There are some tv shows where you can say a phrase or two and most folks will know exactly which show you're talking about. For example, "Elizabeth! I'm comin' to join ya, honey!" was commonly said on Sanford & Son. Another one was "Sit on it!" from Happy Days. These sayings become popular and are frequently quoted or used in conversation. They're a part of our pop culture. Everyone has their favorites. What are your favorite TV quotes and catch phrases?
Some of mine:
Book 'em, Danno. - Hawaii Five-o
I know nothing! - Hogan's Heroes
I love it! I love it! - Dukes of Hazzard
I love it when a plan comes together. - The A-Team
Beam me up, Scotty - Star Trek (Yeah, I know that exact phrase was never used on the show, but it's become irrevocably tied to the show.)
Let's bust some punks! - The Good Guys
"Oh, the pain, the pain!"

"Oh, the pain, the pain!"
