Iconic TV quotes working their way into our everyday lexicon is usually the hallmark of great writing — or at the very least, memorable writing. It’s something that writers don’t necessarily set out to do, but a catchphrase can end up becoming a cultural touchstone for an entire series. With this in mind, @fasc1nate recently asked the timeline, “Without saying its name, what is a TV show that can be instantly recognized based on one quote?”
A scroll down the replies quickly became a little pop quiz of television quotes. But since most of these lines are so recognizable, the quiz was mostly on easy mode.
