And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

the news-related ones are just (eta: not "just" in a depreciated sense--but TV's acting a different mode for those) records of something that happened, not something designed for TV.

Yes -- there's a difference between "TV catch phrase" and "famous thing said on TV." Unless audiences were expecting Nixon to come back and say "I'm not a crook" again next week, it doesn't count.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Bon voyage, MsBelle!

MSBELLE! Safe travels, and smooth getting acquainted with your very lucky son!

Which is why we fear you.

Danger, Will Robinson.

I have to admit--when I went into Orange County for work a lot, I said "Welcome to the OC, bitch!" every time I crossed the county line.

For lo, I am a loser.

I'd also disqualify:

"Space, the final frontier ..." (Capt. Kirk, "Star Trek")

on the basis of it was in the opening VO, and not technically a line from the show.

Same goes for:

"The truth is out there" (Fox Mulder, "The X-Files")

It's a tagline, not a catchphrase!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I guess the question is, if other people use it as a catchphrase, but it wasn't a catchphrase on the show, or speech, or whatever, is that what they're counting? Must be.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Good luck storming the castle!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Tagline beats Catchphrase in Thunderdome.
