89* ''Film/Joker2019'' has the catchphrase of talk show host Murray Franklin: "Good night and always remember, [[Music/FrankSinatra that's life]]." [[spoiler: And the Joker borrows it for a BondOneLiner after killing Murray on live TV.]]

101* ''Series/AmericasFunniestHomeVideos'': Creator/BobSaget started out with "Keep those cameras rolling", but after one episode had Bob giving an impassioned monologue about safety while filming, switched to "Keep those cameras safely rolling," and follow it up with, "Honey...*insert comment to wife here*"[[note]]though the last two episodes of the series did not feature this since [[RealitySubtext his marriage was in the process of falling apart]][[/note]].
102** When John Fugelsang and Daisy Fuentes hosted the show, [[CouchGag they usually change their catchphrase in every episode]].
103** Creator/TomBergeron's was "If you get it on tape, you could get it in cash."

104** SpinOff show ''Series/AmericasFunniestPeople'' had "No funny, no money."
105* ''Series/AmericasMostWanted'': Host John Walsh would end every episode with "Until next time, I'm John Walsh, you've been watching Fox, and remember, you ''can'' make a difference!" to remind the viewers they could help the show's premise to catch dangerous criminals.
106* ''Series/AreYouSmarterThanA5thGrader'': Contestants would be prompted to say "My name is [X], and I am ''not'' smarter than a fifth grader." (Or "''am'' smarter than a fifth grader" if they managed to win the top prize.)

107* ''Series/BargainHunt'': "Join us again soon for some more bargain hunting, yes? YES!" The last "yes" is said by the contestants as they do the kick towards the camera.
108* ''Series/Batman1966''
109-->'''Narrator''': Tune in tomorrow; same bat-time, same bat-channel![[note]]Some episodes had variations, but this is how most episodes end. At the end of part two of the show's two three part episodes, it becomes "Tune in next week!", etc.[[/note]]
110* ''Series/BearInTheBigBlueHouse'' ends with a whole ritual. First, Bear asks Luna (the moon) if she would like to hear him sing the Goodbye Song with him before she goes. She replies something along the lines of "I would love to", then both of them sing this song: "''Hey, this was really fun, we hoped you liked it too. Seems like we've just begun when suddenly we're through. Goodbye, goodbye, good friends, goodbye, 'cause now it's time to go. But hey, I say, well that's OK, 'cause we'll see you very soon, I know (very soon, I know). Goodbye, goodbye, good friends, goodbye, and tomorrow, just like today, the moon, the bear and the big blue house, will be waiting for you to come and play. To come and play. To come and play.''". Then, Bear would say, "Bye now".
111* ''Series/BillNyeTheScienceGuy'' would almost always end an episode in [[BookEnds the same place the episode started]]. He'd also add "Well, that's our show! Thanks for watching! Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go [do some activity related to the episode's subject]. See ya!"
112* ''Series/CandidCamera'': "Don't be surprised if sometime, somewhere, someplace, when you least expect it, someone steps up to you and says... 'Smile, you're on ''Candid Camera''!'" Often preceded by a variant of something like "So whether you're out shopping at the mall, going to the movies, or just relaxing at the cafe after a day at work..."
113* During Charles Osgood's tenure as host from 1994 to 2016 on ''CBS News Sunday Morning'', he would always sign off with "Please join us again next Sunday morning. Until then, I'll see you on the radio.". Once Jane Pauley succeeded him, she instead signs off with "Please join us when our trumpet sounds again next Sunday morning.".
114* Kristen Holt/Kristen Adams on G4's ''Cheat!'' would end every episode with "Until next time I'm Kristen Holt and you've been cheating." When the show was cancelled and demoted to a segment on ''X-Play'' she still ended the segment with the same sign off.
115* ''Series/{{Chockablock}}'': The last words said before the credits roll at the end of each episode are either "Chockabloke checking out" in episodes featuring Fred Harris or "Chockagirl checking out" in episodes featuring Carol Leader.

On Stewart's last-ever episode of the show, he instead closed with, "Here it is, ''my'' moment of zen," with said moment turning out to be Music/BruceSpringsteen and the E Street Band giving the show a DancePartyEnding to "Land of Hope and Dreams" and "Born to Run".
120* ''Creator/DaveAllen At Large'': "Good night, thank you, and may your God go with you."
121* "For now, Creator/DickClark," ''*salute*'' "so long!"
122** On one episode of {{Series/Pyramid}}, celebrity contestant Dick Cavett asked the host ''just'' as he was about to deliver his sign off, "Who are you for now?" which at first just slightly confused him, and then, as he attempted to go forward (the show was ending after all), completely broke him up as the BrickJoke hit him.
123* David Dickinson, presenter of British antiques show Dickinson's Real Deal, signs off with "I'll see you. Don't you be late."
124* ''Series/DixonOfDockGreen'', "Goodnight all".
125* Creator/EllenDeGeneres ends every episode of her talk show with "See you tomorrow. Be kind to one another."

This would be timed so that each logo appeared onscreen as he named them.
130* ''Series/{{Frasier}}'': Frasier had a signature signoff at the end of his radio show: "Goodnight Seattle, and good mental health." When his brother hosted the show, he would ''open'' with the phrase "Let's get better!"
131* ''The George Michael Sports Machine'' has the titular host (no, not [[Music/GeorgeMichael him]]) conclude each episode with "Thank you for making us a part of your weekend."

133* ''Series/GetSetForLife'': The early 2000's Creator/{{CBC}} children's programming block would always end with the hosts saying "And remember: Go out and play and have a blast of a day. See you next time!"
134* ''Good Morning America'': Sam Champion has "...here's what ''you'' can expect this morning."
135* ''Series/GreenAcres'': "This has been a {{Creator/Filmways}} presentation, dahling." (Well, it ''was'' a Gabor.)
136* ''The Groove Tube'' (1974). The news desk satire sketch ended with the line "Good night, and have a pleasant tomorrow." This sign-off was borrowed directly from Tom Snyder's on NBC's "Tomorrow Show."
137* ''Series/HeeHaw'': "So long everybody! We'll see you next week on... 'Hee Haw'!" After the closing credits: "That's it, that's all!"
138* ''Series/HollywoodGameNight'': "If you had half as much fun as I did, well then [[ShapedLikeItself I had TWICE as much fun as you!]] ''[to the band]'' Dean Butterworth and the Scorekeepers, play us out!"
139* ''Series/HowIMetYourMother'' parodied this trope in season 4, when Robin feels threatened for not having one and going into an audition, she creates one at the spot, and it sounds bad:
140-->'''Robin''': From all of us here, at News 10, have a good evening... So good night, New York, and may the road ahead be lit with dreams and tomorrows... which are lit with dreams... also... Stand tall, New York. Trustworthy. Recycling... Wear a condom.
141* "Folks, tomorrow more, but not better, because that's impossible. Here, on ''Series/ElIntermedio''."
142* "''Series/ILoveLucy'' is a [[Creator/DesiluStudios Desilu]] production. Creator/LucilleBall and Desi Arnaz will be back next week at this same time."
143* ''Series/InaiInaiBaa'': "Inai inai....bye bye!" (a pun on the Japanese phrase for "peek-a-boo", "inai inai baa").
144* ''JackDee's Happy Hour'': "[[DeadpanSnarker Let's all go home and think about what happened here tonight.]]"
145* ''Series/JackHorkheimerStarGazer'': "Keep looking up!"
146* ''Series/{{Jeopardy}}'': Creator/AlexTrebek would sign off saying "So long" or "So long, everyone". After his passing in 2020, the last episode he taped (airing in January 2021) ended with a supercut of him saying that over the years.
147* ''[[Series/TheJerrySpringerShow Jerry Springer]]'': "'Til next time, from us all here in Chicago, take care of yourself...and each other."
148* ''Series/JimmyKimmelLive'': "Apologies to Creator/MattDamon, we ran out of time!". This soon led way to a satirical feud with Matt Damon as Creator/JimmyKimmel's SitcomArchNemesis.
149* ''Series/TheJoyOfPainting'': Bob Ross would end every episode with "From all of us here, I want to wish you happy painting and God bless, my friends."
150* ''Creator/JuliaChild'': "Bon Appetit!" is how the famous chef would end every episode of every show and every special.
151* ''Series/JustRollWithIt'': "And that's our show!"/"You guys have been a great audience!"
152* ''Series/KamenRiderExAid'' always ends with the scene cutting out in an OminousVisualGlitch and displaying the message "See you next game." Considering the show is video-game themed, it's likely a ShoutOut to ''Franchise/{{Metroid}}''.
153* ''Series/{{Kidsongs}}'': After the Biggles were introduced, each video ends with them and the kids exchanging "See ya!" before all yelling "Bye!" to the viewer.
154* ''Series/{{Later}}'': During Bob Costas' run as host from 1988 to 1994, he would always sign off with "And we'll see you later."
155** On his final episode aired February 25, 1994, he closes out with: "I'll be seeing you from NBC Sports and NBC News over the next several years, but this is the last time from here. Thank you very much. This time I mean it. See you later."
156* ''Series/LaughIn'':

162* ''Series/TheMaryTylerMooreShow'': Ted would wrap up his newscasts with, "This is Ted Baxter saying goodnight and good news."
163* The original ''Series/TheMickeyMouseClub'', has Mickey do several different ones to end each episode. Here's one example:

165* ''Series/MidnightCaller'': Every episode ended with Jack signing off on his radio show. And every episode of ''that'' ended with "Goodnight, America, wherever you are."
166* ''Series/MisterRogersNeighborhood'' always ended with Mr. Rogers' monologue about being yourself. "You always make each day a special day. You know how-by just your being you! There is no one else in the world quite like you. And people can like you just the way you are. I'll be back next time. Bye bye."
167* ''Series/MonsterGarage'' would usually end with "The Big Schwag" saying "Jesse's got no time for (three things specific to the episode)! He's got metal to burn! And sparks to fly! The next Monster Garage challenge...is just...around...the bend!"
168** The SpinOff ''Monster House'' (no, not the animated movie]]) would end with the narrator saying "Until next time, when who knows? The monster may be coming to your house." (This is less scary than it sounds.)
169* The early Creator/DisneyChannel series ''Mousercise''[[note]]One of the first shows to ever air when the channel debuted as a commercial free premium channel back in 1983. It would continue to run until the channel's relaunch as a basic cable network in 1996.[[/note]]:
170-->'''Kellyn Plasschaert'''[[note]]The show's instructor.[[/note]]: Until next time, keep on mousercising!
171-->'''Mickey Mouse''': You've been mousercised![[note]]He says this right after the credits. This was also done at end of the Mousercise medley on the original Mousercise album (which had been released a year earlier, in 1982).[[/note]]
172* ''Series/MysteryHunters'': Episodes often end with one of the Mystery Hunters saying some variation of "Remember, things aren't always what they seem".
173* ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'': Though it was often used at the beginning to start the movie, at the end of most episodes of the TV's Frank era (seasons 2-6), Dr. Forrester would say, "Push the button, Frank." Then the screen would turn off like an analog TV.
174* Mark Lamarr used to end ''Series/NeverMindTheBuzzcocks'' with the MadLibsCatchphrase "I've been Mark Lamarr, and [song lyric beginning "I", possibly misquoted]":
175-->''I've been Mark Lamarr, and I ain't afraid of no ghosts.\
176I've been Mark Lamarr, and I'm gonna party like it's 1998.\
177I've been Mark Lamarr, but I've never been to me.''

183* ''Series/{{Password}}'': Allen Ludden always ended his versions of the show with a password of the day.
184* While it changed in every episode, [[Creator/PaulReubens Pee-Wee Herman]] would always conclude Series/PeeWeesPlayhouse with one that always ended with the secret word being said one more time[[note]]A few episodes had other characters say the word, though.[[/note]] just before leaving on his scooter.
185* ''Series/ThePeoplesCourt'': At the end of the original 1981-1993 run, Doug Llewellyn would always sign off by saying "If you're in a dispute with another party and you can't seem to work things out, don't take the law into your own hands. Take 'em to court." However, if the show ended with a ruling for the defendant, he would sign off by saying "If someone has filed a lawsuit against you and you are convinced you've done nothing wrong, don't be intimidated. The best policy is to stand up for your rights. Go to court." Doug returned to the show in 2016 but only used his famous sign-off on his first show back.
186* ''The Pet Psychic'': [[http://www.sonyafitzpatrick.com/ Sonya Fitzpatrick]] always reminded us that "Animals are forever."

194* ''Series/TheRedGreenShow'': "On behalf of myself, and Harold, and the whole gang up here at Possum Lodge... Keep your stick on the ice."
195** Individual segments featured this as well. His fireside chat-style speeches to middle-aged men always ended with "Remember, I'm pullin' for ya... we're all in this together." And the Handyman Corner concluded with the reminder that "if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy." Though as time went on he frequently followed up with "Now if you'll excuse me..." and a quip about what he intends to do with his latest creation, just before it usually [[GoneHorriblyWrong goes horribly wrong]] or [[GoneHorriblyRight horribly right]].
196* ''Series/TheRedSkeltonShow'': "Good night, and may God bless."
197* ''Series/RobotWars'' would end with Craig Charles reciting a four-line poem about the episode's events that always ended "...on ''Robot Wars''", after which Charles would salute the camera and say "Bye". Doubles as a MadLibsCatchphrase.

