Funny / My Favorite Year

• The whole "Removal Business" scene with Boss Rojeck.
  Boss Rojeck: A fight is in rounds. This is Round One. *walks out in the prop hat*
• K.C. tries her hand at doing a stand-up joke. She fails, miserably.
  • It's the Duck Joke she flubs. That's like Joking 101.
  • And Benji gives her money for accordion lessons.
• Swann's panic attack on the moment he realizes the show he's doing is live.
• Benjy's first night baby-sitting Swann:
  Swann: Alfredo, telephone the Stork Club, we'll be two for dinner.
  Alfie: You sure you want the Stork Club, Mr. Swann?
  Swann: It's been a year and a half. Surely they've repaired the wall of the bandstand by now.
• Swann arrives late at the writers' meeting, drunk out of his mind:
  Sy: He's plastered!
  Swann: So are some of the finest erections in Europe!
  • Swann then drunkenly watches a clip of one of his swashbucklers that was being played at the meeting.
    Swann: Oh, good God! It's Renfield! I thought he was dead!
    (Swann's character stabs him to death on screen.)
    Swann: Oh, yes! So he is!
• Swann's rather suave way to use a restroom:
  Lil: This is for ladies only!
  Swann: (unzips his fly) So is this, ma'am, but every now and then I have to run a little water through it!
  (Lil, played by the unflappable Selma Diamond, can only nod in agreement)
• Herb finally says something out loud. Even with a major fight going on, everyone in the control room turns in shock.
• After watching this movie, you will never again be able to listen to the 1812 Overture without laughing your ass off.
• King Kaiser gives Swann a pep talk just before airing... and then realizes they're in different costumes. When asked what the first sketch is, Swann replies "The first sketch I'm in is the musketeer sketch" which sends Kaiser into a panic. He proceeds to race around the hallways screaming about being in the wrong costume and asking anyone which sketch is first. Meanwhile, Swann sits and calmly puts on his wig. The scene also cuts to Lil in the costume room.
  "[to herself] Listen to this, he thinks he's in the wrong costume every week. He's so crazy."
• Swann: Rookie, your Meatloaf Mindanao was superb!
  Rookie: Thanks. That takes two days to prepare, you know.
  Swann: Really! Tell me, what was that rather pungent taste?
  Rookie: Parrot!
  (Morty spits up and Sadie sees the parrot cage is empty)
  Rookie: And they're not easy to work with. They put up some squawk.
  Swann: (registering this) I can imagine!
