Funny / ReBoot

Season 1

• Al.
  • WHAT!!??
  • In "The Great Brain Robbery" Megabyte's underlings sneak into Al's and in response to the waiter giving an order, one of them responds that the order is one its way. The waiter fails to pick on anything weird. Al meanwhile is tied up in rope, so much so that all that can be seen of him is his feet.
• In "The Tear", Frisket is sleeping at the door of Dot's Diner. Since he won't move for Bob, Bob has to go in through the window.
  Dot: Ever heard of a door?
  (Bob's chewed-up zip board suddenly lands at their feet)
  Bob: Ever heard of a Frisket?

• "Racing The Clock":
  • The bomb Bob was carrying blows up, creating a vortex that starts to pull everything in;
  Bob: (unmoved) Huh. It's an infinite data if/else loop.
  Dot: Which means?
  Bob: It means RUN LIKE YOU'VE NEVER RUN BEFORE!!
• "Quick and the Fed":
  • A game cube falls while Bob is being chased by Hack & Slash. Just for his own petty amusement, Bob sends them a Vidwindow during the chase.
    Bob (via Vidwindow): You aren't going to catch me before the game wall closes.
    Hack: Oh yeah?
    Slash: Heh heh heh!
    Hack: Why?
    Slash: Yeah. Why?
    Bob: Because you stopped. (takes off to the game)
    Hack and Slash: LOGIC ERROR! (go back to chasing him)
  • It ends with a hilariously awful Hope Spot:
    Hack: We're gonna make it!
    Slash: Yeah, we're gonna make it!
    (Cut to Megabyte, watching the chase to get into the Game)
    Megabyte: (disgusted) They're not going to make it.
    (The Game wall slams down, and Hack and Slash slam into it, completely disassembling)
    Megabyte: (taps a key, bringing up a maintenance binome) Clean-up crew, level one.
  • Just as Bob is checking his surroundings after entering the game, a knight casually passes by his side and decks him in the face:
    Bob: *looks around* I know this game. Looks like Castles and *POW* KNIGHTS!
  • Enzo taking out the User by throwing his megaphone at him. Made better by Dot's shocked expression.
  • Prior to that Bob tried to stop the User, who broke Bob's sword with a causal tap from his mace.