201*** Most subsequent Update hosts have used this.
202** Chevy would also sometimes end with "I'm Chevy Chase... and you're not," although mostly he used this as an opener.
203** Dennis Miller: "That's the news and I -- am -- outta here!" (and then he'd usually either scrawl his signature with a huge flourish or throw the papers off his desk)
204** Kevin Nealon: "I'm Kevin Nealon, and that's news to me."
205** Colin Quinn: "I'm Colin Quinn, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it!"
206** "For Weekend Update, I'm Seth Meyers! Good Night!"
207* On Seasons 40-45 of ''Series/SesameStreet'':
208-->'''Murray''': See you next time on the street! Peace!
209** And before that, starting in 1995, they would end every episode with a bumper called [[OnTheNext "Coming Soon On Sesame Street"]], showing a [[http://youtu.be/CabCy0efIlc?t=13m47s random clip from the next episode to air.]] After the clip was shown, Big Bird would say, "Toodle-loo!" leading to the funding credits. In 1998, this was replaced with the copyright notice, which moved away to the left as Big Bird appeared. This was used up until the end of Season 33 in 2002.
210** And, of course, "''Sesame Street'' was brought to you today by the letter _ and the number _." Until the 2000s, that was usually followed by "''Sesame Street'' is a production of the [[Creator/SesameWorkshop Children's Television Workshop.]]" This would be dropped when CTW was renamed "Sesame Workshop". The Murray quote listed above would follow the "sponsor" ending.
211* Champaign-Urbana's [[http://www.dougquick.com/wciachampaign3.html WCIA Channel 3]] had kiddie show host [[http://redecatur.com/memories-of-sheriff-sid/ Sheriff Sid]] (sometimes called Uncle Sid), who closed each show with advice for young viewers, including "remember those prayers", and then said "Adios, muchachos." ([[https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sheriff-Sid/146396114879 Here's his Facebook page.]])
212* ''Series/SiskelAndEbert'': "Until [next week], the balcony is closed."
213* ''Series/SoulTrain'':
214-->'''Don Cornelius:''' That oughta do it for a while. I hope we can do it again next week on these same stations, and you can bet your last money it's gonna be a stone gas honey. I'm Don Cornelius, and as always in parting, we wish you love...peace...and...\
215'''Dancers:''' SOUL!
216** "Soul Train is a Don Cornelius production in association with... TRIBUNE Entertainment.
217** "This has been a presentation of the Soul Train Television Network in association with", etc.
218* ''Series/SupermarketSweep'': David Ruprecht always closed out each episode with "The next time you're at the checkout counter and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you can have on Supermarket Sweep." Originally said by just Ruprecht, the contestants began joining in by 1992.
219* ''Series/{{Survivor}}'': ''[to the contestants]'' "Grab your torches and head back to camp. Goodnight."
220* ''Series/TalesFromTheDarkside'' "The Darkside is always there, waiting for us to enter...waiting to enter US! Until next time, try to enjoy the DAYLIGHT!"
221* ''Series/TheyThinkItsAllOver'': When Nick Hancock hosted the series, he signed off every episode by thanking the guests and saying, "My name's Nick Hancock, [[TitleDrop they think it's all over,]] [[ShoutOut it is now.]]"
222* The host of ''Series/ThisOldHouse'' and its sister show ''Ask This Old House'' would end each show with every person currently on camera saying their name and the the host saying "For This Old House" or "For Ask This Old House."
223* ''Series/{{Today}}'':
224** The sports blooper segment, "Spanning the World", always ends with the narrator saying something about "see you next time... if there ''is'' a next time".
225** Al Roker ends his segment with "...and here's what's happening in your neck of the woods" -- and it's always followed by weather from the local channel affiliate.
226** Al's predecessor Willard Scott during TheEighties had "Here's what's happening in your world this morning" or some variant of it, also followed by weather from the local NBC affiliate (which itself would be followed by Willard wishing happy birthday to a centenarian, which amazingly still happens today but on an infrequent basis).
227** Most segments end with "With _____, I'm _____ and this is Today on NBC," unless it's the hour or half hour, then it's usually "...But coming up now, your local news."
228* ''Series/TopGear'': Jeremy Clarkson normally signs off with "And on that bombshell, it's time to end." On rare occasions, one of his co-presenters beats him to the punch.
229** SpiritualSuccessor ''Series/TheGrandTour'', legally bound from being ''too'' similar to ''Top Gear'', replaces "bombshell" with "terrible disappointment" but is otherwise the same.
230* Bob Barker on ''Series/TruthOrConsequences'': "...good-bye, hoping all your consequences are happy ones."
231** He accidentally quoted this during an episode of ''The Price Is Right'' but then managed to play with it: "Bob Barker saying, 'Goodbye, and hoping all your... prices are right!'"
232* ''Series/TheTwilightZone1959'': Rod Serling's narration would inevitably - unavoidably - conclude with a mention... of [[TitleDrop the Twilight Zone]].
233* ''Series/TheTwoRonnies'':
234--> '''Ronnie Barker:''' So, it's goodnight from me...\
235'''Ronnie Corbert:''' ...and it's goodnight from him.\
236'''Both:''' Goodnight!
237* ''Series/TwentyTwenty'': "We're in touch, so you be in touch."
238* ''Series/UniversityChallenge'':
239--> '''Creator/JeremyPaxman:''' It's goodbye from (losing team), it's goodbye from (winning team), and it's goodbye from me. Goodbye!"
240* ''Series/WhatsMyLine'': John Daly's "Thank you ladies and gentleman for being with us on ''What's My Line?''"
241* ''Series/WheelOfFortune'':
242-->'''Pat:''' Enjoy your evening, we'll see you next time!\
243'''Vanna:''' Bye bye!
244* ''Series/WhereInTheWorldIsCarmenSandiego'' had two:
245** First, to cue the house band for the credits sequence:
246--->'''Greg:''' ''[to the contestant]'' There's just one more thing I want you to do; you know what it is...\
247'''Contestant and Audience:''' Do it, Rockapella!
248** The Chief would come on later in TheStinger with "This is Lynne Thigpen for ''Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego'', and remember: ''[two-line rhyming slogan for the ACME Detective Agency]''"
249** Its successor ''Series/WhereInTimeIsCarmenSandiego'' went with "At ACME Time Net, history is our job, the future is ''yours''!"
250* The British version of ''Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway'' ended with host Clive Anderson saying the names of the cast and crew, and finishing with, "And this is me, Clive Anderson, saying 'good night'. Good night!"
251** The American version hosted by Drew Carey ended with "Thanks for watching. We'll see you next time."
252* Both the network and syndicated versions of ''Series/WhoWantsToBeAMillionaire'' had their own sign-offs. Regis Philbin and Meredith Vieira would sign off with "From New York, bye for now everyone." When Cedric The Entertainer was the host, he would sign off with "Watch your wallet!". Terry Crews gave a simple "We'll see you next time on Millionaire." Chris Harrison would end the show by saying "For everyone who's been a part of this one, I'm Chris Harrison. We'll see you next time."
253* ''The Creator/WilWheaton Project'': "Until next time-play more games!"
254* Les Nessman of ''Series/WKRPInCincinnati'' eventually ended his news broadcasts with, "This is Les Nessman, saying, 'May the good news be yours.'" (A sign-off borrowed from real-life Miami news anchor Ralph Renick.)
255* Series/XPlay had "Game Over" for a while.
256* ''Series/YoGabbaGabba'':
257-->'''DJ Lance:''' I had a great time today![[note]]In a few episodes he doesn't say this line, while some episodes have DJ Lance saying "I had so much fun today!" In the first season on the other hand, he says "Wow! That was so much fun!"[[/note]]\
258'''Gabba gang:''' (cheering)[[note]]This is added, starting with the second season.[[/note]]\
259'''DJ Lance:''' Thanks for playing with us (today). See you next time!\
260'''Gabba gang:''' Bye![[note]]They said this after the line "See you next time.", while in the first season the Gabba gang do that during the same line.[[/note]]\
261'''DJ Lance:''' Here we go! [[TitleScream YOOOOO Gabba Gabba...]]
262* Tom Kennedy: "It's not what you say that counts, it's what Series/YouDontSay!"
263* Creator/{{Zacherley}} would end shows with "Good night, whatever you are!", in mockery of Jimmy Durante (see below.)
264* Most GameShows end with the announcer doing a spiel identifying the show, the production company and, occasionally, themselves. The phrasing is typically "[name of show/This] has been a [production company] production", though [[Creator/MarkGoodson Goodson-Todman]] shows beginning in 1967 would use "This is [announcer] speaking for [show], a Mark Goodson-Bill Todman production", with the ending changing to "a Mark Goodson television production" in 1982; ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'' still uses that phrasing, but ending with "a Creator/{{FremantleMedia}} production".
265* Every episode of ''Series/{{Llanargollen}}'' ends with Ceri saying "That's how we solved the mystery of the lost/missing X!"
266[[/folder]]
267
268[[folder:Music]]
269* ''Music/BabyMetal'' ends their concerts and press appearances the same way: Su-Metal does the kitsune sign and says "See you", followed by the other girls doing the same.
270* Heavy metal band Music/{{Disturbed}} always ends concerts the same way, with lead singer/frontman David Draiman turning a [[CrowdSong chant]] into a sort of CallAndResponseSong. After which, Draiman will thank the city and promise to return soon, ending with "Peace!"
271-->'''David:''' Say our name with us now! Together, my brothers and sisters, my blood! We are!\
272'''Crowd:''' Disturbed!\
273'''David:''' We are!\
274'''Crowd:''' Disturbed!\
275'''David:''' We are!\
276'''Crowd:''' Disturbed!\
277'''David:''' We all are!\
278'''Crowd:''' DISTURBED!
279* Annette Hanshaw, a [[TheFlapper flapper]] singer from TheRoaringTwenties, always ended her songs with "[[ThatsAllFolks That's all!]]".
280* At the end of almost every Music/TwentyOnePilots show, [[CurtainCall Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun take a bow]], and then Joseph says "We're Twenty One Pilots, and so are you. We'll see you next time, peace!"
281[[/folder]]
282
283[[folder:News]]
284* For many years on ABC's ''Series/TwentyTwenty'', one of the anchors, usually Hugh Downs, ended each broadcast by saying, "We're in touch, so you'll be in touch."
285* ABC's ''Nightline'' ends with something to the effect of, "Watch ''Good Morning America'' tomorrow. They're working while you're sleeping."
286* ABC's often irreverent ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a75A_ZHGwlo World News Now]]'' had "Thanks for staying up with us" -- at least when Aaron Brown and Lisa [=McRee=] weren't laughing too hard.
287** ''World News Now'' made fun of the "More Americans Get Their News From ABC News" slogan (shown over a [[EagleLand bald eagle flying]]), Their sign off was "More [[TheInsomniac Insomniacs]] Get Their News From ABC News" (shown over a closeup of two blinking, very tired eyes).
288* H.R. Baukhage ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSHW1J1IIEU see him here]] talking about working on ''Stars & Stripes'') would growl "Baukhage talking" to lead off.
289* Bill Beutel: "Good night, good luck, and be well." When he signed off for the last time before retiring, the news ticker in Times Square read "Good Luck, be well, Bill Beutel".
290** When he co-anchored with Roger Grimsby, it was Grimsby who used a sign-off: "Hoping your news is good news, I'm Roger Grimsby."
291* Sandra Bookman, WABC-TV weekend evening anchorwoman, has "We're coming back at 11. You should, too." and "Thanks for staying up with us." Her weeknight colleague, Diana Williams, has "We thank you for watching."
292* Norman Brokenshire of CBS said "How do you do, ladies and gentlemen?" When he heard that other announcers were "borrowing" the line, he started going "How do you do, ladies and gentlemen? How DO you DO?"
293* Creator/WalterCronkite would close his CBS News broadcasts with, "And that's the way it is," followed by the date.
294* In Toledo, Ohio, radio station 1370 WSPD had a newscast every weekday at 8:00 a.m. sponsored by Columbia Gas. Each one ended with "This is Don Edwards filing gas company newscast number (insert number here)." The count made it to 16,000 in 1979.
295* Linda Ellerbee's sign-off catch phrase: "And so it goes." A case of a BorrowedCatchphrase, since it originated with Lloyd Dobyns, the anchor of NBC's ''Weekend'', who in turn borrowed it from the "so it goes" ArcWords in ''Literature/SlaughterhouseFive''. Ellerbee later joined Dobyns as co-anchor on the show, so she adopted it as well.
296** When Ellerbee, [[AsHimself as herself]], hosted a (fake) retrospective of Ellen's showbiz career as the final episode of ''Series/{{Ellen}}'' to be produced, she signed off as per usual.
297** In an early episode of ''Series/MurphyBrown'' where Murphy recalled how she first auditioned for "FYI", Murphy claimed that ''she'' had coined the catch phrase "And so it goes", and Ellerbee stole it from her.
298** As host of ''[[Series/NickNewsWithLindaEllerbee Nick News]]'', Ellerbee opted for a different sign-off, ending each edition with, “This is ''Nick News''. If you want to know, ask.”
299* ''CBS News Sunday Morning'' host Charles Osgood always closed with, "I'll see you on the radio," a reference to his weekday "Osgood File" commentaries on Westwood One.
300* Gabriel Heatter didn't seem to have a standard closing remark, but always started with "There's good news tonight!"
301* ''The Huntley-Brinkley Report'' always closed with David Brinkley's "Good night, Chet." Followed by Chet Huntley's "Good night, David. And good night, for NBC News."
302* Bill Jorgensen, who anchored WNEW-TV's "Ten O'Clock News" between 1967 and 1979, ended his broadcasts with this tongue-twister: "I'm Bill Jorgensen, thanking you for your time this time 'till next time."
303* Edward R. Murrow ended his CBS News broadcasts with "Good night, and good luck" (hence the title of the 2005 [[Film/GoodNightAndGoodLuck biopic]] starring Creator/DavidStrathairn and Creator/GeorgeClooney).
304** Creator/KeithOlbermann paid homage by using the phrase on ''Series/CountdownWithKeithOlbermann'', particularly after his Special Comments. On his ''Countdown'' podcast (est. 2022), he says "good morning, good afternoon, good night, and good luck" (knowing you might hear it at any time, although he usually puts them out just after midnight eastern time). When he closed on a lighthearted note, he wadded up a piece of paper and [[CameraAbuse hurled it at the camera, "smashing" it]]. He also did this on his 2013 ESPN2 show.
305* Over on NBC, Earl Godwin closed off his news broadcast with "God bless you, one and all."
306* On public television's ''Nightly Business Report'', co-anchor Paul Kangas always signed off each broadcast he co-anchored with "I'm Paul Kangas in Miami wishing all of ''you'' the best of good buys!", a pun on good-byes, during which Kangas would also give off a trademark salute.
307* On September 1, 1986, Dan Rather started using the sign-off "Courage" on the Creator/{{CBS}} Evening News. Responding to negative public reaction (and the pleas of his staff), he stopped using it on September 8. In defiance at having been basically forced to resign from the show in the aftermath of Rathergate,[[labelnote:explanation]]On September 8, 2004, CBS' ''60 Minutes'' began airing a series of reports on George W. Bush's National Guard service record. They were based on some memos supposedly in the files of Lt. Col. Jerry B. Killian, and provided by Texas Army National Guard [=LtCol=] Bill Burkett to 60 Minutes producer Mary Mapes. The memos, purporting to date from 1973, portrayed Bush as insubordinate and cowardly while in the Guard. Insufficient research and confirmation had been done ahead of time, and the memos were soon proved to be forgeries. Rather defended the memos on the air, believing the content was accurate even if the memos were faked. Four people lost their jobs at CBS, and Rather resigned. Rather had had little to do with the acceptance of the memos and the ''60 Minutes'' broadcast, which is more like Mapesgate.[[/labelnote]] he reused it for his final broadcast in 2004
