Let's Play: Name that TV show

CaroGirl · Jul 21, 2006

Here some memorable quotes from a tv show. Guess the show, and then throw in some quotes of your own for someone else to guess.

"I've killed a lot of old people in my time, and I'm not above doing it again."
"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."

alleycat · Jul 21, 2006

The second quote is a classic from Les! But, I don't have time to play so I'll let the next person guess.

dclary · Jul 21, 2006

Well if it's from the same show it's WKRP.

And here's an easy one:

"From here on out, it's gonna be smoooth sailing!"

"I'm not a snitcher; I just tell it like it is. "

Stew21 · Jul 21, 2006

I'm thinking either good times or welcome back, kotter.
(or I could be WAY off)
can I have another hint?

Oh, oh, pick me! That's The Brady Bunch.

Try these (all from same show):

Person 1: "Why does everyone take an instant dislike to me?"
Person 2: "It saves time, Frank."

"That's not my department, sir. Intelligence is something I try to avoid."

LOL... I know that one too, but let's play no tag-backs... someone else guess!

MASH.

Now try: "Levels. I'm gonna redo the whole apartment into levels."

"Parents are conditioned to deal with a few small mishaps when they go away on vacation and leave their children at home. Spilled milk on the carpet. A broken dish....There was a kangaroo in my living room."

"He was only here for the party, dad."

I'll guess Family Ties. Am I right?

its either that or Growing Pains

CaroGirl · Jul 21, 2006

Growing Pains was my first thought, but something about it just screamed Family Ties to me.

Both quality family programs! (can anyone tell that I used to be addicted to tv? I continue to struggle with this affliction, but the 12-step program seems to really be helping)

billythrilly7th · Jul 21, 2006

Family Ties.

Thank you.

You can't slip Alex P. Keaton past the Thrill.

I can't get this one, but am intrigued. Can I have another clue?

MidnightMuse · Jul 21, 2006

Is that Seinfield?

My turn, my turn!!

"You know, America is a great place, but it doesn't have a place where you can get rid of your kids."

"No boy should have a $95 shirt unless he is onstage with his four brothers!"

Empty your bladder of that sweet nectar men call coffee!

Betcha can't get it.

There's a dark side to each and every human soul. We wish we were Obi-Wan Kenobi, and for the most part we are, but there's a little Darth Vader in all of us. Thing is, this ain't no either-or proposition. We're talking about dialectics, the good and the bad merging into us. You can run but you can't hide. My experience? Face the darkness. Stare it down. Own it. As brother Nietzsche said, being human is a complicated gig. So give that ol' dark night of the soul a hug. Howl the eternal yes!

As far as I'm concerned, after 100 years, carrion becomes memorabilia.

Do you wanna die?? Is that what you want?

Reminds me very much of something I might hear on News Radio.

How about this one:

"Madam, I have misplaced my pants"
"I didn't lie, I was writing fiction with my mouth"

Northern Exposure - Chris in the morning for the first quote. Not sure who said the other two.