• "Medusa Bug":
  • Bob and Enzo literally dragging the workaholic Dot away from Dot's Diner and tossing her into Bob's car to force her to take a break and attend the promised picnic with them.
  • Look closely in the background of their next scene, and you can see the diner not too far away. Bob's car only made it a few blocks before breaking down.
  • Hexadecimal's lines from the Medusa Bug are outrageously funny, but this may very well steal the show:
    Hexadecimal: (melodramatic) Oh! Did you see that Scuzzy!? (about to burst into tears) How... sad... all of Mainframe... doomed. (joyful laughter) WHAT'S THIS!? (raw anger) BOB THE GUARDIAN!? Oh No! OH NO! (zooms in her mirror so she can get a close-up of his ass) Oh...yes!
  • The prospect of the apocalypse? Not funny. The prospect of the apocalypse brought about by petrification? Not funny. The prospect of the apocalypse brought about by petrification and caused by a witchlike virus being ended by its creator with just a casual snap of a finger? That's gold right there!
    Bob: Now that is one strange lady.
  • Even Scuzzy agrees with that statement!
  • A hilarious combination of My Significance Sense Is Tingling and Captain Obvious occurs when Bob kicks the back of Hexadecimal's throne, almost knocking her into a Medusa-infected Scuzzy.
    Hexadecimal: "Strange. I sense a presence."
• Apparently Glitch comes with censorship powers: as Bob is jumping off the Dragon piloted by Al and his waiter in "Quick and the Fed", just before nearly crashing through the stained glass window, he shouts "Glitch, B S 'n' P!", separating the pieces of glass to create a safe opening and then rebuilding them after he's jumped through it^note The Broadcast Standards and Practices specifically stated Bob was never allowed to crash through glass at any time.
• "The Great Brain Robbery":
  • Megabyte totally checking out Mouse's backside.
  • A ploy Megabyte couldn't have honestly expected to work when he hires Mouse for a job.
    Megabyte: Really, Mouse. Who do you trust more... Bob or me? *Slasher Smile*
    Mouse: That's it. I'm pulling the plug.
  • When Mouse, Hack and Slash end up in Enzo's brain by mistake and try to download what they think are the Super Computer's access codes, they end up with the password Enzo set up with his friends for their He-Man Woman Hater club, which is broadcast back to Megabyte:
  Enzo: Okay guys, the password is "Bellybutton". No girls allowed!
  Megabyte:...Bellybutton? No girls allowed? That can't be right!
• Nearly the entirety of "Enzo the Smart". Gotta love the dumbed-down Mainframers's antics.
  "We are helping! We are helping!"
  • Special mention to Dumb Bob's many antics, and Dumb Dot imitating a kitty-cat.
  • Mike the TV ends up in the game along with our heroes... And he has no discernible difference in his personality, behavior, or intelligence.
  Enzo: I guess he couldn't get any dumber.
• Near the beginning of "The TIFF", when Bob and Dot start arguing, the camera focuses on a group of binomes, who are quietly sitting there, watching them argue, whilst eating popcorn. Cecil is also watching intently. After a few moments, Cecil actually steals the zero binome's popcorn and also starts eating.
• In "Wizards, Warriors, and a Word from Our Sponsor": Why can't they just turn Mike the TV off? His remote control ran away.
  Dot: Can you blame it?
• Bob is working on his car. While singing along to some music. He turns around and the software pirates make off with Glitch (which was on the table)and whatever else that wasn't bolted down, including his car. The look on his face when he turns around is priceless.
• Pretty much everything revolving around Megabyte's spies and their ridiculous Spy Speak and disguises.
  • At one point, Megabyte stops being annoyed by the Spy Speak and just electrocutes the spy with a push of the button.
• Bob in "Talent Night"... an episode that had already spent half its running time openly mocking the censors.
  Bob: Glitch! BFG.
  • Megabyte throughout the entirety of the episode. He notices Dot's talent auditions for Enzo's party and sends his spies to observe them. When he realizes there was a party he orders his underlings to get ready for a particular plan, which they all hate the idea of implying something very evil (except the one guy who admits to liking it). Megabyte himself hints as some ominous plan when he says all the people gathered at the party won't know what hit them. At the party, Megabyte's Armored Binome Carriers make a big entrance, to set up giant loudspeakers. When Megabyte makes his entrance he starts breaks into a guitar solo. Bob sees it, and appears jealous Megabyte is showing him up and turns Glitch into a guitar. After they finish we have this gem.
    Megabyte: I've always wanted to do that.
  • He then gives his guitar to Enzo, to the boy's delight, before leaving.
  Mike the TV: Ladies and gentlemen, Megabyte has left the building!
  • The Dire Straits cameo. The animators who worked on the infamous music video for “Money for Nothing” worked on Reboot. At one point the movers from that video step up on stage. Clearly the animators on Reboot aren’t too fond of looking back on that video as the badly animated movers get the harshest treatment you can get on stage just short of falling down a trapdoor.

Season 2

• In "Bad Bob": In the "Mad Max" style game Enzo explains everything that happened to Bob. The Guardian attempts to call shotgun in Enzo's car by (unsuccessfully) shooing Frisket away from the front passenger seat. Cut to a displeased Bob riding in the car behind Enzo and Frisket, the latter smugly grinning at him.
  • Near the climax, Bob has Herr Doktor tell Hack and Slash to uncouple the core energy from the back of the Megatruck, which they do. With one problem.
  Herr Doktor: Gahh! Dumkoffs! You're on the wrong side!
• The very beginning of "AndrAIa", with the "True Stories of Mainframe" re-enactment of the episode "Quick and the Fed". The way one of the Binomes portrays Megabyte has to be seen to be believed.
  • In particular, there's the fact that the magnet prop thrown at the Megabyte binome suffers Special Effects Failure and he has to pick it up off the ground and hold it in place. And then he falls off the ledge on a "hidden" mattress and bounces off.
  • And the 'preview' of the next episode.
  Bob Actor: I'm a gardener. I know everything!
  Mike: (off-screen) Psst! That's "Guardian." "Guardian!"
  • The scene where the game that introduces the eponymous character drops down has Phong say the first half of Bob's catchphrase
  Phong: Oh, this is bad.
  Bob: Is it VERY bad?
• Just about anything involving Hex, given that she straddles the line between hilarity and terror. In particular, the exchange between her and Bob where she reveals the truth about her relationship with Megabyte.
  Hexadecimal: We are from the same viral strain.
  Bob: The same family?
  Hexadecimal: (dramatic) Oh, much worse than that, Guardian. He's my brother! (Maniacal Laugh)
  Bob: But you're always trying to destroy each other!
  Hexadecimal: (casual) Oh, that's just sibling rivalry.
  Bob: What would happen if you join?
  Hexadecimal: The next de-generation! (laughs again)
  Bob: Why do I not like the sound of that?
• "Painted Windows" deserves its own section for Hexadecimal's antics alone:
  • In a Black Comedy sort of way, the episode really plays up her Psychopathic Womanchild persona with her simply messing around with the Paint program by using Mainframe as her canvas and not caring how innocent bystanders could get affected by it.
  • Turning Megabyte's Tor into Van Gogh's Sunflower painting, and making the virus himself into a clown, even painting his mouth shut after he protests. Made even funnier that Hex was acting less like his arch enemy hellbent on destroying her rival and more like an annoying sister pissing her brother off by messing with his stuff and humiliating him.
  • Erasing Phong's head and replacing it with an apple. Her pun that follows was also admittedly good.
  Hexadecimal: Oh my dear Phong, now you really are the keeper of the core!
  • Hex completely letting her guard down when Bob and Mike come into Lost Angles under the pretense of interviewing her, especially after coyly asking Bob if he came to foil her plans (which was exactly what they intended to do).
  • Even the Al gag works its way in when Hexadecimal is pursuing Mike while Bob is trying to undo all of her work.
  Mike: Next week on the program, Al's Diner! Slow food, art form, or indigestion?
  Hex: WHAT?
• In "AndrAIa", Bob and Dot rebooted into Fish People with telepathic mind-reading.
  Bob: (admiring Dot's tail and thinking) Nice tail.
  Dot: I heard that too!
  Bob: D'oh!
• This great variation on the "This is bad. This is very bad!" Catchphrase:
  Phong: This is bad.
  Bob: Is it... very bad?
• "Nullzilla" and just about everything involving the Humongous Mecha that the cast are given to fight it.
  • This exchange from the same episode:
  Hack: We're looking for a null.
  Slash: That's right, uh, have you seen one?
  Mike: Have I seen one? Have I seen one?! ...That's a joke, right?
  Hack: Hey, whadya mean "joke"?
  Slash: Joke. Noun. Something said or done to cause laughter, something not in earnest or ridiculous.
  (Hack and Mike just stare at him)
  • An earlier exchange from the same episode:
  Hack: (to Megabyte) You rang, your hugeness?
  Slash: All ready and waiting, oh evil one! Oh! (to Hack) Did I say "evil"?
  Hack: Oh, what a giveaway.
  Slash: I said "evil" once but I think I got away with it.
  Hack: Three times!
  Slash: What?
  Hack: You said it three times!
  Slash: What, "evil"?
  Hack: That's four!
  Slash: Oh, I hate that.
  • The mission Hack and Slash are charged with? Babysitting Nibbles.
  • The moment when Nibbles "runs" away:
  Slash: What a good boy. Look, now he is going for a walk.
  Hack: Uh, what phase number is walking Nibbles?
  Slash: Dahh... there is no number for walking Nibbles.
  Hack: Well, that means he just ran away.
  Slash: Yup, that is right. He ran away, alright.
  Hack: He's gone.
  Slash: He is. Look at him go.
  (Beat)
  Both: Ahhh!!
  • Really, pretty much any time Hack and Slash are on-screen in "Nullzilla" are CMOFs. Another example is when they reluctantly travel to Lost Angles to look for Nibbles before going into "camouflage" mode (complete with Hack being unable to pronounce the word "camouflage" and settling for "stealth" instead) - made even funnier by the fact that since they were emulating nulls, their colors were so incredibly garish they'd stand out anywhere else. And then Slash starts singing "I don't like L.A...".
  • While Bob's group and Nullzilla are duking it out, the robots are just flying around trying to figure out which of the thousands of nulls is Nibbles;
  Hack: C-can you see him?
  Slash: Who?
  Hack: Nibbles!
  Slash: No, no I can't...wait a minute! There he is! (Gets knocked into a building by Nullzilla)
  Hack: (Looks) That's not him!
  • At one point, Nullzilla steps on the robots, squashing them flat!
  Hack: I...hate...nulls...
  Slash: Me, too.
  • Phong being Crazy-Prepared for the situation, despite constantly replying to Bob that Mainframe isn't the Super Computer:
    Phong: Do not worry. I have prepared something for just such an emergency.
    Bob: You're prepared for a giant monster made entirely of nulls STOMPING AROUND MAINFRAME?
    Phong: That is correct!
    Bob: How do you plan for that?
    Phong: Ah, lucky guess?
  • IN CASE OF GIANT NULL MONSTER THREATENING CITY - BREAK GLASS
  • The team all get a morphing call, including Frisket.
    Frisket: Woof woof woof woof woof!
  • Bob and Mike take exception to their costumes;
  Bob: (Muffled speech before tearing off the mouth part of his mask) You can't talk in these things! And I feel ridiculous!
  Mike: You feel ridiculous! Look at me! I'm a g'nat! (To Dot) What's a g'nat?
  Dot: I don't know. But it suits you.
• "Glitch! Um...anything!" Glitch then turns into a lamppost, which Megabyte slams headfirst into, flooring himself.
• Dot gears up in "Web World War." With a gun that's larger and heavier than she is. (Apparently, Matrix gets it from SOMEWHERE...)
  Dot: What do you think? Does it make me look too butch?
  • The Take That! at the network deciding to drop the show, delivered by Those Two Binomes.
  Binky: The ABCs have turned on us!
  Algernon: Treacherous dogs!

