3From Henry being [[TheChewToy the universe's punching bag]] to June's [[DeadpanSnarker sarcasm and wit]] ([[CharacterizationMarchesOn or in season 1, her]] [[TheDitz ditziness]]) to the many crazy sketches, ''WesternAnimation/KaBlam'' is a pretty hilarious show.

10* In "More Happiness Than Allowed By Law", Henry and June are celebrating their birthdays. June gives Henry a cool remote-controlled car, which he happily accepts, but guess what he got ''her''? Nothing. Hurt and pissed, June snatches the controller out of his hands and drives the car over the edge of the page to its explosive doom (calling it "the [[{{Pun}} KaBlammiest]] present ever"). She then proceeds to screw with him for the remainder of the episode. Henry may be TheWoobie, but watching June seem to take sadistic delight in making his life a living hell is still pretty hilarious. Most notable is the scene where Henry gives her a birthday cake, which is white and has little figurines of a bride and groom on the top... yep, he stole a wedding cake. Henry tries to pass the figurines off as special "June's Birthday" action figures, but she tells him to read the text on the front of the cake, and as he leans in close, she smashes his face into it. She wipes her hands together while making a PsychoticSmirk, then looks at the audience and quips "Hey! '''''[[{{Pun}} Pound cake!]]''''' Get it?" Then she turns the page while licking the icing off her fingers.
11** From the same episode, the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNCVJW0youE choking clip]]. Remember, kids! [[SpoofAesop Only nimrods choke!]]
12* In "Art + Science = Fun," Henry has a horrifically moussed haircut, and June offers to fix it for him. This turns out to be a ''very bad'' idea. Henry's [[SayMyName offscreen reaction]] is the killer (probably the best "Henry-angry-reaction" on the show), but also:
13-->'''Henry:''' Are you sure you know what you're doing?\
14'''June:''' Why do you always ask me that? (as it turns out, for good reason)
15* After Henry quits the show in "Won't Stick To Most Dental Work" because he's fed up with being June's pincushion, June attempts to do her own one-woman musical. She starts out singing a slow piano song leading into a trapeze, only to fly literally face-first into the camera and knock herself out cold. She even comically slides off the lens like a raindrop.
16-->'''June:''' When old Amelia Earheart, brought her plane around. They said "Hey kid, you're dreaming, you'll never leave the ground" but she climbed into that cockpit, and took off anyway, looking in that sky that day, you could almost hear her say.... I'm flying, lighter than air, look at me now, without a care, I'm- OOF!
17* In "What the Astronauts Drink!" Henry and June are in astronaut suits about to go to space. In the beginning, they're still on Earth, and June is just floating in the air like they already are in space.
18-->'''June:''' Hey Henry, have you noticed I lost weight? Like ALL OF IT!
19** Same episode. When they're in the spaceship, Henry mentions that he needs to use the bathroom, so June tells him to do what she did: go in her suit like a real astronaut. Henry then informs her that the suits they're wearing are just cheap Halloween costumes. June looks embarrassed and then runs off [[BlatantLies to go get her toothbrush]].
20--->'''Henry:''' I think June's gone where no cartoon character has gone before: in her pants!\
21'''June:''' I DID NOT!
22* A scene in "The Best of Both Worlds!" involved Henry and June trying to get to the "real world". June attempts to get there by running toward the TV screen and crashes.
23* In "You'll Love Your Selection," Henry and June install a "popularity sensor" that gives a level for how popular everyone on the show is. June gets a six, and after a false start, Henry gets a six as well. When they hit the sensor together their popularity jumps up to a seven, and they gush about [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments how they're even more popular together]]... and how they've got to be the most popular characters around... and then Mr. Foot walks in from offscreen in a bathrobe, reading a newspaper and covered in flies. The meter jumps up to a ''ten.'' Henry and June's reactions are priceless.
