Occasionally, a network will get the brilliant idea to film an episode in 3-D, thus forcing the public to go on a search for the special 3-D glasses that work for this episode alone which are either given out by a store or inserted in a magazine. It's more of a novelty act than anything else. Definitely known for having "cheap 3-D tricks" in which all kinds of weird items (explosions, snakes, guns, anything flying through the air) will shoot out at the viewer. Also a guarantee of Incredibly Bad Writing ensuing as entire plots have to screech to a halt to indulge in the network's gimmickry. As seen below, the 3-D episodes only take place around either sweeps weeks or event programming like after the Super Bowl. Disney theme parks do a lot of these, including Captain EO, Honey, I Shrunk the Audience, Muppet*Vision 3D and It's Tough to Be a Bug!. See also 3-D Movie, Paddleball Shot. |

Arrested Development grudgingly participated in a network mandated 3-D night. The first 3-D scene had GOB throwing a tomato at the camera that had nothing to do with the plot and was never mentioned again. The second one, with Rocky Richter "threatening" Michael also did not have any real effect on what was going on in the episode. | |

The KaBlam! episode Won't Crack or Peel!. The episode focused on Henry and June introducing "KaBlam-o-Vision", which was supposed to have the audience interact with the show (cute little gags like having a Staring Contest with the duo (which included June plucking out her eyeballs and sticking them to the screen). | |

The Rolling Stones: The original release of Their Satanic Majesties Request features a lenticular 3D image of the band against a sky backdrop; the image was meant to occupy the whole cover, but was shrunken down to save money. Most re-releases of the album omit the lenticular effect, including most CD reissues (save for a Japan-exclusive SHM-CD release). | |

The season 4 finale of American Gladiators had this for some reason (more importantly, it was the end of the Larry Czonka era, as the next season brought in Lisa Malosky as cohost and a general Retool). | |

ABC did a weeklong 3D promotion that included The Drew Carey Show, TGIF shows Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Family Matters, and even America's Funniest Home Videos (which was also structured as a Full House reunion show). It did not go well as the writers of each show had to write in the 3-D gags in haphazardly and piecemeal and all of the gags where objects were thrown at the screen were groan-inducing and are now useless when these episodes are rerun. Home Improvement justified its use of 3D during the promotion by having Tim and Al do a 3D episode of the Show Within a Show Tool Time. Therefore all the shameless Paddleball Shots are the result of the characters goofing off with their 3D camera. |

The short-lived Yo Yogi! had as its most noteworthy gimmick the use of 3-D effects in certain scenes (which would usually be signaled by Yogi spinning his hat as a reminder to the kids to put their 3-D glasses on). | |

Svengoolie tried this in 1983 doing a massively-hyped 3D showing of Return Of The Creature. The results were apparently disappointing, and the show would remember it as an Old Shame. | |
