Funniest Moments From the Show
There are two that come to mind right off the top of my head, although there are definitly many, many funny moments:
--In the episode "A Night in the Emergency Room", the part where Rhoda, with a potentially broken foot, asks Brenda to hand her her purse so she can pay for the x-rays and Brenda realizes that she left Rhoda's purse at home but brought Nick's accordian and she is going on and on about how dumb she was to do that, Rhoda, with a deadpan expression that is priceless says, "Not really, Brenda. You never know when we may get the urge to polka..."I laugh out loud at that one.
--In the episode "Johnny's Solo Flight" the part where Johnny Venture, after wandering around Manhattan all night because he is depressed about an agent signing his back up singers but not him, is spiliing his guts to Rhoda:
Johnny: "And I'll tell you something that I've never told anyone, Rhoda. Johnny Venture is not my real name."
Rhoda: "Well, of course I knew that, Johnny, who could have such a name? So tell me your real name, huh?"
Johnny: "Naw..naw, I can't, you'll laugh..."
Rhoda: "What? Me, laugh? Hey, you're looking at Rhoda Morgenstern here, how could I laugh at anyone's name? So come on, what is it?"
Johnny: "Ok. My real name is Sidney Venture."
Rhoda stifles laughter, "SIDNEY? Your real name is SIDNEY VENTURE?"
I don't know, there was just something really funny about that conversation to me.
Any others?
