Legend has it that this is the most erotic line ever uttered on network TV, but I don't think it was really said:
"Ward, I think you were a little rough on the Beaver last night." -- June Cleaver, Leave it to Beaver On the other hand, she did say this: http://www.mortystv.com/media/beaver.asx |
I can't believe no one has said: "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

Last night they aired the episode with the dinner party where Bree says "Rex cries when he ejaculates". My husband was laughing so hard and he was saying that Bree is becoming one of his favorite TV characters of all time. I mentioned that I think that quote is one of the more memorable lines ever uttered on TV. I likened it to "Which one of you bitches is my mother?", said by Phoebe Cates in the Lace mini-series back in the 80's. So it got me thinking, what are some other infamous lines from TV shows? It's summer, the TV forum is pretty slow... Discuss! :D I have however heard of: Do you believe in miracles? Yes! That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall! Ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles! I have a dream... To name a few. |

Me thinks the original poster got his definiton of the word "infamous" from THE THREE AMIGOS.
The actual definition of the word is: "Having an exceedingly bad reputation; notorious" So he's asking for really BAD quotes from TV? Hell, turn on any daytime soap for those. ;) |

I went with truly infamous quote in my first post. Then someone posted the turkey quote and I couldn't resist adding Les Nessman's eyewitness report. |

Hell, turn on any daytime soap for those. ;) Like a line that everyone talks about after the show-- "Did they really say that?" From the moment it is said it immediately creates an impact and is talked about. Not just a line or catchphrase that gets repeated and becomes famous over time. Like I remembered back in the 80's, the line "Which one of you bitches is my mother?" was so over-the-top, and (bitch had rarely been uttered on TV) that it caused such a stir. That one line makes that mini-series more than just a forgotten TV movie, but a blip in the pop culture radar. It was shocking and campy and pretty much established the word "bitch" as an acceptable word in our lexicon. I was comparing the same to the DH quote. It was just so totally out there for network TV. I think it quickly became associated with the whole DH craze and was the scene I often saw repeated in the media and commented on by the general public. I did not realize my choice of words would be controversial. :hscratch: Its summer-- there's not much TV to discuss in this forum. Give me something to moderate. :) And mrpayroll is right -- I'm a woman. :) Can't you tell by the shows I mentioned in the first post? |
