The single funniest scene in the show


I couldn't find it on YouTube, but it's the scene from "Enemies" when Marcy and Jefferson go to a soul restaurant and act black to try and fit in.

"Yo there bro! We're new to the hood...what can you recommend?"

"Listen homes...if you insist on dissing your customers in that manner we are just gonna have to ease on down that road. Woooooord."

"Your mama!"

See you in hell, candy boys!

Dan'l Bundy's camp fire tale was *beep* hilarious. Also the Labor Day episode from 1989. That was one of the funniest episodes in my opinion. Season 1-5, hands down AMAZING!

My job is to inform, not persuade- Dan Rather

reply

I could never choose just one!

When the fat lady screams at Al: "You'll be hearing from my attorney!"
Al: "Would that be the law offices of Haagen....and Dazs?!"
Kills me every time! 

Marcy bangs on the front door:
Al: [opens it] "Hiya Marcy. I thought I heard some peckin'!"

Al freaks out when Bud & Gary are caught having sex:
Al: "Monster. In Jammies. In the Basement!"



I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

90% of the hilarity is his delivery. The look on his face and tone is just priceless! My personal favourite is the two part "You better shop around". The opening scene with the 1940's era air conditioner is gold and sets the tone for the entire episode(s).

reply

While they were prospecting for gold and the Zeeks tell Al.....

A Dodge is a da*n fine automobile.....ran over my wife with a Dodge!

and already mentioned but still a FAV...
Did you miss me Al? With every bullet so far!

reply

The beer tax episode is HILARIOUS! After the election, Al doesn't even know or care who won the presidency. He ends with "but who ever you are, read my lips.... DON'T TAX BEER!"

That busts me up every time!

reply

Season 1, episode 13, Al goes to the phone to change his tickets for the 2nd time and before he gets to it mumbles...." Never wanted to get married, I'm married, never wanted to have kids, I got two of them, how the hell did this happen?"

Now, for me, this short line is the tone for the whole series!!



Cute and cuddly boyz!!

reply

Never wanted to get married, I'm married, never wanted to have kids, I got two of them, how the hell did this happen?"

That one is great! It reminds me of another of Al's sarcastic gems that gets to me every time:

Al: "Marriage sucks. Have a kid. Kid sucks. Have another!"

How did I do? I had a meeting with the principal, a three hour meeting, a three hour meeting. You see, Bud, you innocently mixed up Robinson Crusoe with Gilligan's Island. I told them that, but the principal did not believe me. He just said, "Even you, Miss Bundy, are not that stupid."

Ah, but he was wrong, wasn't he Kel?

reply

I think one of my favorite things is at the end of A dump of my own when they show the fountain from the beginning of the show then you hear a toilet flush see the water level drop and hear Al say "now that's a manly flush" sadly it's cut from the syndicated episodes.

reply

There are so many:

Number 1 Favorite is: Al talking to Ray Ray and his boys at the end of Boys in the Hood. The skiing thing and the rest.

Men are building work bench and Peg says: "Wow, you can almost hear the looney tunes theme.

The scene when Kelly is walking home from a bad date and runs into two other bimbos.

Kelly practicing "architecture" in Kelly takes a shot.

Bud is pursuing an old girlfriend for Valentines day. He keeps getting beaten up and was raped by an old fat lady. The whole scene.

Al talking to the stuntman in the bar.

Al questioning Peggy about the box of money buried in the back yard. Peg says: "Then why are you so surprised".

Peg "God I look great. I'm glad I'm not one of those women that need a lot of makeup"
Al "Oh Please, only Tammy Fay, Zsa Zsa and Bozo use more."

Al and Steve in the kitchen testing hair gel.

There are tons more.

If there's a way to screw something up, the "O'Commie regime" will find it EVERY SINGLE TIME!! Only 298 more days.

For me it is when the family goes to vote on the Election day:

Something like this;

"What's your name?"

"Kelly"

"You should be with the K's"

"Ok, thanks"

"What's your name?"

"Bundy"

"Then you should be with the B's"

"Ok, thanks"

"What's Your name?"

"Kelly"

"Oh, but you should be with the K's"

"They don't won't me overthere" and then she goes back to the K's line.

A short time after she goes back to the B's line and the woman says:

"What's your name?"

And Kelly starts to cry and the woman say

"Oh, honey, take ballot, oh what a hell this is Chicago take two".

I really love Kelly scenes, this one is the one of the best with her, in my opionion.

reply

Well if I had to choose my favorite "dumb" scene with Kelly, its when her model school closes and she talks with the statue in the park and then with the gardener and tries to put money in the gardener too.

Usually I dont really like the Flanderization of the character, though.

the smile on Steve's face at the cook-out when he eats the aunt trudy burger. I howl every time.

Al urging his new young employee Aaron to dump his new girlfriend so he can be a single man. Al is convinced he did the right thing until he meets the girlfriend and realized she is the perfect woman.....and then Aaron brings his old girlfriend to meet Al and she is an african american EXACT duplicate of Peggy. When she walked in and sat down next to Peg and started eating bon-bons, I DIED.
