My favorite bit of Charlie illiteracy comes from the speech he wrote for Dennis in The Gang Runs For Office; “Hello fellow American. This you should vote me. I leave power good. Thank you. Thank you. If you vote me I’m hot. What? Taxes they’ll be lower son. The democratic vote for me is right thing to do Philadelphia. So do.” Just remembered how much I love that episode.
Because I just re-watched “Hundred Dollar Baby”: “I will eat your babies, BITCH!”
Ah, Sweet Dee.
Just based on the commercials for the new season the Charile’s whole “Kitten Mittens” infomercial should be here.

Pepe Silvia, Pepe Silvia. I look in the mail, and this whole box is Pepe Silvia! So I say to myself, “I gotta find this guy!” I gotta go up to his office and put his mail in the guy’s goddamn hands! Otherwise, he’s never going to get it and he’s going to keep coming back down here. So I go up to Pepe’s office and what do I find out, Mac? What do I find out?! There is no Pepe Silvia. The man does not exist, okay? So I decide, “Oh shit buddy, I gotta dig a little deeper.” There’s no Pepe Silvia? You gotta be kidding me! I got boxes full of Pepe! Alright. So I start marchin’ my way down to Carol in HR and I knock on her door and I say, “Carol! Carol! I gotta talk to you about Pepe.” And when I open the door what do I find? There’s not a single goddamn desk in that office! There…is…no…Carol in HR. Mac, half the employees in this building have been made up. This office is a goddamn Ghost Town! |
Okay, Charlie, I’m gonna have to stop you right there. Not only do all of these people exist, but they have been asking for their mail on a daily basis! It’s all they’re talking about up there!

I’ve only just started watching this in the last month but already the quotes have been on high rotation. Especially the song in “Charlie Goes America All Over Everybody’s Ass.”
Color me another initiate into the fandom, I just watched the first five episodes of seasone one on HULU, and then instantly put the series in my Netflix queue. I love it.
Quick question, do they bleep out the curse words on FX? 'Cause this show has a surprising amount of profanity for a basic cable joint.
No, the only thing they bleep out is the F Bomb. Everything else is good to go.
Dee: You know what, I gotta be honest with you, I think these supplements are doing a great job on their own, you know what I mean? I got tons of energy, my heart rate’s up, things are going great…
Dennis: Absolutely. I feel great too. Look how vascular I am, look at how my veins are poppin’.
Dee: Holy Shit.
Dennis: Yeah, I look good AND I feel good.
Dee: I feel good too apart from the recent bounds of explosive diarrhea.
Dennis: Oh. You’ve been having diarrhea?
Dee: Oh God, all over the place.
Dennis: Really? Well you know what that is, that’s probably your body flushing out all the toxins.
Dee: You think so?
Dennis: I do think so yeah, yeah. I on the other hand have not taken a shit in days.
Dee: Days?
Dennis: Days.
Dee: That doesn’t sound good.
Dennis: Oh, no it’s good. My body’s working at 100% efficiency. Yeah, my body is absorbing every single nutrient and it’s not wasting a single thing.
Dee: Your body is taking its job very seriously.
Dennis: My body’s doing its job like it’s never done it before.
Mac & Charlie Die
The random court guy restating what Charlie said,
“I’m going to rape you so hard the room will stink.” Is this correct?
Charlie: Yes
Frank: You’re giving all my money to that jerkoff?
Lawyer: You know Mr Reynolds I’m reading what’s on the will.
Sweet Dee: Why are you giving all the money to him?
Laywer: I’m not giving any money to anyone. I’m just reading this will.
That whole scene might be my favorite one in Sunny, has me rolling anytime I watch it.
ETA: THIS.

I just learned that Glen Howerton completely improvised that speech. That’s the reason you can see Charlie Day laughing as he films it.
Nightman Cometh:
Charlie: “I will smack your face…off your face!!”
It’s Charlie’s pent up rage and the fact he’s used every other noun with “smack” throughout the episode that makes this line great.
also, in The Gang Solves the North Korea Crisis after Dee does her Rosie Perez impression in front of Mac and Frank, there’s like 5 seconds of silence, then Mac slaps down his clipboard with the straightest look on his face and goes “What the hell was that?”, its the delivery that gets me rolling every time.
Just finished season two, now three is on top of my Netflix queue. God I love this show.
I’ve been rewatching them all over the last week- some I’ve seen three or four times. They never, ever get old. Easily the funniest thing on TV.
Charlie alone will make these worth re-watching. Can’t get enough of that guy.
It’s funny how shows like this slip past you. There’s so much out there that I know I’ve missed and I’d probably like, but seldom do I let good comedy fall through the cracks. This has been a joy to discover.
I thought my roommate was gonna choke to death when the gang asked the priest if he wanted to revenge-teabag Dennis. Beer-through-the-nose and everything.
One of my favourite little moments is when they do the next top model contest. Not only is Dennis tearing Frank a new one, which is funny on it’s own, but Mac’s face never fails to crack me up.
Watched “Mac is a Serial Killer” last night. Been a while since I’ve seen it…holy crap. When they are chasing the waitress and Dee’s shoes keep squeeking. Or Charlie and his re-telling of Law and Order episodes. So damned funny. I wish they would do another internet episode.
Charlie - Let me finish my story
Dennis - Charlie, re-telling the plots of Law and Order episodes is not a story
or
Is that Fraggle Rock…Pepper Jack loves Fraggle Rock.
Season 2 is lightning in a bottle. “Mac Bangs Dennis’s” Mom is Shakespearean in its plotting.
Love it when Dennis tries to pick up the Napoleon Dynamite grandma.
Dennis: It probably gets lonely though, every once in a while, watching TV out here by yourself…
Mac’s Mom: [snorting chuckle]
Dennis: every once in a while you probably want a man, right? Someone to fulfill your desires?
Mac’s Mom: oh… Not interested.
Dennis: Don’t fight it Mrs. Mac.. Why don’t we go inside and have a little fun?
Mac’s Mom: Don’t find you attractive.
Dennis:…what?
Mac’s Mom: I think you’re an ugly man.
Dennis: You think i’m ugly?
Mac’s mom: Yeah.
Dennis: I’m not ugly, you’re ugly!
Mac’s mom: Yeah.

Two things that also never fail to kill me in that episode: (1) Dee rudely asking the Waitress to step out of the car so she can take Charlie’s call, and (2) Dennis’ knowing and understanding nod as he watches Mac walk out his mom’s house.
Also,

It just falls off because that’s what you do, Dennis Reynolds - you like to have sex with old people! And you said that you loved me! You said “I love you”, and so I thought “Okay, well, I love you too”! How do you show love? You go and have sex with old people! So that’s what I did! |