24** Later, [[BitingTheHandHumor the network]] forces them to air "A Day in the Life of Mr. Foot," featuring such riveting scenes as Mr. Foot sleeping, eating ice cream, sleeping again, [[BreadEggsMilkSquick punching Henry,]] and playing solitaire. Hilariously, the "audience" eats it up even more.
25--->'''Henry:''' Are you yanking my cartoon chain? You folks actually liked that? ''(popularity sensor explodes)''
26* The scene in "It's Flavorific!" when the kids are trying on various objects as helmets (jars, sheep, ect.). June's second helmet was a piano.
27-->'''June:''' PIANO HEAD! *Throws a huge piano up in the air, and it comes crashing down on her head* (in dumb-sounding voice after getting hit on the head) Oooh, that was not very smart!\
28'''Henry:''' At least June has a hard head!
29* One of the funniest scenes in "A Nut In Every Bite!":
30-->'''Henry:''' June, you can't just go and talk to a cute girl!\
31'''June:''' (sarcastically) Oh, gee, thanks.\
32'''Henry:''' You're welcome.
33* In the episode "Tastes Like Paper", Henry and June are put through hell trying to host the show, due to their new director of research. They finally get fed up, storm to his office, and open the door, only to discover that the director of research is... [[WesternAnimation/ActionLeagueNow His Dishonor, The Mayor]]!
34* "You drop me, YOU DIE."
35* In one episode, Henry and June noticed the TV is on the fritz, so they try to fix it. While at it, June is messing around with it, giving them greenish skin. June acts like she's being mutated by radiation. Then she lowers the volume as Henry was talking. Realizing this, Henry gets angry and yells at June, who raise the volume high, giving him a loud voice. He runs towards her, June steps aside, and Henry rams the TV screen, causing another fritz. June blames him for messing it up.
36* One episode has them showing a "behind-the-scenes" with their stunt doubles jump-spinning and ripped through the comic page.

39[[folder: Life With Loopy]]
40* In "Loopy and the Lost Voice":
41** Loopy loses her voice after playing a loud game, so when she gets a voice lent to her temporarily, she starts speaking in a low and groovy-like voice (think of the Kool-Aid Kid).
42** "Hey Larry, come and play cannibal cheerleader with me!"
43** "V-I-K-I-N-G! Lame-O Larry can't catch me!" Larry then throws a book at Loopy.
44** At the end of the short, Loopy gains more respect for her voice, and Larry is happy about the newfound peace and quiet. This is immediately followed by Loopy starting up a jackhammer while loud rock music plays in the background.

48* "The next time you have a false alarm, pally, why don't you call... somebody... else!"

50
51[[folder: Prometheus and Bob]]
52* Whenever Prometheus gets really angry and starts shouting unintelligibly.
53** Also, whenever you can understand Prometheus's words. In "Better Than a Poke in the Eye", he tells Bob in an annoyed tone, "Get outta the way."
54** In "Resistance is Futile", he yells "IllKillYou" at the monkey.
55** In "E Plurbus [=KaBlam=]!", when Prometheus gets crushed under a boulder, he yells "Get this off of me, now!"
56** In "[=KaFun=]!", he shouts "[[BigOMG Oh, my God]]!" when Bob accidentally takes off with his ship.
57* Anytime there's CameraAbuse.
58* In "It's Flavorific!", Prometheus teaches Bob about clothing, only for Bob to try on Prometheus' clothes.
59** In the same episode, Prometheus teaches Bob about the wheel, but the monkey keeps distracting him. So Prometheus freezes the monkey and Bob rolls him away like a bowling ball before doing the same to the ''entire spaceship''.
60* In "Comics for Tomorrow Today", Prometheus tries to teach Bob music. Bob grabs a mammoth's trunk and blows into it, [[EyePop making its eyes bulge]]. The mammoth then grabs Bob with its trunk and throws him away.
61* In "Not Just For People Anymore", Prometheus and Bob lose their fishing poles, so the former responds by [[RageQuit pulling out a blaster and vaporizing the pond]].
