What is your favorite gag from any show.

My favorite simpsons gag is in the classic, radio bart. When Marge was tricked into Maggie saying mama. Marge asks for her to say it again, this time.
"sorry lady, shows over."
That is a classic gag and had me laughing for a while.

What are yours. Please stab me if this is ABP'D

I dunno about my favorite ever, but I'm sure many of the ones I could think of would come from Monty Python's Flying Circus. The first one that comes to mind is the the Penguin on the Television:



Really the whole sketch is one of my favorites.

Monty Python's running gag of using Vikings and/or "Lemon curry?" were some of the funniest to me.

"Lemon Curry?"

Here are two of my favorites featuring that lovable drunk, Barney Gumble:

Moe asks Barney to watch the bar while he's going out to kill Bart.
Moe: "And don't steal any beer while I'm gone!"
Barney: "What kind of pathetic drunk do you take me for? *Gasp* Oh, no! Somebody spilt beer in this ash tray! *SLURP!* Ahhh!"

Later, Barney is underneath the tap chugging beer.
"Oh, No! My heart just stopped!" *long pause* "Ah, there it goes!" *goes right back to chugging beer.*

Ahhh Barney Gumble, the only one who is truly funny,
My favorite Futurama gag is as follows.
It's on, kif get's knocked up a notch.

Basically, Kif get's pregnant when he touched Leela's hand.
Soon, they have a baby shower, and at the near end of the scene, Amy runs out beacause she doesn't want to be the mother(Kif really loved Amy, not Leela)
Then, A baby's cry was heard, after 3 seconds, the view turns to Zoidberg, crying like a new born baby. That was hilarious.

There, now don't you feel better?

The Simpsons:
Homer's casual breaks in stupidity. For example, in the episode 'The PTA Disbands', Lisa is feeling stressed from being away from school during the teachers' strike and creates a perpetual motion machine. Homer calls her into the room and says, "In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!" Also, when he listened to a vocabulary tape while he slept and started using such complicated words that no one could understand him.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air:
Phil's tendancy to quite literally throw Jazz out of the house, the frequent fourth wall breaks, and Will's comments about Carlton's "white" behaviour, especially when he compared him to an Oreo.

The Drew Carey Show:
At the end of most of Drew's dreams, someone will hand him a large fish and say, "Here's your fish."

Kim Possible:
In the episode 'Bad Boy', Drakken tried to become more evil (or just evil to begin with) by using a device that would seperate his good energy from the evil and leave him with just the evil. The device was broken, though, and the evil energy went to Ron, who became much better at being evil than Drakken was, and Drakken himself became good. He also started refering to chocolate milk as "cocoa moo". Drakken is just a great character overall.

Personally, I like the Frau Blücher Joke

"Frau Blücher!"
*Horses go insane*

I like that one Monty Python where this guy throws a tennis ball at this guy and it lands in his eye and it spurts out blood and this lady faints and tears this guy's arm off, and it spurts blood, and eventually it's all gorey and stuff. It's hilarious.

Sam Peckinpah's 'Salad Days'. That's one of my all time favorite Python sketches.

One of my favorite gags is from UHF (Wierd Al's movie) where Emo Philips plays an inept shop teacher who chops off his own thumb on the table saw and seems completely indifferent about it. "Just call me Mr. Butterfingers..."

My favorite Simpsons gags are when things blow up for no reason (A milk truck, Moleman in a Gremlin, etc.) and in the Deep Space Homer ep. where Barney lauches himself into the air with a jet pack and then crashes back to Earth, bouncing painfully along the roof of a Pillow Factory before landing in the street and getting run over by a truck carrying marshmallows.

Ah. It was the middle one.

To go along with the explosion jokes, I love the april fools joke that Bart pulled on Homer in, So it's come to this, another Simpsons clip show.

And the similar jokes of unflamable objects catching on fire, EG. Pram.

My favorite Mel Brooks gag has to be the classic 'Puttin' on the Ritz' scene in Young Frankenstein.

Another favorite is the crappy movie within a movie in Strange Brew.

Bob McKenzie: Fleshy-headed mutant. Are you friendly?
Doug McKenzie: No way, eh? Radiation has made me an enemy of civilization.

Sig?

One of my favorites is from Letterman. Someone asked if they ever pull any pranks on each other, and Paul had a flashback. Paul gets some bread, peanut butter and jelly out and is going to make a sandwich. The phone rings and he gets up to answer it. Dave then sneaks to the table and starts shaking his peanut butter like mad and then sneaks away again. Paul returns, opens up the peanut butter to make his sandwich and it explodes all over his face. Then he stands up and yells "Who shook up my peanut butter!"

They used to have the video up on the late show website, but unfortunately it's gone.

I think it's funny when in any show some little defenseless animal gets kicked around, like the FedEx commercial or Scrat in Ice Age.

I also like comic strips by Gary Larson, when there is something that says "Trouble Brewing" and there is something like the annual toy dog fashion contest next to the national falconers committe's association day right across this row of trees. Gary Larson is da schizzle.

Last year, at the Halloween party I went to, one of the guests camed dressed as the lady with the tennis racket in her gut. It was HILARIOUS.

I love the Python sketch where the scientists babbling incomprehensibly pull random devices out of a drawing on a sheep. It got me laughing HYSTERICALLY.

Also funny: The scene in Mary Poppins--yes, the movie--where the nursery starts going insane and all the desks and closests open and close and... oh man, just THINKING about it makes me giggle!
