Your Favorite Memorable Line From a TV Show

Thanks to @Styleovertrend for her thread re: favorite lines from a movie.

 

There are some great lines from TV shows as well. One of my favorites is from The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Rhoda says to Mary, as she begins to eat a piece of chocolate, "I don't know why l bother to put this in my mouth. I should just apply it directly to my hips." 

Another classic from the same show is in the very first episode. Mary is applying for a job in the newsroom. Mr. Grant says, "You've got spunk!" Mary smiles. Then he says, "l hate spunk!" She gets the job anyway, and the rest is history...

 

What's your favorite line from a TV show?

Another classic is from Everybody Loves Raymond. Ray is having one of his frequent disagreements with his mother, in front of the family, and she feels unappreciated. She says, "One day you'll turn around and l won't be here." He slowly turns around in a circle, looks at her, and says, "Not today!" Woman LOL

😂 I used to love that show! Lou had so many gut busting one-liners.😁

 

Mine is the Golden Girls episode where Sophia and Blanche are fighting over Fernando, the Cuban " Don Juan".

Blanche comes out in a sexy nightgown and seductively says, "Excuse me, I'm gonna go take a long, hot steamy bath with barely enough water to cover my perky bosoms". Sophia is quick to reply, "You're only gonna go sit in an INCH of water?".😂😂😂

 

Another is when Blanche called Sophia a raisin in sneakers.There were several classics in that episode, but those are the best.😂

 

~~~All we need is LOVE💖