62* The Pottery tape in "Won't Stick to Most Dental Work!" is just one funny moment after another.
63** Bob makes himself dizzy by spinning the pottery wheels and throws up.
64** Bob spins the monkey on the pottery wheel, only for Prometheus to stop the and send the monkey flying offscreen. In retaliation, the monkey ties a long string around the pottery wheel. When Prometheus sees the monkey [[CheshireCatGrin grinning at him]], he puts the clay on the wheel and tells the monkey "shoo, shoo", then the monkey runs away while pulling the string, causing the wheel to spin and splat the clay right in Prometheus and Bob's faces. This makes Bob so angry that he refuses to cooperate and throws the clay behind him, landing in the pottery oven's smokestack causing it to ''explode.''
65* In "Better Than A Poke In the Eye!", Prometheus is about to teach Bob how to use a spear, but starts having second thoughts when Bob shows eagerness to use it. The monkey walks up to Prometheus and shakes its head at him, as if to tell Prometheus not to go through with this lesson. For once, Prometheus agrees with the monkey when Bob starts using a stick like a spear, cutting the tape short. This doubles as awesome, since this is one of the rare occasions that Bob completes a lesson.
66* In "Get Sam Donaldson's Mystery Bag", Prometheus teaches Bob how to farm by using a growth serum. Prometheus grows a tomato plant, which startles Bob so much that stomps on it.
67** The monkey messes with Prometheus by throwing a tomato at him and Bob uses the growth serum to make his feet bigger.
68** The monkey makes a dummy of Prometheus, which scares Bob and inadvertently causes him to squeeze the growth serum bottle onto some plants, '''''CAUSING THEM TO GROW INTO [[ManEatingPlant ANGRY FLY TRAPS!]]'''''
69* In "It's All In The Wrist!", the monkey uses the ladder of the newly-built treehouse as a swing as Bob pushes him on it. The monkey gets off the ladder and lets Bob sit on it, only for Bob to break the ladder. This makes Bob so angry that he [[{{Angrish}} yells]] and pulls on the ladder ''bringing down the entire treehouse!'' [[BreakingTheFourthWall The monkey goes up to the camera and laughs]] while Prometheus is heard yelling at Bob.
70* In "Under New Management", Bob puts the monkey in the evolution chamber. The door opens and the monkey is shown to have turned into a man, leaving Prometheus and Bob [[StunnedSilence completely speechless]]. The man looks at Prometheus and says, "please, give me the dog." Prometheus obliges, then the man adjusts the setting on the chamber and calls both Prometheus and Bob "jerks" before closing the door and turning the dog and himself back to their original selves.
71** Prometheus tries to lure Bob into the chamber using a cooked drumstick as bait. When Bob enters the chamber, he accidentally changes the setting before Prometheus closes the door. Bob exits the chamber looking almost exactly like Prometheus, much to the alien's shock. As Prometheus adjusts the setting, the dog bites his ankle, making him fall into the chamber. Prometheus exits the chamber looking almost exactly like Bob and starts eating the drumstick.
72** Prometheus!Bob tries getting Bob!Prometheus and himself back into the chamber, only for Bob!Prometheus to fall over and Prometheus!Bob is too weak to pick him back up. The monkey shows up, adjusts the chamber to the lowest setting, enters the chamber, and emerges from the behind the door as a floating brain, which beams the alien and the caveman back to their original selves. When Bob sees the brain behind him, he falls over Prometheus in fright and tumbles over with him. The brain lets out a distorted monkey laugh before turning itself back to normal.
73** Prometheus is ready to destroy the evolution chamber with a wooden bat, until the monkey stops him. The monkey gestures Prometheus for the bat, Prometheus gives him the bat, the monkey adjusts the chamber setting, puts the bat into the chamber, takes the bat out of the chamber, now shown to be an ''aluminum'' bat, hands it back to Prometheus, making him even more eager, and ''then'' Prometheus destroys the chamber as Bob cheerfully laughs in glee.
