I don’t remember TV show lines nearly as well as I do movie lines but one that sticks out to me was the great cliffhanger in a The Walking Dead:

Rick: “They’re fucking with the wrong people.”

Lots from Seinfeld:

”Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”

”Are you the master of your domain?”

”Yadayadayada”

”No soup for you!”

”They’re real, and they’re spectacular.”

”I don’t have a square to spare.”

”There was shrinkage!”

You can probably choose hundreds from the Simpsons but this is the one that I still use to annoy my Vegan/Vegetarian friends:

"You don't make friends with salad"

The world ends when you’re dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man… and give some back.

Same series, different quote:

(After old Jewish guy shows a kid how to spray paint a "V" on a Visitors poster)

"You understand? For Victory. Go tell your friends!"

I remember bragging in school how great this series was. Man so many shocking nights. Especially the baby giving birth and sticking out the lizard tongue. I remember when Diana ate a rat and everyone in school was talking about it all day.

Exactly.

Seinfeld probably wins by far.

I might be misremembering, but from Family Ties, in the episode when Mallory gets a higher IQ score than Alex, Elyse says something like, "You're a nice boy, Alex", at which point Alex crumples onto the counter in distress.

From STNG

Picard -- Make it so!

My favorite Data quote -- If you prick me, do I not leak.

Plus all the quotes from the original series:

Bones -- Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor, not a ...

Scotty -- I'm giving her all she's got, Captain.

So, so many more.

New Girl

Nick: "We are right where they want us, Jess. Just suckling on the teat of consumerism. That's the exact reason I got rid of my phone."
Winston: "You were denied a cell phone because you have the credit score of a homeless ghost."
Nick: "How I got here doesn't matter!"
Winston: "You weigh more than your credit score."

That "homeless ghost" part had me rolling for a good half-hour.

Another favorite is from an early episode of The Simpsons:

Marge: "Homer, we'd like to talk to you."
Homer: "But then I won't be watching TV. You can see the bind I'm in."
