Dr. Huxtable says ur up.  Serendipity with Cosby on the Late Show?

(btw, his follow on tag line to that was "and I can make another one just like you")

He also used it in one of his many stand-up monologues and recordings.  Been a big fan of his humor since he first appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show with his first routine called "Noah and The Lord."  Still a classic laugh riot.  Another classic was "The Chicken Heart That Ate New York City."

I also remember his bit on playing football, and how everytime his team got the ball it seemed to always be "third and forty-seven!"  :siderofl:

Hmmm... Another TeeVee quotes, eh? ...

"Mom always says not to play ball in the house!"

Rating: Hard, but I've got one that a little easier to post if ppl are stumped, and a giveaway one after that!

Instead of a hint, I decided on more quotes, because I love them. Not these quotes in particular, but I love the show. If we need actual hints then I'll be back!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"See Vera? Dress yourself up, you get taken out somewhere fun."

P1: "Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killin'?"
P2: "Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps."

"You wanna explain to me exactly why you got yourself all corpsified and mailed to me?"

P1: "Well, I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'."
P2: "No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking."

"Also, I can kill you with my brain."

P1: "I'm confused..."
P2: "You're asking yourself, if I've got the security codes, why don't I go in, grab it for myself. "
P1: "No, actually... I was wondering... WHAT'S SHE DOING ON THIS SHIP? Didn't she try to kill us?"
P2: "Please. Nobody died last time."

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

There's really not a ton of killing in the show, it's just that most of these quotes have to do with killing. I just realized that...

^^ Oops, I guess there's a little hint after all. ;D

I hope that is/was it, cuz even after all those quotes I'm still clueless....

(Obviously I've never seen this TeeVee show?...)

All_right, let's see...

This show has a good-sized fan base. Some of the fans are truly fanatical. They call themselves "Browncoats".

Regardless of how much people liked the show, it only lasted one season.

There was a movie.

(I'm the worst hinter)

Well I never saw the show, because I didn't get that channel at the time! (But I've seen it in reruns a few times since I started getting that channel, and I DID see the movie....)

That'd be Firefly, right??
