“Waldorf & Statler”
- You should know! You dated his sister!
- Boy, was she ugly.
- (Gonzo has performed a dangerous stunt and hurt himself)
- Maybe Gonzo should quit while he's ahead.
- Gonzo should quit while he's alive!
- That song had a nice beat.
- No thank you, I don't want to eat.
- I said beat! Why don't you turn up your hearing aid?
- There's going to be a raid? Let's get out of here!
- Hey, he just tried to drown us! What kind of act is that?
- An act of mercy!
- That's talent. An opera singer who tap-dances and sings cowboy songs. I wonder if there's anything she isn't good at.
- Yes. Choosing what show to be on.
- That was a great number, I don't care what you say.
- I thought it was dumb.
- Maybe you're right.
- [sings] You are my sunshine, my only sunshine...
- Why you old fool! I'm not your son and my name's not Shine!
- What's wrong with you?
- It's either this show or indigestion. I hope it's indigestion.
- Why?
- It'll get better in a little while.
- [throws a rubber ring] Here, catch!
- Waste of time. Nothing will save this show.
- It's too bad Gonzo's leaving this show.
- Yeah. I can think of some other people I'd rather see leave this show.
- Who?
- Me!
- What do you suppose they call that? A novelty act?
- Well, it wasn't too bad.
- Well, that's a novelty!
- So they blew up half the theater.
- At least they blew up the right half.
- (in unison) Theirs!
- I now realize television has one major advantage over a live stage show.
- What's that?
- A television you can turn off!
- You know, I love French singers.
- I love French fries.
- French fries? I don't get that.
- You didn't order any!
- You know, I'm really gonna enjoy tonight.
- You plan to like this show?
- No, I plan to watch television!
- Personally I don't care for puppets much. I don't find them believable.
