** [[ButtMonkey Lutz,]] don't just stand there, go eat something!

* We've already mentioned ''{{QI}}'', but there are some other great panel shows worth talking about:
* Speaking of Mack and Mitchell, their respective appearances on ''TV Heaven Telly Hell''- discussing ''The Indoor League'' and ''Adam Hart-Davies'' respectively.

*** Honestly, any time an actor who normally plays a Ranger plays evil, it's hilarious. See also, Ashley-as-Astronema from ''In Space''.

* Funny/TheX-Files

* Funny/TheXFiles

* Probably highly unintentional example on ''TheXFiles'', but one really wonders how the actors managed to keep straight faces during an exchange in the episode "Per Manum", when Scully is talking to Mulder about sperm donation:
--> '''Mulder''': "At that part, I'm a pro."
** Pretty much the entirety of "Jose Chung's ''From Outer Space''."
*** This troper has to give it to ''"Yep. That's a bleeping dead alien."''
*** "Hey, I didn't spend all those years playing Dungeons and Dragons and not learn a little something about courage."
** Also, pretty much the entirety of "Bad Blood."
** And this exchange from "Clyde Bruckman's final Repose" --
--> '''Clyde Bruckman''': You know, there are worse ways to go, but I can't think of a more undignified way than autoerotic asphyxiation.
--> '''Mulder''': Why are you telling me that?
--> '''Clyde Bruckman''': Look, forget I mentioned it. It's none of my business.
**From ''Dreamland'':
-->Mulder (as a man in black):...Look, your full name is Dana Katherine Scully. Your badge number is... hell, I don't know your badge number. Your mother's name is Margaret, your brother's name is Bill. He's in the Navy and he hates me. Lately you've been having for lunch, I dunno, this six ounce cup of yogurt, plain yogurt into which you stir some bee pollen because your on some kind of bee pollen kick, even though I tell you you're a scientist and you really should know better.
-->Scully: That information could've been gathered by anybody.
-->Mulder: Even that yogurt thing?... That's so you. That's so Scully. The fact that you haven't changed is still somewhat comforting.

**The part with Lee Mack's bluff about a woman giving his dog mouth to mouth on ''Would I Lie To You?''. Especially this bit:
---> '''Lee Mack''': And at that moment, he looked up at me and said -
---> '''David Mitchell''': He said 'now I can speak!' 'This lady has blown her soul into me!' And then the dog got in the car and drove off.
*** On the same show, when David Mitchell learnt that Mike Reid ''had'' performed a ten-minute rap at the recent Conservative Party conference, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoBHLCfpSZA he did not react well]].
**** Although Lee's post-rant comeback may well balance a smaller crown atop the existing.
** Also on ''Would I Lie to You?'', my personal favourite was a deleted scene shown on the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLLvH46QNlY last episode of season 2]], where David Mitchell's third-degree interrogation as to why Russell Howard had never had a discussion with his mother about her "supposed" dancing-career caused Howard to confess that it was obviously all just a blatant lie. Mitchell excitedly asks:
---> '''David Mitchell''': Do I get extra points for capitulation?
** Also, Lee Mack's hilarious response to Michael [=MacIntyre=]'s claim that he once drove a car that could only turn left for a whole month.
--->'''Lee Mack:''' That lie's not just bad, it's so bad that you should just leave, go, get out right now! The exit's just on your right, so you're gonna have to go left, then left, then left, then left....
*** Even funnier when it turned out to be true. In a deleted scene from the end-of-season compilation, Lee Mack said he still didn't believe it, leading to a hilarious argument with David Mitchell.
---->'''Lee Mack:''' Right, my go! (''pretends to read from card'') I used to live on the Moon! Unlikely, but true!
---->'''David Mitchell:''' Do you seriously think that's ''equally'' unlikely!?
---->'''Lee Mack:''' ''Yes!!''
---->'''David Mitchell:''' Well, ''you're an idiot!'' No-one has ever lived on the Moon, cars have been damaged! It's so good, they put it on television!
** Although most of the Mitchell / Mack interplay belongs here (and indeed is one of the highlights of the show), one example in particular belongs here: one of Lee Mack's challenges involved a coconut he claimed fell from a tree and nearly hit him in the head, which he kept for 'anecdotal reasons'. David Mitchell was skeptical, citing the apparent tediousness of said anecdote ("'This is a coconut, it fell of a tree and hit me in the shoulder, but obviously if it had hit me in the head in the right place I might have died' is not as interesting a story as perhaps you think, and may in fact elicit the response 'If only it had.'") The resulting exchange gets quite heated, with Mack at one point threatening to commit coconut-related violence upon Mitchell, which prompts this retort:
--->'''David Mitchell''': No one is insured for that to happen!

* ''TheCloser'': ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D903NtRRoyU Skybox tickets??!?!?!??]]''

** Continuing with ''BostonLegal:'' Alan is punched in the nose defending Tara from a man who can't take no for an answer. His response? He pays off a bunch of "tall people" to start a barbrawl. [[http://fliiby.com/file/631467/5buakm77yt.html Watch the madness here]].

** Continuing with ''BostonLegal:'' Tara is approached by a man named Joe who doesn't quite take no for an answer. Alan, who is much smaller and nowhere near as muscular, stands up to him for Tara, hurling insults as only he could. After a taking a few too many barbs from Alan, Joe punches Alan square in the nose. Alan and Tara walk away, but Alan is nowhere near done. He approaches a group of tall men and, against Tara's protests, pays one of the men $300 to punch Joe, with an extra $100 if he were to go down. The tall man punches Joe, but Joe strikes back. Alan then turns back to the group and tells another man, "Here another $100, go help your friend." He does so, and then Joe's friends get involved, so Alan starts giving $100 bills to the rest of the tall man's friends to help, and we have a full out bar brawl on our hands. As it's going down, Alan watches with an pleased look on his face while Tara can only glare daggers at Alan. [[http://fliiby.com/file/631467/5buakm77yt.html Watch the madness here]].

* ''TheSarahConnorChronicles'' first season finale: [[SarcasticConfession "No. It belongs to the guy I killed and stuffed in the trunk."]]
** "If you call home, he'll find you. He'll kill your parents. He'll kill ''you.'' ....would you like a bedtime story?"
**Cameron + vending machine = pure hilarity.
***Also, Cameron + pool table = absolute ownage ''and'' hilarity.
**"Goodbye, bird. There was a fifty-one percent chance I wouldn't have killed you."
**In "Adam Raised A Cain," Cameron discovers [[BerserkButton Ellison lied to her,]] and somehow manages to sound both completely emotionless '''and'' like a petulant child at the same time.
-->'''Cameron''': Ellison lied to us. I'm going to kill him.
-->'''Sarah''': No, you're not killing anyone.
-->'''Cameron''': But he's the only one I ''want'' to kill.

** When General Hammond tells Jack that they are going to put a Russian officer on SG1:
--> '''Jack:''' Over my dead body.
--> ''*beat*''
--> '''Jack:''' I'm sorry, sir, did I just say that out loud?
* '''Jack''' IN THE MIDDLE OF MY BACKSWING?!
