* ''Literature/AChristmasCarol'': Averted; a case of BeamMeUpScotty and MemeticMutation has resulted in "bah, humbug!" becoming the Catchphrase of Ebenezer Scrooge. "Bah, humbug" is only spoken twice in the novel, though "humbug" comes up a few more times by itself. At that time, "humbug" meant "hoax" or "jest", so Scrooge was just dismissing Christmas as a fraud in the lingo of the day.

Then there's "The game's afoot!" which is actually a Shakespeare quote that Holmes utters ''once'' in the original stories. He does, however, have at least one genuine catchphrase: "You know my methods. Apply them!" This phrase or variations on it are used maybe six or seven times in the canon, but it hardly ever shows up in adaptations.
