"...and the Mother Superior says, '$50, same as in town'!" (Night Court)
"...so the bear says, 'You didn't come here to hunt, did you?'" (Homicide: Life on the Street)

Wait so you are saying there is some kind of connection between ben and glory.

I also like the chicken fight on family guy.

Although not a straight up joke in the traditional sense, I always found Mulder's porn addiction on the The X-Files to be quite funny. Especially when it would be randomly put in a scene for no good reason.

"NORM!"

Les Nessman's office "door".

Re: Favorite running joke
 

This was by far my favorite running joke on AD. Which is saying something cause that show had tons of good ones (many mentioned here). But each time someone would casually drop in their chicken impression was hilarious.

Newman!

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Ooooooo...that's a good one!

Re: Favorite running joke
 

And let's not forget his bandages!

Re: Favorite running joke
 

good one!

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Nice call on Nessman. I immediately thought of "Norm!" too.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Thanks for the AD and WKRP reminders everyone! I know it probably won't happen, but I'm still hoping for a complete WKRP on DVD someday.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Maybe not really a joke but something that every one loves to hear when it comes up... VICTORY!!

Futurama, the fact the ask has been replaced by ax

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Or even the absence of it: when they're doing the weigh-in for their Biggest Loser thing and Dwight is stuffing doughnuts into people's mouths saying "you don't have to swallow, just hold it in your mouth." The camera immediately swings to Michael who has apparently missed it. Jim looks at him and asks "Nothing?"


In the same vein of gags, in the series finale of Star Trek TNG when the Future-Geordi comes up to Future-Picard in the vineyard and starts going on about "the plasma thingy is all out of alignment and some sort of silly thing" and they both share a laugh about all the series' techno-babble over the seasons.

The suggestion...or flat out admission, depending on the scene...that Stewie Griffin is Gay.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Another Family Guy nomination: how everyone in the family constantly shits on Meg.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Agent 13 on Get Smart. Always hidden in mailboxes, airport lockers, etc.
The sliding bedroom door on Green Acres
The doorbell on Beverly Hillbillies
Gladys Kravitz seeing something while peeking through the window on Bewitched
The signs on the batcave equipment on Batman
The cannon on F-Troop
Hogan's Heroes-when Schultz walks in to barracks and sees people who aren't supposed to be there, then turns around and leaves without saying anything pretending he didn't see it.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Horatio's sunglasses. That is a joke, right?

Re: Favorite running joke
 

My favorite was nailed by the OP, of course. Love the Garelli bit.

Jimmy's lust for Dave's mom would be #2 on my list of Newsradio running jokes.

I am hoping that the jury duty bit on 30 Rock will be used often enough to make it a running joke.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

do they still do those? Granted i prob haven't watched in a few years, but i know they've done at least 3 or 4.

Re: Favorite running joke
 

Also that owls have replaced rats.

For years on Saturday Night Live, whenever there's a scene in the hallway, there's always a showgirl, a llama, and Abraham Lincoln in the background.

The tradition continued just this past weekend:
