Live long and Prosper



According to this article the Primetime Emmy Awards will celebrate some of TV's most memorable lines from the past six decades in honor of the ceremony's 60th anniversary.The lines, which may include "Good night, John Boy" or "Live long and prosper," will be recited by such TV stars as Alec Baldwin, William Baldwin, Ricky Gervais, Kelsey Grammer, Heidi Klum, Denis Leary, Helen Mirren, Jeremy Piven, Doris Roberts, William Shatner, James Spader and Donald Trump during the ceremony, which airs from 8-11 p.m. Sept. 21 on ABC


This got me to thinking about great lines of days gone by. Here are a few of my favorites:

  • Bang, Zoom, to the moon Alice!! [Ralph - Honeymooners]
  • Live long and propser! [Spock - Star Trek]
  • Wilmaaaaaa! [Fred - Flintstones]
  • This is the big one! I’m coming Elizabeth. [Fred - Sanford & Son]
  • Norm! [All - Cheers]
  • Sock it it me! [All - Laugh In]
  • Heeeey! [Fonzie - Happy Days]
  • What you talkin’ about Willis [Arnold - Different Strokes]
  • Engage [Picard - Star Trek TNG]
  • Up your nose with a rubber hose. [Vinne Barberino - Welcome back Kotter]
