This constant exposure leads to phrases entering into popular culture. Can you name the shows these came from (all tv shows, tho' one was a tv spin off from a movie) 1)"Mom always said don't play ball in the house" 2)"Yadda, Yadda, Yadda" 3)"VITAME ATAVEGAMIN" 4)"Uh-oh, choppers" 5)"That's all folks" (NB none of the quotes contain the name of any characters to give it away) Once all 5 are named correctly I will turn it over to the community.... Rea-dy, Se-et, GO! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

Cup_of_Lifenoodles Fish Guru Posts: 2755 Kudos: 1957 Votes: 30 Registered: 09-Sep-2004	Well, to be perfectly honest, I did pass up the Seinfeld one (for which I am ashamed), not to mention the Lucy quote, as I am not exactly a huge fan.

wish-ga Mega Fish Dial 1800-Positive-Posts Posts: 1198 Kudos: 640 Registered: 07-Aug-2001	Gee I know WHO but darned if I know the name of which of her movie's. They kinda blend as one really (as an aside I read Shirley Temple's biography... worth a look if you can find the title on amazon and see if it is in your library catalogue) If the name of the movie isn't "Alphabet Soup" then I don't know... is that even a name of a movie. I will not resort to googling! Anyone? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~

fish patty Fish Addict Posts: 539 Kudos: 223 Votes: 255 Registered: 04-Oct-2006	Ummmmm Yeah.....anyone?? I don't know either wish-ga! I was just going to settle for "movie"............ "Shirley temple." Did I need to know the name too?? Sorry I don't think it was Alphabet Soup though. That doesn't sound like a movie for back then & I don't even think Alphabet Soup was invented back then.

fish patty Fish Addict Posts: 539 Kudos: 223 Votes: 255 Registered: 04-Oct-2006	Ok.............. since I brought the subject up, I took it upon myself to look up the movie. This is what I found: Not just The Good Ship Lollipop... Most people know of Shirley Temple because she sang "On the Good Ship Lollipop" more than 60 years ago in the film "Bright Eyes", when she was six years old, in 1934. But there it lots more to Shirley Temple than just "On the Good Ship Lollipop". Ok........... now that that's done with.............NEXT!?

The character in question who uttered the line being Tattoo, played by Herve Villechaise, whose later years were somewhat tragic.

Callatya Moderator The girl's got crabs! Posts: 9662 Kudos: 5261 Registered: 16-Sep-2001	A non-fruit powdered drink? Bugger. I want to bounce around and say Chocolate Quik, but surely not. Although, perhaps something milk based? For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett
