Censor Bars have been a proud sponsor of Minilife TV since 2012!
As per wiki policy, all spoilers will be off. You Have Been Warned.

Season 1

  • "Dummy Demolition":
    Ian: A show about everything?
    Chris: A show about everything.
    Ian: Say that once more.
    Chris: A show about everything.
    Ian: Now in an accent.
    Chris (in a French accent): A show about everything.
    Ian: I like it, let's do it.
    • After blowing up the dummies, the duo does other random ideas to abuse them; such as using a katana, throwing cats, an elephant stampede, etc.
    • At the end Ian exclaims "PIZZAAAAAAAA!", much to Chris' confusion on how they could destroy their dummies with pizza, to which Ian actually wants to have some for lunch.
  • "Runaway Baby":
  • "The Splitzies 5000!!!":
    • After advertising the titular device, Chris tells Ian they haven't actually made it available for public consumption. Chris and Ian apologize for getting people's hopes up, but it's too late because people have already called in to order it and refunds won't be given.
    [An angry mob bangs on the door of the studio]
    Chris: We're gonna head out before the angry mob breaks into our studio and attacks us with cats. [A crash is heard and Ian legs it] Uh...be sure to like, comment, and subscribe and I hope to see you next week! We're on Facebook now!
  • "Making Up Words":
    • After Chip calls Chris and Ian to say that Minilife Studios is all clear of the angry mob because they've decided to chase Snowball and Archie, Ian remembers he left a peanut butter and bacon sandwich in the fridge there and goes over to get it. Some ending text says that Ian never got it back because Snowball ate it.
    Ian: Oh, what?! DANG IT! Now I hope that angry mob catches him!

Season 2

  • "A Dark Night":
    • The gang try to answer a pre-film trivia question by guessing the silhouette of a "lovable robot icon".
    Chris: Oh, that's so easy! It's clearly R2-D2.
    Ian: What?! Are you crazy?! That looks nothing like R2-D2!
    Chris: It could be, from a certain angle.
    Ian: No way, it's gotta be WALL•E!
    Michael: Eh, it could be Johnny Five.
    Snowball: That's basically the same thing.
    Ian: That's what I was just going to say.
    Chris: I dunno, I'm still thinking R2-D2.
    [The answer is revealed to be Archie from Minilife TV]
    Everyone: Ohhhhhhhhhh!
    Michael: I see it now.
    Ian: Yeah, me, too.
    Chris: Sorry, Archie.
    Archie: [beeps]
  • "Home Alone":
    • When the burglar tries to pry the phone from Chris's hand:
    Chris: No, get away!
    Burglar: I'm not going back to prison!
    Chris: Your breath smells horrible!
    Burglar: My cellmate used all of my toothpaste!
    Chris: Then borrow some from the other prisoners!
    Burglar: Do you have any idea how awkward that is?!

Season 3

  • "Mini-Monster Mayhem!":
    • Jack believes that all the seismic activity within Michael is caused by him wandering around the lab aimlessly.
  • "Of Pancakes And Baseball Caps (PART 2)":
    • When Chris and Ian tell Goshua they've met their human counterparts, Goshua tries to rush them out of his office:
    Goshua: Uh...uh...you know what, I'm sure you boys wanna get home now. [picks up the phone] Gregory, you can come and take Chris and Ian back home now.
    Ian: But I thought the universe was broken.
    Goshua: Uh...we fixed it! It doesn't take that long to sort these matters out. I was just supposed to tell you boys not to do it again, but I'm sure you won't. Uh...you're good boys, right? [pushes Chris and Ian out the door] Of course...of course you are!
    Chris: But we don't even know what we did!
    Goshua: Well, it's not important. You Know What They Say; ignorance is bliss.
    [The door closes and Goshua exhales in relief]
  • "Poking the Pilot":
  • "City Hall":
    • We learn just how stressed out Ian has been balancing his mayoral duties and Minilife TV.
    Snowball: Hey, Ian.
    Ian: Oh my God, Snowball, do you ever shut up?!
    [Aside Glance from Snowball]

Season 4

  • "Abel's Story":
    • In Chris's flashback of how he met Abel, he has a little trouble buying produce in the Oni Region:
    Chris: But I don't need a whole box of apples, I only need a couple!
    Merchant: We don't sell individual apples. Whole box or nothing.
    Chris: Who buys an entire box of apples?
    Merchant: We get a lot of giants that come through here. They go through it like nothing.
    Chris: [sigh] Forget it. I'll just take a few carrots.
    Merchant: No individual vegetables, either.
    Chris: What?! No carrots?! Ah, I suppose now you're gonna tell me you get a bunch of giant rabbits, too?
    Merchant: No, no giant rabbits. I just like to take advantage of customers. Hahahahahaha!
    • This leads to Chris giving the merchant a single coin, which isn't enough for either box, but is enough for a single apple and carrot, as Chris runs off with them in hand.
    Merchant: Stop that kid! He's trying to get reasonable amounts of food for a fair price!

Season 5

  • "Chris and Ian Shamelessly Promote Themselves":
    • One of the rounds on @midflight is "Terrible Super Heroes", where contestants come up with superheroes with lame superpowers. Some highlights include:
      • Begrudging Barista Man, who can super spit into any customer's coffee.
      • Shark Acquaintance Man, who can communicate with sharks, but isn't good enough friends with them to ask them for help.
      • Couch Potato Man, who can find something good to watch on TV quickly.
      • Birthday Man, who can remember any birthday without Facebook, but still doesn't leave any messages.
      • Weather Man, who actually can accurately predict the weather.
    • After @midflight wraps up, Chris Salaises is horrified that Demetri Spartan and The Armless Guy were presumably killed by being dropped out of the plane they were on. Chris Hardware tries to calm him down by explaining that they're in a soundstage and not a plane, Demetri Spartan and The Armless Guy are still alive and hanging out backstage, and that he's not even a real robot and just a cardboard cutout, which gets taken away by a stagehand. This leaves Chris Salaises more confused than relieved.
  • "The Vampodcast":
  • "Life with Death":
    • On Wednesday, Legondo's equivalent of Jehovah's Witness come knocking on Gregory's door and ask about Goshua. Goshua is delighted to hear about himself and invites them inside, but he later chases them out when he doesn't like what they have to say about him, which amuses Gregory.
