Funny lines from tv shows ....

[Silverlady]

There are lots of funny lines from movies, but there are so many more from tv shows past and present.  If you remember any, fire away!


From the SOPRANOS -Tony Soprano to daughter, Meadow: "The Chinese did not invent spaghetti.  How could people who eat with sticks invent something that you can only eat with a fork".

Al Bundy from MARRIED WITH CHILDREN:  Let's rock."

Homer Simpson from the SIMPSONS:  "Suppose we've chosen the wrong God.  Every time we go to church we're just making HIM madder and madder."

[The Burgomaster]

From a SEINFELD episode (after George Costanza tells Jerry he urinated in the shower at the gym)

GEORGE: "It's not healthy to hold it."

JERRY: "But it's healthy to stand in a pool of someone else's urine?"

[BlackAngel75]

From Alice (remember that):

KISS MY GRITS!!

[retrorussell]

MARRIED WITH CHILDREN
Marcy: Oh, it's too bad some men don't know how to give up their sports gracefully instead of lingering on like big babies.
Al: Yeah, doggone it. If we could only be comfortable with our age like you darn gals. You know, I mean, in the morning you go into the bathroom, a little blush, a little mascara and voila. You got an old woman scared of rain. Then you try and clean and jerk your breasts into a bra, ease some exercise pants over that front and back belly, go down to the market and flirt with the bag boy. I guess what I'm trying to say is it's just pretty pathetic when we guys try to cling to our youth.

Bud: Hey, they're hosting a talent show contest.
Peggy: Yeah, and the first prize is 500 dollars.
Bud: Why don't we enter?
Al: Because we don't have any talent.
Kelly: Dad, what are you talking about? Bud does a solo act every night. Of course, he hasn't gotten an award for it since the Cub Scouts.

Jefferson: So, where's the man who's ready to leave home and go bag some babes?
Al: Right here.
Marcy: Oh please, you couldn't bag your own wife.
Al: No, I could bag her. But it doesn't do me any good. I still remember what she looks like.

Al: Now wait a second Peg, the kids are here. If you want to have sex, they'll have to leave. And if you want it to be good, you'll have to leave.

Al: Ah, Peg. You're down here. Damn. Then I was dreaming you ran off with the dwarf down at the bookstore, and I was living in sin with a Playboy centerfold and her eight friends who could speak but chose not to.

Edward Woodward in an episode of The Equalizer:

Robert McCall: "You have five seconds to give me the name. [pause] Time's up, throw him out of the window!"

From Married with Children, when Bud and Kelly buy a car together:

Kelly:  "You can't touch the car, we don't know where your hands have been."
Bud:  "Well then, you shouldn't be able to sit in the car."

[Trevor]

From the otherwise scary BBC TV series The Omega Factor:

Anne: "How did you get here?"
Tom:" Our friend Graham. Either he's on something or he's auditioning for Night Of The Highland Zombie."

From The Golden Girls:

"Dorothy, anger is a lot like a piece of shredded wheat caught under your dentures. If you leave it there, you get a blister, and you gotta eat Jell-O all week. If you get rid of it, the sore heals, and you feel better." - Sophia
Dorothy: "[pauses] Anger is like a piece of shredded wheat?"
Sophia: "You want poetry, you listen to Neil Diamond. You want good advice, you listen to your mother."

Rose: "Oh darn, I forgot something."
Blanche: "Go in your pajamas!"
Rose: "No, it's not that, I forgot to say my prayers."
Dorothy: "Oh Rose, God wouldn't mind if you skipped a night! He's very busy these days, most of his spare time is spent talking to Pat Robertson."

Blanche: [to Harry] "Sophia's home just burned down."
Harry: [to Sophia] "That's terrible!"
Sophia: 'Not to me. It was a retirement home, and you know what they did? They set off the fire alarm, in a retirement home. Who can rush? Half the people have walkers, the other half can't get out of their chairs. But they've got bells going off like crazy! You know what that does to hearts that only beat a few times a week? It's not pretty!"

Rose: "I'll be fine."
Blanche: "Is this about Arnie?"
Dorothy: "No Blanche, she's upset because they keep changing the taste of Coke."

Dorothy: "I do not snore."
Sophia: "Please, I'll bet less disgusting noises come out of Ernest Borgnine!"
[later]
Dorothy: "Ma, I do not snore."
Sophia: "Please, I had to turn you away from the windows so you wouldn't inhale the drapes!"

Rose: "The name Madonna doesn't really fit her."
Sophia: "Slut! would be better!"
Rose: "Sophia!"
Dorothy: "Oh, please, please! She did things on that stage I never did with my husband!"

Sophia: [after Rose fires her gun and shatters Blanche's vase] "I manage to live 80, 81 years. I survived pneumonia, two operations, a stroke. One night I'll belch and Stable Mabel here will blow my head off!"

Rose: "[The robbers] were probably looking for drugs."
Dorothy: "We have Maalox and estrogen. And how many junkies have gas and hot flashes?"

Dorothy: "Stanley, that's what happened, Stanley. I went to a drive-in with Stanley. He said he was being shipped off to Korea, would probably die, and it would mean so much. That was my part of the war effort. It took three seconds. I wasn't sure that we had done anything, actually, until nine months later when the baby came. Then I figured out that we had. You know, that was my only proof."

Rose: "You know Dorothy, I just thought of something. Lorraine’s family’s gonna be black too, aren’t they?"
Dorothy: "Yes Rose. You know, you could probably make them feel welcome if you do your version of that dance that the Huxtable’s do at the beginning of The Cosby Show."

Dorothy: [to Greta] "Look, race is not even an issue. I mean, your daughter is twice my son's age! What can a woman in her 40's possibly have in common with a boy in his 20's?"
Blanche: "Sex! At 20, a man is at his peak. And a woman in her 40's is also at her peak, so when the two come together, hot damn !"

Blanche: "There's no reason to be embarrassed! Now these are discreet professionals. This is a private matter. Whatever we buy is nobody's business but our own! [picks up a package of condoms off the counter and hands it to the cashier] I'd like a package of these, please."
Dorothy: [grabs another package of condoms and hands it to the cashier] "And I'll take these."
Rose: [looks around nervously, then tentatively grabs a random package of condoms off the counter and hands it to the cashier] "...and I'll take these."
Blanche: "Now, that wasn't so bad, was it?"
Cashier: [speaking into his microphone] "JOE, I NEED A PRICE CHECK ON SOME CONDOMS! THESE THREE LADIES HERE WANT A COUPLE OF BOXES OF THE KING GEORGE PROPHYLACTICS, THE LAMBSKINS AND THE ULTRA-SENSITIVE. TWO OF THEM HAVE THE LAMBSKINS, AND THE BLONDE HAS THE ULTRA-SENSITIVE IN BLACK."

"Shady Pines, Ma!" - Dorothy

Dorothy: "Now look, all this nonsense has to stop, Rose. What we saw was not a UFO."
Rose: "Well, it wasn't a plane. Planes aren't that thin, or that bright."
Dorothy: "Neither is Oprah Winfrey, but that doesn't make her a flying saucer."

Sophia Petrillo: "This is directed to Dorothy's lover: Do people treat you differently because you're a lesbian?"
Blanche Devereaux: "Well, most people don't know."
Sophia Petrillo: "Really? I would've guessed right off. Next question to Dorothy: What kind of pain and embarrassment has this lifestyle caused your mother?"
Dorothy Petrillo-Zbornak: "I really don't know, but... I'll ask her tomorrow when I visit her at... THE HOME."