308** ''ComicStrip/BloomCounty'' had fun with the initial brouhaha in [[https://www.gocomics.com/bloomcounty/1986/10/25 this 1986 strip]].
309* Lloyd Robertson of Creator/{{CTV}} ended broadcasts with "And that's the kind of day it's been," also followed by the date.
310* Louis Rukeyser would close every episode of ''Wall $treet Week'' with a gentle and warm wink at the camera before wishing the viewers a good night.
311* Lowell Thomas always said, "And so long, until tomorrow!"
312* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RS3MsxWFWY Walter Winchell always began]], "Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. North and South America and all the ships at sea! Let's go to press!" and ended with "And so, with lotions of love [[note]]His sponsor was Jergens, which still makes a full line of creams and moisturizers.[[/note]] this is your New York correspondent, Walter Winchell, who knows that all the lights on Broadway are never as bright as the candle in the window when you come home!" When he was in Florida, he would say "Miami Beach" instead of New York.
313* Most broadcasts of the Philippine evening newscast ''TV Patrol'' ends with one of the anchors (Mostly Ted Failon or Noli De Castro) saying "Maraming Salamat at Magandang gabi, Bayan!" [[note]] Thank you and Good night, Nation! [[/note]] In recent times, this is after the last talks between the anchors related to the last report of that episode.
314* During UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, news broadcasts kind of suspended the greetings/signoff thing as the news roundup came into being and reporters in key hotspots just gave matter-of-fact accounts of what they saw and heard. CBS' Roger Mudd has more about this in his book ''The Place To Be''.
315* During the UsefulNotes/Covid19Pandemic, ''CBS Evening News'' anchor Norah O'Donnell briefly adopted "Stay positive, and test negative."
316* Lester Holt closes the ''NBC Nightly News'' with "Please take care of yourself... and each other."
317[[/folder]]
318
319[[folder:Podcasts]]
320* ''Podcast/BehindTheBastards'':
321** The host, Robert Evans, has used a couple over the years the show has run. In older episodes he used "I statistically love about 40% of you," and variations there upon. Newer episodes has him using "Go to hell! I love you!"
322** Sophie, the producer, usually does a drawn-out "Byeeeee!", especially on episodes where [[CloudcuckoolandersMinder she chimes in an attempt try to keep Robert under control]].
323* The Blimey Cow Podcast always ends with Jordyn telling the audience "Don't be messy". Occasionally, however, they will roll outtakes after the fact.
324* Jesse Thorn of ''[[https://maximumfun.org/podcasts/bullseye-with-jesse-thorn/ Bullseye]]'' goes meta with: "And remember, all great radio hosts have a signature sign-off" as his signature sign-off.
325* Brian Phelps, host of ''Podcast/TheBrianAndJillShow'' signs off episodes with "Be good humans." He did the same thing on the radio in the ''Mark & Brian Radio Program.''
326* At the end of every episode of ''Podcast/TheFantasticast'', there's a sound byte of Creator/StanLee saying "'Nuff Said".
327* ''Creator/HeyJakeAndJosh'':
328** "This has been the ''Podcast/CoolKidsTable'', and you can sit with us."
329** Both ''Podcast/PokemonWorldTourUnited'' and ''Pokemon World Tour'' end with "Smell ya later!"
330** ''The Morphin' Grid'' ends with "May the Power protect you!"
331** ''Podcast/KingdomSmarts'' has Jake and Shannon alternate between "I've been Jake", "and I've been Shannon", "and that's been ''Kingdom Hearts''", after which Shannon does a CouchGag of "We haven't gotten to the part where ___ yet" to tease the next episode.
332--->'''Shannon:''' We haven't gotten to the part where someone legit calls you a 'chicken-wuss'.
333* Every episode of ''Desert Island Literature/{{Discworld}}'' ends with Al Kennedy saying "We'll be back next week with another castaway and another book. Until then, remember: The turtle moves." In the season finales, "next week" is replaced by "in the new year" or "later in the year".
334* ''Podcast/TheHiddenAlmanac'':
335** For the first few years, Reverend Mord's sign-off was "Be safe, and stay out of trouble." From November 2016, "Be safe, and remember: You are not alone" became increasingly common, and is now the usual sign-off.
336** Pastor Drom, Mord's more peppy colleague, uses "Be safe, and have a nice day!" when she subs as host.
337* ''Podcast/TheLastPodcastOnTheLeft'':
338** The hosts offer different farewells at the end of every episode. Ben Kissel encourages people to "Hail themselves" and/or wishes them "Megustalations". Marcus Parks says "Hail, Gein." while Henry Zebrowski gives an enthusastic "Hail Satan!"
339** Side Stories episodes feature Henry using the words "Live", "Laugh", and "Love" in various ways. Some straightforward, some convoluted, but all encouraging people to do those three things.
340* ''Podcast/TheMagnusArchives'':
341** "End recording."
342** And briefly during S2: "End supplemental."
343* "This has been ''Podcast/MyBrotherMyBrotherAndMe''. Kiss your dad square on the lips."
344* ''Podcast/MyFavoriteMurder'': "Stay sexy, and don't get murdered."
345* Marc Evan Jackson signs off every episode of ''The Good Place The Podcast'' with "Now go do something ''good''."
346* ''Podcast/TheScathingAtheist'' and its multiple spinoff shows have some unique ones. At the end of headlines, Heath is prone to shouting the names of games. This started with "Jumanji!", usually, and then moved on to "Boggle!" or "Scrabble!"
347* Each episode of [[WebVideo/SciShow [=SciShow=] Tangents]] ends with host Hank Green asking listeners to help the show by becoming Patreons, leaving reviews, or "just (''whole cast chimes in'') '''tell people about us!'''" After the credits, Hank signs off individually with, "Remember, the mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be lighted!"
348* At the end of the second episode of ''Shelfdust Presents: The War Effort'', the Al Kennedy-hosted podcast about ''Comicbook/SecretWars1984'', one of the guests says "Until next time, keep it secret!" and Al says he wishes he'd thought of that. He uses it in every subsequent episode.
349* The TrueCrime podcast ''Podcast/SickSadWorld'': "Don't be a murderer."
350* ''Podcast/TalkinToonsWithRobPaulsen''
351--> '''Rob:''' "Laughter is the best medicine and the cool thing is, you can't OD and the refills are free."
352* For ''[=THAC0=]'s Hammer'' (the AD&D 2nd Edition podcast) the co-hosts say their good-byes and ends with "...and I'm DM Glen and we'll see you next time when the hammer comes down on [=THAC0=]'s Hammer! (hits desk). Bye bye!"
353* ''Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale'': Cecil ends almost every episode with "Good night, Night Vale, good night."
354* At the end of an episode of ''Podcast/WereYouRaisedByWolves'', before TheStinger or Patreon ad, Nick and Leah will thank each other and then say bye to the audience, signifying the official end of a given episode.
355[[/folder]]
356
357[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
358Some pro wrestlers do this at the end of their promos. Examples:
359* Wrestling/HulkHogan: Whatcha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on YOU? (among ''many'' variations)
360* Wrestling/RandySavage: [[BigYes OH YEAH!]] (Dig it!)
361* "If you SMELL....what [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson The Rock]] is cookin'!"

