So Mo Ryan made an off-hand suggestion on Twitter that we spend less time thinking about "Conveyer Belt of Love" (a real show, as Fienberg explains) and more time thinking of the best TV lines of the year.
Thus, a Twitter meme was started, but I figured why let the tweeps have all the fun? So fire away with any and every funny or deep or memorable line from the last year.
It's a free-for-all, so no spoiler protection, folks. If it aired in '09, it's fair game. Read at your own peril.
"Are we having FUN yet?" "Ohh, what happened?"

"Science was my most favorite subject, especially the Old Testament." - Kenneth in 'Kidney Now!'
"I was born ready. I'm Ron F***in' Swanson."
ReplyDeleteI thought the last line of the exchange Kirsten mentioned from BBT was the best and was certainly one of the funniest this year:
ReplyDelete"That's no reason to cry. One cries because one is sad. For example, I cry because others are stupid, and it makes me sad."
Leonard: Now, we all know the plan?
ReplyDeleteHoward: Yes. Koothrapalli's going to wet himself, I'm going to throw up, Sheldon's going to run away, and you're going to die. Shall we synchronize our watches?
Works better with the picture, but still funny out of context (Ron Swanson):
ReplyDelete"I'm a simple man. I like pretty, dark-haired women and breakfast food. But this stock photo I bought at a framing store isn't real. Today I got the real thing. A naked Tammy made me breakfast this morning. I should have taken a picture of it."
And of course "What the ka-bleep were you thinking?"
and the one I really wanted, which ironically won't fit on Twitter
ReplyDeleteSheldon: "It must be an emergency; everyone at the university knows that I eat my breakfast at 8 and move my bowels at 8:20."

ReplyDeleteThis one took on a whole new meaning: "When Tiger Woods feels invincible he wears a red shirt and black pants. Ron wears the same thing after he's had sex."

Sheldon: "I'd like to do the math."
Leonard's Mother: "I'd like that too."

ReplyDeleteIt's not funny, it's not a line, but it was probably the thing that got to me the most this year
ReplyDeleteFrom Grey's Anatomy, of course (by my favorite, Krista Vernoff):
Meredith: Oh great, is this another heart to heart?
Richard: I know you don't like me, and you have every right not to like me, I have abused my power but now I'm here on your turf. What I need to say, what I need to say is, I saw what your mother was doing, I saw how neglected you were, I saw her drive your father off and I spent a lot of time beating myself up about that, but what does that do for you, nothing, nothing. I wasn't your advocate, I didn't fight for you, I never stood up for you. I let myself off the hook, I told myself I was young and I didn't know any better, but I did know better, I wasn't much younger than you are now. I should've fought for you Meredith, like you fought for that child today, I told myself that I wasn't your father, that it wasn't my responsibility, that I was right not to but in, I let myself off the hook. You were helpless, you were a baby. A beautiful, smart, funny, little girl, and no one stood up for you. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
“Look at this... a takeaway and a fight! All I need now is a handjob in a bus shelter and I’ll have the great British night out.”

ReplyDeleteOk, so I probably never should have taken this course to begin with, but I figured it was medieval lit, not advanced evil, how hard could it be? So I skipped intro to evil or whatever, but how is it that I get an F, when this guy that we're reading, Chauncey, can't even spell?

I can't remember if Leverage premiered in December or January but my nomination is:
ReplyDelete"People like that, corporations like that, they have all the money, they have all the power and they use it to make people like you go away. Right now, you're suffering under an enormous weight. We provide...Leverage.."

“People are going to stare. They’re not used to seeing one clown in a car.” – Cam , "Modern Family", as
"Without bosses, we’d be like these worms. Disgusting"

ReplyDeleteCameron as "Fizbo, the Auguste clown":
"I'm the ass kicking clown that will twist you like a balloon animal! I will beat your hed against this bumper till the air bags deploy! So apologize to my boyfriend RIGHT NOW!" "
Classic problem for much of this thread is recency. I belatedly watched all of Rescue Me not two months ago, and damned if I can remember a single line, though there were some good ones amongst the crap.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, my recent favorite is from Sons of Anarchy
I have some serious fungi.
"How would you sit in the Baby Jesus' lap? You'd squish it!" - Jay, Modern Family

And now let's throw down some "Lost":
"Because despite your years of loyal service to this island, you got cancer. You had to watch your own daughter killed in front of you, and your reward for these things was that you were banished. And all of this in the name of a man you've never even met. So the question, Benjamin, isn't if you have to kill Jacob; it's why wouldn't you want to?" - John Locke

ReplyDelete"The doctor said he'll never golf again."--Mad Men
"You're right, Bill: I believe I can sense her emotions."--True Blood
Jeff: Are you staying for the party?
ReplyDeleteAbed: If I stay there can be no party. I must be out there, in the night, staying vigilant. Wherever a party needs to be saved, I'm there. Wherever there are masks, wherever there is tomfoolery and joy, I'm there. But sometimes I'm not cos I'm out in the night staying vigilant, watching. Lurking, running, jumping, hurdling, sleeping, no, i can't sleep, you sleep, I'm awake. I don't sleep, I don't blink. Am I a bird? No. I'm a bat. I am Batman. Or am I?...Yes, I am Batman. Happy Halloween.

And can I just take a moment to nominate this -- even though it's homage -- for best blog entry title of the year?
ReplyDelete" I graduated from the University of Aruba. I wanted to be a big fish in a little pond. I played rugby. And I am proud of my years as a Syphilitic Conquistador. That was the team name. They wanted something the locals found frightening" --Phil on Better Off Ted
ReplyDelete"It’s 1977, right? So Star Wars just came out. And pretty soon, George Lucas is gonna be looking for a sequel. I’ve seen Empire, like, 200 times, so I figured I’d make life easier and send him the script… with a couple improvements." --Hurley on Lost
And I can't recall it exactly, but the Glee line that went something like "I think they're actually friends; Brittany copies off her math tests" where the her in question has Down's Syndrome.

ReplyDeleteKurt:: [about Finn] He's cheating off a girl who thinks the square root of four is rainbows.
Cox: For the record, he was the best that ever came through this dump. [J.D. quietly walks behind him] John Dorian was the first and only doctor I ever met who cared as much as I do. And you can forget about him being just an exceptional physician because the fact of the matter is...he's a damn exceptional person. That's why people gravitated to him. That's why I did. He was my friend.
ReplyDeleteJD: You guys psyched? It's our 8th year! Who's with me?
ReplyDelete(low key) Yay!
JD: Come on. I know it's tempting to just mail it in but there's still a lot of people who rely on us week to week. I think we owe it to them to be as inspired as we were in our first few years.
Now I know we never do great come medical awards season (except for Dr Shaloub. he win's everything).But I still think we're as good as anybody else out there.
Turk: The Nielsens certainly beg to differ.
(Nielsens shake heads in unison)
JD: Oh, they're just upset cause their insurance won't cover a private room.

(thankfully for my fingers, the beginning of Grey's Season 5 was in 2008)

to break for a moment, you make me think that it would be pretty cool if there was an evil character (or supervillain (I'm picturing a hulking, lumbering thing without outstretched arms, but that wouldn't fly in Chuck) named Sepinwall, and people are fleeing, screaming "Sepinwall will Destroy Us!!!!!"
ReplyDeletethat would be funny.
