Was that also where Riker tied Toby to a post and whipped him, while Toby insisted his name was Geordi LaForge.

He's been mentioned already upthread, but the (sadly departed) Australian cricket commentator Richie Benaud was the master at this.

Oh man, are you yet resigned to the fact we have less than two months of Dennis Cometti left?

Perhaps through the Commonwealth association, it became an Australianism as well. Not uncommon here to hear people involved in a car accident say they were in a prang, or pranged their car.

"Happy Westerosi Women's Day."

"Well, that's what I heard!"

Not just the police themselves, but the entire department. CSI always had the fanciest technology, but in early episodes of The Wire detectives are still using typewriters, and complaining they were promised computers years ago.

That was Axle Whitehead? I should really read the opening credits.

Springtime for Janeway?

"Again: this is in the first two minutes. (Okay, the Bonestorm ad ends at 2:03, you got me, Sherlock.)"

I can't remember the exact line, but what is it? Something like:

Ooh, I always wanted to do one of these.

The finale gets a lot of grief (a lot of it undeserved, in my opinion), but Baltar's "You know, I know about farming" line is a genuinely moving moment.

They really socked it to that Oliver North guy.  He must work there or something.

I once saw a video where someone was wrist deep in lesbian box, but knee deep seems to be a whole other matter.

@avclub-04d524031f29c89d78cae864bd6f0de7:disqus  Now I want the voice of the 'Police Squad' opening titles to announce these.

@avclub-40904cf5a179d97beb9f7f3f8c02e080:disqus  I always remember the episode when he was moonlighting as the mall Santa, and Kevin outs him to the whole school as some form of petty revenge.

@avclub-5b7e0a1ad5d9ac9ef3063b05f55b6d31:disqus Your rule falls down a bit there.  Millar only wrote Ultimates 1 & 2, both of which I thought were pretty good.  It's the post-death of his son Jeph Loeb that that you've got to watch out for.  He's the one that stunk up Ultimates 3.

I thought the Outer Space Treaty was the one that said no-one was allowed to drop nukes from orbit on to their enemies.

The episode seems slight, but it's an illusion.  I like to think of this episode as a souffle.  Light and fluffy, sure, but a hell of a lot of work goes into making it light and fluffy, and if you get even one small part of it wrong, the whole thing collapses.