368-->"Just when they think they've got all the answers, I change the questions!"
369* Wrestling/EnzoAndCass: "There is only ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE YOU, AND I'M GONNA SPELL! IT! OUT! FOR YA! S-A-W-F-T! SAWFT!"

375* Wrestling/KennyOmega: "Goodbye... ''(kisses his fingers, then points them gun-style)'' "...and good night. Bang!"
376* Anyone who says Wrestling/TheUndertaker has no signing-off catchphrase will... ''(beat)'' "Rest... in... peace!"
377[[/folder]]
378
379[[folder:Puppet Shows]]
380* ''Series/TheMuppetShow'': "...we'll see you next time on the Muppet Show!"
381* ''Series/SesameStreet'':
382** Originally: "''Sesame Street'' has been [[BroughtToYouByTheLetterS brought to you by the letter [insert letter here]]], and the number [insert number here]. ''Sesame Street'' is a production of the Children's Television Workshop." The latter was removed after CTW was renamed to Sesame Workshop.
383** Seasons 40-46:
384-->'''Murray''': "See you next time on the street! Peace!"
385** Since Season 46: "...we'll see you next time on... Sesame Street!"
386[[/folder]]

396'''Gracie:''' Good night.
397* ''Radio/CarTalk'':

401* ''Radio/DimensionX'': "You have just heard another adventure into the unknown world of the future, the world of... ''[[PowerEchoes Dimension X!... X!... X!...]]''" After saying this catchphrase, the narrator would announce [[FindOutNextTime what the next episode would be]] and the ClosingCredits.
402* Pastor J.C. Dove used to thunder "It '''DOES''' make a difference what you believe!!!" at signoff. Rev. Dove, whose show originated at WHOW in Clinton, Illinois, was still active in 1980.
403* ''Creator/DrDemento'' has "Don't forget to stay demented!"
404* The Creator/DrLaura radio show ended with "Now, go take on the day." Later on it became "Now, go do the right thing."
405* Creator/JimmyDurante signed off his eponymous radio (and later TV) show with "Good night, Mrs. Calabash, wherever you are."[[note]]Durante eventually revealed that the phrase was a tribute to his first wife, Jean; while driving across the country they had stopped in Calabash, North Carolina and she had been delighted by the town's name.[[/note]]
406* ''Radio/FibberMcGeeAndMolly'' always ended with Molly's cheerful "Goodnight, all."
407* Creator/PaulHarvey had his "Paul Harvey… Good day!" for ''Paul Harvey's News and Comment'', and "And ''now'' you know… [[TitleDrop the]] ''[[TitleDrop rest]]'' [[TitleDrop of the story!]]" for ''The Rest of the Story''.
408* ''Radio/HeartsOfSpace'': Stephen Hill and Anna Turner's landmark New Age music program ([[http://www.hos.com link]]), founded in 1973, has ended since February 1990 with Stephen's gentle "Safe journey, space fans... wherever you are." This reassuring signoff may have come from the fact that many early listeners were (and some probably still are) [[EruditeStoner mind trippers]], using the broadcast to accompany [[HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs contemplative LSD sessions]].
409* ''Radio/ImSorryIHaventAClue'':
410** In the earliest years, the sign-off would usually be some joke about Humph looking at his watch:
411-->'''Humph''': Well, with Goofy's tail pointing up and Mickey Mouse's hand pointing down, I realise my Rolex is a fake... and that we've reached the end of the show.
412** The later years would utilize a Signing Off MadLibsCatchPhrase which goes something like "And so as the <noun> of <[[MeaninglessMeaningfulWords meaniningless meaningful word]]> <adjectives> the <noun> of <meaningless meaningful word> and <either the same pattern again or some sort of pun on the first clause>, I notice it's the end of the show. So from the teams, myself, and the good people of <town>, goodbye." For example:
413-->'''Humph''': And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of Time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of Destiny, and the flatulent skunk of Fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of Eternity...
414* ''Radio/InnerSanctumMysteries'' had a chilling one. After a well-acted story loaded with NightmareFuel, the pleasant voice of your host, Raymond, would intone:
415--> "Good night. Pleasant dreams, hmm?"\
416 [SFX: [[DoorClosesEnding CREAKING MAUSOLEUM DOOR SLOWLY CLOSING]]]
417* Creator/GarrisonKeillor:
418** His ''Writers' Almanac'' segments end with, "Be well... do good work... and keep in touch."
419** His "News from Lake Wobegon" monologue on ''Radio/APrairieHomeCompanion'' always ends with, "That's the news from Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average."
420* ''Radio/OverTheEdge'': Sound collage master Creator/DonJoyce of Music/{{Negativland}} hosted the totally insane culture jam ([[https://archive.org/details/ote many of his shows preserved at archive.org]]) every week on KPFA for over thirty years before his untimely death in 2015. He always led off with Vangelis' ''Heaven and Hell''[[note]]a ShoutOut to the days when ''Over the Edge'' was preceded by the floating tranquility of ''Music from the Hearts of Space'', whose host Stephen Hill used to warn listeners about what they were in for if they left the radio on.[[/note]] and conclude with a woman's voice reciting "To create is divine, to reproduce is human. - [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_Ray Man Ray]]." The current hosts, Jon "Wobbly" Leidecker and Robert "K-Rob" Cole, still use these.
421* ''Radio/QuietPlease1947'': "And so, until next week at this same time, I am quietly yours, Ernest Chappell."