Season 3

• "To Mend and Defend":
  • "Grroovvy"
  • The game both Dot and Matrix play is a zombie-shooter based game where they both have to survive against a cameo Ash Williams courtesy of Evil Dead with Matrix transformed to look like the zombie Michael Jackson from "Thriller" and Dot being transformed into a skimpy outfit to look like Elvira Mistress of Darkness. Their dialogue is a blatant You Bastard! to Users/players of zombie-killing games and they even look directly at the audience for good measure.
  Dot: He's just standing there shooting at things!
  Enzo: I know! And in the next level, Sprites are zombies! They've got flesh on their bones!
  Dot: I don't even want to think about that. I mean what kind of sick creature gets enjoyment out of playing this sort of game?! (both Dot and Enzo look at the audience with disapproving glares)

• This song from "Between A Raccoon and A Hard Place".
  • In the same episode, Enzo reboots into Elmer Fudd complete with Elmuh Fudd Syndwome. AndrAIa takes one look at him and bursts out laughing.
• The opening of "Firewall" has Enzo and AndrAIa in a skiing game as snowmen. The User? Is Santa Claus.
  Enzo: 'Ho ho ho'? What kind of lame catchphrase is that?
  • When Cyrus Reboots, he becomes dressed like DickDastardly, complete with mustache-twirling...and Frisket becomes colored like Muttley, complete with snicker!
• "Game Over"
  • Megabyte asks Herr Doktor how long they can keep Hexadecimal tied up. The good doctor is so unsure about the variables because of Hex's power and her messed up mental state that he proposes that Hex is already capable of escaping, but doesn't because she actually likes being tied up. Megabyte doesn't even want to think about that.
  • This little gem after Scuzzy comes to Hexadecimal's rescue:
  Hexadecimal:(sweetly) Scuzzy! (puts on her angry face) It's about time! Where have you been?!
  Scuzzy: (shows the firewall on his dome)
  Hex: A firewall? You call that an excuse?!
  Scuzzy: (raises an eyebrow in an Aside Glance).
• In "Icons", the intro with the group in the system they arrive in, who Matrix convinces to train to win the Games.
  • The absolute best is when a 0 Binome(round version) steps forward with a hard hat and sledgehammer. "Hardboot. My name says it all." Cue Matrix awkwardly nudging him with his boot to make him step back into line.
• In "The Episode with No Name":
  • Matrix and Turbo had blown apart some of the infected Guardians' drones after asking "Do your drones have personality chips?" (or, in plain DOS, are your robots sapient). Later, AndrAIa and Frisket meet the Guardian leader. Frisket growls and AndrAIa translates: "He was wondering if your drone has a personality chip." The drone flees.
  • And then, disappointed, Frisket drops to the ground, looking bored while AndrAIa and the Guardian have an Old West-style showdown.
• Bob in web disguise walking down the pirate ship stairs to see AndrAIa, Frisket growls at the stranger. Bob says "Hi Frisket," causing Frisket to pause, sniffs... and resumes growling. Bob shrugs, his pose practically shouting "typical."
  • When Matrix, who is Enzo grown up, sees Bob, his first instinct is to bowl him over like the good old days. Bob is quick to stop him.
  Bob: Whoa! I think you're a little too big for that.
• In "Mousetrap", Ray Tracer tries to break up an altercation between Matrix and the Web Riders. Unfortunately, he's a bit rusty at speaking the Web Riders' Starfish Language, which sounds like dial-up modem sounds.
  Ray: Handbag... Teakettle... Barbeque...
  Web Rider 1: What in the web is he talking about?
  Web Rider 2: I think he wants us to calm down.
• Mood Whiplash at its finest in the episode "Megaframe" - Dot and Matrix have just had an utterly heartbreaking and emotional reunion, and then he says that they found Bob. They turn - to see Mouse has yanked Bob into a kiss.
• Late in season three, Megabyte walks in on Herr Doktor tucking into a sandwich as he's working. Cue the latter's highly unconvincing attempts to cover up the fact that he's eating said sandwich.
• Hack and Slash recovering Phong's body for him:
  Hack: Ooh! We found it!
  Slash: Yes we did.
  Hack: It was in the trash—
  Slash: I tripped over it.
  Hack: And it smelled...
  Phong: Thank you, boys. I was feeling half the sprite I used to be.
• "System Crash." Mike The TV's only cameo in the season goes a little bit like this:
  Mike: HEYYYY!!! Is there room in this crowded show for a cameo from everyone's favorite talking television?!?
  Everyone else: NO.
• After intentionally letting a User win a game in "System Crash", the main cast decides that all they can do is wait.Suddenly...
  Hex: *suddenly appears in the room* OOH! What are we waiting for? I LOVE surprises!
  • She then offers everyone biscuits (shaped like Herr Doktor and his Igor, no less!)
    • Which Ray is actually about to try but Mouse takes away from him.
    • After Bob convinces Phong to register Hex as a user, she awkwardly wonders were to pin her new icon.
• Bob's saved the system from crashing, he and Dot are about to FINALLY kiss after three season... And then that cockblocking raccoon appears from no where and kisses her instead.
  Rocky the Rabid Raccoon: The girl's tasty, but where's all the food?
• In "End Prog.", Hexadecimal comes to the Principal Office with a gift of cookies...in the shape of her former captors, Herr Doktor and Igor. Phong immediately understands that she transformed them INTO the cookies, but Ray Tracer is seen preparing to bite one before Mouse smacks it out of his hand, with him giving a shrug at her as if to say "What?"
• The Mainframe Strolling Players singing the recap of season 3. Particularly all the Special Effects Failure stuff.
  Background: Don't roll farther than this.

