict when these things might happen.
16:20For starters, you probably wouldn't choose an ice cream truck
16:23as a location to give birth if you could.
16:25Emergency?
16:27This calls for the fast-paced music.
16:35And you might want a medical professional around
16:37rather than your easily stressed husband and teenage daughter.
16:41Dad, I don't know how to deliver a baby.
16:43Honey, you just gotta help me.
16:44However, when Teddy's car runs out of gas on the way to the hospital,
16:48they're left with no alternative.
16:50No one handles the stress worse than Bob,
16:52but he finds a pretty sweet way to deal with it.
16:54Baby's close. How much further?
16:56You're not helping yourself to any freebies back there, are you, Bob?
16:59I'm a stress eater, Pete.
17:01Number 16. Carla Espinosa.
17:03Scrubs.
17:04They might work at a hospital, but J.D. and Turk are clueless when it comes to childbirth.
17:09He's here, and now we can have our baby!
17:11Okay, brown bear, commence Operation Brown Cup.
17:14For one thing, they seem to forget that it's actually Turk and Carla who are having the baby.
17:18While they're busy celebrating with fanfare and forgetting essential items,
17:22Elliot steps up to help Carla in her time of need.
17:25Not wanting to be outshone, Turk plans to make a hero's comeback,
17:29only for that to backfire too.
17:31Hey, baby, I know things haven't exactly gone smoothly so far,
17:35but I promise you I'm about to make it up to you.
17:37Meanwhile, Ted manages to live stream the event across the hospital.
17:41Greatest show ever.
17:44Ultimately, Turk comes through for Carla,
17:46even finding the upside to getting his hand stuck in an ice machine.
17:50Turk, you're here. I'm so hot.
17:54Oh, don't sweat it. I gotcha.
17:57Number 15. Fran Fine, the nanny.
18:00Okay, don't panic. Don't panic.
18:02Eventually, they'll notice that we're missing, and they'll come and find us.
18:06My God, what happens if I go into labor?
18:09When a heavily pregnant woman enters an elevator with arguably the worst birthing
18:12partner imaginable, you can guess what's about to go down.
18:16For Fran, there's no one worse than Cece, who smokes, drinks, and deliberates over
18:20her own relationship, all while ignoring Fran, who is by now laying on the elevator floor.
18:26In fact, it's Fran who ends up reassuring Cece rather than the other way around.
18:31Eventually, music brings the ladies together,
18:33with Fran's contractions providing some unexpected harmonies.
18:36Soon, for at least until tomorrow, we'll never fall in love again.
18:46Also, let's not forget that Cece and Niles end up getting married over Fran's hospital bed
18:50while she's still in labor.
18:52Hopefully, don't flee. We're about to have two more guests at the wedding.
18:55Say I do!
18:56I do!
18:57Number 14. Rachel Green, Friends.
19:00Ross, we've tried all the spicy food. It's not working.
19:04Poor Rachel. She's overdue, uncomfortable,
19:06and in labor for most of the two-part season 8 finale.
19:10But with the baby in no rush to come out,
19:12she must now also endure an array of colorful roommates, including one familiar face.
19:18Weirdest thing.
19:18Did I hear...
19:21Mother, God is true.
19:24Taylor thing!
19:27All the other women come and go while she's barely dilated.
19:30However, the baby seems to pick her moments and decides it's time to come out,
19:34just as her mom is on her last nerve.
19:36The birth doesn't go any smoother,
19:38with Ross almost getting knocked out by the mother of his child.
19:42You have no idea how much this hurts.
19:44Hey Ross, maybe now is not the time to complain about your pain.
19:48Number 13. Quinn Fabbre, Glee.
19:51Mama!
19:52Oh, that hurts so bad!
19:53Life had just begun!
19:55My daughter was having a baby!
19:56But now I've got to throw it all away!
20:02Wait! Wait!
20:03While this one may not have been intentionally written to make audiences laugh,
20:07it certainly succeeded.
20:09For some inexplicable reason,
20:11the writers decided to have Quinn's labor progress in tandem
20:15with Vocal Adrenaline's performance of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.
20:33Let's just say that the result isn't perhaps quite as dramatic as they had hoped for.
20:38Instead, it cuts back and forth between the two events,
20:40with Quinn even filling in some of the lyrics.
20:50Well, at least the parts of Vocal Adrenaline's performance we get to see are pretty impressive.
20:55Also, props to Quinn for delivering a baby in the time it takes to sing this Queen classic.
21:08Number 12. Scream to Music, Murphy Brown.
21:15I made it! Any baby yet?
21:17No! Where the hell have you been, Frank?
21:19This Emmy-winning episode managed to be both progressive and funny,
21:22but was considered rather controversial for its time.
21:26Even though she's a single mother,
21:27Murphy is surrounded by her well-meaning, albeit slightly useless, friends.
21:31For instance, Frank didn't end up packing her anything she actually needed,
21:36and Jim wants minimal involvement.
21:38Here's your bathing suit.
21:40This is great! And what a coincidence!
21:43I was just thinking how I wanted to put on all my underwear and staple something!
21:47There's also a unique sense of humor here that wasn't often seen in shows of its time,
21:51likely due to its two female writers.
21:54This episode has the perfect balance of sentimentality,
21:57with comedy interspersed in all the right moments.
22:00Number 11. Lily Aldrin, How I Met Your Mother.
22:03I hope Marshall's close. Cue me.
22:08I'm on my way, Lily.
22:10Mid-birth is not the best time to suggest baby names.
22:13Ending their seventh season on a frantic and packed note,
22:16this episode sees Lily finally go into labor,
22:19but is so stubborn about going to the hospital with Marshall
22:22that she refuses to leave until Ted and Robin end up distracting her enough to leave.
22:26I'm on it. Lily, spread your legs. I'm going to see if we can see the hooves.
22:30It's down. Up the head.
22:31With Marshall trying to get back to Manhattan after being stuck in Atlantic City,
22:35he ends up getting Barney's help for the way home, but not without a baby-naming condition.
22:40The name is Wait For It.
22:44That is the coolest middle name of all time!
22:48Arriving in the nick of time, Lily loves the condition,
22:51naming their son Marvin Wait-For-It Erickson.
22:54Marvin Wait-For-It Erickson.
22:57That is the coolest middle name of all time!
23:02Number 10. Brie and Danielle Vandekamp.
23:05Desperate Housewives.
23:06I expressly forbid her from coming tonight. Who does she think she is?
23:10This isn't exactly the kind of horror you typically associate with a birth.
23:13Playing an easily convincing pregnant mom for a Halloween party,
23:16Danielle is playing with guests right until Brie throws her out for her own good.
23:20You make a scene, ha! That's a laugh.
23:22What's wrong? I think my water just broke.
23:28A little too late, however, as Danielle's water breaks mid-argument,
23:32forcing Brie to act as the problem-solving mother instead.
23:36Moving houses, they ask Orson to deliver the baby first before realizing he's both
23:40extremely underqualified and very drunk.
23:43You're a dentist! What if there are complications?
23:47Should an emergency arise, we will simply call an amulet.
23:50A what?
23:51Ambulance.
23:53How many rum punches did you have?
23:54Finding the best person for the job, Brie grabs Adam, who hobbles over in a Frankenstein outfit,
24:00delivering the baby all while in costume to the fright of local children.
24:08Number 9. Looking Too Much.
24:11Everybody Loves Raymond.
24:12I just thought that since you're a cop, maybe we could walk a little faster,
24:16like right through the red light.
24:17Training doesn't always prepare you for the emotions of a situation.
24:20Driving a very pregnant Deborah to the hospital,
24:23Robert and Ray start fighting as they get stuck in traffic on the bridge.
24:26Wait a minute, Robert, which way are you going?
24:27This is the L.A.E. I said to take the bridge!
24:29Right as they stop, Deborah's contractions kick into high gear,
24:33and they're forced to deliver the baby on the road.
24:36Robert takes over with his emergency training,
24:38putting himself into an incredibly awkward point of view.
24:41Screaming at Ray for his unbearably protective instincts,
24:44Deborah tears into him to get Ray under control.
24:47Realizing in shock that Deborah's not even giving birth,
24:50everyone gets back to their seats in awkward silence.
24:53Maybe it's not hurting so much anymore.
24:57Will you stop looking then? Stop looking!
25:00Number 8. Pam Beasley.
25:02The Office.
25:03Why don't I just run you down to the hospital and just do a quick check?
25:06Not till midnight.
25:07Getting involved can go way too far.
25:10When Pam's contractions finally become too much,
25:12she tries to call off the whole birth before Jim reassures her to go.
25:16With Kevin and Michael getting way too personal with him.
25:19We're gonna have a baby.
25:21So let's have it at the hospital.
25:22Let's do that.
25:23Grabbing their gear, Jim and Pam head to the elevator right as work gets out,
25:27with Stanley running to grab the elevator behind them.
25:30Hold it!
25:31Come on, Stanley! Okay, we're going now.
25:34Nope, one more.
25:35No, no, no, no! Out, out, out, you idiot!
25:38Dwight's unnecessary role as escort gets particularly hairy,
25:42as he gets pulled over for impersonating a police officer.
25:45Even throwing away weapons in the process.
25:47Pulling into the hospital, Michael even takes an ambulance's parking spot.
25:51You can't park here!
25:56I just did.
25:56Number 7. Meter Running.
25:59Frasier.
25:59You're pregnant?
26:00Yes.
26:01Ow!
26:03Well, don't panic, miss. It may just be false labor.
26:05Hopping in a taxi after Frasier's fancy car breaks down,
26:08Martin, Niles, and Frasier stop bickering just in time to talk to their cab driver
26:13and discover her water broke.
26:15My water just broke. I'm sitting here in a puddle of water.
26:18Pulling over while trying to save his shoes,
26:21Niles takes the first stab at delivering the driver's baby,
26:24revealing he fainted in medical school.
26:26Sorry, I only did this once before in medical school,
26:28and all I remember is a bright light and lots of blood,
26:30and then a linoleum floor hurtling toward my forehead.
26:32Frasier takes over, soothing the driver's breathing down
26:35while annoying her with his incessant nitpicking.
26:38Not that your lower portion is messy at all.
26:40It's quite beautiful, actually.
26:41Not that I'm looking!
26:44Is the pain that bad?
26:45No, you're driving me crazy!
26:47Martin finally takes over, clearly the most level-headed and qualified,
26:51setting the boys to work before Niles chimes in about their meter.
26:55And I'm gonna get ready to bring your beautiful baby into this world, okay?
26:59Okay.
26:59Good. Now, are there any questions?
27:01Yes. Should our meter still be running?
27:02Number six. Rebecca Donaldson. Full house.
27:06Everybody, this is it. Becky's ready to have twins.
27:08Going into labor three weeks early at a party,
27:11Becky is forced to leave Michelle's Flintstones birthday to go to the hospital.
27:14Jess, why don't you just stick a sign on my back that says wide load?
27:18Jesse starts freaking out in the waiting room,
27:20noticeably pained enough to time his own contraction along with Becky's.
27:24Ending up in surgery for appendicitis, he has Danny swap in,
27:28who coaches Becky through her birth with a hilarious rendition of We Will Rock You.
27:32We will, we will rock you. Sing it!
27:41Wheeled back in on anesthesia, Jesse arrives just in time to see his new twins born,
27:46while deliriously singing and goofing around on the drugs.
27:49Having my baby!
27:50Come on, you're doing great! I can see the head!
27:52I love you, Becky!
27:55Whoa!
27:55Shut up!
27:56Number five. Lois. Malcolm in the middle.
