Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 25, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2021 You could fill a whole thread with jokes from Porridge but.... https://www.facebook.com/classictvmoments/videos/1736707743029252/?t=144 Quote
Paid Members garynysmon Posted January 25, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) "Stops 'em attacking women and keeps me in wafers." I've replayed this an inappropriate number of times over the years. Edited January 25, 2021 by garynysmon Quote

Funny, short, fitting with both characters and their relationship. Wonderful stuff. There's absolutely tons in The Office. It's such a great re-watchable show as theres so many jokes, you can miss some until your, like, third watch. One of my favourites: Michael: "What's everyone laughing at?" Oscar: "You had to be there." Michael: "Ah! Geography joke!" Quote

I've seen them a bunch of times and only on this most recent rewatch did it click with me the joke with Robert California in this clip Quote

The another really good joke in the Mr Softytop episode where he’s got a customer for the videos (skip to 9:25) “Look Dad, I got sauce!” “So have I son” Quote
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted January 26, 2021 Moderators Posted January 26, 2021 I've been rewatching The Office too, and it's incredible how densely packed with gags it is. My three all-time favourites are when Dwight accidentally calls Phyllis "phallus" after she gets flashed, and these two bits. Quote
Paid Members garynysmon Posted January 26, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 26, 2021 The American Office is shite. Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 26, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 26, 2021 I've never watched either of The Offices but the American one doesn't have Ricky Gervais and therefore wins by a landslide. Quote
theringmaster Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Porridge When some items go missing from their cells he stands up at dinner time and says "Everyone, i regret to inform you there is a thieve among us" Classic, get me every time Quote
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 26, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 26, 2021 Worth remembering that Porridge was voted best British sitcom of all time when we ran our poll back in the day. Still the case. Quote
Abe_Knuckleball_Schwartz Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 Another one from The Sopranos Chris: Allegra? Isn't that a cold medicine? Paulie: It means happiness in Italian Chris: What the fuck does that have to do with cold medicine? Quote

There are dozens of examples of how utterly perfect he was but for whatever reason, this one set me off for a good five minutes the first time I saw it yet it’s rarely seen in any compilation videos. You need to know the character to fully appreciate it but Jesus, it still gets me: Edited January 30, 2021 by Frankie Crisp Quote

You need to know the character to fully appreciate it but Jesus, it still gets me: Hes one of the all time greats, and aware this is becoming an Office thread, but my favourite bit with Creed is when Ryan convinces him he's set up a blog for him and it's just a word doc with the address at the top. It was a real thing apparently, some bits here and they've absolutely nailed what he would've written. https://theoffice.fandom.com/wiki/Creed_Thoughts Quote
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted February 2, 2021 Moderators Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) Got to the last season of The Office in my rewatch, and I was completely blindsided by this bit at 20-43 seconds in the clip, where Toby is enjoying Movember.
