One Liners From TV
    So, I like to watch the guests with Jay Leno. We all need our resting moments in the evening without serious brain usage, okay?

    Last night, Trump was his guest. No, I don't like him any better now, or know anything new about him. But Jay mentioned that in some unnamed survey, "You're fired" was No. 3 for best known TV lines. "Here's Johnny" was number 1. Further down the list was "Lucy, I'm home!".

    I don't know what else was on the list, but it started me thinking about classic TV lines. I made my own list.

"Shazamm!" Jim Nabors on Gomer Pyle
"Well, doggies." Jed Clampet on Beverly Hillbillies (most people thought he said Wee doggies)
"Wilbur"  the horse to owner on Mr. Ed (use the right inflection and low voice)
"It's me. It's me. It's Ernest T." Ernest on The Andy Griffith Show
"How's that working for ya?" Dr Phil on his own show
"It's all about Raymond" Robert on Everybody Loves Raymond
"Deal of no deal?" Howie Mandel on Deal or No Deal
"What's behind curtain number 3 (or 2 or 1)?" Monty Hall on Let's Make a Deal
so or so, "Come on down!" announcer on The Price Is Right
"You beat everything, you know that?" Andy to Barney on The Andy Griffith Show
"Ehhhh" Fonzi on Happy Days

  I'm sure you can think of more. You know the lines that stick in our minds, that are used in everyday conversation. Or when someone says one of them, out of context, you know immediately where the line originated or who said it. I challenge you to think of one or two of your own.
