Post your favorite clichéd sitcom jokes :hat

[Esuohlim]

Whiny character: (says something important or asks a question)
Jerk friend: Hahahahahaha....(pause)....OH YOU'RE SERIOUS. (laugh track)

>:

[Mr. Vagiclean]

"You telling me that you added THAT to my mother's brownies??"

:eek :eek



>:

[Zbu Manowar]

The one that annoys me the most is the Must See TV Repeated Dialogue Syndrome. An example?

MONICA: But you can't fuck a camel!

JOEY: I can't fuck a camel?

MONICA: No camel fucking!

(cue obviously drugged audience clapping like drugged seals)

[Mad Melvin]

Man: I dont say this often enough, but...I love you.
Audience: Aaaaaawwwwww
Woman: I love you too.
then the man and the woman hug.
Man(still holding the woman): So, How about some anal sex?
audience: hahahahahahahha!!

[Jixby Phillips]

The one that annoys me the most is the Must See TV Repeated Dialogue Syndrome.

Oh jesus, this one is so awful. Seinfeld does it in every episode, but I still like Seinfeld.

I will highlight a couple of good ones from this page (http://www.novirginsallowed.com/f-ckyoub-tch/tvshows.html):

when someone gest killed and everyoens like "we're the polcie"
sent to us from huond!

when they pretend to talk on the phone and the off-the-hook alarm goes off and they get embarassed!
sent to us from Jixby Phillips!

(that one is demonstrated in HOT TUPAC which you can read in the Reccomended Readings/Stories board)

END OF TRANSCRIPT

[the_dudefather]

(as seen in friends a lot)

phoebie: what do you think of this picture?
racheal: its really weird and stupid...
phoebie: i painted it!
racheal: ..and i LOVE weird and stupid things!

and...

monica: i cant believe you guys actualy watch porn!
joey: whats wrong with porn?
monica: its just a bunch of sweaty naked people
joey and chandler: YEAH!?!?! (in load obnoxious voices)

[N00bKill3R]

The catch phrase... with attitude!
Uncle Jesse: "Have mercyyy!"
The Fonz: "aeyyyyyy"
Joey: "WOOOAAHH!"

[Esuohlim]

FRIENDS? :rolleyes

[Captain Goodtimes]

you nimcompoots milhouse did ask for specific quotes, he asked of cliches, and whats with this friends crap >:

I have several.

Baby Birth episodes the father always faints >:

Then there's the LAME EXCUSE ONE, where the person has to make one up and his.her friends chime it making someting TOTALLY RIDiculouse

I have to..
IDIOT 1: Buy
IDIOT 2: WATERMELEON!
Yeah i have to Buy Watermelon sorry. >: >:

And of course made famous by three's company was the comic sexual misunderstanding, where it sounds like their fucking (whoops) but actually they are just putting up drywall or something like that. >: >: >:

[Burger Lord]

when the main character tries to sneak away from employer/girlfriend/etc. and bumps into them without noticing,

[N00bKill3R]

OH OH! The person has to be two places at the same time, like dates, and keeps running back and forth

[the_dudefather]

especially if they have to change cloathes or wigs between people, then HAHA they wear the wrong thing at the wrong table.

the only show that gets away with the forementioned cliche is blackadder, mainly becuase its funny . especially for the 'great booze up' explanation :)


another one which happens far to often is the 'confession' sketch. one character has to confess something to another character. eg:

(racheal has to tell monica that she broke her vase)
racheal: monica, i have to tell you somethi...

monica: know what makes me mad? that someone would just break my vase and not even tell me! if i knew who did it, i would simply kill them! now what where you saying....

racheal: uhhhhhh... nice...wallpaper! uhuhuhuhuh....

(cue scooby doo-esce canned laughter)

[King Hadas]

Norm: Good afternoon, everybody.

Everybody: Norm!

Coach: How about a beer, Norm

Norm: Hey, I'm high on life Coach. Of course, beer is my life.

[Sethomas]

Getting trapped in an elevator.

[Ant10708]

Getting trapped in an elevator. with a pregnant woman.

[DamnthatDavid]

The friends tells you to watch a pet/baby/robot and it escapes, and they find it in the least likely spot.

Or the pet/baby/robot dies, and they replace it.

Or the pet/baby/robot gets injured, and they cover it up.

[Jixby Phillips]

you guys are describing SITUATIONS, not JOKES, jeez louise are you guys dumb!

[Killer Manatee]

The Serious Situation clichés. Drugs, illnesses. Hell, even weddings. They always try to make the audience feel like there's this deep, meaningful situation happening, and it makes me laugh how stupidly these things are written.

I think the only show that made it work was MASH, but then I didn't consider that a sitcom anyways.

[Jixby Phillips]

Jesus fucking christ you guys are SCREWING IT ALL UP!

[bigtimecow]

sienfeld:

kid: hey, you just DOUBLE DIPPED the chip
george: what are you talking about? (audience :lol)
kid: you just dipped the chip, bit it, then dipped it again. you DOUBLE DIPPED THE CHIP. that's like putting your whole mouth in the bowl!

[FS]

That's not a cliché :/

How about when Alf gets a chance to go home BUT HE STAYS is that a good one

How about when Alf tries to eat the cat but gets caught then tries to cover it up

How about when the neighbor thinks she's seen Alf and they try to cover it up by telling her she probably has a brain tumor

[FS]

OK but seriously though, when the father's mother comes over to stay and he's really overprotective but she just wants to GET JIGGY WITH IT and have sex or do drugs or watch porn or other stupid shit.

[Captain Goodtimes]

How about when the older brother/sister comes in from whatever-city and he's always better than the other guy, until you find out that the sibling is a real smuck and everyone loves the other guy again.

[DamnthatDavid]

you guys are describing SITUATIONS, not JOKES, jeez louise are you guys dumb!

The sitcoms call them situational jokes. It funny, because of the situation.

[Jixby Phillips]

You are WRONG

HERES A GOOD ONE: when the charater asks a question like, "If you are out here, then who was that upstairs in bed... they sounded just like..." (they realize the answer, and both complete the sentance and angrly call out to the person) "... URKEL!!!!!!!!"

[Esuohlim]

Or when in one scene they're like "There is absolutely no way in the world that you can talk me into doing it." Then the scene changes instantly and it's like "I can't believe you talked me into doing it."

[Captain Goodtimes]

I think situations should be added because those are just big jokes.

How about this one:

http://www.crazyabouttv.com/Images/wings.jpg

Joe: this party is cgoing to be fun.

Roy: Can I come?

Joe: uhhh...ook!

Roy: great I'll bring my (insert lame thing Ex: Recorded Maury Episodes)

Then the other guys start punching Joe cause he was a doofus to invite roy.

[thebiggameover]

i like the jokes where 2 people hate each other and they talk shit back and forth

drew carrie
the bar hop in cheers
jessie and slater

[Ninjavenom]

Woman: It's not that i don't trust you... it's just that... well, i don't trust you.

[McMock]

This is every episode of the nanny:

Nanny: There is NO way <ungh> is going to happen.
Butler walks in and says: Did you hear? <ungh> just happened.

Another annoying one.

Smarter person: We need to be pro-active and go to the mall.
Dumb person: What?
Smarter person: We should favour action, go to the mall.
Dumb person: What?
Smarter person: To the mall!
Dumb person: Okay!

or even:

Dumb person: Why didn't you say so immediately?

Fresh prince of bel air:

every time somebody mentions height, children or growth deficiency syndrome:
Will: <Carlton-remark>!

Substitute for a <The Fat Dad Type of Guy> remark whenever fatness or bigness is mentioned.

[Captain Goodtimes]

I think this is the most overused sitcom joke/situation ever, try to top this one, every sitcom has done it at least once:

Pretty obvious, when two characters are having a serious argument about something juicy and once they settle things they open the door and oh look, the rest of the family/gang is there eaves dropping, then one of them make a joke about the door being broken >: >: >:

[the_dudefather]

the saved by the bell "dont get mad - get even" way of ending an episode where a character who lies/cheats other character gets a taste of his own medicine - with hilarious results -

[Emu]

Where two people hate eachother but then some kind of wacky sitchation forces them to work together and then they end up being best of friends but the bully character has a reputation to maintain so they go back to being bully and sock puppet characters so they won't have to change the plots of any of the shows after that. :picklehat

[Esuohlim]

"QUICK, TELL ME THE NUMBER FOR 911!" >:

[the_dudefather]

when a guy is being set up on a blind date and they TOTALLY try and get out of it with no luck, but then the blind date is SUPER HAWT and the guy goes all gagga

the blind date is never seen in any following episodes

[Marine]

say... this mushroom is edible right?
