How about celebrity billiards with Fats. I can't remember the guests but I remember Fats as the host.
 
The Waltons - The episode where the family said "Goodnight Johnboy" after his dad ran 100 balls made of adobe.
 
I don't have a video link, but there was the "I Dream of Jeannie" episode with Jim Bacchus guest starring.

Like most things on this show, the pool aspect is completely silly. It is obvious the director knows very little about the game. Maj.Nelson/ Hagman often cues up on a numbered ball, and nobody bothered to correct that while filming.

If you think (like I do) that Barbara Eden is one of the most beautiful women who ever lived, the high point is when Jeannie/Eden crawls around under the table.

Remember, they used to call the cues "Pot Holders Pot Passers and Meat Sticks", Jed witteld a few down to a point to stab the meat.

In the early episodes they had a billiard table, then in a later episode I seem to remember a pool hustler in the house and the table had pockets all the sudden.:D
 
The "CSI" from Vegas had an episode where they had a guy who was involved in some kind of fantasy and he met this girl in the pool hall and won a bunch of money, then somebody got killed and Catherine traced it back to the pool hall cause of the Chalk on the guys jacket, the lab geek told her it was not really chalk but a silica mix or something and tried to explain it's origins to her along with the origin of the leather tip.:thumbup:

I'll go for that!

how about every episode of MTV cribs, ever. although typically the balls are racked on the table and nobody's playing and its been like that since they bought the house.
