Mine is on the Cosby Show when Olivia is talking about having 6 children and Bill Cosby asks her their names and she says,

One Olivia
Two Olivia
Three Olivia
Four Olivia
Five Olivia
Six Olivia

I just love the Cosby Show!!
 
I LOVE "Seinfeld".... I once saw the woman who played Jason Alexander's mother on the show say that one time during a taping of one of the episodes, Jason Alexander ad-libbed, and she and the entire studio audience laughed for literally a half hour before they could pull themselves together to finish taping the episode :p So now when I see that particular episode, I crack up, knowing what was behind the filming of it. lol

Here's the episode:

"George's" mother finds George "treating his body like it was an amusement park!". She somehow falls down or something and ends up in the hospital in traction. He goes to visit her, and while he's there, the woman in the next bed is having a sponge bath by the nurse. They are behind a curtain so you only see their silouettes... But he hears them too, as the nurse undresses the woman and the woman verbally is enjoying the sponge bath...(its all very innocent, but George's imagination is getting the best of him! LOL)...

George's mother starts to say she's hungry and she doesn't like the hospital food, so she asks George to go get her a sandwich...pastrami, I think....lol.... But George does NOT want to leave because he's enjoying hearing the sponge bath too much....lol.... so as his mother begins to whine, saying "Georrrrggge...I'm hungry nowwwwww...." (and here is the ad-lib), he distractedly sticks his hand into his pants pocket, all the while not taking his eyes off the curtain, and tosses a pack of Tic Tacs at her and says "here! have a tic tac!!".

ROFL!

Not sure if this is translating well, or if I did a good job explaining it, but if you've ever seen this episode, its a very funny scene! :P
 
but the one that came to mind first is the Lucy Grape fight in Italy!
 
The last episode of "Newhart" where his wife from "The Bob Newhart Show" shows up. There was absolutely no indication they were going to do that - it was such a hilarious surprise and sort of a spoof on the whole "Dallas" dream thing.
 

About a thousand years ago, I saw a show that was showcasing funny foreign ads. They had this once japanese ad where a bunch of kids were enjoying this huge communal bath, playing splashing, etc.. They cut to one of the kids and you saw a bunch of bubbles coming up around him, and the next scene was where all the kids had moved to the other side of the bath house looking at the 'gassy' child with disdain.

I still remember this to the day... :D:D:D
 
Many years ago, on Saturday Night Live, Billy Crystal was portraying Sammy Davis Jr. on a rendition of "Password". He was trying to give clues to the word BAGEL to one of the SNL cast members (a guy - can't remember his name) and the SNL guy was playing kind of a foreigner.

No matter what clue Billy Crystal gave him, he couldn't get it and it was HYSTERICAL!

Sometimes they play it over again on a SNL anniversary show.

Anybody remember that one?
 
From Friends....
The gang is sitting around talking about the most romantic song. Pheobe comes out with "The one that Elton John wrote for the guy from Whos The Boss"(or maybe she says taxi, I forget) Then she sings...Hold me close young Tony Danza(Tiny Dancer). I still LOL when I think of it!
 
I love the Seinfeld episode that Sea Spray mentioned. I'm sitting here chuckling at my desk reading her recap. So many Seinfeld episodes make me laugh, I love the one where Jerry and Elaine are at the dinner party of an old relative and Jerry makes some comment about ponies, which has the old relative in a snit. She then dies, and Elaine is after her apartment. Another Seinfeld episode I love is when they all go over to India for a wedding, except the whole episode plays backwards.

On I Love Lucy, the episode with Lucy & Ethel in the candy factory always makes me laugh.

The Designing Women episode where they go to a spa and they get in a mud fight is pretty funny too.

The Golden Girls, I love the episode where they are mistaken for prostitutes and thrown in jail. :)
 
On the Mary Tyler Moore show when Chuckles the clown dresses up like a peanut and gets trampled by an elephant. The aftermath still makes me laugh hysterically.
 
My favorite TV funny moment was when Steve Allen was doing his sportscaster sketch and he couldn't stop laughing.....his hair was slicked down and when he saw himself on the monitor he just lost it. A hilarious moment.
 
I like the Seinfeld where George was at a party, he saw smoke or fire and he starts screaming "FIRE!" and pushes the kids and elderly woman out of the way so he can get out. :D

There was an episode on Friends that was really funny but I have never seen it in reruns. Let me know if you remember it. I don't remember if it was a flashback or a "what if" type episode but it's where Monica was "fat Monica" and she was dancing to Brick House (I think that was the song). Watching her dance was so funny!
 
My sisters and I love the "Laverne and Shirley" episode where they are running a diner. Laverne is the cook, and Shirley is the waitress. Laverne keeps saying "Betty, pick up please!" into the microphone, and Shirley keeps shouting "My name is not Betty!" Then, Laverne spills a ton of pancake batter on the grill and announces "Lucky, lucky, for the next 15 minutes, everything comes with pancakes". The patrons all start chanting "Betty, Betty, Betty..."
That one cracks me up!!!:D :D :D :D

Oh, yeah! I remember that. I think it ran during the credits after the "What If" episode. It was hilarious!
 
A few of my favorites.

The Gone with the Wind curtain dress spoof done by Carol Burnett. I love to see it repeated on specials sometimes.

The SNL skit with Dana Carver as the Church Lady interviewing Jim & Tammy Baker after the scandel. I don't know who played Jim & Tammy but they were all great.
 
I love the Jeopardy skits on SNL! Especially the ones w/ "Sean Connery". LOL! Those crack me up!
 
CamColt...I totally love that episode of Friends....actually I love all Friends episodes...Phoebe and Joey are my favorites! :smooth:
 
The friends episode where chandler is in teh Blackout and the model asks him if he wants gum and he say no, but then later he says

"On second thought, gum would be perfection"
 
I have lots, but I've just added a new one - last night on "8 Simple Rules", Tom Poston starred as an old guy living in Florida. He was hanging out with the son, Rory. Cate and Paul said they wanted to meet his parents first - they didn't know he was an old guy. When asked if his parents could be met, he responded with "Do you have an Ouija board?" DH and I both howled. :D
