Scribbles About TV: Best Lines From Shows

A lot of times a lot of jokes and stuff in tv shows can get lost throughout the entire series and things like that... but there are a few hidden gems in the writing world that just stick out to me even years after the show has ended. This is kind of something I want to do a lot in with my writing, so this is something that's important to me. These may not be the exact lines and they aren't the

Will And Grace 
This is what inspired this post. There's an episode where I believe Grace is fighting with her friend Ellen and Karen is trying to stick up for Grace I believe. She insults what Ellen is wearing and:

Ellen: I got this from Ann Taylor Loft!

Karen: And when you walked down the street I bet they all Loft! (meaning laughed.)

I just thought that was so funny. And now of corse whenever I see a Loft or an Ann Taylor Loft I say "and when you walk down the street, they'll all lof" lol. I was with a group of my friends a few weeks ago and one of my friends mentioned that she wanted to loft the bed in her dorm and then my other friend said "and they all loft" and I started dying. It's just this silly little line from a tv show that I had repeated soo many times that now its an inside joke between my friends. And it's such an obscure Will and Grace joke that I don't think many people would get it, but to me it stuck out and its soooo sooo great!

The League 
Anything Rafi does is just so funny and amazing, but in season 5 after the Rafi and Dirty Randy episode, I think he's at his best! He and Kevin are talking because Kevin left Taco money in his will and Taco needed to pay Rafi back, but he couldn't do it until Kevin was dead or Kevin had to give him the money. SO that whole thing is funny to begin with. But then Rafi explains that he's invested in "stocks" including chicken stock, beef stock, vegetable stock and he says that in the apocalypse everyone is going to come for him for soup. And then he says "I'm going to be a Boulien-aire." LOL! Just his face, the delivery of that line in particular and Rafi's behavior through the whole episode are just ON POINT and it was just such a funny line. None of these probably sound funny when I explain them like this, this may have been a less good blog post than I thought... but ohhh well. lol.

Friends 
I could probably keep going on with friends, but I just want to pick one line. It was an episode in season 7 called the one with Phoebe's cookies... idk. But anyway... you know what? This is not going to translate in text... let me find a clip... here. Basically Monica wants Phoebe's grandmother's cookie recipe and Monica bakes a bunch of cookies to try to match it. And Phoebe thinks that she can get it from her relative Nestley Tou-louse... which is Nestle Tollhouse! Lol its just really funny and with the show as a whole 10 seasons... this is a moment that sticks out.

Trueblood 
In one episode Andy Bellfleur says "Jesus Tits and God America." There is nothing that that doesn't offend... but that's funny.

Bob's Burgers 
Louise and Gene are telling Bob all the holidays they like better than Thanksgiving and Louise says "Angela Lansbury's Birthday." First off... this would be funny enough to begin with. What a random holiday! It's like me wanting to celebrate Macklemore's birthday.(One time I had a dream that Macklemore's birthday was a celebration like Thanksgiving.) Anyway Angela Lansbury's birthday just happens to be October 16th... which is also MY BIRTHDAY! And Angela Lansbury is totally my favorite birthday buddy! She's much better than John Mayer! I also thought it was funny that Gene said the season premier of Game of Thrones. Lol.

Anyway I think that is it for right now... I think I'll do more of these, but that's it right now. Check these out if you can find them anywhere.

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
