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

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.
With arm movements?

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.

What's the difference between a tagline and a catchphrase?

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.

I think to be a catchphrase, it has to be an actual spoken line from the show. "The truth is out there" was text on the screen at the end of the opening credits -- it wasn't something Mulder went around saying to people.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I think it was on a poster in his office....or was that "I Want to Believe"?