27:59No, honey, I don't want you to get too excited,
28:01but I think you should come home now because I'm, well, I'm, I'm having the baby.
28:07In one of the most chaotic scenes, Lois goes into labor with only her awful mother,
28:12Frances, and Hal's poker buddies for help. Meanwhile, Hal and the boys get themselves
28:17into a predicament that lands Hal in the hospital and unable to reach his wife.
28:21While Lois tries to cope with labor pains through the pandemonium,
28:24Hal hallucinates all sorts of wacky scenarios,
28:28and the boys decide to go and learn more about birth and babies.
28:32Ultimately, it's Frances who ends up having to deliver the baby.
28:35Now you're going to put your hands inside of mommy and take out this baby!
28:40The episode ends with the brothers taking their duties extremely seriously,
28:44while the baby's gender remains deliberately unknown.
28:47Number four. Phoebe Buffay. Friends.
28:49I'm Phoebe Buffay, and I have babies coming out of me.
28:52Phoebe handles being in labor pretty much how she handles everything else,
28:56with surprising and remarkable positivity.
28:59No, none of them are the father. The father is my brother.
29:03Okay.
29:04Contractions? No problem. Your scheduled doctor can't come? Sure.
29:08Your substitute doctor has an affinity for the Fonz? Eh, maybe this won't be so easy.
29:13Fonzie is the nickname of Arthur Fonzarelli.
29:18The Fonz.
29:18In the end, though, the Doc knows what he's doing,
29:21even if he has some unorthodox ways to get into the zone to deliver.
29:25Phoebe powers through and gives birth to Frank Jr. Jr.,
29:28Leslie, and Chandler, who turns out to be a girl.
29:30Hey, where's his thing?
29:37Chandler's a girl!
29:38It's a birthing scene worthy of two thumbs up and an enthusiastic A.
29:43Number three. Vivian Banks. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
29:48What a novel idea, that little bell.
29:54Pregnancy rarely deals out this much aggression.
29:56Annoying her entire family with her incessant bell ringing,
29:59Stop with the damn bell!
30:03Aunt Viv brings the entire family together against her.
30:06Please, Diva needs to get her butt out of Bel-Air a little more often.
30:11Getting to the hospital ahead of the family,
30:13Vivian is already ready to deliver when everyone arrives.
30:16Running into the rest of her kids, Phil gets directions to Viv
30:20and jumps into action so fast that he barrels right over a stretcher,
30:24and crashes right onto the floor in his frantic stress.
30:30Number two. Gloria Delgado Pritchett. Modern Family.
30:34The only proper way to crash a birthday is with another birthday.
30:37After planning a whole party and special day for Manny,
30:40Gloria's water breaks in the middle of the events,
30:43with Jay saving the day by getting Gloria to the hospital
30:46and ordering pizza for the rest of the guests.
30:51No way! She peed! Her water broke!
30:53As family arrives, they hear screaming and run to what they presume will be a screaming Gloria.
30:59Oh my gosh, it's happening!
31:04They enter to find Jay screaming as Gloria crushes his hand,
31:07and Manny convinces his mom to stop holding the baby in,
31:10making for a briefly touching moment,
31:12before understanding his dad's pain when she grabs his hand too.

31:381. Lucy Ricardo – I Love Lucy
31:49No matter how much planning you put in, sometimes the universe has other ideas.
31:54With Lucy ready to pop at any moment, Ricky is unhinged in his anxiety,
31:58quickly roping in Fred and Ethel to his madness.
32:08Starting rehearsals for Lucy's birth, Ricky sets everyone a job,
32:14with Ethel on the phone, Fred carrying her bag, and him managing his pained wife.
32:19Oblivious to the rehearsals, Lucy comes in ready to go.
32:30Put into a frenzy, Ricky is knocked into the couch,
32:33having to do all the jobs in one hilarious mess.
32:39Ricky even forgets Lucy in the struggle, and hurts himself along the way.
