Moments that made you (literally) lol

Watched this little gem over the weekend. So glad I decided to.

Without further ado...

Bill after watching a porno: "Are we going to hell for this?"
Haverchuck in general was probably the funniest character. His constant deadpan quips had me busting up all season.

Ken after getting the 'GTFO' look from Kim and Lindsay: "I think I'm gonna go pee."
The line itself isn't very funny. Just the slow realization of what the girls want and how he picks up on it.

"Get a woman laughin' and you get a woman lovin'." Forgot his name, but the Dungeon Master was hilarious all season. He reminds me of a guy I know who is geeky but seems like he's got it all figured out. Great character.

And, finally, fruit-rollups. Both times.

I bled in the mud for our family.

- "Friday night! Always a good night for some Sabbath! Cause you know, Friday... is the Sabbath... for the Jews?"

- "Don't worry about it. You only have three minutes and twenty-six... twenty-six seconds left... in Heaven."

- The Neal/Morty scenes. Also, Bill's fear of Morty and Mr. Weir's amusement with the act made me laugh.

Probably a Bill scene. Firsts that come to mind are these ones (actually from the same episode both):

Bill Haverchuck: Remember that time in civics when I had to fart, and it came out, well, a poop? And I had to flush my undies down the toilet? Do you think I wanted to tell you that?

Martin Starr's delivery is so good.

Neal Schweiber: So I wake up this morning, and guess what is sitting on the end of my bed?
Bill Haverchuck: A turd?
Neal Schweiber: Yes, Bill, a turd.
Bill Haverchuck: Ewwwwww! Gross!

Great delivery from Starr again, and I like the sarcastic reaction from Neal.

A lot of Mr Rosso's lines crack me up, mostly because of his funny delivery.

"You know who didn't go to college? Frank!"
"Frank?"
"Frank, the dude who pumps my gas."

When he told us he had herpes, I nearly fell out of my chair laughing.

Also Harold Weir's sarcastic lines were hilarious.

I love the scenes where Bill is slow to realize something very obvious...

The moment when Bill realizes the chair didn't make the noise like Cindy had said. It slays me every time when he lifts his head up and the confused look on his face when he figures out she just farted.

And the other one is in Dead Dog and Gym Teachers, where The Who's Love Reign O'er Me is playing as the coach emerges from Bill's mother's bedroom in his underwear, and Bill doesn't understand what is going on yet. Then his mother appears in her bathrobe and hugs the coach, and Bill still doesn't quite get it. Then the coach takes a swig out of the 'Bill' mug, then Bill finally realizes what has happened and is disgusted. Classic.

In the Secret Service episode, Mr. Rosso is great - talking about how much he earns, and his earnestness about America, even though he is an unreformed hippy.

Also when Ken tells him he thinks he's gay. Great understated acting, and very funny.

Surprised nobody brought up when Daniel was accused of cheating and he tells the story about being in in track 3. The shots of Lindsey watching him kills me every time and of course the pay off of her finally losing it at the end and Daniel trying to tell her to "be cool"

There is also the time that Lindsey gets high and she is babysitting that kid and she is freaking out.

I agreeing with the other posters who mentioned Bill's scenes. He was usually comedic gold.

That Daniel and Lindsay scene gets me every time.

Bill dressed as the bionic woman for Halloween.

We see him doing a little skit with the phone, and his mother catches him. LMAO

when lindsey bursted out laughing when franco was giving that rehearsed spiel about the three tracks when they got caught cheating.

This beginning of "Noshing and Moshing" when Bill is "dancing sexy" like Rerun to teach Sam and Neal how to get women.

[–] FooserX 11 years ago

When Cindy pulls Bill aside to confess that she likes Sam.

Bill says something along the lines of...

"I didn't fart in front of you, I just took the blame for Sam, because it was in front of you"

[–] vastuntitled 11 years ago

bill crank-calling coach, and subsequent scenes

[–] FooserX 11 years ago

lol yah those were good.

I LOL last night when Ken told the guidance counselor that he thought he was gay, and was okay telling the counselor because he was gay too.