Season 4

• Hexadecimal in 'Daemon Rising,' and her blatant affections for Bob. Two in particular, the look on her face and her extremely put upon "Hello, Dot" when Dot checks in on Bob once the invading Guardians are gone and finds Hex draping him over her and this immortal line:
  Hexadecimal: You need some down time. We... could go down together.
• At the start of "Cross Nodes," a group of Daemon's infected servants, all wearing Spawn-esque masks, rise behind Daemon... and break into a celebratory gospel song about the Word. With Mike the TV on lead vocals. Daemon herself claps in applause at the end before resuming her evil plots as though nothing happened.
• In a pre-series flashback, Bob says that Turbo called his ideas "radical," in a tone of voice indicating he is thinking the wrong definition of the word applies.
• Mouse goes to Phong saying that [they] have a problem. Phong comments that there are a lot, but looks to see Mouse carrying Enzo, who is now going by Little Matrix. Phong casually admits he knows about that one, taking Enzo’s attitude lightly.
• In "My Two Bobs", after AndrAIa tries to calm Matrix down when he forces the military binomes to use live ammo to practice to keep in shape, worried about the next big enemy to surface, a game cube alert sounds. Cue her looking to Matrix, who now has a big stupid grin on his face.
  • Matrix and Dot both using the same line(down to the inflection)when telling Little Enzo he's not going into the game.
  • "Pantsu Hebi X"gets some jabs in at "Pokemon".
  Bob: You keep creatures in CAGES and release them just to fight? That is SICK!
  • At one point, Bobzilla, tired of fighting the countless monsters, just tells Matrix to cheat. Matrix prepares to fight the User's trainer and we get shots of him apparently doing a jump kick towards him, with an anime style backdrop. Eventually, Bob yells "Stop TRYING to hit him and HIT him!" and we see the backdrop is a screen, with a fan hooked up to make the wind effect and Matrix is on a wire.
  • Bobzilla eventually just stomps on the User, winning the game. You can only imagine what the User thought outside of the computer.
• In "Life's A Glitch", Mike the TV does a newscast about the strange transformation Hex gave to Little Enzo's icon. During the newscast, we see "Dot's Diner" behind him as the cameraman gets footage of Matrix, Little Enzo, Classic Bob and AndrAIa together. During the newscast, Little Enzo makes faces at the camera the whole time, while Matrix tries to get Cecil to give the table some service as he blatantly ignores him, culminating in Cecil throwing his dish rag at Matrix and Matrix chasing after the waiter, trying to destroy him.

Unsorted

• Phong getting in a sticky situation with Bob and an alarm conveniently interrupt their talk.
  Phong: Oh! An alarm!
  Bob: Huh, saved by the bell.
  Phong: No, that is a klaxon.
