One that hasn't been mentioned yet is from John Boorman's Hope and Glory not so much for use of the word itself but the reaction to it. The protagonist , a ten year old boy living in London during the Blitz, is joining the local gang. One of the prerequisites for membership is to say swearwords.  Our hero says he only

I read this as HEIL BABY and was hoping it was a documentary on the life and work of Lorenzo St. DuBois.

It's as good in its own way as the original. It doesn't have the same impact as the Lubitsch since Brooks knew who won, but Brooks is able to make comments Lubitsch never could. The remake was one of the first films, certainly the first comedy, to talk about the persecution of homosexuals in the Third Reich, through

How many people will it take to write Frost's obituary and how many of them will be credited?

"…but, when I turned around, they were all wearing eyepatches."

I prefer DePalma's older, funnier films. I STILL want a third film to follow "Greetings" and "Hi, Mom" while Messrs. DeNiro and Graham remain among the living. The title, of course, would be "Hey, You".

I would like to be in the parallel universe where Standards and Practices would have allowed dialogue like that.

And the monumental difference between the two shows and the time that had passed: when Jody's boyfriend says "I love you" we hear dead silence with a little nervous laughter from the studio audience, when Ellen's girlfriend (that she got the next season) says "I love you", the studio audience erupts into cheers.

"Now get back there and make those Johns happy!"
Best Brick Joke in the entire series and Graham Linehan  is a Grandmaster of Brick Jokes.

Scrolled down to see if some one else had this idea because to me the Snarkout Boys would work as a TV series where a lot of these could only stretch the story a few episodes. My thought is it could work as either animated or live action and "The Snarkout Boys and the Avacado of Death" could be the pilot episode.

Yeah but with Orson Welles dead, who would play Sunday?

Considering Dortmunder has been played by Robert Redford, George C. Scott, Paul LeMat, Christopher Lambert and Martin Lawrence, you've got a wide range of choice.

Awww, I kind of wanted Muhammad Ali to be a member of the Doctor Who Appreciation Society.
"Float like a Menoptra,
Sting like a Wirrn."

The Tick and The Venture Bros have been confirmed by Word Of God to exist in the same universe.

Thanks, but I'll just wait for the sequel: SHARKANO!
It Doesn't Spew Lava, It Spews Sharks!

Which begs the question: why did they give this program a name which sounds more like a science or history program than the prequel to Inspector Morse? If the sequel is Inspector Lewis,  why  didn't they call this one  Constable Morse?

John Adams wanted us to celebrate on Tuesday anyway.
"The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epocha in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn

As this screencap does not have a caption, may I humbly suggest "Heh, boobies."

Loved the guy dressed as a dog in Bum Rush's shopping cart.
