sorry...I like it.

What is that from? I can hear him saying that but I can't recall what episode it's from.

Travels With Martin

although I might've misquoted in some way.

I don't think you did.

"And on our anniversery, too!" ("Bla-Z-boy")

by **CatNamedRudy** » Thu Jan 24, 2008 8:26 pm

My favorite one from Bla-Z-Boy is

You take the one thing in this apartment that I care about and HEAVE it out into the street!

I just love the way he says "HEAVE!"

Bla-Z-Boy has a lot of great Martin lines.

That was an accident. THIS IS MALICIOUS!

I love his exclamations in Room Service...

"You didn't say she was coming here!" and so on and finally as he and Daphne run his crane clutters and his shout "Leave it!"

The whole scene in the coffee shop is great.

Niles: Hey, Dad. Um, taking Eddie for a walk?
Martin: Yeah, I was afraid if I left him home, Frasier would set him
on fire and throw him off the balcony.

AND

Martin: Well, I got my coffee, nothing fancy. But if you don't like
it, you're welcome to set it on fire and throw it off the
balcony.

Mine is quite simply: "Thank you, Frasier. For... well, you know."

Just fantastic!

Thanks for making me get all teary eyed right before I have to drive home Agides!

It has that effect on me, which is why it's my favourite (and also why it took me some time to post it!).

I like this bit from Head Game:

Daphne (To Niles): Yes. I'm starting to think I should spend an hour or two on the couch with you.
Martin: Are you kidding? With Niles, it'd only take two minutes!

A further bit is from Good Grief when Niles tells Marty that Frasier has likely reached "Bargaining"...

"I said to God that if I ever made it, I wouldn't drink Ballentine's any more."
"But Dad, you still drink Ballentine's."
"Not from bottles, baby."

Not to be nitpicky, but it's "I'll never drink another bottle of Ballantine's". Otherwise, it's not funny.

I hate it when that happens. My misquoting.

I saw one recently, don't remember the episode, but it had to do with the odds of Niles successfully catching a quarter he was flipping. When Niles flipped it, he hit himself in the face and fell over. It was great!

In Someone to Watch Over Me

Fraiser: "when did she find the time to put that scarf in my brief case I only had it out of my sight when I was in the barber's chair"

Martin: "well that would have only given her 15 seconds".

In The Two Mrs Cranes:

Clive: "What do you do Mr Crane"

Martin: "I'm an astronaut"!!!!!

"A couple more days like this and he's going to be in a beloved Seattle institution."

"Oh, we took the dogs to this park near Bonnie's, and I knew there'd be a little sizing each other up and everything. But this poodle of hers, Lady - which she ain't! - walks right up to Eddie, knocks him over and then sits her big French butt right on his head."

Also, in Shutout in Seattle...after seeing Niles and his girlfriend at Niles' saying wistfully..."You always want your kids to have more than you had."

But this poodle of hers, Lady - which she ain't!

This one from Bad Dog always makes me laugh.

Well, don't worry about it. We all get obsessed sometimes. The important thing is to drop it before you start yakking on and on to someone who doesn't give a rats ass.

Your mother always knew just what to say to cheer me up. 'So what if the trophy says Baking instead of Baseball, Marty?
Catcher's mitts or oven mitts, they're our little champions.'

"Sex is between you and the person you're doing it to!"

Guess Who's Coming to Breakfast?

"Dad, don't you believe in second chances?"
"Yeah and then we had Niles."

Remembered this bit when watching "An Affair To Forget" tonight:

Frasier: Dad! Dad! I have to talk to you about Niles. I got a call on the show today from a German woman whose husband is a fencing instructor who she suspects is having an affair with his wealthy new client.

Martin: And?

Frasier: Don't you find that the least bit incriminating?

Martin: No, I find it a coincidence. Seattle's a big city, I'm sure there's a bunch of German fencing instructors, each one with dozens of students.

Frasier: Yes, but are they wealthy students?

Martin: No, they're inner-city kids trying to work their way out of the ghetto with nothing but a foil and a dream.

The scene from "Roz's Turn" where Roz is preparing a demo for her proposed radio show:

Roz: "We're here with Martin and we're talking about first dates. Martin, tell me about some of the tricks you use to impress women"
Martin: "Hmmm. Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you, Roz, but I really don't know any tricks. When a woman agrees to go out with me I'm not there to impress her or play cool. I'm there because I wan't to know her -you know, what she thinks, what she likes. So that if I'm lucky enough to get another date I can plan something that I know she'd like to do. I guess I'm just old-fashioned or something, but - I think you should treat a woman like a queen."
Roz and Daphne sigh. Niles and Frasier look on in disbelief.
Martin: "Bow to the master boys. Bow to the master."
:wink:
