History BadassCreed / LiveActionTv

* Series/DoctorWho: From both the novels during the hiatus era and "Girl in the Fireplace".

** The whole of John Pertwee's "Who is the Doctor" spoken word single counts as an ''extended'' Badass Creed for the Doctor.

[[UnstoppableRage KILL! KILL! KILL! KILL! KILL! KILL!]]\\

* The overhead announcement on a ship of Sontaran troops: "Battlestations... Rejoice."

* Parodied on ''Series/HeyDude!'' Mr. Ernst tries to psych Jake up for a fight by telling him to remember the Ernst family motto. "[[HollywoodNerd We like math]]?" Mr. Ernst then tells him it's: "An Ernst never backs down!" To which Jake tells him he's never heard of that one before.

---->"We are the Canadian Borg. Resistance would be impolite. Please wait to be assimilated. Pour l'assimilation en francais, veuillez appuyer sur deux." [[hottip:trans: "For assimilation in French, please press two."]]

* The [[Series/DoctorWho Dalek creed]], from TerryNation fluff:

* Torchwood provides: "Torchwood. Above the Government, beyond the Police."

* "The rich and powerful take what they want. We steal it back for you. Sometimes bad guys make the best good guys. We provide...Series/{{Leverage}}."

* The titular KamenRiderStronger proves just how badass he is every time he shows up on screen with his creed.

* [[StargateSG1 Jaffa rebels]]: "I die free."

[[CompleteMonster Live without conscience!]]\\

* ''Series/{{Babylon 5}}'' brings us The Ranger Oath:

---->"We are the Canadian Borg. Resistance would be impolite. Please wait to be assimilated. Pour l'assimilation en francais, veuillez appuyer sur deux."

The Daleks are supreme! [[GalacticConqueror The Daleks are supreme!]] [[TheSocialDarwinist The Daleks are supreme!]]''

* ''BattlestarGalactica'': "What do we do now, Captain?" Starbuck: "Same thing we always do: fight 'em till we can't."

*** Don't forget the Grey Council "I am Grey. I stand between the candle and the star. We are Grey. We stand between the darkness and the light."

* ''{{Babylon 5}}'' brings us The Ranger Oath:

* ''StarTrek'': Any Klingon, any time, anywhere: "Today is a good day to die."

* "The rich and powerful take what they want. We steal it back for you. Sometimes bad guys make the best good guys. We provide...{{Leverage}}."

** [[TheVirus The Borg]]'s introductory speech, while not exactly BadAss in the traditional sense, is intimidating just in its sheer matter-of-factness:
--->''"We are the Borg. You will be assimilated; resistance is futile. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us."

[[LawfulEvil The Daleks are supreme!]] [[GalacticConqueror The Daleks are supreme!]] [[TheSocialDarwinist The Daleks are supreme!]]''

* ''{{Firefly}}'': Possibly the motto of the Serenity Valley soldiers: "When you can't run, you walk. When you can't walk, you crawl. And when you can't do that, you [[spoiler:find someone to carry you]]."

->''"We are Rangers.\\

-->''"I am First [name of Jem'Hadar First], and I am dead. As of this moment, we are all dead. We go into battle to reclaim our lives. This we do gladly, for we are Jem'Hadar. Remember: Victory is Life!"''

-->''I am Chief Miles Edward O'Brien. I am very much alive and I intend to stay that way.''

-->''"Space... the Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Its five year mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no man has gone before."''

-->''"We are the Borg. You will be assimilated; resistance is futile. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us."
*** And now they've kicked it up a notch in the ExpandedUniverse [[spoiler:"We are the Borg. You will be ''annihilated''. Your biological and technological distinctiveness have become irrelevant. Resistance is futile...but welcome."]]

--> "We are the Canadian Borg. Resistance would be impolite. Please wait to be assimilated. Pour l'assimilation en francais, veuillez appuyer sur deux."
