That was indeed hysterical. Now I’m listening to Scatman John. 
Hey, I remember what I was going to protest! Justin Bieber is not American, unless you guys want to give up the fight that it’s okay to call citizens of the United States American when in fact all citizens of all the Americas are Americans! But that’s probably not important right now…
And now I’m listening to Shakatak…
Sorry, but if you respond to FriarTed’s post, you are required to ask if his mom’s name is Mulva.
Evidently.
Oh yes! The smoking episode is one of the funniest ever. Martin says that he’d have a ciggie and a wagerglass full of Scotch and the cigarette always made him sleepy. Yeh, that’s it. After Bebe describes the act of smoking in orgasmiic terms everyone starts craving them
Nobody has mentioned 3rd Rock from The Sun? Harry & Vicky’s food scene. And, of course, the first scene with The Big Giant Head
The same thing happened to meeeeeeeee!
The latter was referenced in post 74.
Simpsons. Cape Feare. Rakes.
(thwack. Brrrrr…)
No mention of The Goodies episode that killed a man?
Third Rock, when Dick took up smoking.
The first thing that sprang to mind was The Office - the one where Michael burned his foot. I distinctly remember pausing the show to laugh.
My Mr. Bean moment is when he tried to prepare the turkey.
Not only is the *Coupling *Lesbian Spank Inferno description tear-inducing (“I think they really felt quite bad”), the whole episode is gold. Jane arguing that she’s gay and a vegetarian because “I know lots of gay people and we enjoy the same films,” and dragging her therapist to dinner as her date, finally inducing the therapist to lose it and call her an insane bitch is priceless.
(Jack Davenport is just generally brilliant. Many people could make the uncomfortable recounting of a porno at a dinner party funny, but he also holds the record, in my opinion, for best delivery of a hilarious single word line, when he reacts to Jane’s auntie dying.)
The one where Sally simultaneously finds out why Susan called Patrick “Donkey” and also that he’s a raging conservative is great too. “It had better be enormous Patrick!”
My favorite Everybody Loves Raymond scene is when Robert and Amy get caught fooling around and she rushes upstairs wearing only Robert’s pants.
I found it on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKGK2fplV_w
Monty Python’s Fliegender Zirkus - Das Bayerisches Restaurant Stuck Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus (Part 5) - YouTube
Speaking of Turkeys - Joey’s head stuck in one.
The Fawlty Towers scene I mentioned previously the vid is about 5 minutes long, and is all kinds of funny
dunno if anyone has mentioned here, but the British game show Catchphrase. Some 20yrs ago, they had a cartoon puzzle revealing a banana figure doing something naughty with a snake unintentionally and the audience, the contestants, and the host was up in stitches. You can see it in Youtube under Catchphrase, snake charmer.
I crack up everytime they reveal the snake.
QI
The Parthenon bit. They broke Stephen Fry.
In “Blazing Saddles” when the new sheriff (Black) reaches into the front of his pants and says ‘Let me just whip this out for you’ and pulls out a document!
I would have thought that episode was a lot funnier if it hadn’t been a total ripoff of Mr. Bean when he got his watch stuck in the turkey and ended up with it on his head. That made me laugh until I thought I was going to pass out.
Some of us hadn’t seen the mr. Bean bit - I agree that the Mr. Bean is far superior, but there is something special about this one.