423* ''Radio/TheShadow'': "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit. Crime does not pay. The Shadow knows!" Which was usually followed by one last EvilLaugh.
424* Creator/JeanShepherd (of ''Film/AChristmasStory'' fame) would sign off his '70s show on New York's WOR with, "Remember, kiddies: [[UsefulNotes/{{Baseball}} keep your knees loose and your glove well-oiled]]."
425* ''Radio/ThatGoshDarnHippieShow'': "Have a groovy weekend", regardless of when the show actually airs.
426* ''Radio/ThisAmericanLife'' always ends with a quote from some part of that week's show, taken out of context and humorously attributed to creator Torey Malatia. The only time they didn't do this was when they reported on [[https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2012/03/the-sad-and-infuriating-mike-daisey-case/254661/ Mike Daisey's faked anecdotes]] in [[https://archive.org/details/ThisAmericanLife454Mr.DaiseyAndTheAppleFactory his story about Chinese Foxconn workers]].[[note]]Daisey did go to China, and the facts he relates about Foxconn workers are true. However, his ''own'' story, about what ''he'' did there, what he saw and what was said to him, was almost totally fabricated.[[/note]]
427-->'''Ira.''' WBEZ management oversight for our program by our boss, Mr. Torey Malatia. And I think this is a week I am just not in the mood for an extra quote here from Torey.
428* Rev. J. Vernon [=McGee=], whose ''Radio/ThroughTheBible'' program ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlB-y2Lzd5E link]]) still runs through a five-year cycle to explore the entire Bible, verse by verse, closed off with "May God richly bless you, my beloved," a paraphrase of Psalm 115:14.
429* ''Radio/TheUnbelievableTruth'': He stopped it at some point, but [[Creator/DavidMitchellActor David Mitchell]], after thanking the panel, used to say "They were unbelievably good, and that's ''[[FinaleTitleDrop The Unbelievable Truth]]''!"
430* ''Radio/WaitWaitDontTellMe'' ends with funny predictions from the panel, after which is the regular sign-off from announcer Bill Kurtis followed by host Peter Sagal thanking the panel by name and telling listeners to come back next week.
431-->'''Bill:''' And if any of that happens, panel, we'll ask you about it on ''Wait Wait Don't Tell Me''!
432* ''Radio/WhenRadioWas'' is a classic radio show anthology series hosted by Greg Bell. Bell's sign off on every episode is "Until next time...I bid you farewell."
433* ''Radio/XMinusOne'': Early episodes would end their FindOutNextTime segments by calling out the show's title; "[[PunctuatedForEmphasis X! MINUS! ONE!]]".
434* The ''Archive Feature'' that ran on BBC Radio 4 from 1961 to 1987 always ended with the presenter, John Ebdon, giving a somewhat SelfDeprecating "If you have been, thanks for listening."

440* Harry Caray, the much-loved Chicago Cubs broadcaster, gave the totals, then often said "Well, win or lose, I'm a Cub fan and a Bud man, and I hope you are too." And "See you later -- so long, everybody!"
441* Chuck Thompson, an announcer with the Baltimore Orioles and Baltimore Colts in the '60s and '70s, would sign off after those teams' victories with "Ain't the beer cold!"
442* Another inversion of an announcer always opening a broadcast with a catchphrase is Brent Musburger's "You are looking live at [''venue''] in [''city'']." He claims he started doing this partly as a way to tip off gamblers about game time weather conditions at stadiums, so they could take them into account as they placed their final bets.
443[[/folder]]
444
445[[folder:Video Games]]
446* ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' games usually end with a huge setup to have the protagonist yell ''Objection!'' one more time. The most common (but far from the only) setup consists of the main characters making plans to hang out and expecting the protagonist to pay for everyone.
447* ''VideoGame/Borderlands3'' has Tyreen Calypso, the livestreamer-turned-Siren cult leader, who ends each "livescream" with "[[PleaseSubscribeToOurChannel Don't forget to like, follow, and obey!]]"

