Go To

1* The very first funny moment in the series was in the pilot, during the scene where Tia and Tamera first meet each other. A boy, mistaking Tia for Tamera, asks her out on a date, but she turns him down, and then he sniffs his own breath. Later, Tamera goes up to him and he walks off in a huff, and then [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike Tamera sniffs her own breath]].
2** The poor beleaguered clothing store employee who keeps getting caught up in the twins' accidental shenanigans and eventually just decides to chuck the both of them out, which leads directly to their first meeting because [[MamaBear their]] [[PapaWolf parents]] don't take kindly to that.
3* "The Concert" has the exchange between the party crasher and the bouncer:
4-->'''Crasher:''' Yo man, I'm on the list, man. See, right here: Rasheed Benfalls. That's me. I'm up in the [[JiveTurkey hiz-house!]]
5-->'''Bouncer:''' Yo man, that's my name.
6-->'''Crasher:''' Hey, what a coincidence! Two Rasheed Benfalls in the same place. Give me some love, brother.
7-->'''Bouncer:''' Get outta here, man.
8-->'''Crasher:''' (pauses) Hey man, can I borrow twenty bucks?
9* In one episode, Roger agrees to help Ray with a household task for the low rate of five dollars an hour. However, he makes it six when Ray takes a dig at Roger’s peculiar hair braids.
10* Lisa accidentally creates DisasterDominoes on two occasions. Once at the supermarket, and most famously: at a church where her boyfriend's ''father'' is the pastor!
11* The episode where they try to be cheerleaders. They performed very poorly at the tryouts, which ends with the girls doing the splits painfully. This was later brought up in a ClipShow.
12* At the end of the first part of "Thanksgiving in Hawaii", Tia and Tamera get stranded in the middle of the ocean, thanks to a really stupid plan to get lost so that two boys can rescue them. They decide to attempt to swim back to shore but then Tamera remembers another movie which is Film/{{Jaws}}, which can mean only one thing: There might be sharks in the water. Cue the twins screaming, [[SkywardScream "HEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPP!!!"]]
13* This exchange with Lisa and Ray at the end of the pilot:
14-->'''Ray:''' ''[while looking at his new mailbox]'' Lisa, this is very you.
15-->''[beat]''
16-->'''Lisa:''' No, Ray. It's us. ''[smiles]'' It's ''us''.
17-->''[episode ends and executive producer credits are shown]''
18-->'''Ray:''' ''[off-screen]'' Someone help me.
19* The episode "Two's Company" has Lisa as a goldmine where she goes to a funeral [[DrunkOnMilk hyped up on laughing gas]]. Sure, that can't actually happen in real life but RuleOfFunny.
20** Lisa sits next to a woman with a hat and says "Next time before you leave the house, two words: ask somebody" - defending it to Ray by comparing the hat to a pigeon's nest.
21** The funeral is for a woman called Eugenia Dobson, who Lisa couldn't stand, and yet she has to give the eulogy. The pastor introduces her as someone who "loved her dearly" and...
22--> '''Lisa:''' I thought ''I'' was speaking.
23** Ray by some miracle gets to cover up Lisa's rant about the woman.
24--> '''Lisa:''' When I think about Sister Eugenia, I think about the biggest pain in my--
25--> '''Ray:''' [[LastSecondWordSwap HEART!]] Lisa, we all felt it when she left us.
26--> '''Lisa:''' I used to come into this church in a good mood, and that little organ grinder would walk up to me and just make me want to throw up--
27--> '''Ray:''' My hands! And...praise the lord!
28** Lisa then leads the congregation in singing "I've Got the Joy Down in My Heart", with the justification that it was Eugenia's favourite hymn (It actually was ''Lisa's'' favorite hymn, and she thought Eugenia, who was the music dirctor, refused to play it just to spite her). All the time Ray is burying his head in his hands, mortified.
29** A FunnyBackgroundEvent. When Lisa can't find her cue cards, she just casually tosses her purse away and it lands either near or in the casket.
30* A boy asks both Tia and Tamera out, not realising that they're twins, and when they make him choose he goes with Tamera on the slim reasoning that "I liked her shoes". After the two leave, Tia realises "those were ''my'' shoes!"
31* When looking for a video to rent, Ray looks through some classic musicals and notes that they don't make them like Creator/GeneKelly or Creator/FredAstaire anymore.
32--> '''Lisa:''' That's because they were the last two white men who could dance.
33* Lisa is coerced into making a dress for a businesswoman who's been nominated for Woman of the Year. The woman ignores Lisa's more tasteful design tailored to her figure, and insists on a skimpier red dress that doesn't do her body any favours. Lisa's BrutalHonesty finally comes out.
34--> "If you wear this, you won't be Woman of the Year. You'll be woman with rear."
