Memorable tv lines

Here are some of mine. How many can you identify? Bonus points if you can name the speaker and the situation, in addition to the show.

Feel free to add your own:

“How did you find out about the guy in the park?”

“Four thousand throats may be cut in one night by a running man.”

“And miss the expression on your face?”

“Some people thought he was the sexiest man alive.”

“The word is awry, with an accent on the second syllable.”

“Is everything to scale?”

“It’s a dog-eat-dog world, and I’m wearing Milk-Bone shorts.”

“No Sherman tank is built like that !”

“Stop this criminal act!”

“She makes you look like a dog.”

“I’ll stand at the bar. I shouldn’t wish to attract attention.”

“It ain’t her shoulders that have been poppin’ these buttons.”

“He’s dead, Jim.” (NOT the one you probably think.)

Okay, this one I got.

Paris (played by – wait for it – Leonard Nimoy), on Mission Impossible, speaking to Phelps.

BINGO!!! Ding, ding, ding ding! :smiley:

Here’s a few more:

“Oh, it’s a button! And it says ‘us.’”

“Why do you want to irritate your corn?”

“No, no! Not ‘cow.’ ‘BULL!’”

“We wuz FRAMED!”

The story: I never watched Star Trek nor Mission Impossible as kid during their initial runs, but several years later in college. They were in umpteenth syndicated reruns, shown five days a week, with M.I. coming on immediately after S.T.

We (I and some other hard-core trekkies) watched in the TV room at the dorm. When that scene happened, just picture everyone in the room ROTFLOAO.

So, I wonder how many takes they had to film that scene until the actors could play the whole scene with a straight face.

Norm!

From Cheers.

Kee-rect! :+1:

A few more:

“Hmph. Good thing you don’t keep guns in the house.”

“Eurethra!”

“Boy, leave it to you to take a beautiful thing like drunken sex and make it sound dirty.”

“It might explain why the two of you have created an ersatz homosexual marriage to satisfy your need for intimacy.”

“I need a hacksaw.”

“Anyone who says money can’t buy happiness doesn’t know where to shop.”

As God is My Witness, I thought turkeys could fly

“Number Six is uncooperative!”

Raj’s father on The Big Bang Theory?

The Prisoner!

Of coure that’s “The Big Guy” from WKRP in Cincinatti, the episode where they chucked live turkeys out of a helicopter.

Right show, wrong character. :thinking:

Yes! :+1:

“Shielded by the power of my complete indifference.”

“Eurethra!” is Kelly Bundy.

Yes!!! :+1:

“You can’t kill him! He died 150 years ago!”

After some discussion, this feels like a better fit for Thread Games. So I moved it over.

Star Trek (TOS): Day of the Dove

(I’ve been transported to an alien thread!)

Correct! :+1:
