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!
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?
Good luck storming the castle!
What's the difference between a tagline and a catchphrase?
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.
I think it was on a poster in his office....or was that "I Want to Believe"?
Yeah, the poster said, "I Want to Believe" with a picture of a UFO.
Oh. I always thought of a catch phrase as a phrase from the show (V.O./narration or a line of dialogue) that made it into people's everyday speech.
Plus sort of what Jesse said. I think. Blame Narrator.
Tagline beats Catchphrase in Thunderdome.
Now
it all makes sense.
