What is the funniest line so far?


I think its either in the second episode when Martha is practicing her costco sales pitch and Chip calls her a maniac or when Eddie is talking about dying in a creek.

The Eddie dying in a creek one was pretty damn good. There was another fantastic one in the finale from Dale, trying to act like he was an irate customer when speaking with Chip: "I found a dead sea turtle in my curly fries."

Also, I think Christine's "You look like a gypsy on your way to some gypsy dance!" may have been the precise moment I fell in love with the show.

God dammit Martha that's a coyote! (I'm paraphrasing but God that scene was hilarious)

Martha. "Cowboys" episode. In the desert after repeated snake bites. "He really has it out for me."

reply

"Reckon, I'll ride out West, hold me up a train, get my ass all shot up... die in a creek somewhere."

- Eddie

When Chip asks Martha to bring a picture to the hospital of when he and Dale were still cute, and Martha deadpans: "now how far back would that be?" The look Chip gives her is priceless.

His response is great... "The 70's.. the early, 70's.."

Don't touch that, you'll catch a diabete!

You see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps, Larry?!

Chip: How many bathrooms you got here?

Niece: 3

Chip: I'm gonna need 2 of 'em.

Nieces: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

My favorite line(s).

"Well, make something up!" (RG)

From the first or second episode: Martha is in the bathroom at chip's mom's house and Christine says, "Martha are you in there? It's me Christine... Mrs. Baskets" then Martha says, "Hi Mrs. Baskets", and then Lois Anderson says, "oh you KNOW me????"

reply

For me the funniest scene was when Chip was hugged by the hooker and Martha said to herself, "ah, he never has any cash".

reply

Dale: "There's lady on the girls team, there's a lady on the girls team"

reply

I fall on the floor laughting when Dale says: "Not only am I the Dean, I'm a student... and I'm also the janitor"