452-->'''Tatiana:''' ''Order''. Order leads to progress in Vinyl City. That is all. Have a pleasant evening.
453* ''VideoGame/NoUmbrellasAllowed'':
454** At the end of each day, HUE says something such as feeling tired, his back aching, or needing a bath ([[RidiculouslyHumanRobot despite being a robot]]), which changes at the start of every week. He then advises you to go home quickly, [[VerbalTic toodle-oo!]]
455** Actor Yeongmi Mo always says this after visiting your shop:

458* Jane Valderama, in ''VideoGame/SaintsRowTheThird'', signs off on every broadcast after a story mission with "This is Jane Valderama, with your [[MadLibsCatchphrase Steelport [X][==]]]."
459* ''Franchise/{{Splatoon}}''
460** ''VideoGame/Splatoon1'': Pictured above, the Squid Sisters, Callie and Marie, always end their Inkopolis News broadcasts thusly:
461---> '''Callie:''' Until next time...\
462'''Both:''' Staaaay fresh!
463** ''VideoGame/Splatoon2'': In this game, Inkopolis News is now hosted by Pearl and Marina of pop idol duo Off the Hook, who end their broadcasts like this:
464---> '''Pearl:''' Until next time...\
465'''Both:''' Don't get cooked...stay off the hook!
466** ''VideoGame/Splatoon3'': Keeping with tradition, Shiver, Frye, and Big Man, the three members of Deep Cut, end their Anarchy Splatcast as such:
467---> '''Shiver:''' From Splatsville, that's a wrap.\
468'''All:''' Catch ya later!
469* ''VideoGame/TwistedMetal'': Calypso ends every story (and every time the player ends the game) with "I am Calypso, and I thank you for playing Twisted Metal!" This continues until the fourth game, where Sweet Tooth usurps Calypso’s role, and the rest of the games in the series sort of forget about it after that.
470* ''Videogame/WeHappyFew:'' Uncle Jack has "I'm afraid we've come to the end of our time" for the end of a good deal of his broadcasts. [[spoiler:It takes an appropriately apocalyptic turn during his final broadcast, where the Joy stops working, he remembers ''everything'', and he realizes Wellington Wells itself has truly come to the end of its time due to the fact that no one is making any food]].
471[[/folder]]
472
473[[folder:Web Animation]]
474* In-universe, ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner'' says at the end of every episode of his show "The Show", "CHANT! WORDS! TOGETHER!"
475* Red from ''WebAnimation/OverlySarcasticProductions'' tends to end her videos with "So... yeah."
476* In ''WebAnimation/StarTrekLogicalThinking'', Spock says, "It's only logical" at the end, which is usually preceded by, "Even if an argument seems to make sense, it cannot be valid unless the form is valid, and it does not exhibit one of the logical fallacies such as [insert fallacy here]."
477* ''WebAnimation/{{Recreyo}}'' tend to end their videos with "RECREYO OUT".

I love you like I play cousin. I'm outie 5000! [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Chain Chomp!]] [[EatTheCamera Whomp!]] ''(put his hand on the camera)''" At one point, he tried to remove the "Chain Chomp" part, but eventually did it again after the fans said they missed it.
488** "I'm outie 5000!" even went to be referenced in ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012''. Even though he did not invent this catchphrase, Andre is a big fan of the show.
489* Creator/AnnaAkana ends several of her videos with, "Stay awesome, [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Gotham]]."
490** Copyright issues with Creator/DCComics made her temporarily change it to, "I'm Anna Akana. You stay awesome."
491** After her cameo in Franchise/{{Marvel| Cinematic Universe}}'s ''Film/AntMan1'', Anna remarked that she might have to change her catchphrase to something Marvel-related. On the spot, she came up with, "I'm Anna-Man. Stay [[{{Pun}} Marvelous]]", which didn't stick.

499* ''The Brony Notion'': Zigzagged. Usually, the narrator will say, "This is the Brony Notion signing off until next time. Brohoof!", but other times he will say a variation or put something else afterwards.
500* In the earlier days of Caddicarus, Caddy had the signing off phrase 'And if it's your birthday today, then happy frickin' birthday to you...and please remember to stay beautiful'

522* WebVideo/StuartAshen himself doesn't have one, but when he encounters the phrase "Stay Fresh Cheese Bags", he notes that sounds like something an Eighties children's TV mascot would use as one.

554* "Next time on WebVideo/GameGrumps!" At first, this was followed by a joke "AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent" ToBeContinued, but this was eventually shortened to this. Now, Dan often has to say to Arin that "it's time for "next time on WebVideo/GameGrumps"" when the latter is lost in his "JustOneMoreTurn" madness.
555* "Thank you guys for watching, and of course stay tuned on WebVideo/GameXplain for more on [the subject of the video] and other things gaming too. Until next time, bye!"

679* Before 24 hour TV and radio stations became commonplace (and still used if a station needs goes off the air for something like maintenance), most stations would say something to the effect of "Thank you for watching, and have a good night" or "[insert call sign here] now ends our broadcast day, to return to the air tomorrow morning at [time]" shortly before shutting down for the night. They were legally required to give the name of the company that owned the station, plus the broadcast site, frequency, wattage and location of transmitter and antenna. There was often a Sermonette or brief prayer or reflection after that, leading into a musical Signing Off Catch Phrase in the form of the national anthem of whatever country the station is in. U.S. stations often used the Lord's Prayer (one memorable version had Chief Shatka Bear Step (Nez Perce) giving the prayer in a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhLLHjn5sNc Native American sign language]]), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vjKj_k18OI "America the Beautiful" with nature scenes]], "This Is My Country", "God Bless America" or "My Country 'Tis Of Thee", or a poem like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoL-KCFbIpA High Flight]]. Some versions of "The Star Spangled Banner" [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5bdonWlbL8 could get pretty creative with their video production]].[[note]]"Flag Evolution" was produced in 1971 by Saxton Graphics Associates and aired on many stations. There's even [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=DZ1hU2xvF_M an updated modern version]].[[/note]] Many ended off with an hour or so of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian-head_test_pattern The Test Pattern]].
680** In some countries the national anthem at sign-off was (or is) a legal requirement. Mexico mandates radio stations to play the anthem at sign-off and sign-on, or, if they run 24 hours, to play it at 12:00 A.M. and 6:00 A.M.
681* Every Usefulnotes/OlympicGames (whether summer or winter) is closed out by the IOC president with some variation of the following:
682--> And now, in accordance with tradition, I declare the Games of the [ordinal number of Summer Olympics] Olympiad/[ordinal number of Winter Olympics] Olympic Winter Games closed, and [[AndTheAdventureContinues I call upon the youth of the world to assemble four years from now]] in [next host city] to celebrate the Games of the [next ordinal number of Summer Olympics] Olympiad/[next ordinal number of Winter Olympics] Olympic Winter Games.
683* Between the Second and Third UsefulNotes/PunicWars, Roman senator Cato the Elder ended every single one of his speeches with "Carthaga delenda est" - "Carthage must be destroyed." - even if his speech was completely unrelated to Carthage. In 146 BC, Rome made good on that when it completely destroyed Carthage in the Third Punic War.
684* It's common for Japanese speakers to end a presentation with the sentence ご清聴ありがとうございました (''goseichō arigatō gozaimashita'') to thank the viewers. Likewise, replace ''seichō'' with ''shichō'' 視聴 if it's a video and ''etsuran'' 閲覧 if it's an art collection/comic.
685* The Catholic Mass takes its name from the final words spoken by the priest in the Latin versions: "Ite, missa est." ("Go, it's over.")
