Why did everyone always get the same thing on that show?
“Give him an IV D5W Ringers Lactate.”
Like a Pavlovian response, whenever I see a walkie-talkie, I am overwhelmed with the urge to speak that line into it. (Unfortunately, when I do, no one knows what the hell I’m talking about.)
Also, when I read or hear the word, “Danger”, I want to swing my forearms up and down in front of my chest saying,
“Danger Will Robinson.”
Are there any lines from old TV shows or stories from your childhood that come back to haunt you in every-day life?
There a new commercial for seasoned cooking sauces, where the family is initially saddened by a chicken dinner, saying, “Oh, chicken.” Then, after being cooked with the new sauces, they exclaim, “Oooh, chick-EN!” At the end, they’re offered flounder cooked with the sauce. “Fla-lounder!” they exclaim.
I now think (and sometimes say), “Flounder!” when I make a mental breakthough.
Another TV commercial cite:
'Member that old Shake 'n Bake ad where the little girl chimes in proudly (in a campy southern accent):"…and Ahhhh haellllped"?
Comes up in our household from time to time. Especially when someone’s getting kudoes for the food.

From “Happy Days”: "Sit on it!"
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!"
From “The Cosby Show”:
the word zrbrt
From “The Odd Couple”:
(With illustitive diagram) “When you assume, you make an ass out of you and me”.
From “Hogan’s Heros”: "I saw nathink. NAWWWWWTHINK!"
My ex-girlfriend, now friend used this one all the time. When she was really irritated with me, she’d change “soup” to “sex”. She thought this was extremely clever. I think this may have contributed to our breakup. (Her sense of humor, I mean. Not what you’re thinking.) We used most of the other quotes with each other too. Maybe it was Nick at Nite that broke us up.
