Line 65:
** In the Season 7 opener "The Memories in the Shallow Grave", there's a reference to an embarrassing moment for Booth:
{{quote|'''Angela''': Is it true that you were crying at the crime scene?
'''Brennan''': Booth took a picture. But since I have a picture of him [[Naked People Are Funny|cooking an omelet naked]], he agreed never to show it to anyone.
'''Angela''': I'm sorry. Naked? Wow. Okay, listen, I am your best friend, so I think I should take a peek at that. }}
* ''[[Bottom]]'' has its share of these, including an unfortunate incident with Richie and Eddie's drunken friend Tubbs Lardy, a fire escape, a dustbin, and a very unlucky cat...
Line 180:
** Josh interrupted Drake while he was telling a very ludicrous story.
{{quote|'''Drake''': So my foot's totally stuck in there, right? I'm freaking out, the dogs having a seizure, and I still have half a pie left.}}
* An episode of ''[[Ed
* ''[[Eureka]]'' has one that's easy to miss: After a time jump, Jack looks at his new car and comments that he misses his old Jeep. Allison replies, "Well, maybe next time you won't ignore the 'Tornado Crossing' sign."
* ''[[The Fast Show]]'' has Rowley Birkin QC, who speaks in nothing ''but'' noodle incidents, rambling incoherently before occasionally spouting out phrases such as "one girl was very badly burned" or "her husband had been entombed in ice", before always concluding with "I'm afraid I was very, very drunk."
Line 208:
'''Ted:''' That was him. }}
* And on ''[[Firefly]]'':
{{quote|'''Early:''' You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport, yet by far the most troublesome. [[Catch Phrase|Does that seem right to you?]]
'''Simon:''' What'd he do?
'''Early:''' Who?
'''Simon:''' The midget.
'''Early:''' Arson. Little man looooved fire. }}
** Also seen in the pilot, where an incident involving Patience is mentioned.
Line 265:
*** Rose says it's impossible to paint St. Olaf in the fall after the "falling leaf incident". According to Rose, the story has a surprise ending... "Splat!"
** There's yet another episode where we continually hear people mentioning increasingly more ludicrous things that are occuring, and Blanche's response is simply to say "I got arrested for that once in Chattanooga," without further explanation. It leads to this great exchange:
{{quote|'''Dorothy:''' [[Persona Non Grata|Blanche, are you ever allowed to go back to Chattanooga?]]
'''Blanche:''' Are you kidding? [[Casanova|The sheriff still writes!]] }}
** Blanche also has "the greyhound terminal incident", and something involving the 1964 Tokyo [[Olympic Games]].
Line 375:
'''Ben''': Before that was the Year of the Turkey...
'''Susan''': OK, so it needed to be in for a bit longer.
'''Ben''': Susan, [[Lethal Chef|it was still alive.]] Before that was the Year of the Puppy.
'''Susan''': Ooh, the puppy...yes, that was sad, wasn't it? }}
* ''[[NCIS]]''
Line 544:
* In one episode of ''[[Top Gear]]'', the second part of The Stig's introduction mentions a super injunction to prevent them from mentioning an incident that is mostly blanked out but involves "an enormous goat".
* In the ''[[Too Close for Comfort]]'' episode "Don't Shoot the Piano Movers", Monroe suggests that they use butter to get a piano unstuck from the back stairs, saying that is how he got his toe out of a bowling ball, leading to this exchange:
{{quote|'''Henry:''' "No, no, no. I refuse. [[You Don't Want to Know|I'm going to fight the impulse to ask you what your big toe was doing in a bowling ball]]."
'''Monroe:''' "Good, 'cause I can't tell you anyway."
'''Henry:''' "Good."
'''Monroe:''' "It was a secret initiation." }}
* In the ''[[Torchwood]]'' episode "Everything Changes", Captain Jack is complaining about contraceptives in the rain. Then he adds, "Still, at least I won't get pregnant. [[Mister Seahorse|Never doing that again.]]"
Line 591:
* In a 2006 ''[[X-Play]]'' episode, we learned that they've made fun of Adam Sessler since "The Tommy Tallarico Incident", which apparently happened on April 19, 2003. Blair Butler still has rayon burns.
* ''[[The Young Ones]]'': What do you know about the beans?
* On an episode of ''[[The Nanny]]'', Fran claims her mother ate half an Oreo cookie before realizing it was a refrigerator magnet; seeing as Sylvia did have a major [[Sweet Tooth]] in other episodes, this does make sense.
