Name that TV Show

[WordWolf]

ah-I never watched 'the A team"-not once

was I missing something ?

If you were a teenager when it was airing, you missed a lot.

It was a fun action show with some McGuyvering elements (they often improvised

very effective technology from what was at hand), and they fired

guns and rockets and all kinds of stuff, and managed to stop their

pursuit without even one casualty to them, the military, or the episode's villains.

George Peppard was Hannibal Smith, who was a disguise expert, & tactician.

"I love it when a plan comes together."

Mr T was BA "Bad Attitude" Baracus, strongman, driver, and technician.

He never wanted to fly.

Dwight Schultz was HM "Howling Mad" Murdock, pilot and presumably insane

resident of a VA Hospital, and the reason BA hated to fly.

Dirk Benedict was Templeton Peck "Faceman", con artist and technician.

They had a few different people, not from their original team, who joined

as fifth members during the run of the show.

WW is correct. In fact, my next quote would have been, "Just drink your milk." Hannibal usually drugged BA's milk to get him on the plane.

My favourite scene like that was when BA watched them, switched milk with Murdock,

watched Murdock fall asleep, drank Murdock's milk, laughing, then fell asleep as Murdock

got back up....

"Remember Zeno and that immovable object thing? We're about to find out that answer."

"Your lives mean nothing to me!"

"What the hell was that?"

"A Pontiac!"

"Whats all this?!....looks like Darth Vader's bathroom!"

"I bet you're tall and dark and handsome."

"I'm definitely dark and handsome."

"Whats all this?!....looks like Darth Vader's bathroom!"

"I bet you're tall and dark and handsome."

"I'm definitely dark and handsome.I'm only tall when I'm climbing a steep incline."

""You are about as much fun as a divorce, which is not a bad idea!"

"I want custody of me! "

"I mean, you're a regular - real thing. Not just something out of a nightmare, like you looked last night."

"Nothing has changed since last night."

"Oh, yeah. That's easy for you to say. Wh-Where did you come from, anyway? And how did you get in that building?"

"That edifice was the laboratory... where I was first activated... and where I was also... deactivated."

"Deactivated? You mean somebody turned you off?"

"My creator, Wilton Knight. He brought me into the world and then turned on me."

"Aww. Take it easy. Take it easy. My old man - same way."

"Yeah. You can't count on nobody 'cept me and Tony."

"Interesting. I will enter that information in my databanks. I am indebted to both of you. You have reactivated me. How may I serve you?"

"Serve us? What do you mean, serve us?"

"I have checked my data on basic human desires. Therefore, I understand your needs."

"Come on."

"You wish to eat?"

"Well, yeah."

"You wish to drink?"

"Yeah."

"You wish to reproduce?"

"Yeah."

"Which one first?"

"How about a couple - couple of eggs, sunny side up?"

"I have no eggs. Perhaps you can direct me to a chicken."

"Ah, what are you? A comedian? "

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Knight Rider"?

George

[WordWolf]

"Knight Rider"?

George

Correct!

That first quote and last long exchange was from the episode

"KITT vs KARR",

when the Knight Industries Two Thousand met his evil predecessor,

the Knight Automated Roving Robot.

The second one included the name of the inventor.

Go, George!

This was a show with a regrettably short run, but it was recent enough that some of you might have seen it and remember it:

"You know that show, 'Touched by an Angel'? Well, this ain't it."

George

[GeorgeStGeorge]

"Where are the other two?"

"It's bad. Really bad."

"Now, don't exaggerate. They'll walk again."

"Yeah, with canes."

"It'll make them look debonair."

"You know that show, 'Touched by an Angel'? Well, this ain't it."

Vengeance Unlimited

(very similar to Dexter on showtime)

[GeorgeStGeorge]

Correct. Michael Madsen was great as Mr. Chapel, who would "take care of" situations for you either for $1,000,000 or for your promise to do him a favor in the future. (For instance, if you were a bank executive, he might ask you to let him into the vault so that he could scam a bad guy.) Once you did the favor, you were paid up. Only ran half a season. Quel domage! :(

Be there. Aloha

(George-check out Dexter on Showtime, very similar theme)

[hiway29]

Fonzie on the 'jump the shark' episode of Happy Days?

[pawnbroker]

nope

[WordWolf]

Be there. Aloha

(George-check out Dexter on Showtime, very similar theme)

With the Hawaiian greeting, I HAVE to go with

"Hawaii Five-Oh",

or Hawaii the 50th state.

Mahalo aloha, or something like that.

[pawnbroker]

WW..

you are correct ur up..

"Don't worry. I added king-size flippers.

Now it can carry a heavy load....

Even a FAT one!"

"I love my dear sweet mother in-law. My mother in-law is a doll.

I love my dear sweet mother in-law. My mother in-law is a doll.

I love my dear sweet mother in-law. My mother in-law is a doll."

"Are you feeling alright, mister?"

"Huh? Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay."

"Good. Good. You just stay in here and rest. That hot sun out there is a killer."

"Poor guy, he must have been standing in it for hours."

"Scoodly-wah-wah-wah!

Contact!"

"Whale on the beach! Whale on the beach! "

"It says here to fold in one egg.

*splat*

And I say it can't be done!"

"What do we need 2 tons of parsley for?"

"Don't you know anything?

You put a little on each customer's plate, so's the customer can t'row it away!"

"Judo chops."

[hiway29]

sounds like The Flintstones to me

[WordWolf]

sounds like The Flintstones to me

CORRECT!

"Don't worry. I added king-size flippers.

This was after Fred's initial tests of the Barneycopter showed he couldn't get lift, and he went

over a cliff, ignoring Barney.

"I love my dear sweet mother in-law. My mother in-law is a doll.

I love my dear sweet mother in-law. My mother in-law is a doll.

I love my dear sweet mother in-law. My mother in-law is a doll."

"Are you feeling alright, mister?"

"Huh? Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay."

"Good. Good. You just stay in here and rest. That hot sun out there is a killer."

"Poor guy, he must have been standing in it for hours."

Fred was trying to talk himself into liking his mother-in-law.

"Scoodly-wah-wah-wah!

Contact!"

Hot Lips Hannigan was in town, the old beatnik musician who was old friends with Fred.

"Whale on the beach! Whale on the beach! "

Fred took a swing at Barney and fell to the ground.

"It says here to fold in one egg.

*splat*

And I say it can't be done!"

"What do we need 2 tons of parsley for?"

"Don't you know anything?

You put a little on each customer's plate, so's the customer can t'row it away!"

Both of these are from when Fred and Barney tried to run the

Brown Turban (like the Brown Derby in Hollywood) Drive-In.

"Judo chops."

They were playing secret agent, and escaped by using judo chops on all the mooks.

AFAIK, this is the only place you'll ever hear judo chops mentioned.

That's because "ju-do" (translation:"the gentle way") has no punches, kicks OR chops,

and consists entirely of grapples, grabs, holds and throws.

So, every time they used a "judo chop", it was just another piece of fiction in

a fictional cartoon. ("A' judo, chop-chop-chop." )

Didn't Austin Powers use "judo chops" as well?

Honestly couldn't tell you, but someone else may know the answer.

"Would you care to stay for dinner? We're having roast beef".

"No thank you.I really must be going home. We're having squab tonight."

[hiway29]

I thought this one would be duck soup.

second clue-just finish the sentence.

"that's a lovely dress you have on,Mrs. ..."
