There was a show with an episode or episodes where one character goes on a boat. The boat situation is not what it seems, and they fall out of favor with the boat people. A friend comes to rescue them with a rowboat/lifeboat, and a first, boat person turns them down. Then things escalate further and they go with the rescuer.
I think this is a comedy show. American.
