mmecorday January 28, 2019 Share January 28, 2019 I don't like the Mammy Watkins episode, but there are some really funny moments in it. Like when Blanche just assumes Mammy wants Big Daddy's Bible and she says, "No thanks, I don't drink." I love the way Dorothy intones "Mammy Eisenhower," followed by, "I think only the Nixon kids were allowed to call her that." 1 5 Link to comment

Rose says:" No, I just finished milking the cows I keep in my closet. I'm sorry, with just 3 hours sleep I can be as bitchy as you." On 6/8/2018 at 10:17 AM, Mabinogia said: That is one of my all time favorites. I love those little moments when Rose shows her bitchy side. Probably because she's usually so sweet and naïve, that it's sometimes hard for the others to know if she's being sarcastic or not. And isn't this the very basis for Bea Aurthur not getting along well with Betty White? Bea couldn't tell if Betty White was really that sweet and easy going, or if it was just a put on. 1 Link to comment

MaggieG March 12, 2019 Share March 12, 2019 I know Uncle Angelo wasn't everyone's favorite but he did have a few good lines. During the Hurricane/Save the Mckinley lighthouse episode Sophia gets in a fight with Dorothy and goes to Angelo's apartment: "Angelo, I'm in trouble." "Then the boy will marry you!" There was also the Dorothy and Stan are slumlords episode when Angelo is interviewed on tv and they're talking about the bug problem. I can't remember the exact line but he says the "bugs appear to be laughing at us" after being sprayed with bug spray. 1 5 Link to comment
One Tough Cookie March 16, 2019 Share March 16, 2019 Clayton, Blanche's gay brother visits. Sophia opens her mouth in all probability to say something truly offensive and Dorothy puts her arms around her and says: "Sometimes I just love to hug my Mommy!" 2 8 Link to comment

Bea couldn't tell if Betty White was really that sweet and easy going, or if it was just a put on. From what I've heard, it was mostly that Bea felt that Betty was an annoying attention whore, and that her interactions with the audience during filming were inappropriate. But that certainly could have been an underlying factor. Link to comment

Eri June 24, 2019 Share June 24, 2019 (edited) One funny quote that always comes to mind is the John Quinn episode: John: Hello, John Quinn. Rose: Hello, I'm Rose, Blanche's roommate. Won't you come in? John: Uh, could you give me a hand? Rose: Sure! *claps* It cracks me up every time. Edited June 24, 2019 by Eri 3 1 Link to comment

One Tough Cookie December 2, 2019 Share December 2, 2019 It's not a quote but the second funniest sight gag on TV {Carol Burnett as Scarlet O'Hara is my absolute first}, but the episode"The Actor" when Blanche's inflatable bra deflates and watching Rue trying not to lose it makes me lose it.

BookThief December 3, 2019 Share December 3, 2019 Also not a quote, but I always enjoy the moment when the girls are sitting and looking at the Christmas tree and Rose sings the first line of The First Noel and Blanche and Dorothy are just about to join it when Rose starts off with another story. Just them taking a breath to join in the singing and then getting Story Blocked always amuses me even though it's such a small thing. 4 Link to comment
truthaboutluv December 3, 2019 Share December 3, 2019 (edited) Speaking of The Actor episode, this exchange always cracks me up. Man, Bea was a master at those one liners. Dorothy: "It's kind of hard to stay mad at the guy. I don't know, there was something special about him. He made me feel beautiful". Blanche: "He made me feel young". Rose: "He made me feel smart". *beat* Dorothy: "God, what an actor". Edited December 3, 2019 by truthaboutluv 3 4 Link to comment

truthaboutluv December 3, 2019 Share December 3, 2019 And this whole exchange in the Mary Had a Little Lamb episode (that I know isn't many people's favorite) always cracks me up. Dorothy: "Ma, what does Fred's dog have to do with this?" Sophia: "It's a known fact that dogs take after their masters" Dorothy: "Oh come on ma, that's ridiculous" Sophia: "Oh yeah, then why does your brother Phil's poodle like running around on its hind legs wearing a pink tutu?"
